That N/H fan said that Kishi is planning something after Hinata's confession I think that fan is wrong. Look at Rock Lee the guy basically confessed his love for Sakura during the forest of death in the chunin exams. Did Sakura gave him an answer after the fight against the sound ninjas??? although she was flatter he felt that way about her she didn't said a word to him because she doesn't feel that way about him. That was 400+ chapters ago. If Kishi left Lee's confession hanging in the air, then he can left another secondary character's confession in the air too I'm talking about you Hinata.
Also judging from 488 there's no doubt Kishi is not planning to give Hinata a response from Naruto due to her confession. 488 its actually the chapter where for the first time Naruto is facing Hinata after her confession and that was exactly 51 chapters ago, the fact that Hinata didn't said a word or the fact that Naruto didn't even looked at her its pretty clear that Kishi has no intention to bring back her confession again. Hinata's confession was done for her character development not so that Naruto returns her feelings period. On another case Sakura's confession will have a conclusion why....because unlike Hinata's feelings for Naruto Sakura's feelings for Naruto plays a key role in the main story, not to mention that she's the heroine.
I doubt this manga will last 200 more chapters leaving me to think that it's already too late in the game for Kishi to even start developing N/H even if he likes the pairing or not.
