Yea it is possible that the movie is for NH fans and the manga for NS, however the movie is stated as canon i believe.
Tbh i find it lame if they make this movie the part that NH becomes canon for the last manga chapter, there is only one reason for it and thats that there was no NH in the manga to begin with so he kishi had to make an movie to make NH canon in the end bit lame in my eyes.
But just like RTN Everyone thought NH was canon there too so Hey everything can happen. But for me one who is totally not NH fan i have a bad feeling about the last chapter of the manga.
Even if kishi made the movie to add more development for NH (which is way late) that doesnt mean the movie is setting them up to be canon. I believe,as do others, that this movie is to resolve Hinata's feelings. I do think that Naruto and Sakura are together which is why we havent seen Sakura, becasuse she's always going to be with Naruto.
Can someone explain to me why she even "loves Naruto?". So, she saw a random kid being ignored by the whole village and working hard to become stronger. Those reasons alone, made her fall in love with him? How does that work? did she fall in love with him out of pity? what is it?
She's so damn strange
I always thought that at first it was admiration that she had for him. Hinata loved how he stood up for himself when everyone else thought he was dirt. Hinata was treated the same way but didnt have the strength to stand up for herself like Naruto did, and it turned into romantic feelings as the years went on, but thats just my opinion.
