The only "drama" would be whatever is manufactured by her base, but otherwise, in a "realistic" scenario, Hinatatas would probably end up with Kiba. Whether it be because she truly moves on or simply because Kiba is the most similar to Naruto and so she simply strings Kiba along and uses him as a substitute for Naruto, I leave to the imagination.
My inner shipper is triggered.
I disagree majorly with this. I don't understand why everyone compares Kiba to Naruto when their similarities are few and far between. They're both mainly extroverted, yes, but he is not remotely similar to Naruto. People really need to quit using pre time skip presets as templates for these characters. What is so wrong with Lee, Chouji, or Shino that they can't be placed with any kunoichi? The pairings might not be the sexiest but Naruto overall isn't just Team Seven and the Uchihas, contrary to the fanon's rabid obsession with them
Lee is the most similar to Naruto and from a writing aspect, LeeHina makes perfect sense and works ridiculously well. THAT is the pairing (besides NaruSaku) that was sitting right there on a silver platter. The Neji tie in, Lee's desire to beat said Hyuuga, his self proclaimed rival (a la Naruto and Sasuke), the taijutsu niche...
Personality wise, it should be obvious that Lee is the best fit for Hinata if we're talking who is MOST similar to Naruto. The "loser" who busted his behind and through hard work, determination, and sheer will became one of the shining stars of Konoha and a splendid shinobi...sound familiar?
Sorry for the mini rant but reading fanfics and seeing the same pairing over and over of KibaHina whenever I come across a NaruSaku tale grates my nerves. Shino, Chouji, and Lee aren't bad guys at all and shouldn't just be tossed to the side like mere annoyances and KibaHina shouldn't just be paired because you need her out of the way.
I might have to come out of retirement and make a NaruSaku fic with a dash of LeeHina. Ugh.
