The anime team knows nothing about the future of the manga, they just don't! the closest Kishi may have been of the anime team was when he was working on the RTN movie, Aside from that, he has nothing to do with the fillers and other things and I doubt that Kishi would tell them who is going to end up with who or what will happen on his manga, it's unprofessional and very risky ... as far as I know, even the editors don't know exactly what will happen in the manga.
For me it was a subtle "allusion" about how NS is always compared to MinaKushi (the "Red-thread of fate" pairing ) and how Naruto tooks Hinata's hand in 615.
"cut the red-thread of fate" and "take your future with your own hands"
maybe just subtly showing their preference in pairings
Wrong my friend, they were referring to NaruSaku no NH.
It has NOTHING to do with Hinata! neji is still telling him to if you want Sakura take it in you're own hands! actually tieing a red thread to each other means nothing. its simple as that.
That's all the anime team were trying to get across.
This how I clearly read that filler.
I may have read too much into it, but that was really my impression when I watched that episode...
I believe you did but I don't blame you for that since the event of chapter 615 is still fresh in our minds
Naruto has said this many times. When Naruto gets reminded of his own words from Neji we got a reaction of Sakura saying ''That a destiny that will never happen'' so its about NaruSaku not NH. Its funny moment because we know now how far NS relationship has come Sakura is a lot more different now and would accept a date from him. I would have agreed with you had there been no reaction scene.
That was the focus point, Neji was telling Naruto if he really want something he should really work hard for it, after all he was the one who though him that people can choose their own destiny and she obviously replied Naruto by telling him that no matter how hard he works he will never get her to love him.
I guess no one notice when I mention in my first post that the one who always says that something will never happen always end up eating their words so in a way I'm glad Naruto never said that NH will never happen.
Also can someone explian me how to multi-Quote on this site, is kind of annoying having to copy paste, copy paste all the time I need to Quote two or more users.
