NH fans said Hinata is like Minato because he always watch over kushina from afar, when she was beat up by that chunnin shinobi in a place there a lot sakura trees minato was watching just like when naruto suffering from his loneliness hinata was there watch him, and when kushina was taken by shinobi of kumogakure minato was there to rescue her when no other shinobi from konoha come, just like when naruto was lose and almost captured by pain hinata was the one who rescue him when no other shinobi comes, even sakura. Thats why they say NH parallel with MK, not NS.
If its cannon then why on gaiden chapter 8 [correct me if i wrong], when naruto was thinking about his past, iruka was the first person there not hinata?. Isn't in the the last hinata was the first person before iruka who was there for him?
Of course, what those idiot extremist fans choose to ignore is that...
1.) Minato didn't "watch Kushina from afar" because he was "too shy". He was never portrayed as "shy". Quiet, sure, but not because he was afraid to say anything.
2.) Minato was a natural genius who (with help from Kushina sometimes) was able to create things like the Rasengan, the Hiraishin, and the Shiki Fuin. All Hinata "created" were only very slight variations of the basic Jyuken. Simply using the 64 palms defensively rather than offensively (rather than just using the Kaiten), and just using more chakra in her hands and looking like lion heads...ooohhhh, so awesome. On the other side, you got Neji creating the Air Palm, which is something that goes against the traditional Jyuken style by being a ranged attack.
3.) Minato was charismatic and a natural leader as well as powerful. This is why he became Hokage at a young age, much like Hiruzen before him. I think the way Hinata is displayed throughout the story explains itself.
4.) Minato still worked hard to get to where he was. He wasn't just handed his strength and abilities nor his love interest. Just look at The Last for Hinata.
5.) Minato, as painful as it was to do, was willing to make sacrifices (himself and others) to protect the village, because he couldn't ask someone else to sacrifice something if he wasn't willing to do so himself, which is why he chose Naruto to be made Kurama's new Jinchuriki in order to save Konoha. I highly doubt Hinata could ever do anything remotely similar. She would no doubt base all her major decisions around "Naruto-kun" and never be able to willingly sacrifice Boruto or Himawari to become Jinchuriki, or anything without Naruto saying it was okay first. She's just a doormat.
6.) When it came to Kushina being kidnapped by Kumo, other shinobi DID come, but no one could figure out where she was taken, IIRC. Minato just happened to be the only one to notice her strands of hair and took the initiative to find her as quickly as possible.
When it came to Pain, "nobody came" for Naruto not because they didn't care, but because not only did Naruto tell them not to interfere, but they also knew they would only get in the way (given a bunch of them were injured or exhausted) and make things worse and, surprise surprise, Hinata does just that - gets in the way and makes things worse by "getting killed" (without doing anything of importance except give what is basically a deathbed confessional), pissing Naruto off (which he would have reacted the same way no matter who did it), and almost releasing Kurama, and that would have made all the efforts of protecting the village and its people (especially by Tsunade) pointless, and who knows what other damage would've done as a result. It was only due to convenient seal hax that that didn't happen.
7.) Minato is not afraid to stand up to Kushina if it's important. Hinata would never be able to speak up against Naruto unless pushed to the absolute brink. Heck, the whole "submissive" attitude Minato shows at times is simply the "scary wife" cliche that is seen everywhere, usually (heavily) exaggerated by the husband being an otherwise big / muscular, strong, and/or virtually invincible man.
....feel free to add more, but yeah...Minato and Hinata are nothing alike except for filling the opposite position to Naruto/Kushina.
here watch this maybe this will make you feel better
