The hypocritical fans annoy me myself. But to play the devil's advocate here, it's not like NaruHina has no chance at all. It does. It is a possible pairing now though not as possible as NaruSaku. Again to me it's very clear NaruSaku is a romantic relationship. But most of it's moments are either interrupted or anbigious. So I can understand to some extent why they see it as platonic. However, it's hypocritical to claim the NH hand-holding romantic when the NaruSaku hug is not. Why, you ask? Naruto had an ulterior motive to her hand, Sakura did not when she hugged Naruto. That hypocrisy very much pisses me off.
While Hinata isn't great, she's not exactly kitten. She has some good points. Her understanding, gentleness, kindness, and determination. I like those traits about her. But I can't actually like her character on a whole because of her bland Naruto obsession. Point is, don't call Hinata kitten. You can hate her if you want but calling a character kitten is character bashing. Something this forum tries to avoid.
