yes a lot of things.

The very same data book clearly says Hinata is infatuated with Naruto and after seeing the path her character has taken it makes a lot of sense.

[Shadow1275]

I wonder if there's a 4th databook already? If not when will it come out? At the end of the series? lol

lol I think Kishimoto doesn't want to backed into a corner with these pairing wars. The Naru/Hina fans might not be happy with what they would see.

[Sakamaki Izayoi]

That's the point. New abilities/or power-up should be related to her existing skills. Another way it would look out of place...

ALSO

3rd databook character's relationship scheme --Click here to view--

A lot of things changed since 3rd databook publication though..

I found funny when they put "worries about..."
It's kinda funny because you cant say "in love with" and neither "friends or teammate".
What have you done kishi.

But also i dont see an arrow from Naruto pointing to Kakashi and Sakura only on the relations chart on Pain's arc which says "loves".

Last we got was 3.5 but only in Japan. It came out after Hinata's confession, which pissed a lot of fans because Naruto still loves Sakura, according to the updated chart.

Haha, that's right.
The databook was released on Sep 9th 2008... somewhere around ch 415-416. One thing I'm pretty sure about is that naruto's arrow "in love with" still points to Sakura, and no special arrow for Hinata.

Yes it does. But to be honest the path her character took is exactly the same as the one she was walking before.

@Darkrest.

I noticed that too. But those two were the closest on the chart. And It was confirmed in the manga that he loves her which was released post databook.

Also I asked two of my neutral watcher if they think Naruto still loves Sakura. One said yes and the other claimed it was the other way now. That Sakuras in love with Naruto and he has mixed felling about her.

This^ the relationship chart from the minichronicle book (which it was released with chapter 442) shows sage mode Naruto with the arrow towards Sakura" loves" but no arrow from Sakura to Naruto (obviously Kishi isn't going to be that obvious ) However Hinata wasn't even in that chart to begin with (that shows you how important she is to Naruto). And keep in mind this was released AFTER Hinata's confession.

I think it's time to have a 4th Databook !

[HauntedCake]

ye 4th databook please kishi

[TouKen4Life3g]

If I remember, the 3rd databook only shows arrows pointing at Naruto, nothing from him, except maybe between Sasuke. In 3.5, now it's everyone. I must admit, I always find "worries about..." interesting because you would assume that she's just friend with Naruto or teammate. So why a cryptic message? Worrying someone does lead romance and this won't be the first.

Really.. well that's good news then. After finding out that all this time Sakura was doing everything for him his feeling will grow even bigger.

That wouldn't make sense since manga is almost over... we still have war arc (which will end soon) + Sasuke vs Naruto.

EDIT: I dunno if mangakas release databook after the series is over, but it Kishi will do one, I hope to see Naruto and Sakura's huge pics next to one another, and an arrow similar to Minato and Kushina's "husband & wife".

Its really funny. If Sasuke would just kill Itachi and go his own way and not cause interantional disputes and Naruto would be able to take a hint NaruSaku would be official by now.

also NS4L skype?

[FoolishYoungling]

Did Kishimoto write the databook?

Indeed.

Sorry, working.

Did Kishimoto write the databook?

Hard to say. They say yes, some say his editors did it, and some even say his editors did it but under Kishi's guidance. After all, there are quotes from him in there as well as unexplained background for some characters.

I hope kishi did write the databook himself

[FoolishYoungling]

Same, I really hope that the infatuated thing connecting Hinata to Naruto was done by him.

[TouKen4Life3g]

I'll say it's most likely his ideas but editors did the works. Think as the movie. Not his script, but definitely his intention in work. That's how I see it.

I agree, nice to see you here again (even though I dont remember you) but I agree with you ll the way.

People keep complaining that sakura played a little role in this war and hinata is stealing all thr glory, thats just silly, hinata's character is being wrapped up, plus shes hardly even doing anything, ok lets compare the two:

Sakura:

1.She helped heal Gai before the war started.

2.She appeared in the zabuza fight and healed so many ninja in her squad.

3.She found out who the secret imposter that was going around and killing everyone was and defeated him and on top of that made zetsu acknowledged her abilities and how smart she is plus she beat the cra* outta that zetsu

4.She cracked the secret behind the zetsus, with shizuneh (although shizuneh was shown to have done nothing on panel)

5.And she healed kakashi and is now healing other countless shinobi with the rest of her squad.

Now lets move on to hinata:

1.she took over watching out for enemies (for god knows what reason) while neji was recovering.

almost got her a** pulverised

2.she pep talked naruto.

......thats it....THATS IT!!! AND YOU SAY HINATA GOT MORE TIME THAN SAKURA? My apologies but your just messed up.

Hinatas character has been wrapped up, and sakura is permanently in the game, since she's the heroine.

'Nuff said.

Just because YOU'RE satisfied with what's going on doesn't mean me or some others are content with what's going on. She's been barely featured in the war, and she's had little to no panel time in this war also. It's not about Hinata getting more panel time than her because a lot of characters have. It's about her not being prominent during this time while others are.

Naruto's gotten a ton of moments, and so has Sasuke. Two of the main characters. Even Kakashi has gotten quite a nice amount of prominence in this war, but Sakura? Close to nothing. She gets yanked out of the battle only to end up in a tent thinking about Sasuke, she takes out a Zetsu and helps examine him, ends up joining the battle only to get pushed to the side with little to no dialogue. Yeah, that's the heroine for you! I get annoyed when people tell me how I SHOULD feel about how she's being handled or her character. No, I'm not gonna change my stance on it because it's not just in the war where she's been pushed to the side and handled wrongly. It's been a consistent thing...

We know who the heroine is, but Kishi has a terrible ass time showing us who she is. A title isn't enough. I want actions, events and everything in between.

As for the bolded, don't be delusional. Hinata's done a fair share of stuff in this arc. There's DEFINITELY no denying that so don't downplay it...

Yeah i can understand your anger at Kishi. We all are mad at what he's done to Sakura but we can only hope that he's planning a parade of Sakura panel time soon. Talking non stop back to back chapters of Sakura time.
