I believe so.
Which mean they wrote a scene where Sakura lied asking Naruto out on a date just so Hinata can be on the date with them. Worse still, Hinata AGREED to it as I think Hinata colluded.
Every time they write these "scenes" that seem cute, are actually disturbing.
Imagine if guys did this.
"Hey dude, I am going to ask the girl you like out even though she is in love with me, so you can have a chance to swoop in and be the hero that takes her."
That is extremely underhanded. HInata should have been like "Nah, fam, I want him to notice me legitimately." It means that Hinata doesn't care whether Naruto actually loves her as long as she is with him. He could be miserable and she would not care because "I got what I want."
Another difference....Naruto actually cared about Sakura's happiness even if she was not with him.
The thing is guys even if that happened her fan or fanatics wouldn't care they would still see her as a goddess that was created to save poor Naruto, again it's why I have grown to kittening hate Hinata.
Remember when something happen to Naruto shoulder and Hinata pop it's back ?
I remember that day , her fans got orgasm and cry in tearful joy (especially this is just few chapter after the famous hand holding in 615) .... and at the same time they bash Sakura like crazy saying shes useless , we don't need her , etc. Edit : The anime also exaggerate this scene , in this panel we see that nothing special or no word exchange between those two , but in the anime they make Naruto say thank you to Hinata before he throw the rasenshuriken.
