She’s a bad character not because she’s shy, it’s because her entire development revolves around one boy who she has 40 pages of development with in 700 chapters. That’s 0.0038% of the series rounded up, not even half of half of one percent, and yet people claim she is the heroine. She had the potential to be great, but the plot with her family was completely tossed aside to focus on her wanting a single penis, you know, the real valuable thing in life. The majority of her dialog in the manga is “Naruto-kun” and because she insisted on dying in front of Naruto instead of carrying him out of the way or blocking the spike, Neji is dead and even though the author claimed it was done to bring them together, Naruto still does not return her feelings until he is genjutsu’d into doing so. Because of Hinata, Neji died for no reason at all. While standing in front of his impaled corpse, she comments on how big Naruto’s hand is. Good attention to detail. Glad you have nothing to distract you from the size of Naruto’s hand.
Her clan has a higher class and a lower class, the lower class being cursed to serving the higher, even if it means dying for them. The system has been displayed as cruel, and even when Naruto has voiced wanting to change the system Hinata has shown no opinion of it even though it’s her family and her own cousin died because of it. It’s still in effect today. She only thinks about Naruto. Durring the chunin exams she would not cheer for her own team mate because he was fighting a boy she had hardly kept up a single conversation with. People say she was ‘always there for him’ though she never approached him when he was suffering. Despite what the Last tells you, the manga shows Naruto had no one growing up. Hinata watched, but she never helped him in his loneliness when it was most crucial. Before team seven, he only had Iruka. When Sasuke left Hinata was not there. When Jiraiya died she was nowhere to be found. Watching is not “being there” for someone. She also insisted on dying in front of him no matter how it made him feel.
Her character is over sexualized by the fandom and animation studio, even as a child. They’ve animated her dancing naked as a twelve year old, blatantly focused on her breasts, put her in a bunny maid dress and a chinese dress which no underwear, her vagina censored by a flytrap as she holds her breasts up high for no reason. Also, her outfit in the last was modified from Kishimoto’s design to accent her breasts while Sakura’s figure was slimmed down. There’s also the over glorification. People claim she can beat people like Sakura in a fight, even though Sakura surpassed the fifth hokage as a teenager and Hinata has never won a fight in the manga. The animation studio takes aspects of other characters and situations and applies them to Hinata even though it has nothing to do with her. She took Sakura’s background of being bullied, which was never in the manga, she took Naruto and Sasuke’s background as reincarnations of ancient ninja, which was never in the manga. She took Kushina’s “scary mom” aspect even though it goes completely against her nature.
People claim she is a princess, but a princess is the daughter of a monarch which she is not. They claim she is an heiress, which she is not because that title went to her little sister because she was stronger than her. They do all this to make her more relevant to the series because she has no point in the story other than to pursue Naruto. You take her out and nothing changes. They put her in fillers that give her development of becoming stronger that is never acknowledged in the manga.
She claims to love Naruto because he inspired her to become stronger, but then gives up on being a ninja after marrying him. What about being a strong ninja? Or was it really about that at all? Then Naruto is out fighting two overpowered retcon alients? Well, better send out the 12 year old kid to help him. “Take care of Naruto” Hinata says as she sends the child into untold danger.
She’s selfish, over hyped, over sexualized, and under developed. I could go on, but I’ll leave it at this. She is a bad character.
