It just makes sense that Neji wouldâve married Tenten if he had survived  the war.
I know that I am going to sound like the stereotypical nejiten shipper that looks for the smallest of details to prove a point but that isnât what I am doing here (for the most part). If you really think about (it doesn't take much), wouldnât it make sense for Neji to marry Tenten?Â
âWhere are your facts?â you say.
âWhere is the proof?â you question.Â
Hereâs the logical proof right here:
Tenten is canonically single as shown in Boruto. She is one of the very few other than Shino that never got married and never had kids. Rock Lee got married to an unknown women, meaning that there was no romantic interest between him and Tenten. Perhaps the reason for this was because Tenten was literally destined to be with Neji. It would just MAKE SENSE for the two of them to be married if he had survived. I doubt that Kishimoto wouldâve made another character, made that said character marry Neji, and blah blah blah.Â
The Hyuga clanâs main elder is dead, therefore, Hiashi was fully capable of making changes. I like to think that because Neji saved Hinata, Hiashi would allow him to go against the customs of the clan as a thank you for saving his daughter. A custom that enables Neji to marry Tenten without much conflict.Â
Do you see it now?
If Neji had survived, it wouldn't have made sense for him to not marry Tenten, because Tenten is canonically single in the new series. This furthers my analysis in saying that in the episodes prior to Naruto and Hinataâs wedding, Tenten is seen sitting on a log, daydreaming about how beautiful marriage is until she is struck with the realization that she has no boyfriend. She looks rather depressed and while it didnât reveal explicitly who she couldâve been thinking about, it probably was Neji.Â
Maybe you're right. Maybe I am jumping the gun.
But I am not.
Also, donât forget that Tenten would always bring up Neji in a conversation.Â
âWhat would Neji do?â
âIf Neji were here, he wouldnât even talk to you!â
âNeji would not do that!â
There is something much deeper going on here. Being a female myself, I know and understand the interest some males have in me and Tenten, despite her fictional justice, probably was hit on by a mass of guys, who she rejected (obviously).Â
Her heart was set on Neji.
She had hope they would end up together but NO. Kishimoto had to be a dick and kill Neji.Â
Sorry not sorry, but Neji and Tenten were destined to be together.Â
Also, Neji isnât dead.
(Let me clarify that this post is based upon my own analysis of the series and of their relationship. Yes, I used the word âproofâ because it is proof to me. You donât need to agree with me and if you donât then move on.)
