Naruto getting so worked up about Hotaru having that forbidden jutsu forced on her really got me because I can tell he sees himself in her position and just wants her to have a choice

Naruto using that many shadow clones just to find Shiranami shows how much he cares about helping Hotaru even if he is just getting himself exhausted in the process

I usually skip filler, but this arc is getting to me because of how Naruto is projecting his own trauma onto Hotaru. It makes me wonder if he is being a bit selfish by telling her she should not want the clan jutsu, when she feels like it is her duty to her family. Utakata's cynical view balances it out and I even saw a small hint of Pain in the background
