VerifiedUn capítulo tenso cargado de emociones, ante la captura de Naruto, Hinata decide ir en su ayuda.

VerifiedEste capitulo es de los mas emotivos de todo el anime a mi parecer, Hinata arriesgándolo todo por Naruto aun sabiendo que no puede hacer nada me parece muy emotivo. La animación es increíble. Pain el mejor villano que existe.

VerifiedOne of the best anime confession scenes for me, especially for a Shounen genre animanga.
Honestly, this is a really great episode. It has one of the most iconic scenes in Naruto Shippuden. Hinata taught us to be brave, fight for what we love, and to give it our all until last.

The animation quality during the Hinata fight was incredible and the movement felt so smooth. It made the impact of Pain hitting her feel way more intense and tragic
betobeto_san
That six tails transformation looked absolutely brutal and seeing the skeleton form over the chakra was a huge moment. Pain finally pushed Naruto too far and the consequences are scary

Hinata is the only one who actually did anything while everyone else stayed back and watched. Sakura was just sitting there crying while Hinata was out there risking it all

The flashback to Naruto defending her from those bullies made me so emotional because of how it ties back to her protecting him now. She really came full circle

I just watched Hinata jump in front of a literal god for the guy she loves and her confession was so powerful. She is so much braver than any other ninja in the village right now

Pain makes a lot of points about peace and war that Naruto just can not answer yet. It is rare to see a villain talk this much sense while doing something so awful
nekogirl22
The sheer bravery Hinata showed against Pain was something else, but then I couldn't tear my eyes away from Naruto as he started to shift into that six-tails form—his face twisted in what looked like pure agony and rage, making me truly wonder how much of the old Naruto was even left under all that power.

Hinata crawling towards Naruto, all battered, just had me on the edge of my seat; I couldn't believe she finally said it, every word of her confession felt so incredibly earned after all her years of silent admiration. It made me tear up seeing her push past her usual shyness for him, showing a strength I always knew she had deep down.

Hinata stepping up against Pain was already making my heart pound, but seeing Naruto erupt into that terrifying skeleton-fox form was just... wow. It genuinely made me wonder if he could even come back from that kind of rage, especially when even Pain looked momentarily thrown off by how feral he became.

Seeing those flashbacks of little Hinata with Naruto made my heart ache, knowing what she was about to do against Pain. It just highlighted her courage so much, and honestly, her Twin Lion Fists looked absolutely incredible, making me totally root for her in that impossible fight.

Pain seriously thought he could just take Hinata out and Naruto wouldn't snap? I was on the edge of my seat watching Naruto just absolutely erupt through those black rods with the Nine-Tails' red chakra, it was terrifying but also kind of exhilarating to see him unleash that much raw power.
taiju_tenacity_158
Hinata's confession about Naruto inspiring her already had me feeling emotional, but then Pain just brutally stabs her right there? My gut dropped watching Naruto completely shatter, and it really made me question how he was going to come back from that without going full Nine-Tails.
blastoise_303
Watching Hinata just keep getting back up to try and pull those things out of Naruto, even though she was totally outmatched, really made me feel for her; her determination was insane. And then when Naruto went full Six-Tails, I couldn't help but wonder if he was even aware of what was happening, it was such a raw, terrifying display.
sailor_aluminum_seiren_391
My stomach dropped when Pain just casually tossed Hinata aside after her brave speech; it felt so unfair after she tried so hard. Then watching Naruto totally snap, with those bones erupting and making the whole ground tremor, I was honestly a little terrified but also like, "finally!"
corkus_the_cynic_192
I was seriously blown away when Hinata stepped up and told Naruto she loved him, especially seeing him in that helpless state. It felt like such a huge moment for her, and even though she got completely wrecked by Pain, watching her fight with those Lion Fists was absolutely legendary and totally worth it, showing how much she's grown.

Gosh, I was totally floored when Hinata actually confessed her feelings to Naruto right before Pain just brutally slammed her into the ground like that. My heart absolutely stopped when I saw her fall, I mean, it really felt like her sacrifice was going to be for nothing, and it's got me seriously worried about what Naruto's going to pull now.
moe_justice
The second Hinata put herself between Naruto and Pain, my heart was racing; I couldn't believe she was actually going through with it. Her declaration of love, even against such impossible odds, truly hammered home for me just how far she's come from that shy girl who used to just watch him from afar.
EPISODE CONTEXT
Coming directly after Naruto's capture by Pain in 'Nine-Tails, Captured!', this episode shifts the lens to the personal stakes and emotional bonds fueling the battle for the Leaf Village. Hinata's pivotal moment here serves as the emotional catalyst for what follows in 'Planetary Devastation,' where the conflict escalates to devastating new heights. Positioned roughly a third of the way through Shippuden, this is a defining chapter in the Pain's Assault arc—one of the series' most acclaimed stretches.
