With the war on the horizon, I was so glad for that little breather with the girls, it felt genuinely needed. Hinata's quiet, fierce hope for Naruto was so clear, and Neji actually guiding her training showed me just how much he's matured past his old resentments, which made me feel a strong sense of approval for him. I'm left thinking that her intense resolve is exactly what she'll need to finally stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Naruto.
