Does Naruto ever get with Hinata? [Manga]

[Lazy Shikamaru]

Does Naruto ever get with Hinata? or do they even talk about it? does she tell him, etc. Or does something weird happen and for some odd ball reason Sakura starts liking Naruto for once? Just wondering if they're even gonna get into the subject.

I was actually wondering the same thing. I think Naruto is crazy to not notice Hinata...

I know, it's pissing me off... if Sakura ain't gonna hook up, then he should realize Hinata is damn cute, then he doesn't have to feel like he's being rejected by that pink haired female-dog all the time.

But like all girls, as soon as Naruto starts caring more about Hinata, Sakura will probably start liking Naruto. After all, you can even tell that Sakura and Ino don't really "love" Sasuke, they're just trying to outdo each other by getting the most popular boy.

As of chapter 213

Spoiler for manga spoiler:

No, they don't. They are busy fighting the bad guys. I really hope they resolve this issue after the current arc.

btw: In the Zabuza arc Sakura blushes because she realized what a cool guy Naruto is (the scene where Naruto gets his forehead protector back and says he has a plan) That could be a prediction, although the odds are higher for the Naruto & Hinata pairing IMO

Well, you've seen it. Sakura would rather go out with Sasuke, cuz even when Sasuke saved Naruto (through his attempt at tree climbing) she mostly cheered on for Sasuke then Naruto

Aha! but who saved HER rear when she was clawed against a tree by Gaara in the end of season 3? (or episode 79/80). =p that's gotta earn MAJOR poon points. But we haven't even heard a reaction from Sakura -_-

Episode 81 covers up to chapter 142 and assuming that every episode covers 2 chapters (disregarding fillers) you will have to wait 35 episodes to get to the point where the manga is (pobably even more because of fillers). 35 episodes and still no romance...

Oh yeah, it was Naruto. And in the manga Sakura thought that Sasuke saved her but truthfully it was Naruto that was sticking up for her during the Racoon Dog arc (season 3). And also at least Sakura should be greatful that Naruto covering up for her.

The boys are too busy right now in the manga, but as for Sakura and Naruto...

In the upcoming episodes, Team 7 will be on a roof top where Kakashi "attempts" teaching Naruto Chidori while Sakura and Sasuke watch from a distance. Sakura will thank Sasuke for saving her from Gaara, to which Sasuke denies any credit and admits that Naruto was the one who did it. She told Sasuke to stop being so humble, that even though Naruto was strong, Gaara was [a monster, implying that only a genius like Sasuke could've won]. With both reluctance and admiration, Sasuke tells her that Naruto displayed power they've never seen before in order to save her. Sakura then senses that Sasuke is serious and looks on Naruto (who at the time has a silly expression while saying "Chidori, come out"~) with a slight blush.

Much much later on...
Sakura attempts to stop Sasuke from leaving the village. Sasuke initially shrugs her off, but after emotional pleas from Sakura, in his kindest and most compassionate fashion, Sasuke thanks her for caring and puts her to sleep via a quick chop to the back of her neck.
Once the retreival team assembled and prepared to depart the next day, Sakura comes crying to Naruto at the last moment, begging for him to bring Sasuke back. Naruto brightly smiles and does the "nice-guy sign" (ya know, the one Gai and Lee always do to make a promise) promising her that he'll return Sasuke. Sakura weeps even more while flashing back to the scene in the beginning of the story where she told the "fake" Sasuke that she thought Naruto didn't know her at all and was troublesome...and corrects that by commenting to herself that Naruto indeed understood her and always tried to cheer her up.

SO YAH, Sakura-chan still has a chance before the evil-eyed Hinata nabs Naruto away! See the light, Sakura...see the light before it's too late!!!

Don't sweat, Sasuke won't take the praise anyway. He will tell Sakura that Naruto saved her.

I get the impression that we don't need to use the spoiler tags, because one can see from the title that manga spoilers are high likely, no?

Yup...Sakura has yet to relinquish her grip on Naruto; she must take as much advantage as she can while Hinata has nearly no air-time. It's now or never! And if Sasuke indeed escapes...Naruto and Sakura can go home and cry together and bond even more! XD

Since they were major spoilers, I wrapped them up just in case. But no, I edited it myself.

Well I assume he will escape (not sure what's going on) but I guess it's time for him to be trained by Orochimaru, where eventually Naruto and Sasuke will probably face off in a much later episode/chapter. That'd be cool. They should grow up by then. Turn like.. 18 or something by the time they see each other again.

Basically Sasuke, escorted by the Sound Four (the ones who made the barrier vs the 3rd) escaped the Hidden Leaf Village to join Orochimaru while a genin team (because most of the jounins and chuunins are out on missions...lame excuse!) chases after them. Most likely Sasuke will beat Naruto and escape successfully. As for the time-leap...that would make sense because Sasuke is such a crucial (and popular) character to be missing for a long time.
