Fanon
NaruHina is one of the most popular ships in the Naruto fandom and is one of the two most popular canon ships along with SasuSaku. It was popular from very early on in the series due to Hinata's crush on Naruto and the overall popularity of Hinata as a character. With the pairing becoming canon, it became even more popular, especially in Japan. However, there is still some backlash among fans of rival ships and haters of Hinata. NaruHina is usually shipped along with SasuSaku and rivals the NaruSaku, SasuNaru, KibaHina, and NejiHina pairings.
