* GodNeverSaidThat: Kishimoto's involvement with the production of this [[NonSerialMovie non-canon]] movie, which is heavily loaded with Naruto/Sakura ShipTeasing, made a lot of their {{shipping}} fans to claim that the author was giving an explicit endorsement of the pairing and that it was meant to be the official one. In reality, Kishimoto was only involved with the characters' designs and story draft, while the actual script of the movie was done by Yuka Miyata, who was infamous for her Naruto/Sakura-teasing [[ArmedWithCanon scene additions]] to the anime {{filler}} that didn't exist in the manga (although she stopped doing this and even seems to have ''left'' the anime after the manga ended and the anime continued to drag on, for [[ShipSinking obvious reasons]]).

On Yuka Miyata's Anime News Network profile, she has not been involved with the Naruto franchise since Road to Ninja. She was not involved with The Last nor Boruto the Movie, and she is not involved with the Boruto anime. Fixed the God Never Said That entry so that it's more neutral and concise.


* GodNeverSaidThat: Meta example: The fact that Creator/MasashiKishimoto was ''remotely'' involved in the production of this movie at all and that the movie has a lot of Naruto/Sakura ShipTease, made a lot of their shippers to claim that "[=RtN=] is Kishi's baby, and it's a [=NaruSaku=]-fest. That means that he officially supports [=NaruSaku=] and that it's meant to be the official pairing!". In reality, Kishimoto was ''only'' involved with the character designs and the story draft (which is more action-oriented; unlike [[{{Canon}} the next movie]], ''Anime/TheLastNarutoTheMovie'', whose focus is romance and in which Kishimoto was actually '''heavily''' involved with, due to the fact that he was the movie's chief story supervisor for the first time ever), while the actual script of this movie was written by Yuka Miyata, who was notorious for [[ArmedWithCanon inserting]] [=NaruSaku=] moments in the anime {{Filler}}... [[ShipSinking until the manga ended and the anime continued to drag on]], in which she finally caught on and stopped bothering to do the insertions for the rest of ''Shippuden''.
* RecycledScript: The movie is infamously guilty of blatantly recycling scenes from several chapters.
** The movie recycles scenes from Kushina's flashback.
** A scene late in the movie, rehashes a scene from [[WhamEpisode Chapter 437]] (Hinata's sincere AnguishedDeclarationOfLove), word-for-word, except with Sakura rather than Hinata.
* TrollingCreator: Promotional material put focus on [[ShipTease teasing]] [[FanPreferredCouple Naruto/Hinata]] and Sasuke/Sakura, but the movie itself teases Naruto/Sakura. Ironically, the first two would later become {{Official Couple}}s, while the one this [[NonSerialMovie non-canon]] movie focuses on has [[Anime/TheLastNarutoTheMovie the next movie]], which is the first {{canon}} movie of the franchise, [[LikeBrotherAndSister sinking it]]--never mind that [[ShipSinking it already sunk spectacularly]] in Chapter 469--''and'' even has [[CoolBigSis Sakura]] (and the rest of [[TrueCompanions the Konoha 11]]) being ''the biggest'' ShipperOnDeck for [[OfficialCouple Naruto/Hinata]].

While Sakura's parents were created by Kishimoto, Road to Ninja is a non-canon movie, and their subsequent appearances have only been in the Shippuden anime filler. Sakura's parents are God Created Canon Foreigners — they have only appeared in non-canon adaptations of Naruto; they have never appeared in canon. Provided an official Word Of God source (read Administrivia.How To Write An Example). After discussing this with the troper matruz, we mutually agreed that this information fits this trope.


* GodCreatedCanonForeigner: Creator/MasashiKishimoto designed Sakura's parents, Mebuki and Kizashi, specifically for this film. However, like all of the previous films in the franchise, this film is [[NonSerialMovie non-canon]]. Also, their subsequent appearances have only been in the ''Shippuden'' anime {{filler}}. In [[http://web.archive.org/web/20170924111946/http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:164031 this 2014 Fuji TV Kobayashi interview]], Kishimoto reveals that [[TheScrappy Sakura's unpopularity]] and [[CreatorsPest his own antipathy towards her]] are the reasons why her parents are not canon.
