| 10 | |
| 11 | ''The Last: Naruto the Movie'' is the tenth ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'' film, the [[LuckySeven seventh]] ''Naruto: Shippuden'' film, and the first {{canon}} film in the ''Franchise/{{Naruto}}'' franchise. The series' author, Creator/MasashiKishimoto, was [[SelfAdaptation heavily involved in its production]] as chief story supervisor. |
| 12 | |
| 13 | In the movie, it's been two years since the events of the Fourth Shinobi World War and the moon begins to descend towards the Earth. With the moon now a meteor that would destroy everything on impact, an older Naruto must deal with this new threat. Meanwhile, a mysterious man tries to kidnap Hinata Hyuga, and her younger sister and heiress of the Hyuga clan, Hanabi. Albeit the former manages to escape with Naruto's help before she's taken. The name of the man is Toneri Otsutsuki, a descendant of Kaguya. Naruto, Hinata, Sakura, Sai and Shikamaru are deployed to get Hanabi back, while the rest of the shinobi world try to find a way to stop the moon from crashing on Earth. |
| 14 | |
| 15 | Despite the action-orientated premise and plot, the central focus of the story is actually [[RomanceArc Naruto and Hinata's relationship]] and the movie serves as the story of how they became the main OfficialCouple in the end. |
| 16 | |

| 24 | |
| 25 | [[http://www.naruto-movie.com/top.html Here]] is the official website. |
| 26 | |
| 27 | This movie's versions of Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, Hinata, Hanabi, and Kakashi are all playable in ''VideoGame/NarutoShippudenUltimateNinjaStorm4''. |
| 28 | ---- |
| 29 | !!''The Last: Naruto the Movie'' contains examples of: |
| 30 | |
| 31 | * AbhorrentAdmirer: |
| 32 | ** Toneri is a creepy stranger who goes on and on about "Celestial decrees", and so Hinata couldn't be less impressed by him. . |
| 33 | ** Downplayed with Naruto's three unnamed fangirls. They are constantly throwing themselves at Naruto, but he doesn't react to their advances with anything more than bemusement. He still treats them with courtesy, but it's obvious that he has no romantic interest in any of them. |
| 34 | * ActionGirl: [[LadyOfWar Hinata]] and [[CuteBruiser Sakura]]. The franchise as a whole has always been iffy in its treatment of the female characters, and Sakura in particular has always {{Zig Zagged}} between this and FauxActionGirl, but this movie makes both girls fully competent heroines on par with their male companions. |
| 35 | ** The fact that Hinata is this is the reason Naruto is puzzled when [[ShipperOnDeck Sakura]] asks Naruto to walk Hinata home because it's dangerous outside. |
| 36 | * AdaptationDyeJob: Naruto's Rasengan are alternately colored blue (as in the original anime) or yellow (as in the manga), [[spoiler:and when pushed out of his body by Toneri's attack his chakra is shown as yellow]]. |
| 37 | * AdvertisedExtra: Despite being all over the promotional material for it, Sasuke hardly appears in the movie at all. In fact, he only gets a single line of spoken dialogue! |
| 38 | * AfterTheEnd: A massive civil war between the Otsutsuki clan has turned the Moon into a post-apocalyptic state. The Moon is now a GhostPlanet covered in {{Ghost Cit|y}}ies and mass graves with Toneri as the last surviving person on the Moon. |
| 39 | * AlienSky: When the Hanabi Rescue Team passes through the strange cave, they look up and see the ocean and an island in the middle of the sky. The reason for this is because the cave is actually a passageway between the Earth and the Moon, and the Moon is a HollowWorld where the internal curvature of the Moon causes faraway terrain to appear in the sky. |
| 40 | * AllForNothing: [[spoiler:Toneri spends much time and effort to fulfill the wishes of his ancestor, only to find out that he had the completely wrong idea of those wishes. ]] |
| 41 | * AllThereInTheManual: Some parts of the plot are expanded and better explained in promotional materials and tie-ins. |
| 42 | ** The film's ending credits shows [[spoiler:Naruto and Hinata's wedding]], which may give some people the idea that [[spoiler:they get married immediately after defeating Toneri]] in a case of FourthDateMarriage. However, Creator/MasashiKishimoto created a two-page mini-story for the movie's databook, called "After The Last", that shows [[spoiler:Naruto and Hinata's first date]], explicitly stating that it takes place after the events of the film and implying they built up their romantic relationship. |
| 43 | ** A line delivered by Sakura in ''[[Literature/ShikamaruHidenACloudDriftingInSilentDarkness Shikamaru Hiden]]'' reveals that Naruto and Hinata have been hanging out together a lot before the Moon Mission--chronologically, the novel takes place a few months ''before'' the events that transpire in this movie. This confirms that Naruto and Hinata developed a closer friendship after the Fourth Shinobi World War ended. It just took the events of this movie for Naruto to realize that Hinata didn't see him as just a friend, and ultimately for him to realize that he didn't see her as just a friend either. The fact that Sakura was the one who noticed and pointed out their growing relationship [[FridgeBrilliance actually explains why]] she became such an avid Naruto/Hinata shipper in this movie. |
| 44 | ** The novelization reveals Toneri was raised by his dad who showed him Hinata when he was young and put the idea of them marrying in his head in the first place. |
| 45 | ** [[https://i.imgur.com/VtyGj66.jpg The movie's Blu-Ray cover]] shows [[spoiler:Naruto and Hinata being [[ShipperOnDeck congratulated by their friends]] for ''finally'' becoming an OfficialCouple after they and the rest of the team return to Konoha.]] |
| 46 | ** In ''[[Literature/SakuraHidenThoughtsofLoveRidingUponaSpringBreeze Sakura Hiden]]'', we learn that [[spoiler:Naruto and Hinata had been teased by older ninja and former classmates after the news of them returning from the moon as an OfficialCouple spread like wildfire.]] |
| 47 | * AlmightyJanitor: Naruto, one of the most powerful ninja in Kohoha and a hero of the Fourth Sinobi War is ''still'' a genin. Though at this point, seeing as his sensei is now ''Hokage'', it's probably due to a lack of concern and/or interest more than anything else. |
| 48 | * AltarTheSpeed: Toneri's statements seem to imply that his wedding to Hinata would occur only after [[spoiler:his Tenseigan had completely matured. But due to his discovery of Hinata's true intentions,]] he was forced to move up the ceremony. This resulted in Toneri [[spoiler:going through a seizure due to his still-maturing Tenseigan, giving Hinata a chance to escape with her rescuer Naruto]]. |
| 49 | * AndIMustScream: This happens to [[spoiler:Hinata]] when she [[spoiler:gets turned into one of Toneri's puppets]]. The "I must scream" part comes from the scene where [[spoiler:she utters Naruto's name while she's slowly losing her free will]]. This means ''[[FridgeHorror she is actually still conscious]]'' while the jutsu takes place. Which means that Hinata lies there in that portrait frame, thinking that [[spoiler:the world is about to get destroyed because she failed in her mission, her sister will get killed in the process, and the man she loved all her life died thinking that she betrayed him and stopped loving him]]. |
| 50 | * AndNowYouMustMarryMe: Toneri asks Hinata to marry him, and then dangles the life of her little sister to encourage her to accept. |
| 51 | * AngstComa: After [[spoiler:Hinata "rejects" Naruto and leaves with Toneri]], Naruto passes out for three days. According to Sai, Naruto spent those three days repeatedly mumbling [[spoiler:Hinata's]] name, along with "other embarrassing things", while he was sleeping/comatose. |
| 52 | * ApologyGift: [[spoiler: Upon Toneri's request, Hinata spends her time at his castle knitting him a scarf like the one she made for Naruto. In reality, she intends to give this new scarf to Naruto as a way to replace the one that got destroyed, to reaffirm her love for him, and to apologize for hurting his feelings by pretending to reject his love confession. Although this new scarf gets ripped to shreds by Toneri, Naruto accepts it anyway]]. |
| 53 | * ArmorPiercingAttack: Naruto delivers an extremely powerful one to Toneri [[spoiler:while holding the remains of Hinata's red scarf]]. The impact manages to [[spoiler:force Toneri out of his enhanced power mode and revert his Tenseigan back into Hanabi's Byakugan]]. |
| 54 | * AscendedExtra: Hinata is upgraded to the main female lead in this movie. |
| 55 | * AttackAttackAttack: What Toneri employs against Naruto in the FinalBattle is a lot of ninjutsu. Spamming rocks, spamming truth orbs, and a giant chakra laser. All cause massive damage, but this leaves him with a lot of openings for Naruto's counterattacks. |
| 56 | * AwesomeButImpractical: The Chakra Cannon built by the Cloud village is one of the most terrifyingly powerful weapons depicted in the Narutoverse. Its destructive power can wipe out hundreds of meteors at once, and it supposedly has the ability to send something the size of the moon into another dimension. However, its long charge time would make it impractical to use in a typical war (meteors were falling for days before it was ready to fire). |
| 57 | * BabiesEverAfter: TheStinger shows [[spoiler:Naruto and Hinata's children, Boruto and Himawari, playing snowball fight with them]]. |
| 58 | * BaitAndSwitchSentiment: During the Invasion of Pain arc, Hinata told Naruto she loves him, but Naruto interpreted Hinata's confession as her saying she likes him as a friend. He finally gets it right after physically walking through their merged memories. |
| 59 | * BatmanCanBreatheInSpace: Naruto's fight against Toneri in the moon definitely qualifies because both of them fight on [[spoiler: the surface of the moon without the aid of jutsu to breathe.]] |
| 60 | * BattleCouple: Naruto and Hinata. By [[HoldingHands holding each other's hands]], [[spoiler:they share and combine their unique chakra to destroy Toneri's Tenseigan Core orb, fusing Naruto's Rasengan with Hinata's Eight Trigrams Twin Lions Crumbling Attack. The scene where they do this even has them standing like a bride and groom facing the altar]]. |
| 61 | * BetaCouple: |
| 62 | ** The ending credits strongly imply that [[spoiler:Sai and Ino]] have became a couple. |
| 63 | ** Not to mention Sasuke and Sakura. One of the reasons [[ShipperOnDeck Sakura strongly supports Hinata in her pursuit of Naruto]] is because they have to "support each other", with a quick flash to the still-traveling Sasuke. |
| 64 | * BettyAndVeronica: Hinata is the "Archie" for Naruto's "Betty" (AHeroToHisHometown, AllLovingHero, NiceGuy, and childhood friend) and Toneri's "Veronica" (the BigBad, SmugSuper, {{Yandere}}, and a mysterious figure). Hinata has only ever loved Naruto, but [[spoiler:she pretends to choose Toneri so that she could save Hanabi]]. In the end, [[spoiler:she and Naruto become a couple and get married, while Toneri is left alone on the moon]]. |
| 65 | * BigBad: Toneri Otsutsuki, a descendant of Kaguya, is causing touble for the world. His goal is to use the moon to destroy Earth, as punishment for "abusing" chakra, which is what he thinks his ancestral grandfather (one of Kguya's sons) wants him to do. |
| 66 | * TheBigDamnKiss: Twice, unsurprisingly, between [[OfficialCouple Naruto and Hinata]]. Bonus points for the first instance. How damn big it is? It's [[FanPreferredCouple Naruto and Hinata]] sharing a [[HollywoodKiss Hollywood-like]] FirstKiss [[TrueLovesKiss of True Love]] [[SmoochOfVictory after defeating Toneri]]. It was [[LongRunner 15 years]] of ShipTease [[RelationshipUpgrade in the making]], and they form a FullMoonSilhouette while [[LoveFloats gracefully floating]] [[FlightOfRomance high in the air]]! |
| 67 | * BlatantLies: Toneri claims that Hinata accepted his marriage proposal of her own free will, and thus believes that she loves him instead of Naruto. He seems to ignore the effect that holding Hanabi hostage had on Hinata's decision, and that Hinata made it abundantly clear that she neither loves him nor does she agree with his plan to destroy Earth. |
| 68 | * BodyguardCrush: As the strongest member of the Hanabi Rescue Squad, Naruto is assigned to protect Hinata in case Toneri tries to kidnap her again. As they spend more time together, Naruto realizes he has more personal reasons to keep Hinata safe. |
| 69 | * BrainwashedBride: [[spoiler:Hinata reluctantly agrees to Toneri's proposal and sneaks into his place with a plan. But he figures out what she's up to and, feeling jealous because Hinata loves Naruto, he uses a mind-control technique on her to make her obey him, both as his bride and as a weapon against Naruto.]] |
| 70 | * BreakHisHeartToSaveHim: {{Zig Zagged}}. Hinata [[spoiler:breaks Naruto's heart, not to save him but [[BigSisterInstinct to save Hanabi]]. Nevertheless, she later apologizes to him for doing so. Naruto, of course, forgives her]]. |
| 71 | * BreakoutCharacter: Hinata, for the main franchise, in what is easily one of the most extreme cases of this in Anime history. Her popularity was so great that she is promoted from supporting to main character, goes from having [[UnresolvedSexualTension significant]] ShipTease with Naruto to becoming his main love interest, and has this canonical movie entirely dedicated to how she and Naruto fell in love. |
| 72 | * BrickJoke: Hanabi warns Hinata that she should eat something because she doesn't want her stomach to growl when she is confessing to Naruto. When she encounters Naruto later, as she is about to give him the red scarf she made, her stomach growls loudly, effectively ruining the moment. |
| 73 | * BridalCarry: Naruto carries Hinata like in his arms a couple of times in the movie's climax. Incidentally, she is wearing a bridal gown at the time. Romantic connotations are certainly intended. |
| 74 | * TheBusCameBack: |
| 75 | ** After not appearing for six hundred chapters (except in a dream), Hanabi, Hinata's younger sister, appears in this movie. In order to make her reappearance easier to swallow, [[AdaptationExpansion the anime]] aired two episodes that retell most of the series from her perspective; the first episode even aired the same week the film was released in Japan. |
| 76 | ** Also for the general relevance of the Byakugan. which was originally introduced as the equal of the Sharingan, only to be rendered more and more irrelevant by the repeated focus on the Sharingan and later Rinnegan as the most powerful eye-based bloodlines. Turns out this is because while the Rinnegan and Sharingan originate from the Rikudo Sennin, the Byakugan came from his brother Hamura, who was the ancestor of the film's BigBad. |
| 77 | * ByTheHair: Just before Naruto and Toneri's CockFight on the moon, Toneri grabs Hinata by the hair and throws her into a cage so that she'll be ForcedToWatch as he tries to kill Naruto. |
| 78 | * CallBack: Considering this is the first movie in the franchise to be {{canon}}, there are '''a lot''' of references to the manga. |
| 79 | ** One scene in the first act of the movie shows Naruto in his small, dark apartment, all alone as he stares out the window. After the ending credits, TheStinger shows him [[spoiler:training in the backyard of a large lit-up home and being greeted by his children Boruto and Himawari as his wife Hinata watches on]], emphasizing that after a childhood of loneliness, [[YouAreNotAlone Naruto doesn't have to return to an empty home anymore]]. |
| 80 | ** From the Introduction arc: [[LovingAShadow Naruto having a crush on Sakura because she liked his rival Sasuke]] was implied in Chapter 3. |
| 81 | ** In Chapter 29 of the Land of Waves arc, Haku asked a rookie Naruto this: "You said to me you wanted to become the best ninja in your village and have everyone acknowledge you. Now, if someone who acknowledged you from the bottom of their heart appeared, wouldn't that someone become the most important person to you?" Now, Naruto has become one of the best ninjas in the world and has won everyone's acknowledgment, but still hasn't found "[[OneTrueLove that someone]]". Until he realizes that "that person" [[ItWasWithYouAllAlong was Hinata all along]]. |
| 82 | ** When Naruto falls down and hurts his back, Hinata gives him her ointment, only for Naruto to reference the Chunin Exams when she gave him some after his preliminary match with Kiba in Chapter 77. |
| 83 | ** Also in the Chunin Exams arc: Sakura being a [[ShipperOnDeck Naruto/Hinata shipper]] was implied in Chapter 80. |
| 84 | ** Also in the Chunin Exams arc, Naruto made a HeroicVow on [[BloodOath Hinata's blood]] to defeat Neji for her in Chapter 81. Here, he makes another vow, this time to [[spoiler:save Hinata from Toneri and properly return her love for him]]. |
| 85 | ** From the Kazekage Rescue arc: This isn't the first time Sakura had to fight through an army of puppets. |
| 86 | ** Naruto demanding that [[spoiler:Toneri should "Give Hinata back!"]] is very similar to him demanding that Orochimaru should "Give Sasuke back!" in Chapter 291 of the Sai and Sasuke arc. However, this time there's no anger in his voice or SuperpoweredEvilSide taking over--just desperation. |
| 87 | ** In Chapter 406 of the Invasion of Pain arc, Shikamaru told Naruto that "eventually, you'll be the one paying for the ramen and someone will be calling ''you'' 'Naruto-sensei'". Nowadays, Naruto is teaching kids some of his moves and treats them to Ichiraku Ramen. |
| 88 | ** Also in the Invasion of Pain arc, Hinata confessed her love to Naruto, which left him [[StunnedSilence completely stunned]], and, after a brief fight against Pain, she got stabbed before Naruto could respond or let her confession truly sink in. Upon being ForcedToWatch her get stabbed, Naruto came close to crossing the DespairEventHorizon. Here, [[SwappedRoles Naruto]] confesses his love to Hinata, which leaves her completely stunned, and [[MomentKiller Toneri ruins the moment]] before she can reaffirm her love for him. Upon Hinata [[spoiler:"rejecting" him and leaving with Toneri to have a better chance at saving Hanabi]], Naruto crosses the DespairEventHorizon so badly that he comes very close to ''giving up on everything''. |
| 89 | ** Naruto's CockFight against Toneri references his previous fights against Neji and Pain. Both fights involved Hinata in some capacity, and in both fights, she missed the outcomes due to being unconscious or the battle being moved somewhere else. Here, [[spoiler:she gets to see the fight to the very end]]. |
| 90 | ** A subtle one to the Five Kage Summit arc: Dependence on powerful doujutsu can only get one so far. A much more skilled and experienced opponent can lay the odds to his favor, much to Toneri's consternation. |
| 91 | ** Also in the Five Kage Summit arc: This isn't the first time [[spoiler:a girl tries to break Naruto's heart]]. However, this time [[spoiler:it actually works, and it leaves Naruto ''completely heartbroken'' afterwards]]. |
| 92 | ** In Chapter 573 of the [[WarArc Fourth Shinobi World War Arc]], when Hinata is running to aid in the battle against Obito and Madara, she tells Naruto to wait for her. Here, when he makes his HeroicVow, [[SwappedRoles Naruto]] tells Hinata to wait for him. |
| 93 | ** In Chapter 611 of the Fourth Shinobi World War arc, [[ShipperOnDeck Kiba]] implies that [[InsecureLoveInterest Naruto is insecure around Hinata]]. Here, Naruto himself confirms this when he makes his HeroicVow. |
| 94 | ** From Chapter 615 of the Fourth Shinobi World War arc: During the final fight here, [[SwappedRoles Hinata]] is the one who [[spoiler:holds Naruto's hand, empowers him, and protects him by sharing chakra with him]]. |
| 95 | ** In Chapter 631 of the Fourth Shinobi World War arc, Naruto [[StayInTheKitchen tells Sakura to stay back]] while he and Sasuke fight the Ten-Tails clones. Here, Naruto motions for Sakura to stay back while he and Hinata fight Toneri. |
| 96 | ** In Chapter 649 of the Ten-Tails Revival arc, Hinata states that she wants to stay by Naruto's side. [[AllThereInTheManual In the novelization]], after he sees Toneri and [[spoiler:the brainwashed]] Hinata standing together [[spoiler:at the altar during their wedding]], [[SwappedRoles Naruto]] states that he will be the one to stay by Hinata's side. |
| 97 | ** From Chapter 651 of the Ten-Tails Revival arc: Like Obito, Toneri manages to create a giant sword out of his truth seeking orbs, [[spoiler:that Naruto manages to destroy]]. |
| 98 | ** In Chapter 671 of the Ten-Tails Retrieval arc, Naruto and Sasuke fall unconscious, enter another plane of existence, and receive the respective powers of Asura and Indra Otsutsuki from Hagoromo Otsutsuki. Here, Hinata falls unconscious, enters another plane of existence, and receives the power of [[spoiler:Hamura Otsutsuki from Hamura himself]]. |
| 99 | ** From Chapter 675 of the Ten-Tails Retrieval arc: Toneri using Hanabi's eyes to recreate the Tenseigan is reminiscent to Madara who used Hashirama's DNA in getting the Rinnegan. |
| 100 | ** Like in the Infinite Tsukuyomi sequence in Chapter 677, Hinata's final thoughts [[spoiler:before she loses her free will]] are to mentally call out to Naruto in despair. |
| 101 | ** In Chapter 681 of the final arc, Naruto told Kaguya that "A mother should be happy when her sons become independent!!" In the first act, Naruto clearly remains attached to his late mother Kushina by wearing her green scarf. After he realizes he's in love with Hinata, he sets aside Kushina's scarf in favor of Hinata's [[RedStringOfFate red scarf]], which signifies his desire to become independent from Kushina and move on from his past so that he could properly pursue a relationship with Hinata[[note]]He still keeps her green scarf neatly folded in his backpack, showing that although he does want to be independent from Kushina, he'll always love her and cherish her scarf no matter what[[/note]]. |
| 102 | %%* CallForward: Plenty towards the epilogue. |
| 103 | * TheCameo: |
| 104 | ** Several characters are featured throughout the movie in small roles, including Tsunade, Shizune, Killer Bee, Kankuro, Temari, Gaara, Pain, Gai, Lee, and Sasuke. |
| 105 | ** The stylized ink picture scroll prologue showcases key characters in the series' history such as Kaguya, Hagoromo, Indra, Ashura, Hashirama, Madara, Tobirama, Hiruzen, Minato and Kushina. |
| 106 | ** TheStinger also features the first animated look at [[spoiler:Naruto and Hinata's children, Boruto and Himawari]]. |
| 107 | * CannotSpitItOut: This time it's [[{{Irony}} Naruto who has trouble confessing his love to Hinata]]. At least he managed to spit it out in the movie, compared to the ''years'' it took Hinata to finally confess to him. |
| 108 | * TheCaptain: Shikamaru commands the rescue team to save Hanabi. |
| 109 | * CastingGag: [[Manga/SailorMoon Toneri, a character voiced by Robbie Daymond in the English Version of the movie, who's in love with a Stephanie Sheh character (Hinata) using the power of the moon.]] |
| 110 | * CentralTheme: Don't let the past stop you from living a happy life. |
| 111 | * CherryBlossoms: In the ending credits, where [[spoiler:Naruto and Hinata's wedding reception]] is surrounded by cherry trees in full bloom. |
| 112 | * ChickMagnet: After essentially saving the world, Naruto's popularity with the females of Konoha has skyrocketed -- [[ObliviousToLove much to his utter confusion]]. |
| 113 | * ChildhoodFriendRomance: Hinata has harbored feelings for Naruto since their childhood, and the first flashback of the prologue reveals that they first met as children before they enrolled in the Academy. In the second flashback of the prologue, they are shown at the Academy, where Iruka asked his students to write the name of the person they would spend the end of the world with. Naruto didn't write any names since he didn't know his family nor had any friends, but when his adult self looks at Hinata's paper when their memories were merged, he saw ''[[WhamShot his name]]'' on it. |
| 114 | * TheChosenOne: It's revealed that Hinata [[spoiler:is the Byakugan Princess, which means that she is the only one that can wield Hamura Otsutsuki's chakra, the only thing that can resist Toneri's Chakra Drain, destroy his Tenseigan Core orb and harm him]]. It is played with in that [[spoiler:she lacks the brute strength required to destroy the Tenseigan Core orb and fight Toneri on her own and has to combine her Eight Trigrams Twin Lions Crumbling Attack with Naruto's Rasengan in order to eventually fulfill her destiny]]. Then again, [[spoiler: Naruto is also the Child of Prophecy. So it like two chosen ones had to work together.]] |
| 115 | * CleaningUpRomanticLooseEnds: The purpose of this movie is to [[RomanceArc show how Naruto and Hinata fell in love]] and became the main OfficialCouple. |
| 116 | * ClippedWingAngel: Toneri's attempt at pulling a YourPrincessIsInAnotherCastle maneuver [[EpicFail backfires horribly]] when he [[spoiler:gets too close to the sun. He would have died if Naruto didn't decide to save him at the last minute]]. |
| 117 | * CluelessChickMagnet: No doubt due to his emotionally and socially stunted childhood -- Naruto's more popular than Sasuke ever was, yet since he no longer craves attention (and hasn't since the Invasion of Pain arc), he has no idea how to react to his ChickMagnet status, if he's even aware of it at all. |
| 118 | * ColorMotif: Naruto is associated with the color Orange, and Hinata is associated with the color Purple. Orange and Purple are placed on [[RuleOfSymbolism opposite ends of each other]] on the [[https://web.archive.org/web/20170929145745/https://designcode.io/cloud/chapter1/Colors-Wheel.png color wheel]]. What do they have in common? {{Red|StringOfFate}}. |
| 119 | * CoolBigSis: Sakura's role in the movie, as she takes Hinata under her wing and [[ShipperOnDeck encourages her to get closer to Naruto]]. |
| 120 | * ContinuityNod: Given how the movie is canon with the manga series, this is to be expected. |
| 121 | ** Kakashi is Hokage, having been made the Sixth prior to the DistantFinale, and no longer possessing a Sharingan. |
| 122 | ** Naruto has a bandaged right arm, having lost the original and replaced it with a new one, while Sasuke is still missing his left arm because he left the village before getting a new one. |
| 123 | * ColonyDrop: The moon is falling towards Earth. |
| 124 | * ComicallyMissingThePoint: [[ShipperOnDeck Sakura]] suggests that Naruto walk Hinata home because it's not safe for a lady to be alone after dark. Naruto can't understand why because Hinata is so strong no one would dare mess with her. |
| 125 | * CrazyJealousGuy: After Naruto realizes he's in love with Hinata, he acts like this every time his rival in love Toneri shows up. [[WordOfGod Screenwriter Maruo Kyozuka stated]] in [[AllThereInTheManual the movie's program guide]] that, with Kishimoto's direct and complete editorial supervision, he deliberately wrote Toneri to be so {{smug|Super}} and [[{{Bishonen}} good-looking]] that Naruto's romantic feelings "flare up" whenever Toneri tries to take Hinata away from him. |
| 126 | * CripplingOverspecialization: Toneri's fighting style is completely reliant to the Tenseigan and nothing else. When [[spoiler:Naruto punches it out of him, he is rendered powerless]]. |
| 127 | * DamselInDistress: Hanabi. Toneri kidnaps her in order to [[spoiler:take her Byakugan for himself]]. He also tries to kidnap Hinata, but Naruto manages to rescue her before she's taken. |
| 128 | * DeliberatelyDistressedDamsel: Hinata [[spoiler:"rejects" Naruto and turns herself in to Toneri in the second act]]. However, it's all an act [[spoiler:to save her sister and destroy Toneri's plan]]. |
| 129 | * DemotedToExtra: |
| 130 | ** As stated above, Sasuke. Though seeing as his main character arc in the series has been resolved by this point due to him giving up revenge and becoming TheAtoner, his limited screentime here simply showcases the results of his development. [[spoiler:In the scenes where he rescues an injured Hiashi, and brings him back to the village for treatment, as well as protecting the Leaf from an oncoming meteor]]. By extension his clan is this as well, as the plot of the movie, and the BigBad's motivations, has nothing to do with the Uchiha. |
| 131 | ** Aside from Sasuke, several of the Konoha 11, with the exceptions of Hinata and Shikamaru, end up this way, only making appearances at the start and/or having only a single line of dialogue. Characters like Tenten, Kiba and Shino don't even speak at all! |
| 132 | * DespairEventHorizon: Naruto crosses this after Hinata [[spoiler:"rejects" him and "accepts" Toneri's marriage proposal]]. This was confirmed by [[WordOfGod screenwriter Maruo Kyozuka]] in [[AllThereInTheManual the movie's program guide]], where he states that Naruto is "at rock-bottom" and is in "such a pitiable state" for the first time ever, and he even outright calls it Naruto's "lowest point." |
| 133 | * {{Deuteragonist}}: Hinata gets promoted to this role. |
| 134 | * DevotedToYou: Naruto becomes this to Hinata after he realizes he's in love with her, [[spoiler:and he vows to properly return the love she has held for him since forever]], which is the impetus for them to ''finally'' become an OfficialCouple. |
| 135 | * DiegeticSoundtrackUsage: A [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Du4ZBGUmYUU reprised version]] of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=daPo6q4FXDw the main theme of the the first series]] is used as a RecurringRiff throughout the film. The actual theme itself plays during the final battle. |
| 136 | * DistantFinale: TheStinger of the film takes place a few years before Chapter 700, showing Naruto, Hinata, and [[spoiler:their children playing around at their house]]. |
| 137 | * DistractedByTheSexy: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. When Naruto and Hinata eat ramen together in an abandoned house on the moon, he gets up and she asks why, and he replies that he has "to take a leak." When he said this, he turned his head around to look at her as he was walking away, and because he was distracted by her, he walked right into a spider web. |
| 138 | * DistressBall: Eventually picked up by Hinata. [[spoiler:She pretends to go along with Toneri's marriage proposal in order to infiltrate his base, rescue Hanabi, and destroy Toneri's Tenseigan Core orb. She winds up getting caught red-handed, becoming mind-controlled by Toneri, and must be rescued by Naruto during the movie's climax]]. |
| 139 | * TheDogBitesBack: Or, more accurately, [[spoiler:she gouges her sister's eyes out of your eyesockets]]. Given that Toneri kidnaps her sister, removes her eyes, almost kills the man she loves, [[spoiler: forces her into a position where she had to break the heart of the man she loves, cruelly turns her into one of his puppets, and stuffs her into a cage to watch as he tries to kill the man she loves again, Hinata's]] extreme reaction is definitely understandable. |
| 140 | * DrivingQuestion: "If the end of the world came, [[OneTrueLove who would you spend your last day with]]?" This movie is Naruto's journey to figuring out the answer to this one question, the only one from his childhood that he has yet to find an answer to. After he learns what Hinata's answer was, [[LoveRevelationEpiphany he finally realizes what his own answer is]]. |
| 141 | * DudeShesLikeInAComa: Averted at first then Subverted later. In the first instance, Toneri is watching Hinata sleep with a LongingLook in his eyes, comments on how beautiful she is, but doesn't kiss her. He opts to read her mind instead. In the second instance, Hinata is not asleep, but [[spoiler:she is mind-controlled and unable to consent while Toneri leans over to give her a wedding kiss, that gets interrupted when Naruto bursts in]]. |
| 142 | * EarnYourHappyEnding: The entire purpose of the movie is to show how Naruto and Hinata fell in love and have their HappilyEverAfter, after the long and hard road that was the the main series. It also doubles as the story of how Naruto, after spending an entire lifetime alone, learned to let go of the past and not give up on the future. |
| 143 | -->'''Trailer #1:''' The hero who was once an outcast... what will he find at the end of his journey? |
| 144 | * EmbodimentOfVice: Toneri manages to be this fourfold. |
| 145 | ** {{Pride}}: By being a SmugSuper. |
| 146 | ** [[DrivenByEnvy Envy]]: By being a GreenEyedMonster and a {{Yandere}}. |
| 147 | ** [[UnstoppableRage Wrath]]: Through his DisproportionateRetribution. |
| 148 | ** {{Lust}}: His lust for [[LadyOfWar Hinata]] and lust for power. |
| 149 | * EntitledToHaveYou: What Toneri's attraction to Hinata boils down to. |
| 150 | * EveryoneCanSeeIt: Hinata's feelings are as painfully obvious as ever. And, after Naruto's feelings sink in, he has just as hard a time hiding his affections. |
| 151 | * EvilCounterpart: Toneri manages to be this with both Hinata and Naruto. |
| 152 | ** Toneri is shown to be very envious, spiteful, and selfish while Hinata is [[NiceGirl kind, considerate, and selfless]]. |
| 153 | ** Toneri being the SmugSuper to Naruto's HumbleHero. |
| 154 | * EvilIsPetty: Despite how Toneri presented himself as a WellIntentionedExtremist, he's not above committing acts of petty cruelty. |
| 155 | * ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: The title of the film is ''The Last: Naruto the Movie'', because it is literally the last movie in the franchise with Naruto as the main character. [[Anime/BorutoNarutoTheMovie The next movie]] stars [[spoiler:Naruto and Hinata's son Boruto]]. |
| 156 | * EyeScream: Hanabi has her eyes removed by Toneri. Later, [[spoiler:Hinata rips her sister's eyes out of Toneri's eye sockets ''herself'', ala Madara, so she can give them back to Hanabi]]. |
| 157 | * FallingInLoveMontage: There's one with Naruto and Hinata in the second act, after [[LoveRevelationEpiphany Naruto realizes he's in love with her]]. Their dorky interactions make it very clear that they aren't fooling ''anybody'' -- not their teammates, not the BigBad, and not the audience. |
| 158 | * FanGirl: Due to saving the world from Kaguya and winning the war, Naruto's popularity with the ladies has skyrocketed. He has hundreds of girls fawning over him, traveling from all over the world to meet him and he receives countless presents from them during the Rinne festival. |
| 159 | * FauxAffablyEvil: Toneri gives this impression. When Hinata keeps questioning the validity of his interpretation of Hamura's decree, he angrily tells her to never ask him about this again. |
| 160 | * FictionalHoliday: The Rinne Festival, which seems to be the Narutoverse's counterpart to Christmas. |
| 161 | * [[FightingYourFriend Fighting Your Love Interest]]: [[spoiler:A brainwashed]] Hinata is forced by Toneri to fight Naruto. Fortunately, [[spoiler:Naruto manages to free her without harming her]]. |
| 162 | * FinalSolution: Toneri plans on exterminating the human race... simply because they use chakra as a weapon for war. |
| 163 | * FinaleMovie: While Naruto would continue to appear in later spinoffs, particularly the SequelSeries, ''Manga/{{Boruto}}'', this movie serves as the last installment of the ''Franchise/{{Naruto}}'' franchise with Naruto as the main character. |
| 164 | * FirstGirlAfterAll: While the anime had already attempted this trope in ''Shippuden'' episode 166, this movie [[RetCanon canonized Naruto and Hinata's relationship this way]]. It is revealed that Naruto and Hinata met on a [[SnowMeansLove snowy day]] when [[ChildhoodFriendRomance they were children]], when Naruto got beaten up [[RescueRomance trying to protect Hinata from bullies]]. |
| 165 | * FirstKiss: [[spoiler:Hinata finally gets hers with Naruto. Unfortunately for Naruto]], he already had his a long time ago with... Well... let's just say it's the page image for AccidentalKiss for a reason. It is, however, the first TrueLovesKiss for both of them. |
| 166 | * FirstLove: Hinata is this for Naruto. The movie's {{Tagline}} even outright confirms this, as it states "The last story is the FirstLove." |
| 167 | * FlowersOfFemininity: As shown in the ending credits and TheStinger, for [[spoiler:Naruto and Hinata's]] wedding, Hinata wears a white flower in her hair during the ceremony, and then two red flowers in her hair during the reception. |
| 168 | * ForcedToWatch: Toneri locks Hinata in a cage so that she could watch him kill Naruto. It backfires since all she got to see was [[spoiler:him suffering a humiliating defeat]]. |
| 169 | * ForegoneConclusion: People who read the Naruto manga to the very end, and/or are aware of the Boruto series know exactly whether or not Naruto and Hinata become a couple: [[spoiler:They do.]] As a result, the movie is less a case of "will they or won't they?", and more of a case of "''How'' Will They". Also, the moon isn't going to destroy the earth, since Konoha is completely intact in [[DistantFinale chapter 700]] and in Boruto. |
| 170 | * ForgottenFirstMeeting: As revealed in the first flashback of the prologue, Hinata was being bullied by three boys because of her Byakugan eyes and Naruto tried to protect her. He ended up getting beaten up instead. Even though they were classmates in the Academy for many years, they didn't interact much and didn't establish a real friendship until they became genin in the Chunin Exams arc. Naruto later recalls their first meeting in the movie, while Hinata always remembered it. Interestingly, this scene was originally not in the manga, having first appeared as a flashback in the [[AdaptationExpansion considerably-expanded fight between Hinata and Pain]] in ''Shippuden'' Episode 166, but it fit so well that it was [[RetCanon officially confirmed as canon]] in this movie (which is explicitly the first of two {{canon}} movies in the franchise[[note]]The second one being ''Anime/BorutoNarutoTheMovie'', which stars [[spoiler:Naruto and Hinata's son Boruto]][[/note]]), albeit with a few changes, such as the event happening during [[SnowMeansLove the wintertime]] and the inclusion of a [[RedStringOfFate red scarf]]. |
| 171 | * FreezeFrameBonus: |
| 172 | ** For a brief moment in the beginning, Kushina's green scarf can be seen among all of the other things in the Third Hokage's box. |
| 173 | ** Also in the beginning, when Hinata is knitting her red scarf in her house, there are [[https://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/narutocouple/images/0/0c/Hinata_knitting_red_scarf.PNG two dolls]] that look like Hinata and Naruto sitting together on a drawer. |
| 174 | ** [[spoiler:As Hinata walks into Toneri's arms, the cold look she gives to Naruto after she "rejects" him turns into a look of sadness, showing that this decision is hurting her just as much as it's hurting him.]] |
| 175 | * FreudianSlip: In the second act, Naruto tries to lift Hinata's spirits when she's depressed about Hanabi's kidnapping, and Hinata gives him a sad smile as she thanks him for being so kind to her. The flustered Naruto assures her [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial he's not just being kind because he's in love with her]], but because he really is worried about Hanabi. [[RepeatWhatYouJustSaid It does not go unnoticed by Hinata]]. |
| 176 | * GenerationXerox: Many of the events that occurred during Minato and Kushina's romance are echoed in Naruto and Hinata's, such as RescueRomance and the RedStringOfFate. Even OppositesAttract is in play, except {{Gender Inverted|Trope}}, where Naruto is the boisterous one oblivious to his OneTrueLove's affections until this movie (like Kushina), while Hinata is the quiet one who has loved and admired him from afar since the day they met as children (like Minato). |
| 177 | * GhostPlanet: The Moon is a ghost planet as a result of an apocalyptic civil war taking place within the Otsutsuki clan. When Naruto and his friends arrive on the Moon, they find it to be covered in [[GhostCity Ghost Cities]] and mass graves. |
| 178 | * GildedCage: Toneri's castle can be considered one for [[spoiler:Hinata]]. It's fairly luxurious, with staff comprised of puppets to cater to your every whim. However, make one wrong move, get caught by the surveillance puppets oranger Toneri, and you'll end up [[spoiler:becoming a puppet yourself]]. |
| 179 | * [[GirlOfTheWeek Girl of the Movie]]: Subverted. For once, the main female character isn't Sakura or the local girl; it's Hinata. Justified as this movie is the canonical bridge between the second-to-last chapter and the [[DistantFinale epilogue]], detailing how Naruto and Hinata fell in love. |
| 180 | * GlassCannon: For all the power the Tenseigan gives Toneri, [[spoiler:a sufficiently powerful attack can get it to revert back into a Byakugan]]. Also, he has zero defense against physical attacks. [[spoiler:When Naruto punches him in the movie's climax, he is immediately incapacitated]]. |
| 181 | * GraspTheSun: Naruto "reaches out to the sun" when he makes his HeroicVow [[spoiler:to save Hinata from Toneri and properly return her love for him]]. Goes hand-in-hand with VisualPun, as Hinata's name [[MeaningfulName means]] "sunny place/towards the sun". |
| 182 | * GreenEyedEpiphany: Naruto realized he was in love with [[OneTrueLove Hinata]] because he noticed that Toneri took an [[{{Yandere}} obsessive interest in her]]. Confirmed by [[WordOfGod screenwriter Maruo Kyozuka]] in [[AllThereInTheManual the movie's program guide]]. |
| 183 | * GreenEyedMonster: Toneri is the romantic variation. He takes a brief look into Hinata's heart and finds out that it is still filled with thoughts of Naruto. He [[LoveHungry doesn't take it very well]]. To his credit he actually tries to win her over and even requests of her to make him a scarf like the one she made for Naruto. When this doesn't work out [[spoiler:since she was actively trying to undermine him]] and her feelings for Naruto are just too strong, he decides to [[spoiler:hypnotize her and try to force her to choose him over Naruto]]. |
| 184 | * GrowOldWithMe: Naruto makes it all too clear in the movie that he loves Hinata, [[spoiler:and at the end of the movie, he tells her that he wants to spend every single day until the day he dies with her, and ''only her'']]. |
| 185 | * HeldGaze: Naruto and Hinata, several times throughout the movie. |
| 186 | * HeroicBSOD: [[spoiler:Hinata goes with Toneri (in order to have a better chance at saving Hanabi) right after Naruto confesses his love for her. Thinking it's a real rejection]], Naruto does not take it well at all [[AngstComa for three days]], spends a whole day and night curled up in a TroubledFetalPosition, and comes very close to ''giving up on everything'', until [[ShipperOnDeck Sakura]] snaps him out of it by telling him [[spoiler:that Hinata has only ever loved him, similar to how she herself has only ever loved Sasuke, and that will ''never'' change]]. |
| 187 | * HeroicSecondWind: After receiving Sakura's pep talk, Naruto gets back into action after recovering from crossing the DespairEventHorizon, now more determined than ever in [[spoiler:saving Hinata and properly returning her love for him]]. |
| 188 | * HeroicVow: Naruto makes a promise to [[spoiler:rescue Hinata and properly return her love for him]]. |
| 189 | -->'''Naruto:''' [[spoiler:Wait for me. [[InsecureLoveInterest You've loved someone like me forever and ever]]. Now, as a man, there's something I've got to say to you. Hinata, I swear I will save you!]] |
| 190 | * HoldingHands: Naruto and Hinata do this several times in the movie. Also doubles as a CallBack and MeaningfulEcho, as throughout the series, it's been stated that this is the one thing that Hinata has always wanted: to walk side-by-side with Naruto and hold his hand. In the FinalBattle it's especially significant as Naruto and Hinata [[spoiler:perform their combination attack this way. Hinata does this in order to protect Naruto from Toneri's chakra drain by sharing Hamura's chakra with him. When Naruto proposes to her, the scene is spent with them doing this. Finally, they hold hands as a prelude to their first kiss]]. |
| 191 | * HollowWorld: The Moon is a Hollow World with a large ocean, dense vegetation, a breathable atmosphere, and [[GhostCity Ghost Cities]] on the inside of its surface and an artificial sun in the center. A thousand years ago, Hamura and the Otsutsuki clan came to live on the Moon and were able to {{Terraform}} the Moon to make it inhabitable. |
| 192 | * HopelessSuitor: |
| 193 | ** In the first act, Hinata thinks she is this to Naruto. [[SubvertedTrope Only to be proven dead wrong]] in the second act, much to her surprise. |
| 194 | ** Toneri is this to Hinata. This is underlined during his time with her, which shows how ''incompatible'' he is with her. He ''never'' had a chance with her ''at all''. |
| 195 | * HumbleHero: By this point, Naruto has managed to completely outgrow his GlorySeeker phase. |
| 196 | * HumiliationConga: After spending most of the film drawing ire from not just Naruto but also the audience due to his callous actions, Toneri gets a well-deserved one at the end. It starts when [[spoiler:his wedding ceremony gets crashed by Naruto; his still-maturing Tenseigan causes him to have a seizure making him reel in pain while Naruto runs off with Hinata. He then goes to the Tenseigan core orb, only to find it destroyed. Later, he gets beaten by Naruto's powerful chakra-imbued punch[[note]](After constantly bragging how Naruto's fists would never reach him)[[/note]] that pins him to a wall of rock, to which his Tenseigan eyes revert back into the Byakugan. Now immobilized, Hinata proceeds to retrieve Hanabi's eyes by ''gouging them out of his sockets'', causing him to wail pathetically at the top of his voice. His last-ditch attempt to drain Naruto's chakra again using his ancestor's Byakugan, gets foiled by Hinata who protects Naruto by sharing her chakra with him. He then gets launched into space by his giant mook, and in the process goes through a painful superpower meltdown by absorbing the sun's energy]]. As such, said Conga is not only funny, but also downright cathartic. |
| 197 | * {{Hypocrite}}: Toneri. He is horrified when [[spoiler:Hinata goes to reclaim Hanabi's eyes, despite being the one who stole said eyes to begin with]]. |
| 198 | ** Earlier, he claims to Hinata that he dislikes getting into petty fights. Later [[spoiler:he uses Hinata as a puppet against Naruto]], in a clear display of VillainBall. |
| 199 | * ICantBelieveAGuyLikeYouWouldNoticeMe: |
| 200 | ** Hinata's reaction to Naruto's first LoveConfession, especially since earlier she thought she had lost her chance to be with him. |
| 201 | ** GenderInverted with Naruto upon ''finally'' realizing Hinata's feelings for him and seeing how long she's loved him. |
| 202 | * InLoveWithLove: Toneri [[DeconstructedTrope deconstructs this]]. |
| 203 | * InLoveWithYourCarnage: Part of Toneri's [[{{Yandere}} obsessive interest]] and {{lust}} towards [[LadyOfWar Hinata]] is due to the strength and potency of her untapped chakra of their mutual ancestor Hamura. |
| 204 | * InterruptedDeclarationOfLove: [[AllThereInTheManual In the novelization]], Naruto tries to confess his love to Hinata when they're alone together, after [[LoveRevelationEpiphany he realizes he's in love with her]]. Just when he's about to tell her, Hanabi's kunai falls out of her backpack. This causes Naruto to come to his senses, knowing very well that, despite the newfound special happiness that he feels from being with Hinata, he shouldn't be in high spirits while her sister is still missing. |
| 205 | * InternalReveal: Naruto is surprised when he learns that Hinata has been in love with him since they were children. However, all of their friends and most of the public have known it for ''years'' -- Hinata isn't really subtle with her feelings for him, ''and'' she outright confessed to him two years ago; Naruto's just too dense to realize it was ''that'' kind of love, instead of the love he has for ''ramen''. You can see the sadness on his face when he realizes that all those years he was trying to get acknowledged by the village, he was blind to the one person who has acknowledged, admired, and ''loved'' him [[WartsAndAll for the way he is]] since the very beginning, ''long'' before Iruka even acknowledged him. |
| 206 | * {{Interquel}}: It's set between the penultimate chapter and the [[DistantFinale epilogue]] of the manga. The movie gets its own Interquel in the form of a light novel called ''Literature/KonohaHidenThePerfectDayForAWedding'', which focuses on the rest of the Konoha 11 as guests in [[spoiler:Naruto and Hinata's wedding]]. |
| 207 | * IronicEcho: |
| 208 | ** In Chapter 437 of the Invasion of Pain arc, when Hinata confessed her love to Naruto, she told him that she came to protect him from Pain on her own free will. Here, when Hinata [[spoiler:"rejects" Naruto]] after he confessed his love to her, [[KickTheDog Toneri tauntingly tells Naruto]] that Hinata came to him on her own free will. |
| 209 | ** Hinata was told by Toneri that she will be shown the Tenseigan core once they are married. Later, she and Naruto [[spoiler:destroy the core while positioned like a bride and groom]]. |
| 210 | * {{Irony}}: |
| 211 | ** Hinata has not-so-subtly pined after Naruto for ''years'', and he was unable to register both her feelings and his own as ''romantic'' love, even after she spit it out to him in the Invasion of Pain arc and then [[HoldingHands they held hands]] in the WarArc. Then, when he ''finally'' realizes what romantic love actually means, ''Hinata'' can't see it even though everyone else can. The sheer irony of the situation is so painful that it makes it funny. |
| 212 | ** Toneri constantly brags to Naruto that his fists would never reach him. In his and Naruto's CockFight, Toneri [[spoiler:fires a chakra laser against Naruto who plows through it using his fist, closing the gap. This also left him a sitting duck (since he had to remain still to aim in the fist place) to Naruto's followup punch which connects and sends him flying]]. |
| 213 | * ItsAllAboutMe: One of Toneri's most defining traits without a doubt. The movie makes it very clear that he is selfish and highly egotistical. Adding his complete LackOfEmpathy, he's close to being a full-blown {{Sociopath}}. |
| 214 | ** By extension, he clearly displays self-centered affection towards Hinata. Getting her to knit a scarf for him seems less an attempt at winning her over and more as something to nurse his bruised ego. |
| 215 | --->'''Toneri:''' I'm happy that you understand how '''I''' feel, Hinata. |
| 216 | --->'''Toneri:''' Will you knit me a scarf... A scarf '''just for me'''. |
| 217 | ** He eventually [[spoiler:hypnotizes her to become one of his puppets]], showing that he treats her more as his trophy rather than actually caring for her as a person. |
| 218 | * ItsPersonal: For a person who antagonizes the entire world with his ColonyDrop plan, Toneri manages to give both Hinata and Naruto very personal reasons in taking him down. |
| 219 | ** Hinata, because Toneri kidnapped and later blinded her younger sister, as well as nearly killed Naruto right after he confessed his love to her. |
| 220 | ** Naruto, because Toneri tried to steal Hinata from him,[[spoiler:turned her into one of his puppets through mind-control, tried forcing her into marrying him, and spitefully destroyed the red scarf she worked so hard to make]]. |
| 221 | ** Both of them: because Toneri forced Hinata into a position where she had to make a choice that would hurt both her and Naruto. |
| 222 | * IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: When Hinata mistakes Naruto's green scarf as a gift from another woman[[note]]it was actually knitted by his late mother Kushina, but she doesn't know that yet[[/note]], she tearfully wishes him well with the supposed owner of that scarf and decides to stop pursuing him. This is ultimately why, when [[LoveRevelationEpiphany Naruto realizes he's in love with her]] and starts being [[EveryoneCanSeeIt incredibly unsubtle with his feelings]], she became, {{iron|y}}ically, ObliviousToLove. |
| 223 | * {{Kaiju}}: Naruto summons Kurama to fight against a giant golem that Toneri summons. |
| 224 | * KarmaHoudini: Toneri is a Subversion. [[spoiler:Sure, he gets easily forgiven by Naruto and Hinata, but he has to live with the realization that his actions went completely against his ancestor's wishes. It causes so much guilt and, for someone who went on about honoring his ancestor, this is a fate worse than death]]. Also he's actually much worse off than before. Because not only is he [[spoiler:blinded again, but the Tenseigan core's destruction renders him powerless with his puppets remaining deactivated, and by staying on the moon he condemns himself with the very thing he was trying to escape]]. |
| 225 | * KickingAssInAllHerFinery: Hinata spends the latter part of the film wearing a very pretty black wedding dress, [[spoiler:most notably the scene where she and Naruto perform a combination attack to destroy the Tenseigan core orb]]. It should be noted that the dress gets progressively damaged as the final part of the movie goes on. |
| 226 | * KryptoniteFactor: Toneri's only weakness is [[spoiler:Hamura's chakra]]. Not only is Naruto not affected by it but it also [[spoiler:protects him from Toneri's chakra drain during his final confrontation]]. |
| 227 | * LackOfEmpathy: Toneri clearly shows this, performing EyeScream on a young girl with no hint of guilt, using said girl as a bargaining chip for her sister, shooting down Hinata's attempts to dissuade him from his plan, not giving Hinata a chance to explain herself [[spoiler:when she is caught trying to destroy his superweapon, and hypnotizing her to become one of his puppets]]. Our heroes even {{Lampshade|Hanging}} the remorselessness of his actions at multiple times in the movie. |
| 228 | * LaserGuidedKarma: Everything Toneri has done, ultimately returns to bite him back hard by the end of the film. In short, [[spoiler:the eyes he stole were reclaimed by the woman he forcibly attempted to marry right after suffering defeat at the hands of the guy he tried to kill off]]. |
| 229 | ** For ruining Naruto's first LoveConfession to Hinata, he would later get his wedding crashed by [[spoiler:Naruto, who would run off with Hinata, while he remains reeling in pain from his eyes]]. |
| 230 | ** For spitefully destroying the red scarf that Hinata worked so hard to make, Naruto would later [[spoiler:hold the scarf's remains as part of a powerful attack that defeats him and depowers his Tenseigan]]. |
| 231 | * LastMinuteHookup: So last minute that the title of the movie is even ''The Last''. The movie is a {{canon}}ical {{Interquel}} set between the second-last chapter and the last chapter of the manga. |
| 232 | * LateArrivalSpoiler: The movie's teasers and especially the trailer don't try to hide what happened during the final chapters of the manga. The trailer also gives away that Naruto and Hinata become an OfficialCouple. |
| 233 | * TheLeader: |
| 234 | ** Kakashi is the Sixth Hokage. |
| 235 | ** In Naruto's group, that role is fulfilled by Shikamaru. |
| 236 | * LeaveTheTwoLovebirdsAlone: [[ShipperOnDeck Shikamaru, Sakura, and Sai]] do a version of this trope without the leaving part. While Naruto and Hinata are having a very tender moment, the three of them stand in the background, being quiet in order to preserve the moment, all while smiling at the couple for ''finally'' coming together. |
| 237 | * LightIsNotGood: Toneri, who spends most of the movie clad in a white robe. [[spoiler:He switches to black at the end of the movie, implying he's turning into a good guy]]. |
| 238 | * LivingEmotionalCrutch: Naruto and Hinata's relationship. Naruto's spirit and determination inspired Hinata to never give up on herself, while Hinata is the one who always brought Naruto back from the brink of despair during some of the darkest moments of the series. [[spoiler:When Hinata "rejected" him, Naruto came very close to ''giving up on everything''. Only a pep talk from Sakura about the unwavering love and devotion Hinata has had for him for ''years''--which is ''identical'' to Sakura's own love and devotion for Sasuke--does he snap out of it]]. |
| 239 | * LongingLook: Naruto gives a rather incredible one to Hinata in the village scene -- his eyes shine in a way that makes it look as if he's seeing her, ''really'' seeing her, for the very first time. |
| 240 | * LoveHungry: Toneri's defining character trait. |
| 241 | * LoveInformant: Sakura takes this role, as Naruto and Hinata's ShipperOnDeck, [[spoiler:where she gives Naruto an important pep-talk regarding Hinata, by telling him that Hinata has only ever loved him, just like how she herself has only ever loved Sasuke. It works]]. |
| 242 | * LoveInterestTraitor: Inverted. Naruto thinks [[spoiler:Hinata is this after she runs off with Toneri right after he confessed his love to her]]. In reality, [[spoiler:she intends to betray Toneri, rescue Hanabi and destroy the Tenseigan Core orb]]. Thankfully, Sakura sets Naruto straight afterwards. |
| 243 | * LoveRevelationEpiphany: Naruto realizes the true nature of Hinata's feelings for him, and his own for her, after witnessing her feelings for him firsthand when they were trapped in a genjutsu that makes them relive their memories. Considering Kakashi stated in Chapter 314 that Naruto is a kinesthetic learner (I.E., a direct learner, someone who learns with his body or by doing, [[LikeFatherLikeSon just like his father Minato]]), this actually makes sense--Naruto ''needed'' to physically walk through his and Hinata's merged memories to finally understand both her feelings and his own. |
| 244 | ** Demonstrated when he stops wearing Kushina's green scarf after realizing that the red scarf Hinata was knitting was for him, understanding that he can't remain attached to the past, and accepts that it's time to move on in order to pursue a relationship with Hinata by wholeheartedly accepting the scarf she made. |
| 245 | * LovingAShadow: Sakura helps Naruto realize that his former crush on her was ultimately another facet of his rivalry with Sasuke than any actual romantic feelings, because when they were younger, particularly in their Academy years and early on in Part I, [[GreenEyedMonster Naruto]] just wanted to beat out [[AlwaysSomeoneBetter Sasuke]] at something for once--which was implied in Chapter 3. What Naruto has with Hinata is his first and ''only'' experience of both FirstLove and [[OneTrueLove true love]], because he genuinely fell in love with the person, rather than the idea of winning someone over by beating out someone else. |
| 246 | ** Case in point: In the second flashback of the prologue, when Iruka tells his students to write down the name of the person they want to spend their last day with, Naruto tells Sakura that he'd protect her, which she predictably rebuffs because she's focused on Sasuke. However, when Naruto actually thinks to himself, he admits that he doesn't have family or friends, and he's unable to write down a name. Despite his previous statement, Naruto does not think to write Sakura's name, even though he's supposed to have a crush on her in his childhood. This is an understated yet telling scene that demonstrates that his passing crush on her was non-existent and not serious. |
| 247 | * ManaDrain: Toneri can apparently absorb all forms of chakra from a distance, which means that anyone [[spoiler:who doesn't have Hamura Otsutsuki's chakra]] that attempts to fight him will be rendered useless and powerless in a very short amount of time. Naruto finds this out the hard way when he fights him face to face for the first time right after he confesses his love to Hinata, although his bad condition after that fight also has to do with [[NotGoodWithRejection something else]]. Toneri tries this again on Naruto after [[spoiler:losing to him]]. Fortunately for Naruto, [[spoiler:Hinata shares the chakra she received from Hamura with him in order to protect him from it]]. |
| 248 | * MeaninglessVillainVictory: Did Toneri manage to steal Hanabi's eyes? Yes. Did he manage to [[spoiler:get Hinata into becoming his bride]]? Yes. Did he trounce Naruto as adding injury to insult to his (Naruto's) LoveConfession? Yes. Does all of this mean that he gets final victory? Nope. [[spoiler:In fact, the fallout of all of his initial successes lay the groundwork to his ultimate defeat]]. |
| 249 | * TheMedic: Sakura is credited as the Leaf's strongest healing ninja. |
| 250 | * MindControlDevice: Toneri's green orbs seem to act this way [[spoiler:combined with his Tenseigan]]. |
| 251 | * MindControlEyes: A very interesting case with [[spoiler:Hinata]]. The basic design of her eyes (as in the eye design from start of the manga until now) ''already'' fits the description of the trope, so it's not the eye design itself that indicates she is being controlled. Rather it's her expressionless face [[spoiler:when she is forced to fight Naruto]] that gives it away. |
| 252 | * MyGodWhatHaveIDone: |
| 253 | ** [[spoiler:The look in Hinata's eyes as she watches Naruto fall to earth after she "rejects" him just screams this.]] |
| 254 | ** [[spoiler: When Toneri learns the truth about Hamura's decree, he falls to his knees as he realizes the horrible things he's done.]] |
| 255 | * MythologyGag: Naruto and Hinata's CombinationAttack [[spoiler:to destroy the Tenseigan]], the Gentle Step Spiralling Twin Lion Fists, greatly resembles their "Joined Hands" Team Ultimate Jutsu, the Gentle Phoenix Spiralling Twin Lion Fists, from the video game ''VideoGame/NarutoShippudenUltimateNinjaStormRevolution'', which was released three months prior to this movie. The main difference between the video game and this movie is that their roles have swapped--here, Hinata is the one giving chakra to Naruto, and their standing positions are reversed, because [[spoiler:a groom normally stands to the right of his bride]]. |
| 256 | * NiceJobFixingItVillain: |
| 257 | ** Toneri's attempts to push Naruto and Hinata apart only result in [[spoiler:the two of them getting back together, with their bond much stronger than before and becoming a couple]]. |
| 258 | ** Toneri coming out of his base to [[spoiler:pick up Hinata personally, eventually gets Shikamaru and Sai (who have spent days looking for it on their own) to successfully locate it]]. |
| 259 | * NoHuggingNoKissing: After being played straight for 700 chapters in the manga, this trope ''finally'' gets [[AvertedTrope kicked in the ass]] in this movie. Creator/MasashiKishimoto, who never wrote any on-page romance in the manga due to his self-admitted embarrassment, attended the premiere screening and said that he thought he wouldn't be able to watch Naruto and Hinata share TheBigDamnKiss at the end, but he managed it and felt like "his kids had finally grown up and flew away from home." |
| 260 | * NotGoodWithRejection: [[spoiler:Naruto and Toneri]] both play this straight. [[spoiler:Naruto]] crosses the DespairEventHorizon that he only manages to recover from after being told that [[spoiler:the "rejection" was obviously a facade and Hinata's feelings for him would never change]], while [[spoiler:Toneri goes crazy and decides to hypnotize Hinata, which gets undone by Naruto]]. |
| 261 | * NotSoDifferentRemark: [[AllThereInTheManual In the novelization]], during Naruto and Toneri's CockFight on the moon, they both remember the pain of being orphaned children--Toneri recalls being in a TroubledFetalPosition while alone on the moon's surface, and Naruto recalls sitting alone on a swing in a park. Later on, Naruto tells Hinata that due to their lonely childhoods, he and Toneri are "kind of similar." |
| 262 | * NothingIsTheSameAnymore: What sets this film apart from [[NonSerialMovie all of the previous films]] is that the existing status quo is different from before, to the point that the entire cast wears different outfits. Furthermore, the events of the film have [[{{Canon}} direct impact on the manga]]. Namely that, in this movie, Naruto and Hinata [[spoiler:finally get together and become a couple]]. |
| 263 | * ObliviousToLove: Naruto remains oblivious to the affections that many Konoha females have for him. {{Iron|y}}ically, after years of being unable to register Hinata's feelings, Naruto finally acknowledges them and realizes the true nature of his own feelings for her as being romantic too...only for ''Hinata'' to be completely unaware until he finally spits it out. |
| 264 | -->'''Sakura:''' He's so dense. I don't think he really understands what the word "love" implies.\ |
| 265 | '''Hinata:''' What do you mean?\ |
| 266 | '''Sakura:''' He doesn't understand that loving a person romantically is different from liking ''miso ramen''. |
| 267 | * OfficialCouple: Naruto and Hinata. The movie is the story of how they fell in love and became this trope. |
| 268 | * OfficialKiss: Between [[spoiler:Naruto and Hinata]], to show that they become the above trope. |
| 269 | * OneTrueLove: Naruto has spent almost his entire life searching for the one person who would love him unconditionally, in spite of everything that has and will transpire in his life, along with [[WartsAndAll all of his flaws]], like his parents would have if they lived beyond his birth. However, since he never understood the ''[[WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove romantic]]'' implications of such a relationship, he's been blind to the fact that the person he's been searching for has been right in front of him all this time: Hinata, the girl who has admired, acknowledged and loved him for the way he is [[ChildhoodFriendRomance since the day they first met as children]]. It takes him until this movie to [[LoveEpiphany finally realize]] that Hinata is the precious person he wants to protect and be with. |
| 270 | ** Confirmed by Kishimoto in [[https://web.archive.org/web/20151015033145/https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interview/2015-10-14/masashi-kishimoto-at-new-york-comic-con/.94186 this 2015 New York Comic Con interview]]: |
| 271 | --->'''Creator/MasashiKishimoto''': I think what made me realize it was partly because, if you really look back and think about it, Hinata always supported and acknowledged Naruto, even before Master Iruka. She had the ability to see beyond his reputation and see the true person inside. I think I started realizing that '''''they were meant to be'''''. |
| 272 | * OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Shikamaru attempts to break Naruto out of his HeroicBSOD by telling him that since he gave up on [[spoiler:Hinata]] so easily, he might as well give up on becoming Hokage. Naruto responds by ''grabbing his friend from the collar'' and angrily asking him if he's looking for a fight. After [[JerkassHasAPoint chewing out Naruto some more]] for [[spoiler:forgetting about their mission]], Shikamaru realizes he can't do anything else and gets [[LoveInformant Sakura]] to snap him out of it. |
| 273 | * OrganTheft: Hanabi's eyes [[EyeScream get removed by Toneri]] and transplanted into his eyesockets to become his Tenseigan. |
| 274 | * OutOfCharacterAlert: [[spoiler:Hinata "rejecting" Naruto's first LoveConfession and "accepting" Toneri's marriage proposal]] tips off [[ShipperOnDeck Sakura]], who in turn tells Naruto that it's obviously a ruse, that [[spoiler:Hinata]] has a plan up her sleeve to save her sister, and that [[spoiler:Hinata]] isn't that fickle with her true feelings. Later, when [[spoiler:Hinata]] is forced to fight Naruto, her expressionless face tips off Naruto that she is under mind-control, who promptly proceeds to undo the control without harming her. |
| 275 | * PoorlyTimedConfession: When Naruto confesses his love to Hinata, she's depressed about Hanabi, so she doesn't respond. Then [[MomentKiller Toneri ruins the moment]], and Hinata [[spoiler:coldly "rejects" Naruto and goes with Toneri (in order to save Hanabi and the earth). Thinking it's a real rejection]], Naruto does not take it well, nearly gets killed, passes out for three days, and comes very close to ''giving up on everything''. Thankfully [[ShipperOnDeck Sakura]] sets him straight. |
| 276 | * PublicDomainSoundtrack: The film's opening is set to a bagpipes rendition of ''Greensleeves''. |
| 277 | * PurpleIsPowerful: [[spoiler:Hamura's chakra given to Hinata]] glows purple. |
| 278 | * RedStringOfFate: The red scarf given to Naruto in the movie is from Hinata, as a CallBack and MeaningfulEcho to how his parents fell in love. It's to emphasize that the fates of Naruto and Hinata are tied together in the same way. |
| 279 | * RelationshipUpgrade: For Naruto and Hinata. Pretty much the whole point of the movie. |
| 280 | * RetCanon: Naruto and Hinata having their first meeting as children (with Naruto protecting her from the trio of bullies) was a scene originally created in ''Shippuden'' episode 166, with no counterpart in the manga. While the anime scene was considerably modified in the movie[[note]]It originally didn't happen in winter, Naruto put up an actual fight against the bullies before being completely beaten down, and Hinata was pulled away from the scene by her bodyguard, Ko Hyuga, who told her she couldn't associate with Naruto, meaning obviously there was no [[RedStringOfFate red scarf]][[/note]], its adaptation in the movie retroactively canonized the previously anime-only scene. |
| 281 | * ReturningTheHandkerchief: Albeit with a red scarf, the intent is the same. |
| 282 | * RescueRomance: Hinata first met Naruto when he protected her from some bullies when they were kids. Now adults, Naruto again saves her, this time from [[BigBad Toneri]], and [[spoiler:at the end of the movie, the two ''finally'' become a couple]]. It also serves as a CallBack and MeaningfulEcho to the story of how Naruto's parents fell in love. |
| 283 | * RoaringRampageOfRescue: There's a combination of this and StormingTheCastle. In the climax, [[spoiler:Sakura, Sai, Shikamaru, and Naruto storm Toneri's base to rescue the Hyuga sisters. They accomplish this by splitting into two pairs: Naruto and Shikamaru lead the rescue for Hinata, while Sakura and Sai go for Hanabi]]. |
| 284 | * RomanceArc: The movie is billed as one for [[OfficialCouple Naruto and Hinata]], with Creator/MasashiKishimoto himself saying that the film is about romance and love. Appropriately they hired Tsuneo Kobayashi (known for directing romantic anime) as the film's director. The movie poster further emphasizes this: every single person on the poster is facing forward ''except'' for Hinata, who is facing the side with [[RedStringOfFate the red scarf Naruto is wearing flowing beneath her]], making it blatantly clear who Naruto's true LoveInterest is. |
| 285 | * RunningGag: Naruto failing to land a hit on Toneri or Puppet!Toneri. It just makes the [[ArmorPiercingAttack final punch]] that much sweeter. |
| 286 | * SavedByCanon: Seeing as how the DistantFinale of the manga is set well after this film, and the entire main cast is featured in it, by necessity they're going to survive. |
| 287 | * SayMyName: "HINATAAAAA!" by Naruto several times in the movie. |
| 288 | * ScarfOfAsskicking: Hinata has wanted to give Naruto a handmade [[RedStringOfFate red scarf]] since the day they met as children. {{Subverted|Trope}} in that all of the scarves she makes in the movie eventually get destroyed before Naruto can even wear them, but [[spoiler:he holds the last scarf's remains while delivering an emotional and powerful chakra-imbued punch right to Toneri's face]]. When we finally do see Naruto wearing the scarf [[spoiler:right before they share their first kiss]], it's not actually real; it symbolizes how Hinata's love has ''finally'' reached him. TheStinger, set years later, shows Hinata knitting a new scarf. |
| 289 | * SceneryPorn: Toneri's Castle is breathtaking to look at. |
| 290 | * SchizoTech: The Chakra Cannon isn't too hard to swallow, considering it's still basically a ninja weapon, but during [[spoiler:Naruto and Hinata's wedding]], Ino has ''a freakin' [=iPhone=]!'' |
| 291 | * SealedWithAKiss: The film ends with [[spoiler:Naruto and Hinata]] sharing their FirstKiss. |
| 292 | * SecondActBreakup: In the second act of the movie, Naruto finally confesses his love to Hinata after he spent some time [[EveryoneCanSeeIt blatantly showing his feelings for her]] and found himself [[CannotSpitItOut unable to spit it out]]. The "breakup" part happens when [[MomentKiller the tender moment gets ruined]] by Toneri's arrival and Hinata [[spoiler:coldly "rejects" Naruto and walks into Toneri's arms]]. Seeing his rival in love in distress, Toneri [[KickTheDog taunts Naruto further]] by telling him that [[spoiler:he and Hinata are going to get married]]. The nail in the coffin is when Naruto ''begs'' Hinata to tell him that everything that just transpired is all a lie...[[spoiler:only for Hinata to avert her eyes and stay silent, which leaves Naruto utterly heartbroken]]. {{Subverted|Trope}} in that [[spoiler:the "breakup" isn't real and Hinata's behavior throughout the entire scene is all just an act--Hinata is still deeply in love with Naruto, and she only pretended to reject him and accept Toneri's marriage proposal as part of her plan to rescue Hanabi and destroy the Tenseigan core orb. When she's later reunited with Naruto, she immediately apologizes to him for hurting his feelings, though Naruto tells her that he already understands why she did it, and forgives her]]. |
| 293 | * SeductionAsOneUpmanship: It's revealed that Naruto's childhood infatuation with Sakura in the early chapters/episodes of the story was actually his attempt at one upping his rival Sasuke, whom Sakura herself was actually in love with. |
| 294 | * SerialEscalation: Even more so than the Fourth Shinobi World War. And this time, there are giant falling rocks that can blow up a planet and Naruto having a CockFight with Toneri over Hinata, ''IN SPACE!'' |
| 295 | * ShipperOnDeck: Sakura turns out to be quite the Naruto/Hinata fangirl, assuming a CoolBigSis role towards Hinata and helping Naruto realize Hinata's true feelings and intentions. |
| 296 | ** [[AllThereInTheManual In the novelization]], upon finding out that Naruto confessed his love to Hinata [[spoiler:and got rejected]], Shikamaru thinks to himself that everyone in the Konoha 11 and other surrounding friends has been a Naruto/Hinata shipper for quite some time, but they continually worried about it throughout the years due to [[CannotSpitItOut Hinata's shyness]] and [[ObliviousToLove Naruto's obliviousness]] towards [[EveryoneCanSeeIt her feelings]]. |
| 297 | * ShoutOut: Some parts of the movie's plot share similarities with those of ''[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tale_of_the_Bamboo_Cutter The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter]]'': |
| 298 | ** Hinata and Kaguya both are princesses in their respective stories. |
| 299 | ** Hinata's ancestors, the Otsutsuki clan, are from the Moon--while Princess Kaguya actually is from the Moon. Expanding on that, both the matriarch of the Otsutsuki clan and the protagonist of the old folklore share the exact same first name. It's hard to believe that it's a mere coincidence. |
| 300 | ** Hinata acts strangely after getting her vision, and she chooses to not tell Naruto what was wrong after he questions her--similar to how Princess Kaguya acts strangely and chooses to not tell her adoptive parents that she's from the Moon rather than Earth after they question her. Both princesses act strangely partly because they knew they would eventually [[spoiler:leave their loved ones behind]]. |
| 301 | ** When Hinata [[spoiler:"rejects" Naruto and "accepts" Toneri's marriage proposal]], she gives Naruto her [[RedStringOfFate red scarf]] as [[spoiler:a parting gift]]--similar to how Princess Kaguya gives a sad letter of apology and the elixir of life to the Emperor [[spoiler:as parting gifts after she rejects him and returns to the Moon]]. |
| 302 | ** Naruto [[DespairEventHorizon completely loses his will to live]] after Hinata [[spoiler:"rejects" him and leaves with Toneri]]--similar to how the Emperor couldn't bear to live forever without Princess Kaguya. |
| 303 | * SingleTargetSexuality: Hinata has only ever loved Naruto. After Naruto realizes he's in love with Hinata, he makes it clear that he will only ever love her. It's this fact that allows [[ShipperOnDeck Sakura]] [[spoiler:to snap Naruto out of his depression in order to rescue Hinata]], and at the end of the movie, Naruto tells Hinata that [[spoiler:he wants to spend every single day until he dies with her, and ''only her'']]. |
| 304 | * SkilledButNaive: Toneri is a villainous version, he is shown to very skilled with the power that the Tenseigan gives him. But due to a lack of proper battle experience, overconfidence in his own abilities, as well as underestimating his opponents make him this trope. He even [[spoiler:gets a literal green-horn in his enhanced power mode. His inexperience leads to his undoing. In the final battle, he falls for Naruto's clone feints, and that leaves him open to Naruto's powerful chakra-imbued punch]]. |
| 305 | * SmallRoleBigImpact: Sasuke may have been DemotedToExtra, but if he hadn't arrived in Konoha when he did with Hiashi in tow, then [[spoiler:the Hokage Monument would have been reduced to dust, Kakashi and countless others would have been killed and the Raikage would have blown up the moon, killing Naruto and co]]. |
| 306 | * SmugSuper: Toneri believes that with the doujutsu at his disposal he's invincible. [[spoiler:It takes Naruto defeating him and Hinata taking out those eyes (as those were her sister's) to disabuse him of that notion]]. |
| 307 | * SnowMeansLove: Naruto and Hinata met on a snowy day [[ChildhoodFriendRomance when they were children]] before they enrolled in the Academy, he confesses his love to her [[spoiler:and later proposes to her]] during the present-day wintertime, [[spoiler:their first kiss]] takes place in the snowy sky, and TheStinger shows them playing in the snow [[spoiler:with their children]]. |
| 308 | * TheSociopath: Toneri clearly shows sociopathic tendencies. |
| 309 | * SpeakNowOrForeverHoldYourPeace: The mayhem resulting from [[spoiler:Naruto and the others trying to save Hinata and Hanabi manages to interrupt Toneri's attempted marriage to Hinata]]. |
| 310 | * SpoilerOpening: In commemoration for the premiere of this movie, a two episode special of ''Naruto Shippuden'' was dedicated to exploring the sisterly relationship between Hinata and Hanabi. For those two episodes, and for a few episodes afterwards, the opening, while still retaining the same song (Opening 16: "Silhouette" by KANA-BOON), had the visuals changed to be a trailer for this movie. It had many snippets of the fight scenes, along with showcasing snippets of Naruto and Hinata's gradual romance over the course of this movie and the series as a whole. |
| 311 | * SquishyWizard: Toneri manages to display powerful jutsu with his Tenseigan but suffers from a lack of close combat skills. He does get a SuperMode later and does match Naruto for a time, but it soon becomes clear that even with that new power he is completely unable to last a protracted battle against the equally powerful but more highly trained and experienced Naruto. |
| 312 | * StalkerWithACrush: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. After Naruto realizes he's in love with Hinata, he is twice shown following her at night when they're on the moon. First was when he notices her walking through the forest and he realizes that she was making [[RedStringOfFate the red scarf]] for him. Second was when he stands by a tree and she is sitting on a rock near a lake, still knitting away at the scarf, after she spent the whole day not talking to him (because she was thinking about her vision in the ruins and was also depressed about Hanabi). However, his love for her is genuine and he is very clearly shown to truly care about her, which is in stark contrast to Toneri's {{lust}}ful [[{{Yandere}} overobsessive]] [[VillainousCrush crush]] on her. This is {{iron|y}}ic since Hinata herself was a {{Downplayed|Trope}} version of this trope towards Naruto in Part I (and ''only'' in Part I, because [[CharacterDevelopment she completely dropped this behavior]] in Part II). |
| 313 | * SweetAndSourGrapes: Hinata worked so hard to give Naruto a red scarf, only for Toneri to destroy it out of spite. When its remains were brought to Naruto (who saw how much effort she put into making it), he wholeheartedly accepts it anyway, and he tells her that he'll cherish it forever, which makes her happy. |
| 314 | * SympathyForTheDevil: Despite everything Toneri has done and the two mutually hating each other because [[LoveTriangle they both love Hinata]], Naruto still finds it in himself [[spoiler:to save Toneri from a painful and excruciating death at the last minute]]. Hinata then [[spoiler:shows Toneri the place where his branch family exterminated the main branch explaining why his views were misguided, and they both offer him a chance to return back to Earth with them]]. |
| 315 | * TableSpace: Toneri and Hinata dine fine meals while positioned at opposite ends on a long table. When Hinata tries to strike a conversation with Toneri on why he shouldn't destroy the earth, he shoots it down, symbolizing the "opulent but hollow" aspect of the trope. This is in contrast to an earlier scene, where Naruto and Hinata ate fairly simpler fare, yet are seated relatively closer together and are able to talk with one another. |
| 316 | * TearsOfJoy: Hinata does this twice, when Naruto wholeheartedly accepts her red scarf, despite it being ruined by Toneri, and later when Naruto [[spoiler:reaffirms his love for her when he proposes to her, happy that her affections have ''at long last'' been reciprocated]]. |
| 317 | * TechnicianVersusPerformer: Naruto being the Technician to Toneri's Performer. Comes up in the climax when they fight each other, Toneri's newly acquired Tenseigan gives him access to a lot of flashy and destructive jutsu. Naruto while not lacking on the flashy himself, by this point employs the skills he acquired from years of fighting experience along with his strength and determination. The Technician wins out as the Toneri's newly acquired abilities couldn't match up to the battle-hardened Naruto. Case in point: Toneri's {{BFS}} laser gets defeated by a fairly basic move (a chakra imbued fist). |
| 318 | * TextileWorkIsFeminine: This movie reveals that [[TomboyWithAGirlyStreak Kushina]] and Hinata both enjoy knitting scarves. |
| 319 | * TimeSkip: The movie takes place about two years after the Fourth Shinobi World War ends. The film takes place during the winter, while [[spoiler:Naruto and Hinata's wedding]] takes place during the spring (which may or may not be the following spring as implied by supplemental materials). |
| 320 | ** [[WordOfGod Kishimoto explained]] why there is a TimeSkip: He wanted Naruto to be at least 18 (legally an adult) before [[spoiler:he and Hinata got married]]. Since Naruto's birthday is in October and he turned 17 during the War, he's actually 19 here. In his commentary for [[AllThereInTheManual the movie's program guide]], screenwriter Maruo Kyozuka confirmed that Naruto's 19 in this movie. |
| 321 | * ThisCannotBe: Toneri is in complete disbelief when [[spoiler:he got defeated by Naruto's punch, and when the Tenseigan reverts back into a Byakugan immediately afterward]]. |
| 322 | * [[SwiperNoSwiping Toneri No Destroying]]: Hinata tries to talk-no-jutsu Toneri out of his omnicidal plan twice. One when they are [[spoiler:both having dinner together]] and one [[spoiler:when she is caught red-handed trying to destroy the Tenseigan Core orb, right before Toneri inserts his green orbs inside her and turns her into a mindless puppet]]. Given Toneri's OmnicidalManiac and SmugSuper status, it's not surprising that it fails both times. It takes [[spoiler:Toneri breaking down and being utterly humiliated upon being defeated by Naruto to finally get him to listen]]. |
| 323 | * TrailersAlwaysSpoil: Thanks to the trailers for the movie being released a few weeks before the manga actually ended, several parts of the manga finale were spoiled, such as the fact that both Naruto and Sasuke survive their final battle, Sasuke fully completing his HeelFaceTurn, Kakashi becoming the Sixth Hokage, and (rather subtly) Naruto losing his right arm. They also give away that Naruto and Hinata become an OfficialCouple. |
| 324 | * {{Tritagonist}}: Sakura is this here, as [[ShipperOnDeck she actively helps Hinata in getting her feelings across to Naruto]], she later [[spoiler:helps Naruto out of his depression by giving him an important talk on Hinata's true feelings and intentions, and is ultimately the one who rescues Hanabi (along with Sai)]]. She even gets the remains of Hinata's ruined red scarf, which sets up a heartwarming scene between Naruto and Hinata. |
| 325 | * TroubledFetalPosition: Naruto spends a whole day and night curled up like this after he wakes up from his three-day AngstComa because he's still depressed about [[spoiler:Hinata "rejecting" him]]. |
| 326 | * TwiceShy: When Naruto realizes he's in love with Hinata, they both end up in this situation...as {{iron|y}}ic as it is. |
| 327 | * TheUnchosenOne: Despite being TheChosenOne in the main series, Naruto is this here as he stumbled across Toneri's plan via saving Hinata from being abducted by being at the right place at the right time, [[ThePowerOfLove his love for Hinata]] being the driving force of his involvement, with his assistance being instrumental [[spoiler:to Hinata destroying the Tenseigan Core orb, and Toneri's defeat]]. |
| 328 | * UnreliableExpositor: Toneri's explanations are filled with half-truths and biases, painting Hagoromo in the worst possible light while making his brother Hamura out to be the one who needs to put everything back into order by way of genocide. [[spoiler:These claims are later refuted by Hamura himself]]. Furthermore, his argument of using the Tenseigan to punish the world for using chakra for war falls flat when you know that while the shinobi world has undergone war it also went through periods of peace. [[spoiler:It's later revealed that the clans of the moon were wiped out by infighting from using the Tenseigan]]. |
| 329 | * UnrequitedLoveSwitcheroo: PlayedWith. While Hinata does still love Naruto, by the first act of the movie she thinks that she will forever be a HopelessSuitor and decides to stop pursuing him. Thus, when Naruto realizes he's in love with her, [[{{Irony}} she is completely oblivious to his very obvious feelings]]. When he confesses his love to her, she is incredibly happy... [[spoiler:for a moment. She chooses to "reject" him, not because she doesn't reciprocate anymore, but rather because she had already resolved to "accept" Toneri's marriage proposal as a ploy to save Hanabi and the Earth]]. Of course, it all works out by the end of the movie [[spoiler:as Hinata wholeheartedly accepts Naruto's proposal and they ''finally'' become an [[OfficialCouple Official Couple]].]] |
| 330 | * UnresolvedSexualTension: Naruto and Hinata, for most of the movie. It first became apparent during the [[WarArc Fourth Shinobi World War Arc]], but judging by the dialogue from the other characters, it's actually been going on for much longer than that.And as confirmed during the genjutsu dream sequence, where Naruto specifically remembers Hinata giving him her healing ointmet, it's been going on since the Chunin Exams arc -- Naruto's ObliviousToLove status and [[NoSocialSkills lack of social skills]] meant he didn't realize that many of his interactions with Hinata throughout the series ''did'' have underlying romantic tension. The purpose of this film is to ''finally'' resolve it. |
| 331 | * VillainBall: |
| 332 | ** Toneri holds this when Naruto confronts him in his base, [[spoiler:ordering a brainwashed Hinata to fight Naruto as a display of his power and thinking that Naruto couldn't bear fighting the woman he loves]]. Instead Naruto uses this as an opportunity to [[spoiler:rescue Hinata by breaking Toneri's hold over her. The two of them then destroy the Tenseigan Core orb making Toneri's eventual defeat assured]]. |
| 333 | ** In their final fight, while Hinata is locked in a cage, Toneri could have easily defeated Naruto by using his chakra drain on him. Instead he opts to have a big flashy CockFight with him in order to test his Tenseigan and brutally kill Naruto in [[ForcedToWatch front of Hinata]]. [[spoiler:It doesn't end very well for him]], as noted in the HumiliationConga entry. Course this assumes draining Naruto would have been as easy as the first time, given Naruto knew about this attack (and also held a scarf that bore Hinata's, and thus Hamura's, chakra and proved strong enough to negate the chakra drain effect and destroy the Tenseigan form in Toneri's eyes). |
| 334 | * VillainousBreakdown: By the end of the film, Toneri goes through one. It starts when he [[spoiler:goes to the Tenseigan Core orb only to find it destroyed by Naruto and Hinata, His composure starts to crumble but its not until after he loses his fight against Naruto, and Hinata reclaiming Hanabi's stolen eyes that he completely loses it and becomes unhinged]]. |
| 335 | * VillainousCrush: Toneri has one on Hinata. And if you look [[http://images.saiyanisland.com/showphoto.php?photo=16061 here]], both of them are dressed in wedding attire. |
| 336 | * [[HeroicRROD Villainous RROD]]: Toneri suffers blackouts and seizures as a side effect of acquiring the Tenseigan. |
| 337 | * WalkingTheEarth: Sasuke Uchiha has been doing this. [[spoiler:He still stops by Konoha to destroy a giant meteor as a favor to Naruto]]. |
| 338 | * WartsAndAll: The movie shows that [[OneTrueLove Hinata]] loves Naruto for who he is, not for the hero he is supposed to be, which is one of the reasons why [[spoiler:Naruto marries ''her'']]. Hinata has admired, acknowledged, and loved him ''for him'' since the very beginning. Both [[https://66.media.tumblr.com/666ba3b42bb25fe5b92507cef32effbd/8c21999253787a0e-3c/s500x750/51135a92041505a1b5bad7cf380164c16f612131.png Naruto's flashback]] in Chapter 538 and Kishimoto in the aforementioned 2015 New York Comic Con interview confirm that Hinata was the very first person to acknowledge him for who he is, ''long'' before Iruka did. Hinata loved him long before he ever became the hero in the public's eye, and she'll love him long after his story fades into legend. |
| 339 | --> '''Naruto:''' [[spoiler:"[[InsecureLoveInterest This whole time, you always loved me for the way I am]]."]] |
| 340 | * WeaponOfMassDestruction: The Tenseigan Core orb has [[spoiler:wiped out almost everyone on the moon]]. Toneri's Tenseigan also counts. In the climactic final fight it turn into a {{BFS}} [[spoiler:which cleaves the freaking moon in half]]! |
| 341 | * WeddingFinale: This is considered to be the GrandFinale of the manga (given that it's the first {{canon}} movie of the franchise), and ends with [[OfficialCouple Naruto and Hinata]]'s wedding during the ending credits. |
| 342 | * WeddingSmashers: In the climax, our heroes crash in on [[spoiler:Toneri's attempted wedding with Hinata]]. {{Averted|Trope}} however with [[spoiler:Naruto and Hinata's wedding]], as it goes off without a hitch. |
| 343 | * WeddingsInJapan: [[spoiler:Naruto and Hinata]] opt for a Shinto ceremony as their wedding. This explains why their second kiss takes place during their reception, as Shinto weddings don't have the bride and groom kiss each other. |
| 344 | * WellIntentionedExtremist: |
| 345 | ** Toneri claims to be this as he states that he is upset with the wars mankind has caused and fought in using chakra; thus he wants to "punish" them according to Hamura's decree. [[spoiler:He's deluded, his branch distorted Hamura's decree, and Hamura himself telling Hinata that he never wanted to destroy the world his brother developed]]. |
| 346 | ** The Fourth Raikage, A, plays this straight. His plan to blow up the moon as a last resort [[ARareSentence makes perfect sense from a pragmatic standpoint]] - but doing so while a Hyuga and several Leaf ninja are on there is met with understandable derision from some of Naruto's allies. |
| 347 | * WhamShot: During the sequence where Naruto and Hinata's memories were merged and he was physically walking through her memories, when Iruka asked his students who they'd want to spend their last day with, the adult Naruto sees that the young Hinata wrote ''his name'' down. It's not a surprise to the audience, but it does come as a shock to Naruto. |
| 348 | * WhatHappenedToTheMouse: In the ending credits that features [[spoiler:Naruto and Hinata's wedding]], Sasuke is notably absent. ''Why'' he would miss [[spoiler:his best friend's wedding]] is anyone's guess, and many fans have continually made a ruckus over it. The closest explanation the movie provides it that as soon as the threat to Konoha had passed, Sasuke went back on whatever journey he set for himself. |
| 349 | * WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove: Naruto himself, but only when it comes to ''romantic'' love, and ''only'' when it's towards him. It functions as the final lesson he has to learn in order to fully move on from his depressing childhood and live a happy fulfilling life. Thus, when he finally gets an answer, [[TwiceShy he can't look Hinata in the eye afterwards]], as it becomes clear to him that [[OneTrueLove she is the one with the unconditional love he has been searching for]]. |
| 350 | * WhereAreTheyNowEpilogue: A two-page manga set after the events of the movie was released in the movie booklet, and it features [[spoiler:Naruto and Hinata's first date]]. |
| 351 | * WhiteHairBlackHeart: Toneri has medium-length white hair, and is the main villain of the movie. |
| 352 | * WorfHadTheFlu: Due to having just recovered from a near-fatal chakra drain, Naruto was left unable to use the Six Paths Mode he used against Kaguya when fighting against Toneri. True to form, Naruto [[spoiler:manages to win despite this because he still had a great amount of chakra to fall back on and he is a seasoned fighter, having years of battle experience on his side]]. |
| 353 | * WouldntHitAGirl: [[spoiler:Toneri forces the brainwashed Hinata]] to attack Naruto, thinking that Naruto wouldn't be able to fight back because of his love for her. This is true to an extent: Naruto doesn't even ''try'' to attack [[spoiler:Hinata]]; he ends up dodging her attacks instead. However, once he realizes that [[spoiler:she's been hypnotized by Toneri]], he frees her [[spoiler:from the mind-control]] ''without'' harming her. |
| 354 | * XanatosSpeedChess: Hinata's original plan in [[spoiler:destroying the Tenseigan Core orb was to wait for Toneri to drop his guard while she covertly went to where the orb was held in order to destroy it]]. It hit a snag when [[spoiler:she gets caught and ends up hypnotized. She later gets freed by Naruto and she takes advantage of Toneri going through a seizure to resume her original plan and does so, but her attacks alone are not enough to destroy the orb. She then accepts Naruto's assistance, and they perform a combination attack together which manages to destroy the orb]], fulfilling her objective. |
