9* Naruto defending Hinata from bullies when they were children. Heck, just about anytime Naruto [[https://web.archive.org/web/20150511005744/http://annalovesfiction.tumblr.com:80/post/117815868616 shows his protective side towards Hinata]] is just a beautiful sight to behold.
10* The Academy scene in the second flashback of the prologue. Both Naruto and Hinata are having issues figuring out the answer to Iruka's question: "[[DrivingQuestion If the end of the world came]], [[OneTrueLove who would you spend your last day with?]]" Naruto, having no friends or family, gives up and makes a paper airplane instead. Hinata catches eye of the plane, and turns back to watch the scene of Iruka scolding Naruto. She smiles and writes down Naruto's name. This memory is one of the many that helps [[LoveRevelationEpiphany Naruto finally understand and realize Hinata's feelings for him and his own feelings for her]].
11* Naruto ''finally'' gets the love and appreciation from Konoha after ''over 12 years'' of misguided hatred towards him. Same for Hinata, her efforts and hard work finally paid off.
12* Hanabi and Hinata's early interactions in the movie are just adorable. You can see the love the two sisters have for each other.
13* Sakura [[ShipperOnDeck constantly encouraging Hinata to pursue Naruto]]. She also gives some CoolBigSis vibes during this moment:
14-->'''Hinata''': Why are you helping me?\
15'''Sakura''': We need to support each other.
16* The ointment scene. During the mission, the team passes an old ninja village. In an abandoned house, Naruto and Hinata are eating ramen, and after telling her that he needed "to take a leak," Naruto tries to step outside the house [[DistractedByTheSexy while he's still looking at her]]...unaware that there's a spiderweb in front of him. The web gets in his eyes, he panics a bit, tries to remove it before losing his balance and falling in the stairs outside the abandoned house.
17-->'''Hinata''': ''(rushes to help Naruto)'' Naruto-kun, are you okay?
18** Hinata gives some ointment to Naruto as [[CallBack he references]] the Chunin Exams when she already gave him some.
19--->'''Hinata''': ''(surprised)'' You remember that?\
20'''Naruto''': Of course I do.
21** Naruto tries, without really succeeding, to apply the ointment on his wounded back himself, his arms were stretched out as far as they could go, his head was buried under his arm and his legs were folded and pressed against his upper body. The scene cuts again to Hinata applying the ointment on Naruto's back for him. A rather pleased-looking Naruto apologizes for the inconvenience, and Hinata just smiles back at him.
22* Naruto's {{Adorkable}} LoveConfession to Hinata via FreudianSlip:
23-->'''Hinata''': My younger sister is in so much danger, and here I am knitting. [[HeroicSelfDeprecation I'm a terrible big sister, aren't I?]]\
24'''Naruto''': That's not true at all. You've come all this way just to save Hanabi.\
25'''Hinata''': If only I'd stayed at home with her, then...\
26'''Naruto''': I swear I'll rescue Hanabi! So don't worry.\
27'''Hinata''': Thank you. You're so kind, Naruto-kun.\
28'''Naruto''': ''(flustered)'' [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial Hey, I'm not just being kind because I love you or anything. I'm just worried about Hanabi]].\
29'''Hinata''': ''(taken aback)'' [[RepeatWhatYouJustSaid What did you just say? What did you say?!]]\
30'''Naruto''': I said I'm worried about Hanabi.\
31'''Hinata''': Before that...\
32'''Naruto''': Before that...Hinata, I...I love you.
33** Hinata's face right after this. It's like she's thinking "I can't believe it...Is this '''really''' happening?" Too bad it only lasts for a moment before Toneri ruins it.
34* Then Toneri comes before Hinata can properly respond and she deliberately goes with him so she can have a better chance of saving Hanabi. Naruto mistakes her actions for a real rejection and crosses the DespairEventHorizon for four days, three of which he spent in an AngstComa...until Sakura snaps him out of it [[LoveInformant by telling him]] that [[SingleTargetSexuality Hinata has only ever loved him]], similar to how she herself has only ever loved Sasuke, and that will ''never'' change. It gives Naruto his HeroicSecondWind and he makes the following HeroicVow:
35--> '''Naruto''': Hinata...This big idiot finally understands...The real meaning of the scarf you gave to me when you went with Toneri...I know now, from the scarf you painstakingly knitted and took so long to finish, that your love can't be unraveled so easily...Wait for me...This whole time, you always loved me for the way I am...Now, as a man, there's something I must tell you...Hinata, I swear I will save you!
36** Naruto's HeroicVow mixes with TearJerker and Awesome, because it confirms that [[InsecureLoveInterest he's insecure around Hinata]], which was implied by Kiba in Chapter 611, but he proves to still be the {{Determinator}} we all know and adore as he strives to save Hinata.
37* The scene where Toneri checks out what Hinata is dreaming about while she is asleep is funny and heartwarming at the same time. To point, Toneri sees Naruto sporting some of his goofiest faces. The scene demonstrates that Hinata loves Naruto [[WartsAndAll just the way he is]], and not as the hero who saved the world in the Fourth Shinobi World War. [[MoodWhiplash Toneri doesn't take it very well]].
38* Toneri asks Hinata to knit him a scarf like the one she made for Naruto. Hinata was already going to do whatever Toneri requested to avoid suspicion, but this one has its benefits. Hinata uses this request as an opportunity to knit Naruto a replacement scarf as a way to apologize to him and reaffirm her love for him.
39* When Hinata is reunited with Naruto in Toneri's base, she apologizes to him for hurting his feelings by going with Toneri right after he confessed his love to her. He responds by saying that he understands that she did it to save Hanabi, and that he already forgave her.
40* Naruto asking for the [[RedStringOfFate red scarf]] Hinata was planning to give him. She sadly states that it's tattered, but he promises to cherish it forever; the fact that it's reduced to scraps doesn't matter to him. His kind gesture leaves Hinata on the brink of TearsOfJoy. Meanwhile, [[ShipperOnDeck Shikamaru, Sakura and Sai]] quietly observe the tender moment and smile because two of their closest friends have ''finally'' come together.
41* Killer Bee refuses to fire the chakra cannon at the moon while Naruto is on it.
42* [[HoldingHands Hinata holding Naruto's hand]] and protecting him from Toneri's chakra drain by transferring her own chakra to him.
43* A small one, and easily missed, but when the Raikage receives a messenger saying that Kurama wrote them a message on the moon, they call him exactly that: Kurama. Not "Kyuubi".
44* Hinata and Naruto offering Toneri a chance to come with them to live on Earth.
45* Naruto explaining to Hinata that the green scarf he was wearing in the first act was from his late mother and not another girl. This clear-up relieves Hinata and Naruto brings her further joy when he sets aside Kushina's scarf in favor of cherishing ''her'' scarf. Kushina's scarf is the last memory of one of Naruto's parents on Earth, but he is now putting it aside in favor of Hinata's scarf, as this {{canon}} movie reveals that [[OneTrueLove Hinata is the one and only person alive who holds the unconditional love he sought from others]] during his lonely childhood.
46** This quote from the [[AllThereInTheManual novelization]] that describes what happens before this scene:
47--->"Naruto and Hinata stood atop a sand knot, facing each other. They gazed into each other's eyes. When Naruto smiled, Hinata smiled as well. They could both feel that there were no longer any reservations, barriers, or doubts between them. Hinata went to embrace Naruto."
48* Naruto's proposal to Hinata at the end of the movie as they return to Earth. And then her TearsOfJoy turn into the [[RedStringOfFate red scarf]] she's been trying to give him all this time. The scarf is not actually real; it symbolizes that her feelings have ''finally'' reached his heart.
49--> '''Naruto''': Hinata?\
50'''Hinata''': What?\
51'''Naruto''': Remember back in the Academy, when we were asked, "If the end of the world came, who would you spend your last day with?" I couldn't write anyone's name down. I didn't know my parents, and I didn't have any friends...But now, I know exactly whom I'd choose. [[GrowOldWithMe I want to be with you. Now and forever, until I die...I want to be with you, Hinata]]!"\
52'''Hinata''': Naruto-kun! ''([[TearsOfJoy joyful]], [[SparklingStreamOfTears sparkling tears flow from her eyes]])''
53* Naruto [[https://web.archive.org/web/20180610025244/http://lehkarlogal.tumblr.com/post/124916449871/naruto-winking-at-hinata winking]] at Hinata.
54* As Naruto and Hinata are leaving the moon, their past selves run in place of them. In each one Naruto wears the [[RedStringOfFate red scarf]] that Hinata made him. First it's their Part II selves, then it's their Part I selves, and then their pre-series child selves.
55** Once Naruto and Hinata make it out of the collapsing structure, Naruto tells Hinata to grab onto him and to not let go. Hinata happily answers, "Yes! Never...!" Naruto blasts a Rasengan behind him, which propels them outside the cave. Shikamaru chastises him that he'll crash into the ceiling if he keeps doing that, and Naruto exclaims, "Do you seriously think I'll let us stop there?" He and Hinata are blasted in mid-air in front of the moon. [[HeldGaze There's about ten seconds of silence as they look into each other's eyes]], Naruto pulls Hinata closer with ''both of his hands on her cheeks'', and they share TheBigDamnKiss. It's the most romantic of romantic moments you'll see in this series, and it's beautiful! Bonus points once you figure out what exactly Naruto meant with his response to Shikamaru: he was ''planning'' on giving Hinata TheBigDamnKiss!
56** Then there's Naruto's last line before the credits roll, which sums up how he feels in regards to Hinata's love and care for him [[ChildhoodFriendRomance since the day they first met as children]]:
57--->'''Naruto''': Hinata...thank you.
58* Naruto and Hinata's wedding in general:
59** In the group shot, if you look closely, [[OfficialCouple Sai and Ino]] are HoldingHands. Hanabi is also holding [[PreciousPhoto a picture of Neji]].
60** Iruka, [[ManlyTears crying]] TearsOfJoy. Considering his influence in Naruto's life and his role as his [[ParentalSubstitute father figure]], it must have really touched him to see that Naruto found someone who really loves him. It's even more HeartwarmingInHindsight once you've read ''Literature/KonohaHidenThePerfectDayForAWedding''. Also, Iruka and Kakashi, who are [[ParentalSubstitute the closest thing to fathers]] that Naruto has ever had, are shown standing directly to Naruto's right side, which is traditionally where his family would be. Both look [[SoProudOfYou incredibly happy and proud of the great man that Naruto has become]].
61** Tenten, Sakura, Hinata, and Ino taking a photo with Ino's [[SchizoTech iPhone]].
62** [[ShipperOnDeck Sakura's]] smile at the end, right before the group shot. It's full of love and warmth due to the fact that two of her friends have finally found happiness with each other.
63** And then at the end, Naruto and Hinata's wedding kiss. If you look carefully, you will see that it's much bolder than the first: Hinata's hands are on Naruto's chest, his hands are on her waist, and their mouths are visibly open. In the time between the moon mission and the wedding, Naruto and Hinata have grown much more comfortable and open with each other.
64** The entire ending credits are just simply beautiful.
65* TheStinger with [[BabiesEverAfter Boruto and Himawari Uzumaki]]. After years of loneliness, [[YouAreNotAlone Naruto doesn't have to come to an empty home anymore]]. The fact that Naruto and Hinata's children are so overjoyed to see their daddy that they pay no mind to shoes and run outside to greet him barefoot. In the middle of ''winter.''
66* In the movie booklet, there is a two-page manga short [[WordOfGod written by Kishimoto himself]], which is set after the events of the movie and aptly called "''After The Last''", about Naruto and Hinata's first date. Naruto is reading one of Sai's books on dating and reads that the guy should always pay for the meal. On their date, he notices how expensive the restaurant is and starts panicking. Hinata peeks into his wallet with her Byakugan, sees how short on cash he is, and suggests that they go to [[TrademarkFavoriteFood Ichiraku Ramen]] instead.
67* The artwork used for the movie's Blu-ray release. We see Naruto and Hinata being congratulated by their friends for saving the earth and ''finally'' becoming an OfficialCouple when they and the Hanabi rescue team return to Konoha. We see Kiba with his arm around Naruto's neck, ribbing to him, Choji clapping, Shino using his bugs to form hearts ,Lee and Guy cheering for them, Konohamaru looking happy for his big brother-figure, Iruka giving a proud fatherly smile, the girls squealing and crowding Hinata, and Hanabi looking proud that her big sister is finally with the man she loves. We also see Sai drawing the moment, preserving it for memory.
