| 1 | * GodCreatedCanonForeigner: Creator/MasashiKishimoto designed Sakura's parents, Mebuki and Kizashi, specifically for this film. However, like all of the previous films in the franchise, this film is [[NonSerialMovie non-canon]]. Also, their subsequent appearances have only been in the ''Shippuden'' anime {{filler}}. In [[http://web.archive.org/web/20170924111946/http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:164031 this 2014 Fuji TV Kobayashi interview]], Kishimoto reveals that [[TheScrappy Sakura's unpopularity]] and [[CreatorsPest his own antipathy towards her]] are the reasons why her parents are not canon. |
| 2 | * GodNeverSaidThat: Kishimoto's involvement with the production of this [[NonSerialMovie non-canon]] movie, which is heavily loaded with Naruto/Sakura ShipTeasing, made a lot of their {{shipping}} fans to claim that the author was giving an explicit endorsement of the pairing and that it was meant to be the official one. In reality, Kishimoto was only involved with the characters' designs and story draft[[note]]This in contrast with the {{canon}} movies ''[[Anime/TheLastNarutoTheMovie The Last]]'' and ''Anime/BorutoNarutoTheMovie'', in which he served respectively as a story supervisor and actual screenwriter[[/note]], while the actual script of the movie was done by Yuka Miyata, who was infamous for her Naruto/Sakura-teasing [[ArmedWithCanon scene additions]] to the anime {{filler}} that didn't exist in the manga (although she stopped doing this and even seems to have ''left'' the anime after the manga ended and the anime continued to drag on, for [[ShipSinking obvious reasons]]). |
| 3 | * TheOtherDarrin: In English, Kakuzu's one line is provided by Creator/NeilKaplan (Madara) instead of Creator/FredTatasciore. Tatasciore was still credited as his character despite the change. |
| 4 | * RecycledScript: The movie is infamously guilty of blatantly recycling scenes from several chapters: |
| 5 | ** A scene late in the movie rehashes a scene from [[WhamEpisode Chapter 437]] (Hinata's sincere AnguishedDeclarationOfLove), word-for-word, except with Sakura rather than Hinata. |
| 6 | ** The movie recycles scenes from Kushina's flashback from Chapters 500-504. |
| 7 | * TrollingCreator: Promotional material put focus on [[ShipTease teasing]] [[FanPreferredCouple Naruto/Hinata]] and Sasuke/Sakura, but the movie itself teases Naruto/Sakura. Ironically, the first two would later become {{Official Couple}}s, while the one this [[NonSerialMovie non-canon]] movie focuses on has [[Anime/TheLastNarutoTheMovie the next movie]] (which is the first {{canon}} movie of the franchise) [[LikeBrotherAndSister sinking it]]--never mind that [[ShipSinking it already sunk spectacularly]] in Chapter 469--''and'' even has Sakura (and the rest of [[TrueCompanions the Konoha 11]]) being a CoolBigSis and the ''biggest'' ShipperOnDeck for [[OfficialCouple Naruto/Hinata]]. |
