Neji and Hinata!

[Haruhi]

Does anybody else support these two as a pair other than just me? Withstanding the fact that they're related, that is.

I am somewhat curious since I recently watched the fight on CN.

[appletini]

i cant support it, no judgement though

[Gasaraki]

Dammit I have been looking for the source of the last image FOR EVER. He/she has a bunch of good stuff from what I've seen but I haven't found the actual homepage, anyone have any idea?

Edit: Neji sucks. His usefulness in the story ended when... the battle with Kidoumaru was over. Should have died then for some real impact. Hinata deserves better anyway =P

[Nano]

No, I don't think so. he tried to kill her. plus as you mentioned they are related, and even if that wern't a problem he's from the house branch, she's from the main.

did you change your name?

[Uchiha-Itachi]

those images are... intresting.. i think i would cringe if they had kids... but i wouldn't mind if they did pair up...

[Haruhi]

Okay. Maybe I didn't ask clearly enough.

*taps her "ban" button*

NOW, who wants Neji and Hinata to pair up? :D

[Suki]

This is disgusting. Incest?

Wrong.

[Haruhi]

This is disgusting. Incest?

Wrong.

You DO realize this is anime, right? o_O;

You forget, if those were Neji and Hinata kids, they'd have 2 heads, no chins etc.and saying things like "I love you dad-day!"

[DarkNataku]

^ i dont think neji would be good with kids. lol

[Haruhi]

You forget, if those were Neji and Hinata kids, they'd have 2 heads, no chins etc.and saying things like "I love you dad-day!"

And yet, they would still be far more acceptable than whatever Naruto and Hinata could produce.

[Uchiha-Itachi]

actually no because naruto and hinatas kids wouldnt be deformed like neji and hinatas. id rather see a lil blond haired kid with white eyes running around then a lil neji with 1 arm bigger than the other

[max payne]

I'm with him. Chinless wonders or annoying white eyed kids? you decide

[Denisa]

I guess the question is do you support the pairing because it's incest and that interests you for some odd reason? Or do you argue that it's not "true" incest?

I ask this because a lot of fans of this pairing claim that it's not incest because they are cousins and only close relations can be considered incest. They go nuts if you call it incest. They say that cousins marrying is not as taboo in other cultures and it should not be considered inbreeding. They argue that brothers, sisters, mothers, sons, fathers and daughters getting together is truly sick and squicky, but cousins are not that big a deal.

But I still find it ironic that they keep insisting that the pairing is not sicko incest, yet they call it "hyuugacest" ;)

[max payne]

taboo or not, the biological repercuissions (sp) speak for themselves

[Denisa]

taboo or not, the biological repercuissions (sp) speak for themselves
I agree. I am just repeating what hyuugacest fans always say.

[Uchiha-Itachi]

actually she is correct. Incest can only be in the immidiate family, therefore, i wouldnt mind hinata and neji pairing up. im not a fan of it, but i wouldnt mind

[max payne]

Their children wwould look like ths http://www.goesping.org/wp-content/uploads/2006/01/Fred_fredburger.thumbnailx.gif

[Uchiha-Itachi]

now thats scary but highly unlikely.however i could care less, cause that pair is impossible. hinata is a naruto otaku.

[DarkNataku]

yeah i think she is way into naruto to see anything else. i mean if she wasnt anymore than she would have meet face to face with him after he came back from the time skip instead of hiding.

[LadyAkuma]

Neji and Hinata are not compatible as a couple. Plus I agree with the people that say it's gross because it is. Bleh.

[Nano]

It's almost as bad as Sasuke and his brother, and you know it is so don't try to deny it all you Sasuke+Itachi fans.....

[Soluzar]

They are cousins, not brother and sister. There's nothing really so terribly about cousins gettin' it on. I don't see the problem with it. I find it hard to imagine that Kishi is going to write this into the storyline, but I can see what the motivation to put them together is... they'd make a very cute couple. Dark hair and pale skin makes for a very striking combination, that's some beautiful artwork in the first post.

I imagine in clans such as the Hyuuga, or the Uchiha, intermarriage between cousins is not at all uncommon. One may not dilute the blood if one wishes to continue producing powerful Hyuuga children, after all. You might all remember that Hinata's father has stated that there is none in which the Hyuuga blood flows so thickly as Neji, which means that breeding him against another clan member (even one so weak as Hinata) would have a good chance to produce children who would be exceptionally strong in the Hyuuga bloodline.

The only real problem with the pairing is that Hinata is still obssessed with Naruto, but I don't see it as out of the question that she might eventually give up on him, especially if it were requested by the clan. For Neji, marriage to Hinata would place him back into the main family, so all things considered, I don't think it's an impossible scenario... just rather unlikely.

Only time will tell, of course. Because of the possibility that this paring would bring Neji into the main family, I'm not inclined to be entirely skeptical about it.

[Haruhi]

Hyugacest? That's a new term to me. I'm not that into Naruto that I know all those slang words. But anyways, I've just liked the pair. I'm not some narrow-minded person who thinks it's "gross" mainly because of the fact that it IS anime/manga, after all. Among other things.

Also, the argument that their children might turn up deformed is a weak one, as shown by the Hyuga clan themselves. You'll notice ALL of them share similar traits (white eyes, dark hair, pale skin, chins), so it's likely that they do wed within the clan.

I guess the question is do you support the pairing because it's incest and that interests you for some odd reason? Or do you argue that it's not "true" incest?

"Hyugacest" /= Incest

And I don't think it's odd that I support incest pairings. I consider myself a mature enough fan to understand that it's fiction and that I won't be looking at things with such a childish attitude like most fans seem to be sporting here. Not necassarily in Naruto, but other series. Incest adds a unique twist to relationships, which I like quite a bit.

Intermarriage between cousins is one of the only ways to ensure the purity of the bloodline, and therefore is probably not at all uncommon in powerful clans such as the Hyuuga or the Uchiha. Marrying outside of the clan dilutes the bloodline; continue marrying outside of the clan, and eventually the bloodline will be lost. As it is, I imagine not everyone in the Hyuuga clan is born with the Byakugan. So, preserving the bloodline is essential to the survival of the clan and its kekkei genkai. (It was for a similar reason, after all, that the royal families of Europe so often intermarried.)

Therefore, as Soluzar said, the only real problem with a Neji/Hinata pairing is that Hinata is still obsessed with Naruto--feelings which can cause problems in any marriage, obviously. But I think eventually she'll come to realize that her feelings are not going to be returned, and her obsession with the boy will gradually fade. So there's a chance that a relationship between Hinata and Neji will work out.

[max payne]

You win. I can't argue with that, or I'm too tired to argue, whichever. It's still disgusting, I'm sure they're is at least a few Hyuuga's that are chinless wonders. They just bury them in a hole or something.

Besides, all this talk of purity in the bloodline kinda reminds me of hitler and the aryans, and I don't wanna go down that road.

But you have to understand that most Hyuugacest fans do not think it's incest and will get offended if you call it incest. That's why I was asking that question. You seem to be into the "incest" part of the relationship. Fine. Whatever floats your boat. But most Hyuugacest fans are not and don't like to dwell on it since they know most people are uncomfortable with it. They prefer to bring up the purity of the clan and the arranged marriage to combine both branches.

Incest adds a lot more than a unique "twist" to a relationship. But this doesn't seem like the best place to discuss such matters so I'll stop.

It should remind you more of cat breeders, or dog breeders. They know full well that if you control who breeds with whom, then you can minimise the chance of undesirable recessive traits. It's all about bringing genetic diversity into the bloodline on a controlled schedule. Not enough to dilute the pure breed, but just enough to keep them healthy.

I'm willing to bet that the majority of the Hyuuga clan don't have six toes, even if they do interbreed. That only happens when you have a really tiny genepool, and don't outcross for diversity and hybrid vigour.

What other fans think doesn't really matter to me. If they don't want to call it incest, fine. If they do, no big deal. Personally, I think cousins don't qualify as true incest. But, that's just me.

I was merely responding, because you addressed my support of incest relationships as "odd."

And I am interested as to what you think incest adds in a relationship. I think it adds a lot more emotion, drama, and intrigue to the characters.

[ardilla]

Im with the other people, i dont support it striclty becasue she loves naruto, so theres jsut really no point to it. Hmm but did anyone else notice when yamato was talking to sakura and said "i know you actually" and was cut off before he could probably say i know you love naruto. It would kill me if sakura loved sauske more than naruto after he tried to kill her strait up. Also im guessing sakura being the tard she is will probably fall in love with sai or some dumb crap even though he also was about to let her die when she was falling from the bridge. Also as for the incest thing, hmm seems to me like most clans with bloodline limits would be full of incest anwyays. I mean all the people in the clan have byakugan would mean they're definetly related by blood. Im not an advocate for incest or anything but im jsut saying to anywone saying its gross, the simple fact of the matter is that it would already have to be going on. Hell, who knows maybe advance bloodlines come from incest!!

anywyas, I don't think they are close enough related for incest problems to be a problem. But, i don't liek Neji.....he is a jerk.

Are you anime-only, by chance?

[Animematt55]

only seena couple episodes of the anime.

[Soluzar]

I don't tend to read the manga threads, since I'm consistently a chapter or 3 behind, so therefore I don't really know who is manga and who not. The only reason I ask is that I think he's been substantially more well-developed in Part 2, and substantially less of an arrogant jackass. Admittedly, the development is as a result of events in Part 1, but I don't think anyone can deny that he's changed a little, if they are reading the manga.

EDIT: Actually, I beg your pardon. The prime example was actually before the end of part one, so even an anime-only fan should have seen the change in Neji.

[Naster]

it's going to be funny when they make a spin-off series on narutoxhinata's kids.
they will have naruto's spirit with hinata's juken/byakugan. naruto/hinata disapear during the series, leaving the children alone in the village to live up to their father's legend..

lol terrible idea.

Kishimoto did say he was interested in doing a 2nd generation type series after he ends Naruto. He is going to bleed this thing till it's dry.

Has anyoen every actually done something like that?

Dragon Ball Z did it. And Kishimoto is a huge fan of Toriyama. Get ready for Naruto and Hinata's son, Naruhan.

i guess thats true. But the characters in DBZ didn't really age....

[Rain]

I'm indifferent, really. Hinata can be with whoever she wants.

Incest is defined as sexual relations and/or activity between close family members - persons who are closely related. Technically, cousins (assuming they are first, second, third etc.) wouldn't be as "close" as siblings; however, they still are closely related enough for it to be considered incest... by the book, anyway.

As for the term "Hyuugacest," what the hell?

[Haruhi]

As for the term "Hyuugacest," what the hell?

Beats me. Probably some lamer Narutard made up the word.

[HitokiriShadow]

Hinata x Neji 4tw!

I'd support Hinata x just about anyone other than Naruto, honestly. I take solice in the fact that this is a typical shonen series, so the hero WILL get the object of his affections and/or the most obvious pairing. One way or another, he'll get Sakura in the end.

As for Neji, he's great. He's one of my favorite characters. The others being Shikamaru (I love his laid back attitude) and Sasuke (far more interesting than Naruto).

Incest is hawt and they are cousins which we all know isn't much of an obstacle to romance in anime, if not Japan.

[Haruhi]

Yay! I'm not alone.

[R3minisc3nc3]

Actually, I'm a fan of the pairing... They're so cute together! XD

Furthermore...their children don't get any gentical problems unless there are multiple occurences of incest in the family. Also, Japan doesn't have any laws on incest. That's got to say something.

[GusGus]

Physically they are a lot alike, that makes them look like a boring couple, their personalities are too different, I mean, he even tried to kill her.

So the answer is no.

[Hellsartist]

I think Naruto will end up with Sakura in the end as well, but Hinata will most likely go for Kiba before Neji. I mean think about it, for one he and Naruto have a similar attitude and personality (Loud, never-give up attitude) and he returns feelings to Hinata (at least a heck of a lot more than Naruto returns them) so I think Kiba and Hinata is a far more likely couple... or maybe Shino XD, but he's the opposite of Naruto? O.o oh my brain hurts...

[GoldSteel]

incest in anime are always great and arousing! neji and hinata 2 thumbs up!

remember when hinata bump in neji? yeah i want them to make the situation romantic! instead of "wow hinata move so fast! how can she move like that!"

[Waga]

im torn between if it should be saura x naruto or Hinata x naruto. I think Sakura wins (just about).

[GoldSteel]

im torn between if it should be saura x naruto or Hinata x naruto. I think Sakura wins (just about).

generally it always gonna be the one that loves you.

jus like in love triagle movies...... most the time always gonna be the one that loves you.

naruto accept hinata........ sasuke accept sakura...... thats what i think.

[Waga]

I think naruto still loves sakura and I think Sakura may be developing feelings for him..judging from how both anime and manga are going.

[Gaara88]

I do not read the anime, however.. this pairing cannot happen for even simpler reasons than being related.

There completly different people, Neji has discust and hates hinata.. (Well hates a strong word, but pairing he would never do).

Why do people want these 2 together? .. anyone could draw pairings between any character and make it look cute.
