Personality
Hinata is almost neurotically shy, and this pretty much defines her. She is almost always silent because she is afraid to insult people or get something wrong. Because of this fear, she barely ever gives her opinion on anything when she works with her team. Nevertheless Hinata is a reliable person, willing to help her team whenever she's asked to and doing her best to do it. Hinata is also very helpful to others as we see when Uzumaki Naruto finally beats Kiba, when she gives both of them a medicinal cream to help them heal. Unfortunately Hinata's lack of confidence in herself has made her fail every mission she has been given. This aspect of Hinata chances a lot after a battle with Neji Hyuga, for she starts to believe in herself after Naruto stands up for her as a friend. Taking Naruto on as a rolemodel, she has regained confidence in herself and is now a potent fighter and teammate. But instead of merely admiring Naruto, her feelings intensify to a psycotic she starts to stalk him, following him around, stuttering in his presence, fainting if he so much as glances her way, and generally making him think of her as rather strange.

Hinata has a tragic past, being born in the head family branch of the Hyuga clan she was destined for something she could never be, a cold and powerful elite. From the beginning Hinata showed weakness, psychologically and in physical strength for she was too shy and introverted, and therefore, by Hyuga's standards, too weak. So for that she was abandoned by the clan to Kurenai's training, as even her own father said she was a waste of time. In her younger years Hinata was almost kidnapped by a ninja from the Cloud Country (with which the Fire Country had just signed a peace treaty) who was hoping that she would reveal the secrets of the Hyuuga clan. Her father, Hiashi Hyuuga, killed the would-be kidnapper. As no proof that the Cloud Country was involved in this incident could be offered, the Cloud Country demanded Hinata's father be killed and his body handed over to them or else they would start another conflict (even though it was just to get a body from the Hyuga clan to obtain their secrets). But not wanting his brother to be killed, and to protect the clans secrets (when a member of the branch family dies, their abilities are sealed, and therefore impossible to steal), Neji's Father and Hiashi's twin brother, Hyuga Hizashi, decided that he would make the sacrifice to protect his son, his brother, the clan and the village. Because of this, his son Neji (Hinata's cousin) holds a deep grudge against Hinata, not only as the ultimate reason for the sacrifice, but also as a representation of the hated main branch.



Jutsus
Hinata's fighting style is the same as Neji when it comes to taijutsu: Jyuuken. This style attempts to damage the internal organs rather than to break bones and do some external damage, like Rock Lee's fighting style. Part II Hinata can even keep up with her stronger cousin Neji at Jyuuken. Hinata also inherited the Byakugan.
