*The Adored Elder Sister*
**[01:42] ---**
Elder Sister Hinata!
**[01:45] ---**
I've been waiting for you!
**[01:47] ---**
Let's play ninja!
**[01:51] ---**
I'm sorry, Hanabi.
I can't right now.
**[01:55] ---**
Huh? Come on,
just for a little while!
**[01:58] ---**
That will not do, Lady Hanabi.
**[02:00] ---**
Lady Hinata must train
with Lord Hiashi.
**[02:04] ---**
I will play with you.
**[02:07] ---**
Please be on your way.
**[02:09] ---**
I'll see you later, Hanabi.
**[02:12] ---**
No, no! Elder Sister!
**[02:22] ---**
It's so boring…
**[02:24] ---**
It can't be helped.
**[02:26] ---**
Her ladyship is the successor
of the main family.
**[02:31] ---**
But just a little can't hurt…
**[02:33] ---**
We Hyuga are an illustrious clan
within the Hidden Leaf,
**[02:37] ---**
who possess Byakugan, the most touted
of all the Kekkai Genkai.
**[02:41] ---**
As the leader of the clan,
**[02:43] ---**
there is a mountain of knowledge
that Lady Hinata must learn.
**[02:47] ---**
Here you go.
**[03:06] ---**
Lady Hanabi!
**[03:08] ---**
Lady Hanabi!
**[03:12] ---**
Now where did she run off to?
**[03:23] ---**
I found Elder Sister!
**[03:42] ---**
I didn't get to play
with Elder Sister today…
**[03:53] ---**
Elder Sister Hinata!
**[03:55] ---**
Sorry I'm late.
**[03:58] ---**
No problem!
**[04:09] ---**
Huh?
**[04:43] ---**
Elder Sister came yesterday.
**[04:46] ---**
She must have been exhausted
from all that training.
**[04:49] ---**
Did you thank her properly?
**[04:53] ---**
Well… She fell asleep,
so I'll tell her next time!
**[04:56] ---**
Yes, please do that.
**[04:59] ---**
What's the big idea?!
**[05:02] ---**
What're you doing here,
you're a curse on all of us!
**[05:06] ---**
What? I was only…
**[05:09] ---**
I was only looking at the masks!
**[05:11] ---**
You want this?
**[05:13] ---**
You filthy loser?
**[05:15] ---**
You disgust me.
Just take it!
**[05:22] ---**
You can have it.
Now get lost!
**[05:29] ---**
Hey Natsu, who is that boy?
**[05:32] ---**
Well…
**[05:35] ---**
It's as the shopkeeper said.
**[05:39] ---**
What?!
**[05:41] ---**
Why do you all look at me
with those eyes?
**[05:47] ---**
You must never approach him.
**[06:00] ---**
You're going to your studies?
**[06:02] ---**
Yeah!
**[06:03] ---**
I can write my name now.
**[06:05] ---**
I even know some kanji!
**[06:07] ---**
Actually lots!
**[06:09] ---**
Really?
**[06:10] ---**
Lady Hinata, you mustn't keep
Lord Hiashi waiting.
**[06:13] ---**
Right.
**[06:15] ---**
I'll see you later, Hanabi.
**[06:16] ---**
Okay!
**[06:23] ---**
Training, huh…
**[06:37] ---**
Please focus.
**[06:39] ---**
You can't go out to play
unless you finish.
**[06:48] ---**
Done! Here!
**[06:56] ---**
My, my…
**[07:14] ---**
*So strong…yet so kind.*
**[07:16] ---**
*I want to be like her…*
**[07:28] ---**
*I want to be more like Elder Sister,*
*even just a little bit.*
**[07:41] ---**
Elder Brother Neji?
**[07:42] ---**
Her sparring partner
doesn't have to be me.
**[07:46] ---**
Please let me do my own training.
**[07:48] ---**
No, not yet. Continue.
**[07:51] ---**
Please, let's continue, Neji.
**[07:58] ---**
Understood.
**[08:08] ---**
*That guy's different today…*
**[08:11] ---**
What's wrong, Lady Hinata?
**[08:14] ---**
This isn't child's play.
**[08:25] ---**
*Hang in there, Elder Sister!*
**[08:30] ---**
*That's so…*
**[08:32] ---**
That was nothing…
**[08:35] ---**
And you expect to fulfill
your destiny…
**[08:40] ---**
As the leader of the Hyuga Clan?
**[09:02] ---**
What?
**[09:03] ---**
Ahhh… My head… My head…!
**[09:21] ---**
The fool…
**[09:24] ---**
*What's…going on?*
**[09:25] ---**
*What was that?*
**[09:43] ---**
*What was that?*
**[09:53] ---**
You were peeking into
the training hall, weren't you?
**[09:58] ---**
I see…
**[10:06] ---**
That man was fine,
then suddenly, he was in agony…
**[10:11] ---**
And the pattern on his forehead…
**[10:14] ---**
What you saw was
the Curse Mark: Caged Bird…
**[10:17] ---**
passed down within the Hyuga.
**[10:20] ---**
The Curse Mark…Caged Bird?
**[10:23] ---**
Yes. It reacts to the hidden seal
placed within the main family…
**[10:27] ---**
If it is placed on you,
**[10:29] ---**
they can easily destroy
your cranial nerves.
**[10:36] ---**
So back then…
**[10:39] ---**
When Neji threatened
Hinata with harm,
**[10:42] ---**
Hiashi used the power of
the hidden seal to stop him.
**[10:46] ---**
Why would he do such a thing?
**[10:54] ---**
The main family of the Hyuga Clan
has the solemn duty
**[10:56] ---**
of protecting the Byakugan
for eternity.
**[11:00] ---**
For that, there are times
when we must rule over
**[11:02] ---**
the side branch families
using absolute fear…
**[11:05] ---**
in other words, "death,"
to keep them in line.
**[11:09] ---**
Absolute fear…
**[11:14] ---**
Naturally, some in the side
branch families oppose this.
**[11:19] ---**
I speak of those
who harbor resentment
**[11:21] ---**
towards the main family.
**[11:24] ---**
But regardless of how much
we are hated,
**[11:25] ---**
it is all for the sake
of the Hyuga Clan…
**[11:27] ---**
that we possess this skill.
**[11:31] ---**
So that's who we are...
**[11:33] ---**
Listen well, Hanabi.
**[11:36] ---**
All of us are born into this world
bearing our own destiny.
**[11:41] ---**
In our lifetime,
that destiny never changes.
**[11:59] ---**
How unusual…
**[12:01] ---**
You're not in a rush today?
**[12:03] ---**
Yeah… Not today…
**[12:19] ---**
*I wonder if that guy is way stronger*
*than Elder Sister?*
**[12:42] ---**
That's inadequate!
**[12:44] ---**
Why did you hesitate right there?!
**[12:46] ---**
Drive in, as hard as you can!
**[12:48] ---**
Yes!
**[12:57] ---**
Thank you very much.
**[13:09] ---**
Is Hinata up to this?
**[13:15] ---**
By her very nature,
**[13:17] ---**
Hinata is not very good
at confrontation.
**[13:19] ---**
Perhaps she is too kind.
**[13:22] ---**
If that's the case,
she can't protect the Hyuga!
**[13:49] ---**
TRAINING GROUND 3
**[13:58] ---**
*What is she doing*
*in a place like this...?*
**[14:09] ---**
Clone Jutsu!
**[14:20] ---**
Clone Jutsu!
**[14:22] ---**
*Wasn't he the one…?*
**[14:27] ---**
*Why is Elder Sister watching him?*
**[14:31] ---**
*Elder Sister?*
**[15:17] ---**
I'm entering.
**[15:47] ---**
They're supposed to
be five years apart in age.
**[15:51] ---**
Lady Hanabi is quite amazing…
**[16:02] ---**
How was training today?
**[16:06] ---**
The same as usual…
**[16:08] ---**
You seem depressed.
**[16:10] ---**
You used to have
so much fun in the past…
**[16:14] ---**
Yeah…
**[16:20] ---**
I observed for a while…
**[16:22] ---**
It's going to be difficult to let Hinata
succeed the main family.
**[16:26] ---**
A decision must be made.
**[16:31] ---**
I understand.
**[16:33] ---**
However, I'd like to make
one request.
**[16:39] ---**
You two will participate
in a mock battle today.
**[16:42] ---**
Huh?
**[16:44] ---**
I want to see all the skill and power
you've gained until now.
**[16:46] ---**
Do not go easy on each other.
**[16:50] ---**
Fight with the intent
to defeat each other!
**[16:53] ---**
*Fight with the intent to defeat?*
**[16:55] ---**
*What is Lord Hiashi thinking?*
**[17:00] ---**
Hinata…
**[17:01] ---**
You are the successor
of the Hyuga Clan.
**[17:04] ---**
Show me that
you are worthy of that.
**[17:08] ---**
Yes.
**[17:12] ---**
*But I'm just supposed to fight…*
**[17:20] ---**
Begin!
**[17:30] ---**
*Elder Sister Hinata!*
**[17:37] ---**
They're both amazing!
**[17:45] ---**
*There's no end to this!*
**[17:47] ---**
*Right there!*
**[17:51] ---**
*Oh no!*
**[18:07] ---**
Stop!
**[18:33] ---**
Father…
**[18:34] ---**
To fall to Hanabi who is five years
younger than you…
**[18:37] ---**
Enough. You may go!
**[18:54] ---**
Hinata will probably serve
the village as a genin.
**[18:59] ---**
I see.
**[19:02] ---**
As sad as it seems,
**[19:04] ---**
we cannot allow a failure like
that to be our successor.
**[19:08] ---**
This is her destiny.
**[19:12] ---**
That you were born
possessing strength
**[19:15] ---**
surpassing that of your elder sister
is also destiny.
**[19:18] ---**
Hanabi, you must hone
your skills to the utmost
**[19:21] ---**
for the sake of the Hyuga.
**[19:27] ---**
Yes.
**[19:33] ---**
CLEAR MIND
**[19:49] ---**
Stand, Hanabi.
**[19:56] ---**
Hinata will be under
my command from now.
**[19:59] ---**
But are you sure about this?
**[20:04] ---**
Hinata is the successor
of the Hyuga Clan.
**[20:08] ---**
Genin missions carry
a high risk of death.
**[20:13] ---**
Do what you will with her.
**[20:17] ---**
She couldn't beat Hanabi
who is five years younger…
**[20:21] ---**
The Hyuga have no need
for such a person.
**[20:26] ---**
*Father has turned his back*
*on Elder Sister.*
**[20:31] ---**
Is that all you wanted to discuss?
If so, you may go.
**[20:35] ---**
We are busy here.
**[20:37] ---**
All right.
**[20:43] ---**
Continue, Hanabi.
**[20:46] ---**
Yes.
**[20:51] ---**
*If Elder Sister can't do it,*
*I have no choice but to do it.*
**[20:54] ---**
*I will protect the Hyuga.*
**[20:57] ---**
*This is my destiny!*
**[22:38] ---**
It seems Lady Hinata is doing
very well as a genin.
**[22:42] ---**
I hear she will be taking
the Chunin Exams.
**[22:44] ---**
The Chunin Exams?!
**[22:46] ---**
It's a test one must pass
**[22:47] ---**
in order to be promoted from
genin to chunin rank.
**[22:49] ---**
But I understand it's quite rigorous,
and there are even fatalities.
**[22:53] ---**
Next time on Naruto Shippuden:
"Hanabi's Decision"
**[22:57] ---**
There's no point in participating
in something like that.
**[22:59] ---**
