It was shown since chapter 1 of the manga that for Naruto, love was something that had to be won or earned. This was in the scene when he told Iruka that he\'d become Hokage one day because he knew that Hokages are the strongest ninja and that way, everyone would acknowledge him.

It was shown since chapter 1 of the manga that for Naruto, love was something that had to be won or earned. This was in the scene when he told Iruka that he\\\'d become Hokage one day because he knew that Hokages are the strongest ninja and that way, everyone would acknowledge him. This fits very well with the concept of Naruto\\\'s \\\"love\\\" for Sakura being born of his rivalry with Sasuke: Sakura, a pretty girl Naruto has a crush on, is constantly fawning over Sasuke, a guy he perceives as a rival and an obstacle to overcome. So, in Naruto\\\'s mind, the only way he would attain love was if he became strong, defeated Sasuke, and (with that) won over Sakura\\\'s affections.

Now, about Hinata: Naruto was indeed ObliviousToLove with her. The trope is about a character who, for various reasons, including outright denial, is unaware of another character\\\'s romantic feelings towards them. Naruto fits this since, for him, Hinata was a girl who constantly blushed and became embarrassed whenever he was around her, and thus thought she was \\\"weird\\\". Despite this, Naruto is always shown acting warmly and positively towards her throughout the canon.

As explained above, Naruto didn\\\'t fully understand love; the idea that someone would love him [[WartsAndAll for who he was]] did not fit his mindset. As shown in \\\'\\\'The Last\\\'\\\', after Hinata\\\'s confession, Naruto went into denial of Hinata loving him, which is why Sakura said that, for Naruto, love was like the love for ramen: For him, that was the closest concept to unconditional love. This is why Naruto goes into a LoveEpiphany in the movie after he\\\'s shown all the scenes where Hinata stood with him, including the Pain scenes. It\\\'s him realizing that he\\\'s always been worthy of love and that he loved Hinata all along, which is why he reacted so violently when Pain seemingly killed her.

It\\\'s okay to criticize the execution of the romance in the series, but to say that it opens plot holes is simply not true.
