"What are you getting so excited about, Konohamaru? Why are you muttering to yourself over there?"
The moment Naruko spoke, the girls nearby burst into squeals.

Standing before her was like facing a goddess.
By comparison, the somewhat spacey Naruko was much more approachable.
As for Hinata...
Sorry.
In the Hokage Ninja manga, no one had ever said she
