If anyone should die, it should be Hinata. She's made an effort to be a stonger person but she is still useless. Hell even she didn't believe in her own self worth. Whether or not she becomes stronger, I don't think she ought to be considered an heir to the Hyuga clan/Main family. To me, Hinata will never become truly strong. Neji on the other hand is the genius of the Hyuga clan and when it's all said and done I think he'll probably be the strongest Hyuga ever. C'mon, he managed to master the 64 hands and the kaiten on his own and still during his childhood, just imagine what he would be capable to do at 25 or 30yrs old.

though so far we haven't seen much of Hanabi, i still think that she'd own Hinata.
