it would have been hideously boring to see them keep up with one singular perspective, as viewers of naruto we are taught what a ninja is.. atleast in shonen's perspective
did anyone really expect it to be the same? obviously the protagonist and all the plots where going to exponentially exagerrate anything and thats what we have now and it is still entertaining!

i mean its not as SURPRISING as naruto beating neji during the chunin exams (that was sarcasm) but we finally see akatsuki for what it is and other plot twisting goodies
