I'm glad he did not. Powerups are cool... not when they happen all the time. THE MAIN REASON is not because it's impractical or unfair to other characters. NO! It's unfair to Naruto that he would need like 3-5 power ups just to beat one person. His character growth should be more then just a boost in power. His fighting experience, compassion to save him comrades should be more then enough at this point. He is the hero!

Give Naruto some respect Kishimoto. Tactics, persistents, some hard work and luck is what is needed for Naruto to win here. Powerups make it seem like all the hard work was for nothing.

To me there is a differnce between working hard to get stronger, sage mode training, all the fights that have lead up to moment, making friends with Karama! Victory feels fake if you win by just flicking on some instant powerup switch!
