well since jounin comes after chunin its safe to assume you do need leadership qualities to be a jounin. besides all the genin team mentors are jounin, that is a huge responsibilty.

Personally I doubt anything gets resolved in 200 and we&#39;ll just see kimmi-whatshis face get there by the end of 200 and they fail and go back. no mention of promos or whatnot they just time jump a few years later and everyone&#39;s automatically a chunin:/
Except sakura who probably goes into deep depression at the loss of her sasuke-kun, hates naruto for failing to keep his promise, and becomes a missing-nin bag lady pushing a shopping cart all around the five countries in search for saskuke.
