What About The Others?

I really don't care too much about the others (except Rock Lee), except that it adds diversity to the series. Ever since Jiraiya and Naruto took off to look for Tsunade, the series has felt very claustrophobic. Especially after having spent almost 60 episodes with ALL these other characters around. The world got bigger and then sort of imploded on itself again. I think that's why I've becom less enthused about the show recently. They even removed the whole team thing, which makes it seem even smaller. Let's see what Neji's done with his life since the exam. Let's see what Hinata's done. Let's see how everyone else is doing and what they're doing after the attack on Konoha, even if it's all condensed into one filler episode, it'll lift the constrained feeling that the series has picked up here these last almost 10 episodes. Granted, the series is still great, and my favorite out of all the newer (currently airing new episodes in Japan) anime, but it's just not as exciting as it was for almost 2/3 of the series now that they're only focusing on so few characters.

the show can't show everybody at the same time. you will need 9 monitors to see what each is doing at the exact moment. well, probably 8 since sakura is sasuke's bitch, they just need one monitor.

just be patience, the show can't have you off the seat all the time.

In all fairness, though... there's a reason the show is called Naruto.

Although yeah, I want to see how folks are doing... at the same time, I'm more interested in what Naruto's attack is going to do, whenever it gets used. The character I want won't be back for some time anyways. But he will return, and he will devistate. I hope.

They just want to reavert the focus back to Naruto. After all, the show is about his road to being Hokage, this is the stuff that shapes him up for that road. Having his ass handed to him by the person the village picked to be their Hokage, and at the same time striving above that person's expectations. Not focusing on her thoughts of how his actions rekindle her feelings of her brother and love, because he has the ability to persevere through anything thrown his way. That's his way of the ninja. Heh. And to eat lots of ramen.
