@Kirin You have a point with the characters, although regarding Tenten she could've had a moment to shine with those tools she found during the Fourth Shinobi World War. As for Sasuke, that's your opinion. Thanks for commenting on my one-line plot thing! I just wish everyone else can agree with that and stop saying "It's all about Naruto trying to redeem his friend!" as if that had greater importance than being Hokage and bringing peace to the world (if anything, it was more urgent). For the Gedo Statue thing - Shadow Clones? An internship at Kamino's facilities? I dunno, the guy's a total boss anyways, so who really knows or cares? While the "next generation" thing did have plenty of good moments, sometimes I wished that in the end it would all come down to the beyond-quintessential conclusion that the current generation's beacon (Naruto) had right from the start in such a way that he doesn't fall into the pits left by his ancestors. There were some things lacking in it, to be honest, and while that does make it more realistic, this is NARUTO we're talking about - the guy who gets everything right through sheer hard work and utmost determination! Oh well. As for the children, I must say this - I was far more enthusiastic to see Naruto and co.'s own teams, not a Gohan rip-off, especially since the latter's the generation after the former. And thanks so much for those last two sentences - I had no idea everyone would like my personal ramblings so much!
