Naruto had exactly two problems, both contradictory to the other:
 * 1) it lasted for far too long
 * 2) it didn't last long enough to bother explain shit and the ending was obviously rushed

Unresolved character plotlines (right Orochimaru?...) not to mention the missed potential of MANY characters, like Konohamaru etc. Anko was reduced into a plotdevice to revive Orochimaru, even though she wants to take him down, not sure if irony of fate or just Kishi being sexist. There was so much that could have been done with the two of them... touch upon their relationship (was it romantic or just student-teacher?), why did she go with him and then change her mind? (non-canon anime filler doesn't count) and so on. But noooo.... it's not like her character was offended enough, lets make her fat as well.
