I think Gaara actually shows the most character growth. He went from sociopath to a very loving and kind person. I feel he changed the most from Naruto to Shipudden with everyone else staying pretty much the same personality wise.

As for worst....Anyone who wasn't Naruto or an Uchiha in some shape form or fashion got the shaft in screen time and plot relevance. I love Hinata, but really she got more screen time then most, but was essentially the same throughout the series. Sakura is also very bad since as soon as she got a powerup so she could play with the big ninja, the big ninja upped their game and left her behind. She also stayed the same personality wise and was crying out for Sasuke as much as Hinata was crying out for Naruto.
