I always wondered about Team 8. They were from three different clans, and each one had unique abilities. And then they are assigned to a kunoichi that specializes in the field that has nothing to do with those clans. So it makes me wonder - what exactly their training looked like? Asuma had similar problem, but at least he could teach them some Taijutsu, so Chouji would be stronger while Shika and Ino less shitty in close combat.

Thekillman wrote: Kishimoto knew he sucked at romance, which is why he did so little with it. It's also probably why Hinata as a love interest wasn't explored further, since Kishimoto probably thought he'd screw it up.

And in the end he went with Damsel in Distress cliche. Also, somehow Hinata managed to fall in love at age 7 and her love was strong enough to survive 11-12 years xD Though he said during interview that NaruHina was meant to be, it was decided at the early stage of manga that they will end up together and all NaruSaku moment were just to mess with readers.

I would introduce more villains that are "villains" only because their goals are opposite to main character goal. Way too much "I was not evil, I become evil because my childhood sucked!"

Zabuza and Haku were good villains, too bad they were exception.
