The death should be impactful. If the death is less impactful, then it doesn't make sense. So Tenten makes no sense.

Gaara would have been a good one. He had more involvement in the story in Part 2 than Neji and his past with Naruto would have made the death hit much harder.

@Shark Sage, I like the idea but it'd be anticlimactic for either of them to die before having their final fight.
