1) Sakura - mid difficulty. Sakura had improved massively from Part 1, whereas Ino tends to only work well with Shikamaru and Choji. The Mind Transfer Jutsu might cause some trouble, but as we saw in Part 1, it can be beaten. Sakura wins via blunt force trauma.

2) Temari - mid difficulty. Similar story, albeit with ranged combat. Tenten has very little that can touch Temari, whereas Temari's wind style will deflect tools and cause damage at the same time.

3) Naruto - high difficulty. In my opinion, Naruto got really lucky during this Part 1 fight. Kiba's teamwork with Akamaru may have improved, but I see Naruto's stamina and slight improvement on tactics winning the day for him, along with his improved arsenal - Rasengan and Rasenshuriken.

4) Neji - low difficulty. Hinata has definitely improved, but the only thing she has that Neji doesn't is her Twin Lion Fists. Over than that, Neji still outclasses her.

5) I'm gonna go with Lee for this one - high difficulty. He's proven he can get past Gaara's ultimate defense and can cause damage, but he couldn't keep it up. Now in Part 2, his skill with the 8 gates has greatly increased, so he 'should' be able to win. Gaara definitely won't make it easy though.

6) I'd say Neji - mid to high difficulty. He definitely won't underestimate Naruto a second time, but he might have a bit of trouble dealing with Naruto's new attacks and slightly better tactics.

7) Sasuke - mid difficulty. As shown in Part 1, he can get through Gaara's sand with Chidori. In Part 2, he's faster, more tactical and has greatly improved his Chidori, as well as developed some variants. He also has both curse mark stages which will increase his power. This match is just a matter of time in my opinion.

8) Shino - mid to high difficulty. This will play out similar to their fight in the forest in my opinion. Shino's beetles will get Kankuro eventually, so Shino's only worry will be avoiding attacks.

9) Temari - low to mid difficulty. Temari would definitely not underestimate Shikamaru a second time. She won't give him the time or space to think.
