Where did everyone go in Naruto?!

[KaedaUchiha]

Ok, i know this isn't just me, but i have noticed we have abandoned some of out most charished characters (or we just havn't seen them in a while).

Lets use Neji, TenTen, Lee, and Gai.
In the Anime, last time we saw them was in the Saving Gaara from Akatsuki Saga. In the Manga: We saw them once more during the Pein battle as they returned from a mission, and when Neji, TenTen, and Lee were all standing with the others, as Ino cried. We rarly hear about them now!!! Except for Lee who went with Sakura to see Naruto.

Gaara's group. After rescuing from Akatsuki, the last time we see them is in the Kage summit. Then after they left, we havn't seen them. (Why arn't they in it more often? Their awesome XD)

Kurenai!! First, we rarley saw her at all before Asuma's death. Then after wards, we see her once or twice, talking with Shikamaru. Also, it seems she has been pregnant for a long time XD When is she finally going to give birth? XD

Hinata's group. Only in the Manga, they barley show up. (in the Anime, the show up in almost every filler) We see them when they see Naruto again, then we see them during the pain battle. (i may be missing something).

Chouji!! We see Shikamaru and Ino alot more than him. We see him when he meets Sai and when he is eating with them, and the last time we see him is when he is in the Pain fight.

There is probably alot more, if you can notice the more un obvious ones, because i am a point out the obvious type person XD

There's a crap load of characters in Naruto...and Kishimoto can't afford to focus on every one of them at once or it would be an overload of information...just take it easy and wait...he has his uses for all the characters he creates in Naruto.

yeah.... Its just the one character i totally wanna see right now is Kurenai (she has to give birth some time XD)

Lol you forgot about Anko. We saw her for one random chapter looking for Kabuto when her last appearance was something like the Sound/sand invasion in part one(correct me if I'm wrong).

That's why I enjoy OP to Naruto. Oda does a better job of managing the entire side characters ensemble and finds better ways to utilize them in the plot.

he is just focusing on the main characters 4 the while. the anime will make up with fillers whoever he left out but i dont mind
