Shippuden is focused only on Naruto and Sasuke. Rest all are ignored almost.![]()
Well at least Chouji became a badass with his butterfly mode XD
Who said Neji's a fodder???
It's too bad he wasn't given more fight scenes like the one against Kankuro.
I guess he creeped everybody out so Kishi just stopped drawing him...
He still is. I especially love his new Insect Sphere.He was so badass pre shippuden, now he's just another fodder, same with neji, shikamaru is the only non fodder from the age of old.
It's a shame anime filler doesn't count towards canon, thoughYeah thought he was cool 2, he's mysterious, always cold and calm and intelligent....too bad kishi ploted us and didn't develop any of pre-shipuden characters, and the only way we could see them do anything was through anime fillers.
your last statement is somewhat true. a lot of naruto fans don't like the bug aspect of him, so that drops his popularity.
on topic: i agree...shino is very badass. never lost a fight. could solo hidan. could very well almost solo sasoriyeah i said it. he might need chiyo's help, but it'd be a lot cleaner than sakura with chiyo. strongest konoha 11 behind naruto. the guy is truly badass
Darn Kishimoto writing Shino in a way that made me think he'd have some significance (as much as a side can have) in part one and leaving us in the dust.I think shino has a lot of hidden potential. Too bad kishi isnt interested in any side characters anymore :/. I want shino, rock lee, neji, and shikamaru to have their own fights in the war arc but its not gonna happen.

I read once that in Japan all insects, save for cockroaches were well liked. Especially for collecting. :shrug:
I'd love for him to solo Sasori (or almost anyone really) but I highly doubt it. As for the last statement, I reckon he'd give Neji (said to be the strongest of the K11 after Naruto) a run for his money even if I'm not 100% sure he'll win. :y

I wouldn't say 9 times out of 10, but I do think Shino has a very good chance to win a good number "out of ten" against Neji. Same here, same here.lol it'd be tough but he'd win against neji 9x out of 10. very logically in fact. and yeah ikr, i'd love to see him solo someone, shit. hopefully they get development soon...even just a little...shino has so much potential to be like another version of gaara, except with bugs. but bugs are kinda annoying to draw...damn kishi. not even a summon either. kishi really missed out on a great and versatile character here U_U
