Firstly 615 was a quality chapter.

I can see the whole NaruHina thing starting to develop and there's obviously signs that it may happen in the end. Remember though Kishi has a way of leading us one way and then going the other way instead.

The whole bonding between Naruto and Hinata is good but personally I think there's something that needs addressing. Someone who needs to get screen time right now and show us what he's feeling right now and also what new abilities he has.

Of course, from the title, it's Rock Lee.

Now with the power levels being off the scale right now, people may just disregard him as fodder and say they're not interested. And they're probably right. If you're not Uchiha or Senju right now then it's fairly difficult to get a look in. But consider this:

Naruto was losing his resolve and Hinata picked him up. Neji was a close friend to Naruto and definitely has some importance. But Lee's entire ambition and purpose as a ninja is motivated by the desire to surpass Neji. It's not quite a friendship level of Naruto and Sasuke or Kakashi/Obito, but it's still important enough.

I think Lee should be going absolutely mad right now. Kishi should definitely give him a few panels next chapter, and we should see him fight. One of the key pieces in his ninja way has just died, so right about now he should be so fired up. Either that or he should be crying his eyes out. Or else it doesn't really do the K11 friendships developed in Part 1 justice.

Thoughts?

I agree, Lee deserves some screen time, developing an 8th gate jutsu. evening/nightfall dragon maybe?
