We only really follow the lives of the Konoha 11 and the teachers and Sasuke. What about team 1,2,3,4,5,6 etc? What about the other Konoha Chunnin/Jounin? Tell me about them, where are they? What are their powers? They need to have some pretty significant jutsu to pass the Chunnin exams even, so they can't just be completely boring.

Not important. But Kishi should have shown them in the Chuunin Filler Arc or the War Arc to support the development of the Konoha 11.

So did they all fail the test and just became nameless fodder?

Most of the other teams don't even exist in canon so it doesn't really matter. Even in the next generation we know of like three team's.

What do you mean they don't exist? If there's a team 7 there must be a team 1-6 as well. Do we ever see them in the background? Are they ever mentioned?

Who said they passed the Chunin exams? Only the K11 (and Sasuke), Kabuto's team, the Sound team, and the Sand siblings were left in the Chuunin exams after the forest of death. For all we know, the others all died there, or wimped out in the test. Or just didn't enter at all. It was supposedly a big deal that all 9 rookies survived, and it wouldn't be if all 9/30 rookies survived.

If I remember correctly, in Naruto's class, only 3 teams passed their sensei's test.
Something about the Chunin exams always bothered me. Why is it so hard? In the Chunin exam arc, a maximum of 9 people could become Chunin (you have to get to the third part).

That's why I said they don't exist.

They are never mentioned, or seen.

I agree with this. It's not that they don't exist...it's that...they don't exist XD

out of all the teams the ones we followed are the only ones to get passed the written exams, the forest of death, and the chunin exam in general. So the other teams are probably either disbanded (especially if they didn't pass the written exam. The proctor told them that they couldn't take the chunin exam ever again if they forfeited) or off training for the next chunin exam. So they were really unimportant to the progression of the story.

Kishimoto forgot about them... Most were probably those Sasuke fan girls in the background in the beginning of the show
