This question is purely for discussion purposes, since I've been rereading the manga and reviewing some of the important highlights in the anime.

Anyway, what exactly can be improved/changed/added to the plot to make the plot less OP/cliched/boring?

I've seen many strong jutsu being introduced in the manga War Arc, though the coolness of these techniques are brought down easily by the way they are explained. The EMS abilities for example hasn't been fully explained yet has already shown that the Susano'o can achieve a "Perfect Form" with it; even Sasuke spams Amaterasu using his new eyes (does that mean Sasuke can make his Susano'o evolve into a Perfect Form too?).

Another would be about that Yin and Yang stuff regarding Kurama, where Minato sealed half of it forever with his forbidden jutsu and left the Kyuubi into Naruto so that the latter can gain powers from the Tailed Beast. Since these massive creatures are purely made up of chakra, and they regenerate chakra over time, does that mean that Kurama has already regained his missing other half?

There's so much to clarify in Naruto that it drives me crazy for answers. @.@

A couple of important characters dying would be interesting, this whole 'war' is wrapped in cotton wool.

There needs to be more unique jutsu coming in.
I'm tired of seeing so many god damn sharingans and rasengans

You meant something like, the "war" was too mild? If so, I can agree to that. The war was abrupt, and showing off other dead characters didn't help much in the plot (though they made the fights look good).

The fact that a large majority of the characters come off as fodder and hardly do anything for the story yet Kishi still feels obligated to keep every single one alive during a war

Might as well be a pillow fight.

Well, that's too bad. It means that Naruto won't be a full-fledged Jinchuriki who can freely control Kurama like Killer B can with the Hachibi.

Unique jutsu like Kekkei Touta or other jutsu that can bring up the five basic elements can be good (OP alert), huh? Sharingan and Rasengan have become too abused for the story.

I guess having Konoha 11 in action has become quite a casual suggestion (to which I deeply agree).

Well, you can tell me wrong, but Kishimoto might want the "deaths" to be significant (like killing off one or two Kage, or maybe Killer B, idk)? Nice, "pillow fight" can be a gist of the war so far. xd

Well I mean like, we haven't seen a puppet master in a while, which pisses me off except Sasori being edo tensei'ed back. But he just left again anyway -.-.

Ahh, I see. Well I think even Kishimoto's getting tired of pushing the plot deeper that he decided to kill off the zombie shinobi except Madara xd

They have stacked Tobi and Madara with so many powers, I'm going to be pissed if both get defeated by ordinary means.

Tobi and Madara have too much power for them to be beaten by ordinary means. The aftermath of the war might be caused only by Naruto "talking" his way through Tobi, just like he did with Nagato (since Kabuto is a dead man in the sight of Sasuke) IMO.
