I really love this arc… It might just be in my top 5. I just love that we get so much focus on the side characters (who I personally believe are far more interesting then the main characters). The fights and character development are just…<3

Once again my boy Neji is in the spotlight—what more can I ask for?!

This is actually one of my favortie arcs in the series, simply because Naruto takes a backseat in it. I like Naruto but, as with most fictional works, I tend to gravitate toward the side characters. This is where several of the lesser developed characters shine. Neji's fight is great and it even manages to tie in his relationship with Naruto. I'd have to say Chouji's story was my favorite though. It would have been easy for Kishimoto to just make Chouji "That Fat Kid" who is useless and the brunt of all jokes. But here we really got to see that his size is something that is important to his life as a ninja. Chouji wouldn't be nearly as strong without his fat, and I think there's a nice message of body acceptance to be found there. I also love his relationship with Shikamaru. (Of course, I love anything involving Shikamaru.) Their friendship doesn't get much exploration, but it feels so real that it doesn't really matter.
