What like the cloud team? They were created to fill character spots in the final Shinobi War because the rest of the main cast were already spread out, of course they weren't going to get development. Killer Bee is introduced somewhat late but he still gets appropriate development.

that's 3 people for 1 arc

there are dozens of characters that get introduced and forgotten about

you don't have have to go that far out of the konoha 11

There's one particular filler though you have to watch because they shoehorned part of the legitimate plot into it.

can't skip shippuden, it's part of the series

i'll just be skipping the filler

You're still not at the part LC just described then because it's a major plot point for an important fight in the upcoming episodes.

60, like the thread says.

orochimaru disguises himself as some chick in the forest like 20 episodes back. that's who i was confusing him with.

my bad i thought he was at that point because of some other shit he said

i forgot about the whole rain ninja disguise

it's k, i think i already knew that plot point for some reason

i know a few things about the series from exposure to it over the years but nothing really concrete

off the top of my head
shino
kiba
tenten
lee and neji also go for long periods of time without being relevant to anything, iirc neji only comes back at the end to generate some cheap feels
the extent of kurenais development is that she gets preggers
gai is a meme
asuma only gets development right before he dies as a cheap way to generate feels

72 volumes takes up A LOT of space. And looking on Amazon right now, getting all three box sets new would round up to about $350. Worth it considering how much I like the story, and less expensive/a hassle than buying the DVDs/BDs for the anime since those con you on price for content.

that was fucking dumb of you, because now you need to spend like 500 bucks to get them all again

or just got to your local library

How often do you see these characters in comparison to others? Shino might not get a whole heck of a lot of development but he doesn't appear a whole heck of a lot either. He's not forgotten about because you can clearly see him from time to time in Part 2, but he wont get much in the way of development because there's not much he can contribute to. I'm not saying Kishi is perfect with his character fluff, but he's significantly better than another Big Three manga creator who introduces four new characters in one page with names and personalities only to completely kill them off a few pages later, or completely forgets the name of a supposedly powerful character because he went so long without adding him in the story.

you said everyone gets development in part 2

i'm posting people who don't

also the big 3 are all shit so him being slightly less shitty than another author doesn't make his bad story telling ok

They got enough development for their role in the show.

Also not giving everyone huge levels of character building =/= bad storytelling.

they don't have to have huge levels of character development. they just need to have something and at least remain relevant in some manner instead of being introduced and then forgotten about save for the odd panel where the author remembers that that character exists too.

i might just watch along with you if you make it to episode 64, but i still have other animes to watch

sigh

would you be willing to follow the guide i found to skip the filler?

https://www.quora.com/Which-are-the-manga-related-episodes-in-Naruto-Shippuden-anime

i'm on episode 58 now

Do filler lists include episodes in the middle of fights in which they stand around and explain their strategy for 20 minutes? Serious question.

no. they generally only exclude anime-only material. some episodes are mostly anime only with some manga content and some lists will reflect that by saying theyre partially canon or something similar.

gaara is a lot more edgy than sasuke so far

the edgiest thing sasuke has said so far is "theres someone... someone i have to kill" when asked by kakashi

gaara has literally said that killing people gives him a reason to live
