Exactly, like I already said. The director that does all the best Naruto fights has a habit of adding parts to those fights that make them more awesome. Sometimes he even adds abilities(for example, Shikamaru's use of the water scroll on Kakuzu).Originally Posted by The Archangel
They could give Naruto some new low level abilities. Like a wind slice like Sora's, and that gives that director something else to work with when he's adding those little filler moments to the fight scenes.
I agree with this. Sasuke didn't even get serious in his fight with Squad 7. He might have learned a bunch of stuff he didn't bother to use on them because he wasn't pushed.Originally Posted by Kraco
I think that the point is that after a 3 year skip, we wanted Naruto to have learned some actually NEW abilities. Instead of minor improvements to a couple of his old ones.Originally Posted by Azonalanthious
