i just wanted him to learn some ninjutsu
i dont read manga so maybe he will, but i wont hold my breath...the anime is so dissappointing in this regard.
at least a scroll or something(ten ten is awesome). he could summon & fight with frogs but i dont think the action will ever lead in that direction. and ive heard the minor spoilers about that 'mode'
im glad he doesn't use a thousand clones anymore, just 4 or 5(though it disturbs me when his opponents dont 'clone-counter' when neccessary, even if they dont have as much chakra...anyway its less annoying
...and speaking of ninjutsu; asuma's 'smoke-ignite-bomb' jutsu was too awesome to be seen only once/used by one person
