I don't mind Lee getting his ass kicked by Gaara, because it did reveal how badass Lee was (even Neji was sort of awed, although he'd never admit it), and Gaara IS sort of absurdly powerful. That, and it led to this scene, which is without a doubt the single best thing Kishimoto has put to paper, and works perfectly with the themes. Now, when Gaara showed up in the Sasuke In A Bucket arc, i was proper pissed for that exact reason.

Shikamaru I don't mind, because although he enjoys a natural genius IQ, and is sorta lazy in the general sense, in combat he does have to work harder for his victories than anyone else, because his combat skills are frankly third-rate. He NEEDS a strategy, and that's harder to work than any amount of direct fighting.

I agree otherwise, though. Kishimoto just...sort of fails in the general sense.

Not to mention the only reason Lee had survived that fight with Kimimaro so long was because he was a "Natural Genius" of the Drunken Fist style.

WAY TO SHIT ON YOUR OWN STORY, KISHIMOTO.

... XD Well maybe I only think that way because I dislike Shikamaru. A lot. *is biased klsfkjl*

:( Yeah it's so sad that he's so epic lame. I mean, it was sorta endearing in the beginning, but seeing as he has done the exact opposite of improving over time (after, you know, gaining some experience), it's just getting pathetic.

OK, but the Drunken Boxing was so awesome that I can forgive any amount of theme-breaking for it. And really, 'hard work >>>> natural talent' as a theme doesn't mean every single victory has to come from hard work. It's more of an overall statement. Plus, all the Drunken Boxing skill in the world wouldn't have helped Lee if it wasn't for his ludicrously strong and well-trained body.

I know, I'm just hatin' for the sake of hatin', now. :P



No but the point was, there's not a single victory that seems to come from hard work rather than natural talent. Okay maybe like... one or two, I just can't think of them off the top of my head.
