Yeah, I imagine Sarada would be pretty busy with her ambitions to become Hokage.. and Sasuke's probably<em>still</em>out protecting Konoha from afar. I figure he avoids the village as a form of penance, personally. Never bought his reasoning for not visiting his daughter even once in 12 years...<br/><br/>I do like the idea of Yoshi awakening his Sharingan through a moment of love and all, but I kind of would also be a little sad if that made it impossible for any NPCs to be having fun with the PCs. ;) Upon hitting the third stage, all the characters will train with their respective Jounins (or, like in Naruto's case, with a special guest star mentor! :P) and one idea I had was that Sarutobi Mirai wants to take Yoshi's apparently sex-based Sharingan to its natural full extent... :P<br/><br/>Other possibilities include the rival and friendly genin, obviously. Unfortunately, Shiori has really only interacted with two characters... while so far Yoshi's met Naomi, Setsuko, Kurai, Kasumi, Daisuke, and an unnamed Kumo Kunoichi. I thoroughly enjoy the thought of Shiori using her special ability to subdue an all-male team that have tricked themselves into thinking they're the ones taking advantage of her..<br/><br/>I think losing a single point of chakra every round might just be unnoticeable..
