#ultimate jutsu

You know I really like Shino. If you don't know what I'm talking about, I refer to Shino Aburame from Naruto. His concept was cool and he himself was so different from most of the cast that I found him interesting. Of course this means nothing since like literally everyone else that isn't Team 7 or Team 10 he basically got pushed to the side and forgotten except for whenever his abilities were relevant to the plot.

Now while there is much I'd like to talk about him, in this particular post I only wish to speak of a very specific thing that I noticed after revisiting the old PS2 Naruto games. That is the fact that him (along many many others) never had an ability progression, in the manga and anime his abilities got stronger but remained essentialy the same from what little we saw of them. But in those games, even discounting the Ultimate Jutsu, just in the combos and regular jutsu they gave him such a great variation and expansion on his abilities that it actually baffles me that none of that couldn't be implemented in a more reasonable way in the canon of the manga.

Now speaking of his Ultimates while one of them is clearly TOO exageratted to be used the other one, wherein he creates an illusion made from bugs would not only seem plausible if done in a smaller scale but it would fit the fact that his teacher was A GODDAMN GENJUTSU EXPERT!...sorry lost my cool for a second there.
