Neji and Chouji are still both REALLY messed up. It could take them a long time to recover still. Neji was more or less dead until the whole hair thing, and Chouji will be ok, but is still going to need a lot of time to recover. Maybe not so long under Tsunade and Shizune's care, look at Lee (where is he anyway?).

It's pretty safe to say that if Tsunade and Shizune weren't here before this started, many more of the genins would be thoroughly dead.

Even if it's a bit early to predict the next chapter, it's gonna be Sakura crying about how Naruto couldn't bring back her precious "SASUKE-KUN!!!" I expect that little line about 2 times a panel in 236. Maybe she'll decide to not become useless, so maybe she could have gone with the group...

(Still hoping Sakura doesn't become a useless character only good for crying/making Naruto angry at Sasuke for making Sakura cry. Hope is draining pretty fast....)
