I took his character into consideration, I really like neji's fighting style however I hated him until part way through the chunnin exam, I don't find chouji interesting at all and his fighting was the straw that broke the camel's back.

Hey, he ain't so big no more, remember. Maybe this time he eat less and learn more moves.
Perhaps, I still dislike his justsu(like how he made his hand huge and what not) and I doubt he will abandon his clan's specialty so quickly.

As a note, the anime follows the manga, and as I understand it manga in general is not for children (they can't read the lettering they use in it, once again as I understand it) so I wouldn't say the determining factor is whether or not this show is for children but rather the writers preference.
