>character bloat
>talking about one of the characters who had a clear purpose (neutral party for 5KS) and executed it very well with very little screentime
Mifune had at most 2 chapters of screentime in his entire existence. This isn't bloat, this is incredibly lean and concise. Briefly showing the heads of other power institutions that are relevant to the plot is perfectly appropriate.
Naruto is kind of bad overall, trash even. 5 or 6/10 if you're being nice. But it didn't lose points because it had a few tertiary characters expand the world. You're conflating Kishimoto's general lack of commitment with perfectly valid writing choices. Naruto would still be 5/10 regardless of K11 getting designated jobbers in part 2 because the issues are running far deeper and your criticism is shit.
