Okay kittens I've gotten some questions and complaints about Uzu's passive personality that I want to address.
First of all, I know that she seems sort of weak and timid, but anyone really good at reading between the lines would have seen and noticed in chapter 15, that Uzu isn't as passive or defenseless as she seems.
She had a plan for dealing with Kabuto, and she had another plan for hiding herself in plain sight.
You all have to remember that she had been in witness protection for over ten years. Uzu was taught how to hide herself and fight, she just picks her fights carefully. She has more or less trained herself to stay as calm and collected as any human under a great deal of stress can be.
She managed to appear calm and to hide herself from someone who was going to kill her, and fell apart once he was gone. If she could have, she would have walked right up to Kabuto and killed him without a second thought.
Her passiveness is a learned condition that helps her blend in and seem weaker than she is. If she had really felt threatened by Kakashi or anyone else in any of the earlier chapters, she would have dropped them. Easily.
But as it is, she hasn't been pushed enough.
I hope that answers some of your questions. Now on to another.
Skie89- I think I did pretty well on the last two chapters. And Kakashi isn't in love with Uzu. Not yet. He knows that he's behaving stranger than usual and he knows that she's the reason for it, but he doesn't understand whats going on.
He wants to fall in love.
I mean could you imagine being seventeen and feeling like an alien just going through the motions of being human? He wants to be normal, and knows that how he has dealt with certain things up to this point in an unhealthy self destructive manner. But he's hoping that by keeping Uzu close to him she could somehow help him.
She has quite litterally become his life line.
As for Sakura, she threatened him out of jealousy and couldn't see or think beyond her own wants and needs. Any more silly questions?
