Guys as cool it could have been having gender counterparts u can easily see the china version of the game and no one ia planning that...though if they made those 5 characters..this game would have been more unique and plus their counterparts would have at least 5-6 different skills than our current avatars...the idea to make the same character as female and male respectfully is amazing but I guess thats not a plan for the makers of naruto online.
