Neji - I love Neji and in the end he was right and Naruto was wrong everything really was pre determined by fate and destiny.

Rock Lee - I love underdogs and I still wish he was the main character or would have his own serious series but the comedy series is good too.

Gai - The most motivational story in the series imo. He used Hardwork instead of a Jinchuriki or Bloodline.
