I'm not saying that fighting is all there is to character development in this kind of series but in order to have character growth you need the spotlight and for that you need fight scenes 95% of the time.
I agree as Naruto is a manga with fighting in it so the most well developed characters will have done at least some fighting.

If Naruto wasn't a fighting manga then it wouldn't look like Sakura did little in Naruto as she doesn't get enough spotlight. I was talking about this on a different forum as well.
