It seems like Hinata's father apologized to him later after the fight though.... It also looked like that symbol gave the dude that was with Hyuuga mad pain or something....

The name of the symbol on his head is the Svastika and it's a really old Hindu symbol.
And Moon are almost all right, Neji's father (Hizashi ) was sacrified for the sake of the main family, Neji is a slave under the orders of the main family which can kill him at anytime with the seal in his head, Hinata's father (Hiashi) apologized in front of Neji as proof of his words : Neji had always believed that his father was killed by force whereas he agreed to replace his brother because it was the only way of being free (francky I think that it's still worst)

2. When Hinata got into coughing fit in the middle of the Hyuuga/Naruto fight, Kabuto offered to help in his missing-nin hunter outfit which was kinda freaky IMHO. Anyways, it seems like he knocked her out for no particularly good reason. Was that just to get her and Kiba before the bigger attack? Or did they do it to kidnap her or something to use against Naruto later? What happened to her and Kiba afterwards?

During all the last test, Kabuto made sleep all those that he could, they just awoke after the war.

4. When did Shikamaru and Naruto get so friendly? I mean him waiting there in the room was nice and all, but like...considering all that happened before it was a bit of a surprise. But then again it shouldn't, it's not like he's Ino or god-awful Sakura.

Bah they were classmate afterall

5.Gaara went to go pay a friendly visit to Sasuke and Kakashi. Was it just like to say hello or to spy on their progress?

Well it was just to say : hello, I will have fun while I kill you ^^

6. Does it explain why Gaara is the mother of sand and mascara? Like does he have some youkai-ness hidden within him or he is just one hella powerful human?

Gaara's father, the Kazekage sealed a living spirit of an old hidden sand priest named Shuukaku inside Gaara before his birth.

7. I forget what Orochimaru's plans are exactly? Is it to take over the world?

To steal the body of Sasuke, destroy Konoha and probably all the other hidden village ninja.

8. Is that female Orochimaru a personal female impersonator or like his sister? You never see her in the flashbacks yet she's so darn powerful.

What?
You mean the guy who kill the 3rd?
It was Orochimaru, he created a immortality spell which allow him to transfer his soul into an other body, this is why he want Sasuke, for his Sharingan.

9. The 4th Hokage looks strinkingly similar to Naruto. Now, this book is a great example of beautiful and distinct character designs. I can't just imagine that this striking similarity is it just coincidence or just a monkeywrench that the author put into the mix. Any clues on that one?

lol seriously the 4th look like Naruto but Tsunade's brother, and Kazekage too
For the moment nobody know.

10. When Gaara turned into that monster was that just sand? Also, I thought that the fight between Naruto and Gaara was very, very good. I was especially, feeling it in the end when Naruto looked like he was actually gonna get up and Gaara was all like "NOOOO!! No more! God you monster, why don't just ever stay down!!" Well he didn't say that, but I'm sure that was what was in his head.

Yeah the badger form is composed of sand or mud.

11. I feel good that Sasuke his seeing how much more powerful Naruto is becoming. For Sasuke to still think that he has a chance in a fight against this boy would just be too stupid, even for him.

Well, wait for the next chapters, don't underestimate the curse seal, but yeah just now naruto is stronger than Sasuke.

12. I know that Sasuke's brother came back, but apparently he was there to either take Naruto away or kill him, didn't see the latter there, but there was some bad news going on though. Did it get reported back somewhere that Naruto _must_ die or something? Is Sasuke's brother even working for ole' Orochimaru? Which brings me to my next question....

Itachi wants don't want to kill Naruto, he and the Akatsuki wants the Kyubi inside him
Itachi don't work for Oro, but Oro was part of the same organization in the past.

13. Why did Ero Sennin take Naruto away? Was it like for Naruto's own good 'cause mad people are out to get him or to train him even more? And if the latter why at that particular time? Like, are they perparing Naruto for something he doesn't know about yet or we don't know about yet?

Jiraiya took Naruto in training to protect him against the Akatsuki and because Naruto is the hero

14. Did Sasuke's brother give a reason to why he even slaughtered his entire clan? Was he just on some extreme power trip?

He said that it was just to test his strenght, exept that, there are only many many guess.

16. Before I forget, what was the significance of Ero Sennin bringing that chick upstairs in the hotel when he was fighting Sasuke's brother? I thought that Ero Sennin was gonna be like "Naruto, today I'm gonna turn you into a man." I don't know.

LOL
No, the woman was manipuled by Itachi to distract Jiraiya
