I'll never understand why the adults kept the Kyuubi attack secret to their kids. That is not exactly something you can keep secret for long and pretend it never happened. I can slightly understand not saying who were Naruto's parents, but this seems silly when they see everyone treating Naruto like crap and want to know why.
And the anime is better when they just "fill" in Kishi's storyline and keep mostly to canon like they are doing here. It's their filler arcs that give filler a bad reputation. Because they can't resist creating their horrible filer characters, villains, and cliched plots. This mini-arc has been good because it sticks to the canon characters outside of those three mooks. Although we will likely see three filler villains soon, they won't be around for long.
