Bit of an idea that popped into my head recently.
Not sure if I'll use, but thought I'd post it here.
Basically, instead of blindly following their parents, what if some of the kids decided that Naruto was 'cool.' So, instead of being basically friendless, Naruto has girls around him. This has the added bonus of the fact that, when the parents keep trying to keep them away, they'll just rebel and try and get closer to Naruto.
Seeing Naruto being persued by girls might just make Hinata grow a bit of backbone and try and get closer to him.
As I hate OC being central to a fanfic, the story would focus only on the girls in the rookie nine, possibly Tenten as well, but not sure. One person I mentioned this to, stated that the 'girlfriends' should be kept few in number, to keep things from being too complicated, so Sakura and Hinata are definites, while Ino is a strong possibility.
With Sakura, Hinata, and Ino backing him up, I think Naruto would probably do better, though he still might not be able to do the regular Bunshin. Really depends on why you believe Naruto couldn't do it in the first place.
What do you think?
