I felt the story squandered all the potential it has and am glad creator can either retire or move onto another work (though, I doubt it'll match Naruto in popularity, no matter what it's quality is)
I loved the story, felt it has been dragged out to death a little bit (Particularly with the anime filler episodes) with a few too many over powered bad guys. But now we are getting to what we all wanted to see. Naruto Vs Sasuke. HOW IS IT GOING TO END!
I think it'll be good for it to end. Much as I love it, you can only go so far. Don't want it to end up getting super repetitive and never ending like poor Bleach did.
i've kept up with it this entire time, and it's a very appropriate ending time, and honestly since the war it's been pretty good, so i'm actually excited :3
agreeing with most everyone here - it ran on for a loooooooooooooooong time, although I'm curious on how it's going to be ended in only five chapters - the most recent volume I read looked like it still would have a couple volumes' worth before it would all come to a natural conclusion...
I am glad, though - things kept escalating for while, it's better off if it stops here before it gets even more ridiculous. @_@
First, Naruto could've been sooo much better if Kishimoto had given more attention to the other important characters, and not wasted so much time on an over-extended war that took FOREEEEVER to finish...
Secondary, Naruto was still a pretty awesome manga, and despite all it's flaws, it was still a big part of my youth and current life. So, I'll be sad to see it go...
And Thirdly, WTF?! You mean to tell me that he's only giving 5 chapters to the Naruto / Sasuke fight? Really? After that huge war, we were all expecting to see the most epic battle in the manga ever being the rematch between Naruto and Sasuke!! It's...it's gonna be Talk no Jutsu, isn't it? Damn you Kishi!! *shakes fist angrily in the air*
There always has to have a ending, I am excited and a bit sad but I can't wait to read the conclusion<3
and it will be interesting to see what he makes next
I was fully expecting Guy to dynamic entry the moon and blow it up, just him screaming until he eventually reaches it. Was severely disappointed when it didn't happen.
Who knows, maybe the final few chapters will be longer than usual. I know some manga do that when they end.
Too little too late. That whole shippuden part stunk as far as I'm concerned. I'm glad it ends with a Sasuke VS Naruto cos that's actual thing I cared about back when the manga was good and not focused on this overblown war against akatsuki/Obito/the mother of all chakra that I never gave a crap about.
True. But it's even worse because of what came prior.
First you had Pain going "ah-HA ! I'm the evil one !" but then Obito went "it was actually me all along !" but then Madara showed up and said "na-ha, it was me all along !" and then finally the mother of all chakra showed up and she was like "What do you know, it was in fact me all along !"
About time. I feel like it's been drawn out for far too long. Good authors now how and when to properly end their stories. naruto has been ongoing for, what, about 10 years? shit's crazy.
I love Naruto, but the last few arcs have dragged on sooooo much, and pointlessly so. @~@
A small part of me is sad to see it go, but a huge part of me is screaming "FINALLY! A RELEASE FROM MY TORMENT!"
It's okay though, I still have the Hunter x Hunter manga to torture myself with. Especially since the Anime's ended. :< And the manga is kinda bleh by comparison. XD Com...parison... Parison... Pariston!? AAHH!!
From what I've experienced with manga that I've been following ending(07-Ghost), I just get that "What now?" feeling afterward. My favorite series, Pandora Hearts, is coming to a close as well and I both like and dislike that.
And then the anime will get about 200+ more episodes because they'll put hundreds of fillers right between the manga's current part and the final fight.
I'm glad it's wrapping up, long runners tend to be a pain the longer they go and it probably would've been good to end it a few chapters back. I prefer my anime and mangas to be long but not too long, with Naruto qualifying as 'too long'.
FIIIIIIIIIIIINALLYYYYYYYYY
FIIIIIIIIIIIINALLYYYYYYYYY
Though I do wonder how they're going to wrap up such a climactic fight that's had years of buildup and warp things up in just five chapters
(I need to go to sleep)
Kubo stop playing with my emotions! ;A;
Either that or chapter 666 but fuck that, I can't wait so long. :V
still this is somewhat unexpected but just the feeling of "finally..."
Next comes Bleach xD
I already know what's gonna happen but I hope it doesnt

It got ridiculous and it was even clear that the guy was just trying to stretch time. x3
