Satisfied with the Ending?

The last chapter obviously had some wish fulfillment, pretty much making all the popular pairing canon. The time skip was guaranteed, but I liked how everyone was older. (Except Anko got fat...) To be honest, I couldn't ask for more since I didn't want the series to drag out any longer. Overall, I felt satisfied. Could it have been better? Perhaps, but I don't have any ideas as to how.

well there were more than few unanswered questions but overall it was satisfying. The biggest downer was the huge time skip... i so wanted to see some naruhina dating and more...

I am satisfied despite the loose ends.
It was a good reading nevertheless.

I voted yes because overall I was satisfied, however, for all the wrong reasons. Couples being one, seeing everyone older second and seeing everyone's families and lives third. Still, I have to say that it felt rushed and too focusing on relationships. SasuSaku should have been completely left out (even though I ship it) because I see no way how it could have happened after everything. It's a very unhealthy relationship. Some other relationships also felt forced especially compared to how many of the previous generation stayed single. Unless you see Kakashi/Gai canon. In that case ignore my previous statement.

The plot itself was concluded in a very bad way which didn't touch upon the ideas of hate cycle, new society or even aftermath of the war. It led us to believe that everyone has just returned to their homes and went on with their lives as if nothing happened. Which is just dumb.

In other words, for a manga that was constantly talking about how a change is necessary, spending the last chapter on shipping with literally no change seen anywhere is lazy writing.

I'm quite satisfied with the ending. Disregarding the time skip, there's not much to complain about, except I wanted to see what became of Orochimaru. This guy is my 2nd favorite villain from this franchise (used to be 1st before Pain arrived).
Hopefully, he's still alive using some of his his crazy snake jutsus.

Looking forward to the spin-off series next year.

Hmh, in general I am satisfied, but agree, last chapter was reaaally forced, showing everyone's happy life and the couples, where some of them were really forced. I'd rather see a smaller time-skip, few years into the future, something like the timeline of the new movie. And focusing more on NaruHina, but oh well.

If there is a thing I'm ABSOLUTELY upset about, it's the SasuSaku pairing.... Like the worst nightmare coming true.

I did not like the art... it is like some other manga...
I did not like how he drew older naruto, gaara, also hinata and many more, sakura looks the same and only good looking is sasuke, Kishi even destoyed my fav ino face... Not only their faces and haircuts but body too (hinata), kankuro looks like bald jedi... It just doesn't look like Kishi drew this...
about story... its also lame, all the kids... and sasuke and sakura kid looks like little karin :O
Maybe sasuke cheated with karin and used genjutsu on sakura to make her think its her kid so he can travel alone away from this modern cities... come on wtf is this city in the back ok leaf village? tokyo? kyoto? lol
anyway.. who is this gil with kiba...

Overall yes. Some things are left unsettled though, and the pairings came out of nowhere. I hope the movie will solve these problems. Despite that, it felt really conclusive and nostalgic, it reminded me of the first chapters.

Too much Sasuke to my taste.

The two final chapters could be Naruto's glorification with a cliche party. He being recognized as a hero.

It seems that Kishimoto really hates Naruto, and Sasuke is his true protagonista.

So you follow a 'retarded' manga for 700 chapters and expect the ending to be good? Wait but you said you expected it to be retarded. I was just about to praise your willpower.

Kishimoto should have finished his manga after Pain/Nagato's x Naruto fight, that sealed the defeating of the Akatsuki organization.

The 4th war ruined kishimoto's manga.
We saw a lot of nonsense explosions in the pages, unexplained powers, overpower characters (madara), overused EDO TENSEI, bad plot (THAT KAGUYA STUFF IN THE END ALMOST KILLED ME).
IMO.

7/10 overall; kinda sad of what the manga became, big fan since my childhood.
Not that I didin't liked the end, but I really hated the 'war arc'

I was praying for the end: ''please god make kishimoto stop, don't let him ruin his manga more than he already did''.

To be honest, I rather prefer an all out fight to the death of Naruto and Sasuke with no talk no jutsu bullshit.

I wanted one of them to die, and it was even foreshadowed that "the next time [they] fight, one of [them] will die", is what Naruto said.

I also didnt really like the pairings, its way too weird after seeing how they suddenly became together, especially some characters like Ino with Sai, and Chouji with that girl from the Cloud Village. It kinda felt how Goku suddenly married Chichi and got kids. It's kinda off character to me, but who knows, time did changed them.

In my humble opinion, Kishimoto did a Toriyama of himself if you follow my drift.
Like Dragonball should have ended after volume 33, Naruto should have ended after Pain Nagato.

This is one of my main problems with the ending. I can tolerate NaruHina because it was developed at least a little bit, but SasuSaku was so unhealthy throughout the whole manga and there was no healing process to cover it up. Sasuke literally just said "I'm sorry for everything" and that was that. Way too forced. They should have just stayed single (if Sakura wasn't going to get with Naruto at least).

They included a funeral scene for Neji but they didn't even show Lee/Tenten/Guy. Just Naruto and Hinata...which kind of upsets me because it further solidifies to me that his death was just a "bonding experience" for them since all Hinata thought about after he died was Naruto.

The only part of the ending that felt truly natural for me was the resolution between Naruto and Sasuke. Everything else basically went unchanged/not addressed with the exception of couples and children. So Kishimoto basically pulled a Digimon on us.

It wasn't too bad, but some of the pairings...Sasuke and Sakura???(umm never), hopefully the movie is canon and can show what happened during the time skip. I think it needed another chapter or two to make the endings better as some of the characters were completely sidelined; such as Yamato, Orochimaru and the other members of taka.

Although maybe the short stories will give us the development most of us are craving

With the very last chapter, I'm satisfied. Soooo predictable but still well done I'd say.

With the overall ending, not even a little bit. It was TERRIBLE. Basically everything is wrong, as the people above me already said: random Genkidamas, powers/abilities popping out of nowhere, unbelievably bad plot... I hate Kishimoto for destroying his own masterpiece.

Exactly. I thought that it was impossible for Sasuke to end with Sakura or rather Sakura being so stupid and still loving Sasuke after everything he has done to her. Are here any SasuSaku fan? Can someone explain why someone would ship pairing, where the guy abuse and treat women so unrespectively and she still loves him? She ended raising her child alone for fuck's sake ;/
