Welp, time to drop the show again.

I'm done for good now. From my POV, the show is over. Naruto (the character) has accomplished the goal he set out upon at the beginning: becomes a top-rate ninja, got appreciated by his village, and was acknowledged by Sasuke. He didn't get Sakura, but apparently he doesn't want her anymore. So... the story is over. I don't care what happens from here on out.

Wow. Four episodes??? That's a lot shorter than I thought they were gonna do. Confused

ForneverWorld made it sound like this'll be going on until 2020.



1. It won't end in 4 episodes. Magazine posts only max new 4 episodes title.
2. Do not watch that retard kid.


Forneverworld is an adult. I believe the "retard kid" you're thinking of is Double4Anime.

Moving on, I really hope future fillers actually expand on the mythos, such as covering the other wars or showing what Minato's life was like as a genin. We got the Otsutsuki arc, so I'm holding out hope.

I guess I'm an outlier as usual, but having seen the first one, I really liked it. I was expecting more rehash of their 8-10 year old selves going through training, which we've seen a thousand times now, but this is set even earlier, around 4-5 years old. And it was done with more artistry than I would've expected from this series. If the rest follow suit, I'm on board.

I really would of rather Naruto: The Last in TV form. that way they could've added more things for it to make more sense and to also show spoiler[Naruto and Hina's Wedding] instead of it just being a short thing in the credits of the movie. That kinda annoyed me a bit.

I don't mind filler but I have no interest in seeing them as like 4 year olds. This is like Naruto Babies.

well I mean Double4Anime takes FilthyFrank seriously so of course he's more likely special needs
