Watch Dragonball Z/GT .Its pure action anime.No romance BS there.Helped take my mind off this BS ending

[Hanabi]

i feel nothing in these last chapters. not anger, not disgust. it's just so absurd that i feel nothing seeing nhcanon!kid and sscanon!kid  

[applesauceful]

The more I think about it, the more empty I feel. I really need something to take my mind off of it I guess, but I doubt anything will help the sense of betrayal and disgust. Any ideas to ease the pain?

 

Nope, I'm in the same boat. Try to read manga, just think about NS. Try to watch an anime same result. Going to try to watch a live action TV Drama or something but it's not going to be easy. I wish I had some Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. episodes, FitzxSimmons is a pretty fantastic ship

[natalieuciha]

maybe this is realy kishimoto 

https://scontent-a-h...284&oe=54F3B223

 

it was written kishis fb account 2 or 3 days before the release of spoilers ...either kishi or his assitant...what im disgusted is the lack of respect for ns fans..the only thing he delivered to  us was an half assed ''sorry'' and an F U in the manga...kishi seems to be a lot like sasuke..and you guys wonder how sasuke got away with so many things?its kishi's view of things we are talking about here..i know it might not be him but the coincidence its too big

[DarkRadeon]

Although he did not do NS,he also fcked up NH in many ways too.I can give you guys a lot of posts NH guys who are not happy with the ending at all saying they at least wanted some interaction between the 2.Maybe its for the best,because I myself wouldnt want NS to happen in the fcked up way NH did not to mention Naruto being shown as a failed parent.It would have shat on NS in many ways 

[redragon88]

Well, it's been an interesting couple of days to say the least. This will be my only post here.

 

My personal message to Kishimoto:

 

[dejavu]

Does anyone have an idea what the Japanese people are thinking about the ending? If I'm not mistaken, sasusaku is the most famous couple over there, but are they happy with this rushed ending?

Im not sure but we get the chapter way earlier than them (japan) for some odd reason.

I have a lot of friends who are NH and SS fan (because i was one of them before).
they were all in a high even before they read the manga. I can totally understand them. They even tell me that its not too late for me to go back..but i said i couldnt..when they finally calmed down i asked them:

Does this really satisfy you?
Without any ounce of doubt... does this really feel like a complete win? Do you guys just want to win so badly that its okay whatever the method is to achieve it?
are you gonna ignore the elephant in the room that is Naruto's feelings and Sakura's surprising growth towards Naruto.

Since i too loved nh and ss before..and a small part of me stayed there even after i ship NS. I just want to say that ending wouldnt satisfy that small part of me. If they had done it so like what they did with NS development then i might have accepted all of this now.

That small part of me that is ss and nh felt INSULTED.

They ended up together but they never won the fight. It was just handed, spoonfed, BUT NEVER WON. NO FEELING OF REWARD. thats why it could not satisfy.
It was half cooked, unprepared and was not won. Because it did not fight head on.

Naruto and Sasuke had to fight head on to arrive at an agreement and realization. But kishi did not allow this.

Its like you won but did not even fight because you ran away with the trophy before the battle even start.

Idk.. i told myself before that regardless of how the shipping ends i would still be happy nonetheless bec i love the characters and i could easily adapt to whatever the outcome is. But it didnt. 700 was like a different manga. Too different that i could not recognize the characters. There was no connection. It isnt just about the pairings.. everything else seems out of place. Naruto's son felt and did the same way young Naruto did and felt as an orphan which is worst.. because he felt that loneliness even if his parents are both alive.

Im trying to cope with this epilogue by reading other mangas but it only makes me want to see NaruSaku badly. I want to see Naruto happy and determined like he does before 700. But the man i saw that ending doesnt have any spark. What is the meaning of him being a hokage now anyway? Does that hokage meeting bear more significance than Naruto being with his family, overjoyed and has this feeling of completeness??

You can do what I have been doing.  Come up with your own characters in your own fictional universe and make things make sense.  Let people behave the way they should in terms of the way the characters are created.  No fan fiction, just a totally new story that belongs to you.  Luckily I was working on my own stories for fun as it helps me get to sleep.  But I realised it is a really good way to get a way from that troll ending.

 

Alternatively, read the works of authors who cared about their characters and had them behave as they should.  Recommend Lord of the Rings.  Or if you want Japanse read Eiji Yoshikawa's Musashi or Taiko, great books of historical fiction.

 

Or gym.

 

Or punching bag.

 

Or rum.

[Swagkura]

or a NH redux since Sarada is a stalker

Good point. I thought she would at least be kinda cool. But the cycle must continue

I guess it's a blessing in disguise, in a way, no one really gets what they want.

[DarkRadeon]

Also Hinata turned out to be that mystery woman in that sketch in the end.Makes no difference anyway now I guess.If this ending hadnt come when it did this news would have brought us down and tortured us even more

Excellent comment.  I have run out of likes but this was too good to say something.  The ending section was indeed like something entirely different.

I actually felt bad. Not just for us NS but for NH, SS and the whole Naruto fandom. Esp those who grew up with this manga like me.

Its not even about the pairings anymore that is sad.

[Namikaze Sakura]

Naruto brotherhood...

[ns.Believe.It]

Last words from Naruto to Sakura... (look at that happy face.............kitten!  )

And Sakura.....did not even thank Naruto, did she? She did not even acknowledge the POaL and everything that Naruto had done for her happiness. Instead she was busy fangirling about Sasuke-kooon and planning on leaving Naruto and Konoha to go on a journey with her 'love'.  

 

Even Kakashi acknowledged Naruto. Sakura did not so much as mention his name! 

 

What on Earth was Kishimoto thinking when he wrote this crap?!

Move on buddy. The more you think about it, the more you'll get caught in it. Remember the happy times we spent here on the forum. Remember all the positive things we did here. More than the pairing, its the journey that matters. And moreover, journey with people like those in here, makes it more memorable. NF and NB doesn't have this. This site...is the best! So what if NS didn't go canon. The journey with people in here was full of fun and a complete experience itself! No matter the end....if we lose...we learn from it. Its okay. Just let it go....Bring positivity in you and I assure you that negativity won't stand a chance. Remember your interactions in here. How we used to poke fun of NH and SS and laugh at their idiosyncracies. Its over buddy....learn from it. Tomorrow is a new day....start it on a positive note. Give it your all and don't think about the consequences. Just do it....work without expecting and you get what you want. Just leave it now...not everything goes the way you want in life. Its not even fair at times. But have faith in yourself for you hold the key to your success and happiness and no one else! Start afresh...buddy!

I hope this helps...

[Catwho]

A funny thought occurred to me.

 

I know that manga publishers in Japan, especially Shounen Jump, has been trying to combat pirated releases.  We were all rejoicing (briefly) at this earlier than anticipated release of the chapters. 

 

What if they deliberately leaked a fake chapter 700? As punishment.

nb is actually quite funny. there was a time (june 2014?) when ns fans dominated the pairing thread and there were barely any nh fan. just ask AHK.

[SuperChief]

This ending is going to haunt me for years. It's at least going weigh heavily on my mind for weeks. I hate that.

 

I suppose we'll always have fan fiction. I was working on a piece already, it's about 6-7k words and takes place 19 years later (lol). It was supposed to commemorate the ending of Naruto, but now, now it's just my way of coping. I don't think I can ever read the manga again or even watch the anime. I'm just done with it all.
