A friend pointed out me this thing: If Sakura really heals both arms, so why Naruto has the bandages at his arm in the movie if it supposed to be really healed?

I say she just reattaches his arm but the arm is too badly damaged. Maybe it takes time to heal completely or maybe it never fully heals and Naruto will have to wear those bandages for his entire life.

And Sasuke at this point I believe he doesn't have a left arm anymore.

Horrible thought in my head:*pictures Hinata holding Naruto's severed hand*
"I'm keeping this. It is mine."

I laughed when I marines her saying that with the Madara face XD

Sakura can use Katsuyu right? Maybe she recovered some chakra and was able to bring both back but not in tip top shape. I don't think we've seen Sasuke's hand either so.. I really doubt Naruto's arm is prosthetic though. Can't say the same for Sasuke <_< In the movie his arm looks fine.

 

which arm are you talking about?

I don't want to expect too much from Kishimoto... this chapter made me realize that he is too tired to keep playing ninja. NS is the most probable pairing... at this point, so it may be realized, but it's much easier to forget it or get off with some hint.

 

It's funny, this chapter just made me feel Kishimoto had the ending in his head for a long time, and the editor just asked him all that time to milk the story. It's like he's finally unleashed. I think Kishimoto didn't want to write Naruto for all those long years.

IMO, it would have been better if the editor just let Kishimoto did as he please. Now he's doing as he please, and it's a lot more vivid.
The difference is flagrant.
The feeling to end this beautifully is passing through this chapter.

After reading more pages than I should I just wanna say this: The negativity of some people here is surely surprising NS is definitely more likely to happen than an open ending. Now the question is: will it have a good resolution? Of course not that was impossible in the first place...

 

Like somebody here already said the romance was damaged because of the crappy love triangle. In all seriousness, Sakura should have fallen out of love with Sasuke 300 chapters ago. And the same for Hinata, realistically speaking, her "love" is so much of love as my teenage crush on Blake Lively was, she barely knows the guy there's nothing in there   only the SP fillers can make it somewhat believable and that's extremely debatable... 

 

I don't expect a good resolution, in terms of romance, since Kishi decided to make Sakura to still love Sasuke and make her feelings for Naruto conviniently forgotten or ambiguous.

 

So the people that are disappointed because NS won't be believable, well I'm surprised so many of you thought it could still have a good resolution, there would never be a good resolution because Kishi decided to play with pairings and characters. For example a sudden epiphany of Sakura was never going to make it believable (c'mon this is love we're talking about not some scooby-doo "so the owner used the werewolf mask to get an indemnization"), to have an epiphany she first would have to realize there might be something besides friendship in regards to Naruto, which she, for the sake of the triangle credibility (if there was such a thing in the first place), never did. After Yamato's more than obvious hint she could have started to notice, but what do we get? Nothing. If in that moment in time she had the best oportunity to think about her feelings and she didn't do it, what made you think she would do it latter on when there were no more hints close to this level of obviousness.

 

Of course he couldn't make Sakura love Naruto, the triangle would lose is surprise effect because it would make the outcome obvious, and for that I blame Kishi because he never made Sakura's love for Sasuke have any sort of basis to be called as such, if he had done so he could have made the triangle more credible.

 

So, expect NS next chapter but don't expect a good resolution, the best case you might get is an epiphany (or a hidden epiphany that happened in the past and Kishimoto decided to not show before ). A satisfactory resolution would only be possible if the next movie covered Sakura and Naruto's relationship growth and you just get an epilogue in the manga worth of NS.

I think both Jugo and Karin can fix Sasuke's arm in the future.

[Fenris]

Does anybody think one of them is going to slip into the 'darkness' of death and Sakura is gonna have to make a choice..? 

[Derock]

I think both Jugo and Karin can fix Sasuke's arm in the future.

 

There's also Orochimaru and Kabuto.

[六道仙人]

but they need both hands to make the sign for dispeling the Mugen Tsukuyomi. I guess Sakura will make a rough healing on their arms...

[Otaru]

oh god...something just came to me..

 

What if we get a parallel to that scene where Sakura hugs Sasuke in the hospital and Naruto is just there awkwardly smiling and realizing that whatever he does, it won't make her love him and that she's all for Sasuke?

 

What if in that moment he looks over to Hinata :| and actually considers giving up on Sakura for her?

 

.....

 

am I too paranoid? lol

 

anyways, I honestly don't think a NS moment will happen next chapter/chapters if anything probably a T7 moment and then the release of IT and everyone's reactions and stuff

 

On the contrary, I can totally see Sakura hugging Naruto and Sasuke watching with a smile on his face. LOL

 

And Naruto will not give up on Sakura. It's heavily implied in all the story. He will never give up on anything. He doesn't love Hinata. Just open your eyes and stop being so scared. Did Naruto gave up on Sasuke ? He could have consider Sai or Gaara a better friend. He never gave up.

[LadyGT]

Right. I wonder if they will stick with taka for a little longer.


Now that I think about it, a movie about orochimaru would have been better. You know, is he going to be an ally or villan..?!

But nay, let's talk about hyuugas :/

Naruto's arm.

@NSmakessense: What happened to people thinking that NS would be resolved for sure? This chapter didn't even affect it. If anything it sets up for Sakura to show up and NS becoming canon.

But I said NS would happen   I never doubted that, I said it in the beginning of the text

Damn, am I the only one expecting NS next chapter aka at the end of the manga?

went back to the fourth page to find this.

 

I feel like I'm the only one who thinks so too

I WAS DRINKING COKE WHILE READING THIS! HOW DARE YOU! Now I have to clean my desk T.T

I read like 5  pages of people saying open ending that I wanted to facewall really hard

What if taka wasn't affected by the IT? Eheh

[Otaru]

Hey, I want Kishi to give me a NS kiss as a birthday present. A girl can dream, right?

 

 

No, the way Naruto and Sasuke made peace this chapter proves that Kishimoto will make it easy for NS too. Naruto won't demand anything from Sakura. He will just see it in her eyes or something.

 

In truth, we all know Naruto wouldn't demand anything on her. Never. It would be OOC for him.

It's just as he said in that filler.

I think it will be easy too between Naruto and Sakura. All the development is here for a reason. They just need a small push now. It was the same with Sasuke. Sasuke changed easily in the end because of everything else. The changing was slow that's all. It would have been impossible to change Sasuke in just one day. He was too hurt by life. He needed time and proofs, and a bit of maturity. Also, in the end, he was so tired. His soul just get real in the end. Time helped.

[Sakamaki Izayoi]

I think Sasuke won't get his left arm recovered.

This is Naruto.

I laughed when I marines her saying that with the Madara face XD

I am going to hell.
