Digimon didnt end taixsora? how the hell did that happen?
The writers randomly decided halfway through the second season that Sora actually liked Matt instead, even though Tai was finally fessing up that he liked her. He even tried asking her out and she blew him off.
In the final episode, they flash forward fifteen years for some unknown reason, and Sora and Matt are MARRIED. With two kids. The Sorato fans, who previously thought they hadn't a chance of their pairing making it, were VERY smug and insufferable all of a sudden. Gack.
(I was also a MattxMimi fan, so I was doubly pissed off. Oh, and TK and Kari didn't hook up either; make that thricely pissed off. Let's not even get into the Adult Digidestined's retarded career choices, either.)
Bringing it back to Naruto now. I PRAY that Naruto does not end with a flash-forward episode to the future for this exact reason. (Oh, okay, fine; I would burst in a fit of squeeing if we saw Naruto and Sakura as the First Couple of Konoha.) But I really think it's for the best if the book doesn't close on them as adults. Digimon's attempt at it was beyond poorly handled; I just don't want to see that happen to Naruto.
Just as I do not want to see the unlikely pairing of Naruto and Hinata come roaring up out of nowhere to knock the infinitely more plausible NaruSaku out of the water. But I have much more faith in Kishi-san than I did in whatever fugu-eating crackheads were penning Digimon.
