Somehow, Kishimoto just announced that Naruto will take more than 1.5 years to finish.

Go figure... I just read that somewhere, but the guy didn't include a link. Leave it to Kishi to milk a manga for what it's worth even though this war feels like the end tongue.gif

That doesn't sound all that surprising. 1 1/2 years is about 60-70 chapters (given holidays and possible sick days, etc.) They've gotta deal with Madara then "Madara" (tobi) Sasuke's gotta find out what their relationships with one another are (the Madara's <-- do I smell a sitcom?) and Naruto and Sasuke gotta duke it out, one way or another/ redemption or death. Oh, and we still have to deal with Orochimaru and [Kabuto?] I forget if they took him along alive or not. Oh and you know... NaruSaku has to happen still (please Kishimoto-sensei). And Naruto's gotta become Hokage. Plenty, plenty to fill those chapters with.

I guess I thought it would end a bit sooner but the length doesn't matter as long as there's a good ending.

Not too unexpected. Until 2014 gives him just enough to finish up all the storylines he has started within the war.

exactly. People forget actually how few chapters come out a year. And each chapter is only about 17 pages so not that much stuff can happen per chapter. Let's also remember that this series has been going for 13 years now. another 1 1/2 doesn't seem extreme. Frankly, I'm glad the ending won't be rushed.

Not really enough time for another time skip. Unless he makes it the last couple chapters where he ends it by showing where they are 5 years from now...

Sounds about right. smile.gif As people have already said, we still have the Naruto vs. Sasuke fight to deal with after the Shinobi War is over. I'd actually had the manga pegged for a 2013 finish until Oro and Sasuke walked out of the war.

Shinobi War -> Aftermath and rebuilding? -> Naruto vs. Sasuke -> End with Naruto as Hokage and married to Sakura.

Hopefully, we'll have at least a few more NaruSaku moments until the manga finishes! narusaku.gif

Yeah, hopefully it won't be a bunch of flashbacks and then the epilogue is only the last few pages of the last chapter.

Well 2014 is not that far away. Actually 2014 IS 1.5 years so maybe he's not finishing until after 2014 maybe.

Not really all that surprising. 1.5 year doesn't really seem like much considering all the plot threads that still needs to be resolved. This also makes me think that the war arc won't be the final arc. If it does, I think it will then have been the longest Naruto arc ever.

I called it:

There's going to be one more arc after this. Which I'm sure will be them dealing with Sasuke once and for all. They can obviously show off their teamwork vs him.

I remember explaining somewhere that there has to be at least one more arc and on top of that, didn't Kishi say he wanted Naruto to see the challenges of parenthood?

good.

I'm think the Sasuke fight, and subsequent buildup, needs to be in it's own arc. Not tacked onto the back end of the "Previous Generation War" arc. Naruto needs to deal with the enemies his father couldn't surpass, then tackle the present one that only he can take down.

I'm wondering if he's roughly targeting for the first week of October 2014, that will be the publishing anniversary issue of Naruto, and would take it to exactly 15 years. Big celebratory final chapter (hope they give him extra pages for the typical final manga chapter time skip epilogue, say 50 pages... biggrin.gif So we're pretty much guaranteed another Naruto movie before the story ends, maybe two. If the series ends right around the time the 2014 movie comes out then that movie may be a series epilogue too. I'm kind of hoping for an October 2014 date. Then there might be a 2015 movie that has events that take place after the epilogue chapter of the manga. smile.gif
