So it's the latest game, not the one with the Kushina ending?

Nah ninja storm 3 ended with Naruto defeating Tobi with killer bee in the ninja world war before he was revealed to be obito

And that also ended with a minato/Kushina and Naruto/Sakura parallel as well

When I first read the final fight between Naruto and sasuke 2 years ago I was really expecting more out of it but at the same time knew that Kishi couldn't provide enough content within 5 chapters before 699 - 700. I was honestly hoping they would go through stages in the fight starting with their basic states and just progress further on with their powers until they achieved their final powers but instead they just powered up straight into max right in the beginning which didn't bring enough tension through the rest of fight, which it really needed.

I was also kind of let down about the giant monster fight. I agreed that it should be added into the fight in general because it is part of their arsenal of abilities but to me I didn't like they ended their max power final clash with a giant monster battle.

Personally I would have liked if they fought with their natural bodies instead, with Naruto in his rikudou form and sasuke maybe covered in Susanno armor (for more flexibility) and just continue from there......then continue the 2nd half of the fight in a exhausted state.

But again like I stated before 5 chapters, not enough space for the content we were expecting.

As for the animation goes it does give it more content which I was expecting and does add some touching moments as well, one of which I was really impressed with was in the final clash when Naruto was creating his rasengan. Each character that was important to him was each adding their own spin into the rasengan with Sakura being the last. And I gotta admit that was the most touching moment I liked about it just because of how Sakura "spinned" the rasengan herself, because it was a nice animation edit and also for obvious reasons

Overall I liked the added content they mixed into the final fight but I still think that it wasnt enough to give what their final fight "SHOULD HAVE BEEN"

You never saw Naruto vs Pain fight scene in the anime ???

Oh yeah I've seen that animation

Why do you think I said "some of their animations" lol

As much as I don't like studio Pierrot anymore these days, I have to admit that they at least made Naruto's and Sasuke's last fight look good and epic enough. Some of their animators are pretty good with choreography with some of their past animation fights in the anime and they did some justice to this last fight too....

@moon drop
That's his "final" form.
It's so cool to the point it's acknowledge by sorachi.

Kubo is known to make cool character design.

For me, his hollow form bankai is the best.

Oh I don't mean his "mugetsu" transformation lol but that was cool

Um what I meant is something reminiscent to that design though. Instead of his body being covered in "getsuga", parts of his body is covered in literal "Black Metal Armor" combined with his robes and as a finishing touch he has a new "black hollow mask" with the horn features attached.

I'm more imagining a design that encompasses his symbolance with the "black sun", but a different a approach with the official "Mugetsu" version.
