So, I'm curious: Do you think this novel is the end of the road for Sakura?
Do you think there will be more for her character in the new series? That she will be included in the storyline in her own right. Or is this the end of her development? From now on we'll primarily see her in the background of Sarada's at-home scenes, giving context to the actions of other characters. ("When I was young and on Team 7, Naruto acted the same wasy as Bolt....")
And since the books exclude other major characters (Sasuke, Hinata, Naruto and Orochimaru, among others)...do you think all these books might just be a way to put a punctuation mark on the stories of characters we won't be hearing too much from again?
