At least Miura is releasing something even if it's not Berserk.
dang akito that's lewd as hell whoa
When/where?
Kishimoto has been saying it's the end for a couple of years now. Don't expect another arc.
Do you think this One Piece arc is going to last longer than Miura's new series? I know the new series is just six issues, but I thought it was going to be released monthly?
Also, I believe in you Togashiiiiii! Next chapter of Hunter X Hunter is coming like early 2014 or something, calling it. Now that early though.

No he hasn't
Well, we have yet to reach the fighting part of the arc. And I don't think we know the schedule of Gigantomakhia, it might as well be bi-weekly
lololol

Naruto will end soon, one way or another.

Wanna bet me 20 dollars its still around a year from now?
No. Because I don't want to think of a sad, pathetic world where there's another 800 so pages of this bullshit left to go.
Another 50 chapters of talk no jutsu? please no.

It'll get released long enough to end just before the new Idolmaster game comes out of course.

So you're saying you believe it to be true or you're just hoping it to be true?
Because I tend to doubt Sasuke actually cut the bullshit of his own accord, Madara is still alive and invincible and Orochimaru is clearly up to some shit.
To put it bluntly, both.

Why don't you just stop reading it

People think Naruto is going to end just because Kishimoto is wrapping up all the plot threads? HA! Get ready for another timeskip and Buu saga like ridiculousness, guys.
Yes, he has. At various Jump Festas, in his afterwords/forewords, etc.
Hokage exams
Since everyone wants to be Hokage now, why not have one final tournament arc!

Well where's the source for these statements then?
Cuz it's very unbelievable that Shonen Jump would end Naruto without any fanfare.

Do you have proof or are you just going to say its true

Considering the last truly great arc of Naruto was the Chuunin exam I'd be down

That could work:
End of Madara arc ---> Bullshit Buu saga-esque arc ---> timeskip ---> Naruto fights to become Hokage arc ---> timeskip ---> Naruto has a kid and is hokage, but then ditches it to suicide fight Sasuke arc. THE END
Er... I just told you.
Weekly Jump announced Dragon Ball was ending when the last episode was published...
Amusing coming from somebody who claimed right above that Kishimoto never said anything about the manga ending (a claim that obviously can't be proven).
In this 2012 interview, he says he told a character designer that the series would keep going for about another year and a half, although he now thinks it's going to be a bit longer after all:
And like I said, I've seen several comments from him about the current arc being the home stretch, but I won't look for the exact quotes, as there's only so much I'm willing to do to humor someone who so readily implies I'm making stuff up.

Ooooh, the "you can't prove God doesn't exist" argument.
You have a history and you're still claiming there's multiple instances backing up your claim, but all you've actually presented is a single, inherently vague statement that gives no reasonable indication how long the series is going to go.
No, I wouldn't be surprised if there isn't another "arc" incoming, but I don't think there's any reason to believe that the series will end any in any sane person's definition of "soon," unless Sasuke's story is straight up over and Orochimaru heel-faced for no reason at all.
Well, yeah. Basic logic.
History of making stuff up, really? Prove it.
Oh, fuck off. You claimed he never said anything about the manga ending, and I just gave you a quote that contradicts that.
Angry Grimace
Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
To be fair, the quote above (quoting you, since I can't read Japanese) isn't saying it's ending soon, it's saying it was supposed to end soon, but is going to take a bit longer. So it's not ending soon, basically.
Indeed, the irony is quite thick, here. You make claims you can't or won't prove, and when I post evidence (guess someone has to do it), you argue that it doesn't count and you want to see more.
By the way, here's more, you prick:
Kishimoto says work on the plot structure leading to the end of the series is well under way, and now it's all about drawing his way there. "Enjoy Naruto until the end!" That was right before the beginning of the current war arc.
Kishimoto told a character designer he envisioned the manga ending one year and a half from then. That's Kishimoto talking about the manga ending.
It really isn't that complicated, Angry Grimace.
He was talking about how everything seems to take longer than he anticipates, yes. Still seems fairly relevant to me that he felt he could tell somebody the end was in sight.

Erigu. AG is just provoking you lol.

That's what I was saying! Its vague enough that I don't think its reliable evidence that "this is it." I'm not saying it won't end sooner rather than later, I'm saying there isn't a definitive statement by the author that leads me to believe it; I'll believe it when Naruto is fighting Sasuke.

I envision a lot of things that get shifted around as I continue working.

Evidence has weight. I'm not going to go back and repost all the parts where you literally edited other people's posts to favor the argument you were making; the difference is that you, I and the rest of the thread were there for that and we weren't there for Kishimoto's alleged statements that its going to end imminently.
I disagree that I'm a prick.
That tells us nothing about when its going to end. I don't think that's a justified inference from that statement. It just means he knows what the ending is. It could be years from now or tomorrow.
And then he told him its not ending a year and a half from then.
I disagree. Calling me names isn't going to make your argument better.
You claimed nothing had been said about Naruto ending, that wasn't true and I proved it.
Now please tell me more about "my history".
Yeah, I didn't think you were. Funny, that.
I never said anything about the series "ending imminently". I said "Kishimoto has been saying it's the end for a couple of years now."
Show me you know something about that. Post evidence.

I think the most reasonable statement is if naruto were truly ending as soon as people think, shonen jump would at least have some fanfare about entering the final chapters/final arc/final saga/final climax, etc. Why would bleach get it and not naruto...and isnt it like its 15th anniversary year, odd to end it in such a year...
"ZOMG, you didn't quote my entire post, that's PROFOUNDLY DISHONEST!"
Really?
It's not that simple, Angry Grimace, and I really shouldn't have to explain that to you.

The really quirky art mixed with the really unnerving scenes with the FIshbowl man really remind me of Caramel Kitsch Flying Column and Ano Ko no Ie, both of which have an incredibly unique and charming art style and the odd bit of a more disturbed undertone. Definitely worth checking this one (and the other two I mentioned) out!

I supposed I should be shocked posting the entire exchange where your editing other posts was materially relevant and expliclity addressed as to why it was wrong isn't good enough for you.
Look, I'm not the one extending this completely inane conversation and I'm not the one calling other people pricks and idiots. Chill out.

Well, it started off intriguing but I felt like there was way too little progression of any kind over the course of the eleven chapters to keep it interesting. The characters are really flat too. Aside from the art and the initially unnerving atmosphere there really isn't anything here. The Fishbowl Man is hella creepy though.
edit: Damn wonzo, that's way fancier than mine
