There's going to be a movie, also
Aside from vagabond I wouldn't recommend any of those.

That's cool, taste is subjective and my point is I try and suggest people read non shonen
How can people say this after the Fishman Island arc.
Hell the show went down in quality once Brook joined in.
thriller bark and fishman island arcs were both pretty poor imo, but the show picks up massively after those, the latest arc is legit good
and anyway, one piece at its worst still matches naruto at its best

I love Pokken!
OMG YES FINALLY
It's gone downhill for me since the timeskip. Crew doesn't feel the same anymore.
sure, fuck everyone who dislikes bad shows which are way beyond their expiration
naruto fans...

Nah, the Summit War stuff was hype as hell. Fishman Island was too long for its own good and Punk Hazard was pretty unexciting but Dressrosa is a return to form.

If only... ( .__.)
Dressrosa is already one of the best arcs and it isn't even finished yet!

I've been reading Naruto for years
But for me I am fine with it ending... They almost addressed everything and the series should'nt asspull another villian just to extend the series further

I removed it from my post because some actual Naruto fans are celebrating, but seriously, fuck anyone that's using this as an opportunity to bash it. It's clear this is the end of an era for a lot of people who grew up with this shit for over a decade, so is it really necessary to be a cunt about it?
They probably won't even have a proper fight. There will be flash backs and a lot of talking, my answer this, your answer that...

Not ending anytime soon.
On Naruto, looking forward to that ending. Kishimoto will probably do something predictable, but it will be memorable nonetheless.
I mean, where else could they go? Naruto started off as something that was at least rooted in the world they created but like every other Shonen completely fucking jumped the shark at some point.
I guess I'll read the last few chapters, but they've run out of ways to outdo themselves. Don't really have a choice.

About time. I gave up at the end of Pain arc, I remember being hype as hell for what would happen after the timeskip but it was such a let down.
It should have ended with Naruto vs Sasuke at the Valley of the End.

End of a fucking era, but honestly, the manga has been pretty lackluster since part two, and progressively got worse and worse until the Madara/Kaguya series of asspulls that ruined the memorable end the manga deserved, all things consireded.
The fact that it's ending in five weeks is not very promising either.
I remember a fake spoiler at the time "the mistery behind Pain" was a thing, that had Pain pictured like an Evil Naruto send back into the past "programmed" to kill bijuus. I feel that even this fanfiction-like development would have been better that the crap we got in the end. Shueshia editors are fucking shit.

finally. will totally not read his next work.
well Hiatus x Hiatus is good but still.
how about you try to read some good manga instead of shounen garbage.

Wow, it's actually happening.
I dropped Naruto after Madara got trolled by freaking Zetsu. Naruto's been a mess for along time, particularly after the Pain arc, but that was just the last straw. Guess I'll pick it up on November 5th and finish it all in one go.
Such a waste of potential. Went from being my absolute favorite series bar none to something I couldn't even bother keeping up with anymore. Loved pre-timeskip Naruto and enjoyed the first post-timeskip arc, but it's been a seriously bumpy road since Sai and Yamato's introduction. And then there's this War, ugh. One or two cool moments (Guy), but so many great opportunities completely overlooked. Surprised I managed to continue it for as long as I did.
Guess Bleach will be next soon enough. Dropped that one during that Fullbring mess, and going through it again on Toonami makes it clear to me why I did. I'll only pick it up when I hear that one of my favorite characters (Rukia, Soi Fon, Kenpachi, etc.) actually got to do something cool...which usually only lasts for one chapter before they become irrelevant again.
Meanwhile One Piece has like a decade to go or something ridiculous like that. And I ain't even mad.

Not really, Shokugeki no Soma and Assassination Classroom are both doing extremely well (with AC already doing Bleach numbers and Soma not far behind), and can be considered suitable replacements. The whole concept of the big 3 died a few years ago, with Bleach tanking and Naruto doing slightly worse then it used to. Also overseas sales aren't really that relevent since the anime boom of the early 2000s died down, and also something like 95% of manga revenue is generated in Japan so foreign markets don't have much influence on their decisions.
Battle manga as a whole are also a lot less relevant now. A decade ago Jump was dominated by them, but in recent years they've become more diverse with only like 5 out of about 20 on goings being battle manga.

Terrible news to wake up too. At least we already knew the final outcome. I wanted a part 3 so much.

I don't see any way for there to be a satisfactory ending. The last fight has barely just begun. Sucks that it seems like were gonna have to wait for the movie for a real ending.

Finally. Should have happened a long time ago. Part 2 has been a wreck but ive been reading it for almost a decade so it's a little word knowing that it's actually going to end soon.
I don't think we will see a real end of the fight, maybe like another clash and then a timeskip into the future, just seeing Naruto and Sasuke both being fine, just Sasuke abandoned the village or something like this

Yup up to the end of the rescue arc the manga and anime are incredible, in my top 5 ever.

Sakura and Sasuke die. Naruto commits suicide? Best ending ever.
It's been years since I've properly sat down and invested time in Naruto (I've read the occasional war chapter a couple times just to see what was going on over like the last 3 years). So not a big loss for me personally, but I do remember all the time I devoted to this manga/anime back in its heyday ('04 - '07) and I appreciate the series just for those times.

This is the only ending I'll accept. Naruto x Sauce

The series never recovered from the introduction of the Rinnegan. Kishi's increased emphasis on the Six Path Sage's powers and legacy were the worst thing to happen to the series. And his handling of Sasuke's development has been so daft that I can't even get hyped about his last fight with Naruto anymore.
If I'd known what was coming, I'd have rather seen the series end with the Naruto-Pain fight. That was full of bullshit in and of itself but was still pretty fun to read, which is more than I can say for most of what followed.

D: I didn't know that. hope it keeps good ratings in SJW
Damn, it's going to be weird seeing new monthly manga with no Naruto among them after 15 years of it. Still, glad to see Kishimoto is finally ending it. What Tite has done to Bleach is pretty damn sad.
Still, of the manga ending this year it's Claymore that means the most to me. That was a fun ride, and the last chapters have been nothing short of amazing. Hopefully Naruto fans get something as satisfying as that.

Damn, this soon. I am not ready for this. Ending the series at chapter 699 is really weird.
Go away.
Don´t make shit up guy.
