I think people forget the Hokage is nominated and to be honest Sasuke is in the position Madara was were he just wont be nominated... Sure he'll have redemtion for saving the ninja world but im sure Konoha will still be wary of his missing nin past. To me the Sasuke Kishi has written will get butthurt and the fight we all know is going to happen will,in my OPINION, be set up nicely... I mean there is no way,if kidhi is honest in his writing,that Sasuke will just take a back seat and be like 'WOW CONGRATS NARUTOOOOO'

Surely this makes Sasuke a villain type again and if he loses (which he probably would for reasons i won't discuss) then i doubt Sasuke will just stick around after attacking Naruto the Village hero. He would probably take off and too me that is just Madara recycled. Kishi does love recycling characters and character dynamics e.g ashura and indra more or less are recycled into hashirama and madara then Nardo and Sauce, the dynacis of team hiruzen team kakashi and team minato dynamics are recycled as well but this would be too much.
Of course this is a HYPOTHESIS and could be completely wrong so please don't get offended and whatnot if you fanboy Sasuke.

If he's the one to free them from IT i see no reason why it would be impossible for some to want Sasuke as Hokage.

He'd only do that to protect his own interests and further his own plans. If Bin Laden helped find a cure for the common cold, would you nominate him to be president?

1. That is just your assumption
2. It's not like Sasuke is going to tell them that.

If you did read the last few chapters of Naruto (not sure which chapter exactly), Obito tells kakashi that he told Naruto to become the "SEVENTH" hokage, whereas Kakashi were to be the 6th, so Kishi already used an "escape rope" to get out of the corner he would have written himself into "if" he were to continue with the Naruto vs Sasuke for position of the Hokage.

Remember that Hashi initially assumed Madara would be Hokage? The village voted and generations of buthurt ensued.

Sasuke and Naruto aren't dumb. They both understand what happened to the Uchiha clan and the ramifications of selecting Either of them as Hokage. There won't be a repeat of Madara with Sasuke.

Yeah he's written himself into a corner, with this and more. This war has been going on for years now. Kaguya was just shoved down our throats, with little hints that she was the obvious puppet master, let alone Black Zetsu.

Pacing is a lost art so far in this series. I fear for the Naruto vs Sasuke battle, because I think Kishi's only options are to go cheesy(fight for the title) or have it over a clash of ideals.

I understand what you've been trying to say, and in one glance, it may seem that way. It's good that you can related something like it with all the events occurred till today.

But the reason why Naruto and Sasuke become the center/booster of this series progress is because Kishi wanna show how the new generation of shinobi such as them both, which have almost similar traits with their ancestors in everything, can change the cycled fate dawned on ninja practitioners, especially when it comes to leadership and hatred. Thus, i trust Kishi has a plan to cut the loop and lay it as a long, straight string of destiny. It maybe look ridiculous for now, but i bet in the end, fans will get his inner purpose.
It's blasphemy if Kishi writes/draws Naruto series just to make such repetitive situations will never meet a fullstop.

Kishi's points are clear:

  • Cycle of hatred
  • History repeat itself
  • Longing friendship,
  • Family abandonment
  • The strong rules the weak
  • Never-ending wish & dream
  • Love can be either destructive or motivational
  • Loyalty lies on one's belief and care.

PS: I once became an amateur mangaka, even if i did it for fun, i found myself in a slump quite often, but the one that kept me going was my readers' supports. So have faith with Kishi. He could go on drawing because he trusted us fans.
