Ok so since we've seen all these spoilers from chapter 700, I couldn't help but have one question. How is the movie canon after this? Naruto and the fodder Hyuuga don't seem to be together in the movie. Is the movie taking place between the current events in the manga and the events in 700? I doubt it since Naruto looks pretty mature in the movie already. What are your thoughts?

The movie explains the events between 699 and 700.

If those scans are real, then obviously "The Last" is a prequel to ch.700, and will probably explain how everything happened. Not that it's going to be a good explanation, these pairings suck so hard...

The last takes place 2 years after 699 and 700 takes place something something years after the last.

The movie explains how they get together and such, it's the blank between 699-700, the order is - (699>Movie>700)

It's been clear for awhile now that The Last takes place between ch. 699 and 700. Kishimoto himself stated that it's connected to the manga. It will explain why Naruto and Hinata are together in ch. 700.

Why do people still have this question. When Kishi himself stated its canon. Anyone else denying this, is simply making it up.

He also wrote and designed characters for the games. Are they canon now too?

If it ain't drawn in the manga first its not canon.

It's an addition of the story, which he believes to be true.
He never said the game characters were true.

kishimoto is writing it

^^^^this and Kishimoto said recently that he has connected the movie in every way to the story. (Even without saying it, it is canon unless the author says it is not. In this case, the author has actually said it is.)

Its two years after the manga
Kishi said it connects to the manga and goes beyond
Fillers are based off the manga and road to ninja used elements of the plot but,this is an actual continuation.

Why don't you,you know actually look this stuff up

NH is canon in the epilogue.I know you dont like NaruHina but unfotunately for you trying to force yourself into thinking the movie isnt canon wont help because the manga is ending with NH and SS

Two years after not in between

Care to explain how that annoying Hyuga and Naruto aren't together in the movie, even though you claim it not to take place between the 2 last chapters?

@The other people: Thanks for the answer.

I don't contest its canon attribute, even though I won't bother to watch a movie, nor read a chapter that revolves around pairings. I'll stop at 699.
