Basically I'm like 70 chapters behind in the manga and I can't decide if I should read and catch up now or wait for the anime because many people said that the manga rushed and ruined the series at the end so it's better to just wait for the anime because the anime usually explores more in detail.

So do u think I should just read the 70 chapters of the manga or wait for the anime? People said the anime will make u end the series on a good note because the manga was rushed and ruined it. Or is the manga the way to go?

Thoughts?

If you want to see how it ends in a "better" note, you likely should watch the anime. But if you want to know how it actually ends, then manga it is. But I find the ending okay. Not too bad or anything, but yeah...

The Naruto Sasuke fight really sucks in the manga.The anime will do it the justice it deserves so if you just want to know how it ends then go with the manga.If you want some development and quality along the way without getting spoilt then he anime it is

I was impatients for waiting. Manga was good but honostly if you can be patient, you will get a lot more out of the anime.

Read the manga. The ending was rushed, but the anime won't solve that. Plus the animation lately has been sub-par. At least the manga's art is consistently beautiful. The only thing you'll do by waiting for the anime is by wasting your time waiting week by week, with a high chance of filler interrupting. Just read the manga now and then watch the anime after.

Do u guys think it'd be a good move to watch the anime and end on a better note THEN read the manga just to know how it canonically ended? This way the manga wouldn't ruin it for me

Manga is more consistent and doesn't add fillers, but I think the Naruto and Sasuke at the VoTE will be better in the anime. Your choice really.

Keep in mind that the current fillers are going on until April (I think), and this is definitely not the last of them.

I would just read the manga to find out how it ends. Then you can enjoy the anime(if you like it) without feeling rushed or anything, since fillers take up quite a lot of time.

So, you still didn't reach chapter 631? Sweet! THEN DROP THE ENTIRE MANGA UNTIL YOU CAN! Because after chapter 626 the entire story becomes a mind**** with double shipping fanservice (as it wasn't enouhg already), retcons, story rewrittes, more DBZ explosions and less ninja!

Abadon it now till you can!

this is my opinion of course but for me ever since the juubi revival arc the animation has been really horrendous, i think i have only seen like 3 or 4 chapters i actually like after that, the others in my opinion are terrible as their artwork is terrible, the timings are not right, sometimes i feel i'm watching a slowmotion video, i had really high expectations after the juubi revival arc because there´s so much good material to work with but almost all material has been utterly ruined and destroyed in the anime, i prefer way better to read the manga over the anime also you get filler episodes after any important event in the plot.
