But Kishi did say he could kill off the old cast if he wants it to be done.
Saying it and actually going through it are two massively different things.
True. I wonder what the impact would be if the old cast were killed off.
:wut:
Kurama isn't evil now so I don't see any reason he (it?) couldn't live freely by itself.
This^^He'll naturally align himself with the Uzumaki family and Konoha.
There could be some people out there waiting for the oppritunity to catch Kurama and use him for evil purposes regardless whether he is good or not
And? I think it's more difficult to catch Kurama than to catch a kid Jinchuuriki (like Naruto for example). Naruto was literally running free with 0 protection from Konoha. Tbh he should've been put in some dungeon so Kyuubi was safe.
Sometimes sacrifices are needed for the greater good.
