:NO:
I'll...*sniff*... miss...ITACHI! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
That lovable little cockroach - you think he's dead but he just keeps coming back.
Sure the Cycle of Hatred could (probably will) end with a few epic battles, more revelations... no doubt some epic/ridiculous 'power-ups' and Sakura will cry out 'Sasuke-kuuuuuuuun!' once more, you know, for old times sake... and Kakashi will more than likely survive them all in the end. So **** Naruto's dream of being Hokage, and Sasuke's declaration and Sakura's 'But I'm the Godaime's disciple/b*tch!' - Kakashi will get the hat.
... that all means so little to me when the end of the manga means the END OF ITACHI.
It's sad day when you accept your own rabid fan-girling.
Still, on the plus side there's a good chance Sasuke will die - permanently. Or better yet, Sakura could die in perhaps a Neji-like manner finally making herself useful and ridding us and Naruto-verse of her stupidity/existence.
:hooray:
