Am I the only one who thinks that Kishi might be setting the stage for a spin-off?

[Sennin of Logic]

It's pretty much a fact that the Naruto manga's ending, so this rules out a part 3. However, there are some things implying that the story will be continued.

Take this for instance.

Hagoromo is an "Alien" although implied to be somewhat different from that.

Kaguya came from "A faraway land."

Then we're introduced to alternate dimensions.

OK, I think that this may be where Kaguya came from. That might be her home dimension. Regardless, there's quite a bit of mystery of where she came from.


And then there's this.

"Soldiers." May I remind you that Infinite Tsukyomi is a genjutsu casted on the entire planet?

So......... Who's Kaguya supposedly fighting? It only makes sense that there's something else out there that we have not seen in the Naruto series.


Considering the manga's ending, why add such a big mystery right at its end? It's supposed to end this year! Why introduce an entirely new possible direction?


There's only one rational conclusion. Kishimoto's ending this manga, but at the same time, leaving it open-ended for a spin-off series some other time after giving himself a break from Naruto. Kind of like DBZ was a spin-off of Dragon Ball.


What do you guys make of this?

I know he planned to originally, or had at least played with the idea.

 

[Callypigia]

I'd like a spin off with Sakura, Hinata, and Shizune sharing a NY apartment and hanging out at a coffee shop with their friends Kiba and Shino, who live across the hall.

 

[Obítō1]

Agree With You Great Find

 

[Trúth]

This is pretty much obvious. Of course he could just stretch the series out with all this space bs.

 

[Conspirator.]

Indeed. I agree with what you are saying.

You just described what hell is like. Lol jk

 

[NineSNS]

I think Kishi wants to move on to other projects.

 

[Shadow Phantasm]

It's possible since he's putting in all these plot twists right near the end.
