Title.

Like seriously what we got was pretty much confirmed and there was no shocking
element in it. It was a happy ending typical of a shounen manga. So what the heck
was the shocking end? When it was first mentioned i thought that it would be the
reveal of toneri or the rabbit bijuu which will be resolved in the movie. But we got
nothing.

Was the mentioning of "the shocking end" just a way to keep the readers attached
to the manga till its end?

discuss.

Hmmm, nice recollection.
well I was shocked on how Sasuke was dealt with.
And their arm was really a shocker.


Arent you shocked with choji and karui's affair, let alone their daughter?

it would be pretty lame if kishimoto meant this by the shocking end. I was expecting a cliffhanger

Yeah lame for a shocker.
But their fight's conclusion was really a shocker.
How Sasuke was won over and their arms.

But not the shocker I really was expecting

Haven't seen naruto's Hokage ceremony I mean wouldn't that be useful to the fans who have waited all this time?

Haven't seen naruto's reaction to seeing his head on mount kage - wasn't that the symbol / goal he always wanted?

That's the shock factor for me. Such a rushed ending

The new generation of Konoha and the progression of technology are my guesses.

Anko got fat.
Pairings with no real development which will be retcon'd in the last.
The kids looks, and kids themselves.
Iruka's rapid age.

The shocking end is ninja system is slowly crumbling...Did you see large buildings around leaf village ? The fire country support city not villages with ninjas.

Not sure how that image of Sasuke and Naruto with their dominant arms destroyed wasn't shocking.

Or Sasuke's tear. Or admitting he lost.

These are clearly the scenes Kishi planned for a long time. They were shocking to me.

no it was not shocking. sasuke coming back was foreshadowed since the last 400 chapters. What would have been shocking would be if he left without any redemption

The shocking resemblance between Boruto and the 7th, or maybe that Choji found a wife XD

P.S.: idk, probably it was just one of the thousands li(n)es that SJ used to get the fans hyped...

I believe the shocker was their arms being blown off.

The kind of shock you were expecting could be felt only if you disconnected your PC plug and put your finger in the socket.
