No need to panic, let's do the math.

[SageOfTheTenPaths]

Kishi is only 40
+
Writing for 15 years
+
Rushing manga
=
He's dead tired and needs a rest.

Conclusion, after a long rest the Naruto manga universe will continue. Probably around 2015/2016. With the introduction of a mini-series first, then a full blown part 3. Like i said, Kishi is only in his 40s, still young.
Naruto is his baby, he wont leave it alone that easy.

Trust me on this, im almost always right

I hope so. A year off might do him wonders.

Agree, a year break will give him hunger again and new ideas

I'm sure the movie will also bring a light to a lot pairings and other stuff that was missed.

Jepp thats true, think it will wrap alot of things up.

 

[ColdSummer]

Agreed, OP! Even if a full blown part 3 isn't made, I think we'll at least see various things here and there after the mini-series.

Yeah, movies and mini-series are bound to happen anyway for years and years.

Yeah let the naruto series become the new Star Wars I story that never ends even though it should. Cause all story's that continue to go on years after an end has been established for it never get old,band,uninteresting or never become bad.

Naruto has been marketed the hell out of and has gone on long enough it does not need to continue a good story does not go on for years and years and years they say what the have to say and don't babble on. They know when to end. You can't keep your audiences attention forever things that go on too long become boring and bland eventually.

Nah Kishi is a one hit writer and not a very good one at it. That Mario garbage tells more than enough about the odds of him inventing another manga so you are right in that Naruto is his one and only thing and its finished. It will be just like with Akira Toriyama after Dragon-Ball was finished: at best there will be some GT level filler after this but its over as far as real content is concerned.

Naruto is quickly becoming the new DBZ in the sense that it's fan base overrated the hell put of it and think race the greatest manga of its time.
It just lien Dbz will eventually be outshined in popularity/and sales by another manga and I can't wait when that day comes cause I can't take anymore of these fans overrating Naruto.

 

[Ansatsuken]

Cool math.

 

[SageOro]

Yea, he said he just need to take a break to have time for his kids.

 

[TrollKing]

A manga without strong dojutsu will be aweful

Look at that, i was right

 

[Trúth]

Look at that, i was right

Congrats man.

 

[Aznkidd]

Look at that, i was right

We all manga lovers know this already, just some peep doesnt satisfied with the story and say it ended at 700.

 

[SageOfTheTenPaths]

Congrats man.
