What if Naruto never became Hokage?

[lndra]

That's actually an interesting conclusion. And instead of Gaiden we get to see the things Naruto learned in his journey; with a new perspective and a new mindset –at least it would be way better than a nonsensical mommy drama. U_U

Exactly.

The whole next gen crap is so pointless. The series isn't even entertaining at face value to me anymore; No adventures, no fun, no comedy, no humor, plot mostly lacks tension, relationships lack interaction and substance, world building lacks imagination, characterization and dynamics lack charm and diversity. Not to mention Kishimoto sucks as a politician and philosopher, big time. In all honesty? I think Kishimoto is well-aware that his target audience compose mostly of teenagers, thus, making his propaganda look more sympathetic and forgiving. Go Nagai's Devilman has the same target audience as Naruto. Hunter x Hunter has the exact same audience. But unlike Kishimoto, Go Nagai and Yoshihiro Togashi did actually succeed in talking about grey morality, genocide, family obligations, political corruption, mafia, historical juxtaposition, human hypocrisy and cruelty.

Kishi already shjt on his fan with the "Gaiden filler" already, so this will not shock me..

If Naruto never became Hokage every one of his talk no jutsue speeches would have been for nothing. Making the series completly pointless. Kinda reminds me of how the Gaiden turned out.

Kishi already got death threats for pairing Sasuke & Sakura and Naruto & Hinata. He might have actually been killed if this had been the ending!!!!

Also, if this were the ending, the world would probably still be rife with warfare, the 5 villages returned to their states of despising each other. Naruto maintained the peace imo.

Screwing somebody's life for 15 years +/- is a serious crime........... Now screwing the whole community for 15 years +/- is a death sentence

Kishi when to a lot of work to have Naruto overcome the odds in life to deny Naruto the core of His believes that He can be Hokage and have a Woman that loved Him from the start when so many others either ignore Him or hated the idea of Him looking for their affections.

This ending sounds realistic hence why people are hating on it
