What's left of Naruto ends by August

[thgt89]

We know the actually manga ended last November and some consider it the end of the series. Still there are more things that come out this year. We have the new Bolt manga mini series which is written by Kishi, we have the 6 novels, and the new Bolt movie coming out this August. Most likely the Bolt mini series will start by April and will last about a volume or 10 chapters or so. I feel he will write it like the manga and this mini series probably ends by July which would be enough for about 10 chapters. Then there would be about a month or so of time for the mini series to end before the movie just like the Naruto manga and the last movie. The movie is also being influenced of Kishi's input. Then the last of the 6 novels ends in August which itself has an unknown amount of Kishi's input even if it isn't written by him. After that the series at least as far as Kishi's input should be done since he said he would start work on a new series after the summer. The only thing left then would be the anime which itself could be just about done depending on the amount of filler with the only question then being how much filler they would add after the end of the series. At least as far as Kishi's involvement is concerned it should be over by August but that is obviously always subject to change.

Fine by me. No use milking it even further.

Yay for cash milking!

The marketing franchise is going to drain the life out of the series. Personally I hope they either finish it off where the manga ended or at the very least the continue after 699 with decent quality [plot] to fill the gaps.
