Just let us know where you are and we'll send help for the dude holding the gun to your head forcing you to watch it.

Then the rest of us can get back to enjoying more of a show we love.

Eh I kinda like this new arc, though we'll see how the execute it, as the last such spinoff novel adaptation, while better than their original filler, was somewhat lacking in execution. I'm hoping they will finish the story off after these but I don't know.

I did some arithmatic and if each of these lasts a month, that means each will be 4 episodes, which comes to 12 including the most recent one, which means these arcs will end at episode 495, which gives them 5 episodes till the big 500. Plenty of time to end the series by then. Which means my crazy half in jest theory from a while ago that they were planning on ending on episode 500 might actually come true Shocked

Edit: It took a half an hour of searching but I found it

They might be prepping for the show's 10th anniversary that month for the TV canon finale by doing these gaiden episodes.

Finally I can actually see Sakura novel available by Viz.

Although I still need to wait to see Sasuke's novel next year. Well the anime will have to do for now.

I actually wish I was in Infinite Tsukuyomi because I would be dreaming the series ended with NaruSaku. Kishi could've developed NaruHina a lot better in the manga.

Though I second your comment (except I would be dreaming I'm a rich and famous writer and movie director that has written a best-selling adult novel version of Naruto), let's not start a shipping war.

Given they keep milking that cow, I wouldn't be surprised if they joined this alternative universe crowd (DC, Marvel, Star Trek, Doctor Who, Dragonball (well Dragonball Crossovers), etc) that they do just that with "what if" novels.

In terms of the anime im only really interested in seeing a certain filler episode or episodes and theres no guarantee they'll even do it but ima stay vigilant just in case they do.

Plenty of fan fiction out there so you could always pretend.

That won't happen as they still have 4 more hiden novels another novel plus the Mitsuki one shot the 10 chapters of the Sarada focused manga plus TV episode adaptions of the LAST film then the Brouto manga adaption.

"Shikamaru Hiden" was a great read, with a focus on characters I like a lot, so I am really looking forward to that.
The rest... I will see.

Sadly the latest episode was rather hilarious... unintentionally so. I hope it picks up over time and gets the pacing straight.

That's what I like about fanfics: they can be used to potentially fix what fans deemed went wrong with endings.
