Amazing! Just amazing!

I'm happy and sad at same time after concluding the series.

FYI: The gap between anime and manga is 46 chapters away. Depending on how the studio animating 1/1& half/2 chapters per episode, the anime is gonna finished in late 2015 or early 2016. In other words,the anime will conclude in episode 430 at best.

There was also a spoiler[One Piece skull emblem painted on the forehead of Naruto's stone effigy at the end of the last chapter.

Apparently, his son's a real fan.]

Awww geez this was so sweet, it gave me goosebumps on top of tears, it was just so amazing! For some reason this is so incredibly sad,, but at the same time it's so absolutely beautiful. I feel emotional just reading this, and I'm not even up to date with Naruto. Maybe I'm just a big softie when it comes to sentimental stuff like this...

Yup.

From the article:

Quote:
Finally, the very last page of the Naruto manga itself has a call-back to One Piece, in the form of a graffiti with Luffy's symbol.

It's more likely it'll conclude in March or April. They're going at an average of 2 chapters an episode presently with no signs of slowing down.

It's nice seeing mutual respect between different manga artists. Makes you feel a little warm and fuzzy inside.

Really so cool how Oda-sensei and Kishimoto-sensei respect each others work, you can really tell by them doing tributes to each other on their latest chapter. I wonder if they are good friends IRL?

But I can bet you they will be facepalming when they see fans hating on One Piece/Naruto when they actually respect each others work.

More like a 3-to-1 chapters-to-episode adaptation ratio, with some episodes going through as much as 5 chapters. A Shippuden finale around late March is more likely

Also, I don't know if it was stated here, but NARUTO= NA(mi,) RU(ffy,) and TO(ny Tony Chopper.) The 3 characters on the page make out his name.
