Naruto x700

One part of my childhood has ended with the last chapter of Naruto T-T

I was never a die-hard fan of the series, but I really like the funny elements in the earlier parts of the story so I followed it through these years. From watching the anime to reading the manga simply because it's faster to read the manga. The anime was gooooood. Other than being funny, there were many touching moments also e.g. when Asura (I think) died and Jiraiya too. Oh and the OST of course, it was a large part of the anime. When I moved over to reading the anime, it was one chapter every Wednesday/Thursday and just like that, almost 10 years has passed since I first got to know about Naruto. To be honest I kinda lost the story in between because there were way too many new characters, but I kept reading to know the ending.

The last chapter was a glimpse into the future, with all the main characters grown up with kids. It was kinda interesting because some of the couples seemed to have been put together rather forcibly hahaha. Like there hadn't been much interaction between this two characters in the story, but they ended up getting married with children LOL. Everyone's like wth in the forums I went to hahaha.

So yeah, Naruto has officially ended (okay there's an upcoming movie...). 15 years of work by Kishimoto-sensei. *applause* This brings a closure to a significant part of my childhood. It feels kinda weird right now, really. I was looking forward to the manga ending because I was really quite lost with the story, but now that it has ended, I suddenly feel sad and empty.

Next will be Bleach haha. I think I will feel even more sad when it ends because I like it more than Naruto. Most people would say Naruto is better (which I agree because Bleach is draggy and has way too many fillers especially in the anime), I feel more attached to Bleach? Maybe because I used to spam the opening and ending songs haha. I'm looking forward to the end of the series, but I know I'll feel even more sad than now when that happens :(
