I am fairly certain that Sakura was originaly meant to be paired with Naruto and I think Kishi even said so a long time ago. Some where along the line of Hinata confessing and dying near twice along with everyone hating Sakura pretty much made Kishi straight up gave up on the Naruto and Sakura. Since if Naruto and Sakura would pair up at the end even after all of Hinata sacrifice, it would be pretty ugh....hard to explain to the fan how Naruto can be so shallow and not accept Hinata feeling after all she did for him. It is very VERY rare for any anime/manga for the main heroine to not get paired with the main character and if they don't get paired than the only other route is harem route. Most sources will point out that Sakura is the main heroine considering she get 95% more screen time than Hinata until finally Shippuden hit and Hinata got a tiny bit more screen time.

I would of prefer Sakura being alone given up on love and just be a medical nin similar to what Tsunade did. Same with sasuke just roaming the world.
I may not be the best, but i will be some day...

that was exactly how i pictured the ending. seeing how sasuke even end up with anyone seemed just weird to me. i thought his character development was seemingly leading him to end up as a "dark knight" kind of anti-hero having no ties to the ninja world and become a traveling vagrant seeking his ideals.

Yeah, Sasuke and Sakura future is the only thing i didn't liked O_O
It feels so stupid, "he married Sakura had a kid and is happy forever" really? Your preference is tha same as mine, Sasuke "overcoming loneliness", his happy ending, could be his come back to Konoha to visit his home or something like that, but a normal life with Naruto as hokage feels so strange.
Its different for Naruto, becoming a Hokage with family and kids is expected, but also perfect.
"Sakura married Sasuke and became a house wife", damn that brings me to tears, sad ones.
In PvZ the zerg can make the situation spire out of control but protoss can adept to the situation.

You're forgetting one : sasuke giving up on roaming the world, settle with sakura, have a child, living with sakura is unbearable, child has useless eyes, realizes his life is boring, leave and finally proceed to become a paranoiac hobo afraid of trees.

Life lesson on marriage indeed.

Well, nowhere in the chapters it says that he settled, as far as we know that could have been just a one time thing.

How about someone we've not encountered in the manga? She's allowed to meet new guys. There's thousands of unnamed mooks running around.

She's Sakura's adoptive daughter. Karin died in childbirth.

Yes.

Last page said there will be a new "short" manga that will follow the next generation. There will also exist some short stories about known ninjas. The first one will be about Kakashi and will be written by some dude that also wrote some Naruto movies.

Oh lord. I was feeling a wee bit emotional reading that last page, like I had aged myself; or at least, how much of my life has passed since I first started reading. I never wanted it to end.

But, please, not this. I am down with Kakashi stories, those have been dope, but if it's being written by the dude behind the Naruto movies... Also short stories about known ninjas... -_-; Just let it finally be over already. It's the end of an era.

The alien winning would actually have been a fairly good ending, relatively. Happy endings are overrated.

Behind some Naruto movies. Since i didn't watch any naruto movie, I don't know if the movies he wrote are worth anything.

Kaguya? She was the most boring villain ever. Madara winning would've been better. An ambiguous ending, showing everyone happy in the IT and then Sasuke or someone else feeling something was off. But then again, this was a shounen so a happy ending was inevitable.
