Cool trivia:
We online readers got the first chapter of the war, chapter 515 - The Beginning of the Great War, at November 5 of 2010. We will get the final chapter of Naruto and the war, if it comes Thursday, in November 6 of 2014.
This arc, or saga if you want to call it that way, took exactly 4 years, 25% of all of Naruto story and around the same volumes as Death Note, Yu Yu Hakusho and Dr. Slump!
No even counting the fact the war was declared before that… or that a whole bunch of the more interesting fights like the 7 swordsmen were completely off paneled!
My prediction is that for non-team 7 folk, we will get anywhere from 0-1 panels of epilogue. Smart money points closer to 0 (with fractional values referring to shared panel space).
We saw everyone's fantasies while in cacoons, and that covered a pretty broad range of characters (some of them badly) I could see something similar happening for the actual conclusion… and with SOME of those actually coming true.
An ending like that ould provide at least a tiny bit of satisfaction, maybe.
