You know, thinking about it, just as Robby said, this epilogue would be pretty darn good if you just ignored the last 500-odd chapters. Just assume the manga was cancelled early (say, around the end of the Gaara stuff. Maybe the Tsunade arc)
From the POV of someone who didn't read the last 500 chapters:
-Naruto is Hokage and hooks up with Hinata. Yeah, that's cool and fair enough
-Sakura and Sasuke hook up. Yeah, he was a jerk to her, but I guess he eventually softened up. I mean, it's not like he tried to kill her or anything.
-Shikamaru hooks up with Temari. Cool.
-Ino married some weird pale guy and has an ugly son. Hmm…yeah, she deserves that.
-Choji hooked up with some random black girl. Good on him.
-Gaara became Kazekage huh? Interesting
-Wait, did Neji die? Well, I'm sure he went out fighting honorably and didn't killed for some incredibly stupid reason.
And the rest of the reactions would be pretty much the same. Man it's amazing how little anything has changed in so many years.
