What I don't understand is that everything seems to indicate that Kishimoto is getting tired of the series with his recent rushing of things. Perhaps he just has to because of deadlines with the movie and what not. But if he's truly sick of dealing with Naruto and wants to concentrate other things/projects, than this leads me to believe the worst. Naruto 'GT' will become a thing. Meaning, there will be a new series, possibly anime only. And...just like with Toriyama and Dragon Ball, someone else will take it over because he didn't own the exclusive rights to the series and keep making crap based on it. Ultimately Shueisha is a huge business and Naruto is currently its cash cow, and they will want to keep the funds rolling. This means if they lose their current demographic, they won't care so long as there is a new one, and its bigger.
