1. Did it live up to your expectations? Nope

2. What was your favorite/least favorite moments? Favorite moments, anything that was not one of the following, flashback, explosion, rasengan, chidori, susano'o, talk/dr. phil no jutsu. So, I guess in the end, about 8 panels of ACTUAL fighting like men.

3. What about the fight made it great/okay/terrible? great - that its over. Ok - that there was actual fighting. Terrible - 'Now I'll show you my true form!' trope.

4. How has the pacing and length affected your view on the fight? Each chapter that passed was a fight, I had less and less hope of character development and story being rectified/clarified/justified/endified.

5. Judge the action- as a fight itself, what did you think about it? It was Goku/Gohan's final clash with (enter DBZ villain of your choice).

6. Judge the emotional impact- how did Naruto and Sasuke's interactions effect you? It was kind of lame to find out in the end that Sasuke was being a dick just because he envied Naruto or found him "cool" in any way. Imagine how much senseless violence, destroyed nature, faceless ninja extras/stuntmen, and villages could have been saved over the course of this story if people just said what they honestly felt BEFORE destroying everything and blowing each other's arms off.

7. On a scale from 1-10, how would you rate this fight as a whole? 1. It was probably one of if not the worst fight in the series. I truly and sincerely mean that. But it was too be expected after this 3 year build up of a "ninja" war where about 5% of the soldiers are WMDs faffing about altering the landscape with super powerful HUGE flashy "ninja" moves. To give you an idea of a better fight, I'd have said Zabuza vs. Kakashi. You can even do the "BIG" fights ok too if you don't do them over the top, i.e. Naruto/Bunta vs. Gaara/Shukaku or Hiruzen vs. Orochimaru and the cadaver crew.

8. Leave whatever else you want to say about the final battle of the Naruto series!

I am glad its over. I don't mean that in a negative way either. My favorite series have always been ones that are short and sweet. They tend to just have enough of everything. Super long anime/manga tend to milk stuff for ¥¥¥/$$$ and they suffer. While I never read it, I've heard several people I've talked to say that Bleach should have ended at x point, Inuyasha should have ended after Kikyo died/ Naraku was "defeated", and that One piece is just a joke.

I personally felt it could have ended on a great note after the Pain arc.

Naruto can exit the stage FAR FAR more gracefully than many of its peers, and THAT is saying a lot.

Poor forth great ninja war arc, it is just the most badly treated arc in the hole series.

Other than that this the funniest comment i've ever heard(Not against your opinion, Im very mixed with it.

On two hands, the energy, of all that happened on that entire battle, gets a clapped of a giant T-Rex, but at the same time, and don't get me wrong Naruto vs Sasuke maybe the most hyped rivalry in history, but this fight wasn't really all that hyped up to be, which is very strange, a rivalry more hyped than anything else has the most unhyped fight ever in history for a rivalry.

And i hope in my story that is currently being written, i greatly hope you like the rivarly of what i shall bring towards to viewers, cause it's a dark one.

Really where forth great shinbi war arc take a hard drive was that one area.

It was like as if i was playing Pokemon Gold and Silver.

all the 7 beasts-Elite 1

Juubi-Elite 2

Obito(Ten tails)-Elite 3

Madara(Ten Tails)-Elite 4

Kaguya Ootsutsuki-Champion

Sasuke-Pokemon master/Red

That's too me what it was, no breaks, which is awesome, but outrageously long!

Heck Frieza from Dragon ball didn't even take this long, Cell or even the Spongbog squarepants starfish Patrick(If you know whom i really mean) never went this far.

And you know what's really hard to believe from this?

Is that it's all one night! On one area, one battle, just one battle!

Sure there were alot of fights, but it's just one battle, that took amazingly long, to lengths that make me feel like Kishimoto slapped me on the face

2 years of reading Naruto, all on one area!

I can't believe it, that's amazing, outstandingly great and awful at the same time!

Great and bad job Kishimoto, great and bad.

Your the George Lucas of the Anime industry.

And great fight between Naruto vs Sasuke.
