And as such, he neither had the time, nor energy, to put everything he thought about the characters, i.e their back and side stories, in the form of a manga, which is infinitely more difficult to draw that simply write in story form.

Its impossible that any if the novels were written without at least an overview by Kishi. You say that like we don't know this. Don't make us out to be wrongfully complaining. The manga ended nearly a year and a half ago. The anime could've followed suit within 6 months, and had OVA's for the sake of the novels. This series has been milked to the point that it's utter is pruned. We want canon. No one's being demanding of Kishi. We're being demanding of the studio. We want Kishimoto product, not everything but. They don't want to let go and finish the series, and the last year has done nothing for "Naruto" but tarnish much of its legacy. All of the side product can wait. The games, and all current Naruto product slated to come out is past the ending of the anime, so the longer they hold it off, the more anime-onlys find out about the ending and move on before it actually gets here.
