I don't know if I have a favorite moment (I really enjoyed the canon portion of Part I and some of the filler), but as for the series ending I personally think Sasuke MAY die somehow. If you think about his character there is no way he can turn around like Obito did. It's true Itachi, Orochimaru and Obito manipulated Sasuke, but after talking with Hashirama and knowing the absolute truth behind everything he is freely making his own path and decisions. So even if Naruto defeats him I do not think he would give up on his goals so I think he might as well die, but who knows. Maybe he will lose all of his powers and be imprisoned somehow. It's really hard to predict how this fight will end (other than Naruto likely winning because he is the main character). I think 5 more chapters is WAY too short for the fight and ending of the series. It should be as long as the first fight at the Valley of The End, but I suppose the first fight was longer because they talked more. Anyway the only other loose end is releasing everyone from the IT and the tailed beasts from Chibaku Tensei. I wanted Naruto and Hinata to get together, but we will see as there was only so much development there (for crying out loud she confessed her love for him!). I suppose the series may end with a type of time skip or with every loose end being tied up like at the end of Avatar: The Last Airbender.
