So as some of you may have heard in my Random Fandom update and also my post on my wall, I was crying over the fact that Naruto Shippuden has finally come to a close...

- Moment of reverential silence... 😞-

So here's what I wanted to get into.

I absolutely loved this final episode for so many reasons. One of the main reasons being: this is the episode that revealed all the couples and that they have all gone canon. ALL OF THEM. For example...

The obvious one.

Look at all this hand-holding. 😂

Then there's THIS one.

Omg even CHOJI's got his true love! 😂 (this would literally be all of us, tbh...)

Then finally we've got the whole reason for this series of episodes.

OMG HINATA IS SO PRETTY!!!! 😍😍😍😍

Wait... But some of you are asking... "Where's the ship that is literally the whole point of this book?" or "All this hand-holding, ShikaTema, InoSai, and NaruHina, all holding hands. We're missing someone!"

Oh, are you thinking of...

SasuSaku, perhaps?

Well... It's a bit complicated...

Nows the time when you all give up on SasuSaku. I'm sorry. It's never happening. He doesn't even show up, he can't even be there for the woman he "loves"... If he loved her so much, why didn't he go back for Naruto's wedding to be with her? Tsk. He really doesn't love her, he won't even send her a note... Or even his congratulations to Naruto and Hinata... Pfft... Some love. SasuSaku will never go canon... It's over.

...

What?

Then what's the whole point of this? Why in THIS book? Because I have nowhere else to post these.

...

And also because THIS happened.

Does this birdy look familiar? 😜

Omg he's SMILING. The note saying "Congratulations" is clearly for Naruto and Hinata. But notice he could've sent it to anyone. In any event, he would've sent it to Kakashi. He could've had his hawk drop the note on the gift table. But no. He sent his bird directly to Sakura, meaning.... Maybe it wasn't for Naruto and Hinata? This took place the same week or even the same day as Sakura's birthday, and she'd just turned 20, I believe. So even on Naruto and Hinata's day, he's the one to remember that it's her day, too. And as you could see, when the camera pans on the path, from the shinobi's feet up to his face, Sasuke is smiling, knowing that she got the note. This is another way they both know their love is connected.

Everyone in this episode is holding hands with their significant other. Sakura holding the hawk, I think, is like representing the two of them, Sasuke and Sakura, holding hands.
