*takes deep breath*

Well, this is it.

The moment we've all been waiting for.

It all happens in Naruto Retsuden.

*Warning AGAIN for Retsuden spoilerzzzz*

This adorable Team 7 ending and adorable little Uchiha family moment.

But this isn't even it.

No, I thought the SasuSaku would end at Sasuke Retsuden.

Kishimoto just HAD to give us more. 😭💙

My heart couldn't handle all this, not to mention....

Let me just have you guys read this roughly translated snippet.

It all happens on what seems to be a motorbike. Team 7 is riding a bike, Sakura at the front, Naruto right behind her, and Sasuke in the back. Sasuke's in the back putting his chakra into making the bike move fast and Sakura's at the front steering since she's got the best chakra control out of the three of them. Naruto's... Naruto's just there. 😂 MORAL SUPPORT. There we go.

(This is all canon, may I remind you.)

They're trying to get to a satellite I think, I'm not entirely sure what happens or what they're trying to do. But Sasuke, being Sasuke, comes up with a pretty reckless plan that, I think, involves him stabbing his sword into his leg. He kinda briefly mentions this but Naruto doesn't understand. SOMEONE ELSE does, tho. Remember the whole Sasuke-Sakura-switch-places moment in Naruto Gaiden when Sasuke and Sakura were fighting Shin? Yeah, their bond-connection intuition where they just know what the other's thinking and they understand with a single gesture. (I absolutely love this about their relationship...)

THEN SUDDENLY.....

IT. HAPPENED.

GUYS.

WE GOT.

OUR VERY.

FIRST.

CANON.

SASUSAKU KISS.

I'm not even okay anymore. I've died and.... Well, I'm still dead, but GUYS.

I find it slightly hilarious how big of a third wheel Naruto is in this moment. And it's canon, too. CANON. I've never been so so happy.

"We've gone this far without a single public kiss from our ship". And y'all, the wait is over.

It happened.

And dudes, the moment this gets animated, I'm going to flip out and actually die.

If the novels get animated and THIS doesn't happen, well.... Someone else is going to die.....

JKKKKKK for real, tho...

Here's the main rundown of the novel:

And just like that, folks, I close my TED talk for the evening and open the floor up for comments, concerns, and FANGIRL SQUEALS come fangirl with me y'all, it's most certainly a time to celebrate.

Because THIS. ACTUALLY. HAPPENED.

IT DIDN'T HAVE TO, BUT IT DID.

AND THANK GOODNESS IT DID.

BECAUSE I CAN NOW REST IN PEACE.

KNOWING THAT A SASUSAKU KISS EXISTS IN THIS WORLD.
