Is Masashi Kishimoto tired of writing Naruto?

Lately, Naruto has been taking a few more breaks than usual. There will once again be no Naruto chapter this week. Now, before I'm yelled at for being ungrateful, let me explain that I am absolutely understanding of this. After writing Naruto for 10+ years, I'm sure Mr. Kishimoto may be getting bored of the story. I am not asking this question to complain or do anything even remotely like complaining. I just want to know: is Mr. Kishimoto tired of writing Naruto? Where and when did you find your information?





Thank you for your responses.|||I don't know if there's a legit article where it says Kishimoto is tired of Naruto but I'm sure he is tired of it. I mean I'm sure since its so popular he feels obligated to get a new chapter out every week (hes surely in contract too) but I'm sure he runs out of ideas and it gets tiring after a while but due to everyone wanting a new episode he must work. Or he might have problems since he's trying to close Naruto and he doesn't know how to do so without having everyone hate him, or the major part of people hatting him since they didn't like the ending or something.





So yes hes tired|||I'm sorry, I don't have any factual information in regards to it, but it does seem he must be getting tired of it. It's not like the Simpsons, where the episodes have their own storyline, but rather it's just one big, loopholed, shuriken throwing storyline. The thing is that you can only have so many fillers before it just gets ridiculous. It's not that these new enemies are "important to the story line," because you can say that about any character, but rather they can help you further the storyline for another couple of chapters.





Ask yourself this- How many fricken justu's can Kishimoto make?


How many can he just staple on to old characters?





I don't know if it's writers block as much as it is just a squeezed out story. Like how many guitar hero's Activision made.|||Is he tired of it Sure he porlly is does that mean he's not gonna write it? I actually think he already has the enitire series done and in ink and paper in my opinion cuz u can't go that far just to stop doing it the break he had was when he made Shippuuden that's when he took his break. and it not just Masashi Kishimoto who does naruto he has people to help him also he just also bringing out his new manga he made too that's all|||Well, Naruto is a cash generator for Kishimoto... Before it, I believe he was relatively broke. Now, he stacks paper to the ceiling and rides on 24 inch chome. But I think it's ending soon... As much as I love this anime, I do find it just as important that it ends with some dignity (unlike Pokemon). I'm sure he also cares enough to end it on a good note.|||Maybe he has one of those writers block - where you just can't think of anything to write next - and decided to take a break? I mean geez he's been writing naruto for over 10 years (?) it's normal to take breaks once and a while (:|||I dont think Naruto is going to end...I don't want it to either because I like watching Naruto! I am a BIG fan of that anime!


I think he is taking a break because he cant think of what to write next


~hope I helped :)|||I believe naruto will be ending soon. I can't give a source but there has been talk saying it'll end in awhile.





Then again this has been said for two years now.|||FINALLY! It's going to end
