Description
(Don't worry, there are not any spoilers in my description. Everything I say can be inferred by anyone who's familiar with the story of the Original Series).the "Finish Avatar" project week seventeen, "Free Day." Leave me a suggestion for a picture
...
No, Sasuke's not dead... yet. And, I didn't make this picture because I want that to happen (because I don't) I did it because I think it will.
He's become so dark and twisted. I just can't help but question whether even Naruto can "bring him out of the dark." Naruto has done some extraordinary things... saved countless people emotionally as well as physically... but something tells me this might just be too much to ask of him.
Anyway... I wanted to do this picture to capture the emotions of despair and regret should Sasuke's death come to pass. Only the two of them would be able to understand each other's pain... perhaps they could find solace in each-other's company. That's why I drew this picture.
...
Also, I hope the clouds came out the way I wanted them. It's supposed to either look like storm clouds moving in from the foreground towards the setting sun, or the rising sun coming up as the storm clouds pull away from the sky. It's supposed to be a symbolic "Glass half full/half empty" thing, depending on how you look at the scene and what it means for the future.
Is this just the beginning of the storm? Or is the sky finally clearing?

Naruto and all related characters belong to Shonen Jump and Masashi Kishimoto. Art belongs to me.
Thanks for looking

Sasuke can't die -_- He's to well liked and Naruto wouldn't end well if he does....NaruHina FTW!

I know... I know... I just can't see how Kishi will save him
It seems like too much weight to put on Naruto's shoulders... he's carrying it all by himself. I want to believe in him, I just want the story to move faster

OMG Same this "war" is boring =_= I think it'll happened in the war though ^^ Like Sasuke and NAruto will face off again and then take down Tobi (can't remember his real name) But half of those cames from a spoiler on this website

Yeah... it's okay to me. I like seeing the awesome battles, and Kakashi picking up the executioner's blade... I just want the story to progress.
You mean Madara?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's long filler for me. -_- I'm not big on Kakashi his battles bore me. Atleast with Asame or some one else they could die!! Kakashi there areno worries -_- But it would be awesome if he did kill him. why? Because unlike Asume's death I would care.
YES That's it

Love the shading! Very emotional scene here. Excellent job!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Wow, this is so emotional, yet so plain and simple that all I can do is smile and let a tear escape my eyes while I look at it.
I also think that Sasuke will die. I just have the feeling. I completely agree with what you said about his changed personality...Its very sad.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It is sad... all we can do is hope and believe in Naruto
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Beautifully sad; there are only two things I can think of that have any chance of redeeming Sasuke. The first would be how he'd react to seeing that Kubuto used Impure World Resurrection on Itachi and the second would whatever this power is that Itachi left in Naruto. Granted in both scenarios I can see Sasuke simply deciding to add Kabuto and Madara to his kill list along with basically everyone else. Whatever happens I just can't see this particular dynamic playing out happily, but whatever happens, even if Naruto is forced to kill Sasuke, he'll never be able to hate him.
Once again great work

Thank you
I agree. It would have to be whatever power Itachi left with Naruto... I completely forgot about that 
Gosh... that opens up so many possibilities

Even in death Itachi works against Madara...which is good because Madara needs to die, he's lived far too long and he's ruined far too many lives.

The drawing itself is great, but I never got past the first episode, so i have no idea what is going on.

You should watch it... it's a great show

I tried, I just never got into it is all. I was never really into any anime before Avatar.

Did you start the original series or Shippuden? Because Shippuden is much better
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The original series. All my friends who liked it said the opposite. Also, do you happen to like the anime Dragon Ball?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hmm.... I think you should give it another try 
Of course I like Dragon Ball and DBZ! That was my childhood
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Okay, I guess I will give it another try.
Also, I have just recently become a fan of Dragon Ball. I wasn't allowed to watch it as a little kid. But, I love it now.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I haven't seen as much of Dragon Ball, but I've collected the seasons of DBZ on DVD recently. I had the entire Buu Saga on VHS before DVD's had even come out.
You could say I enjoyed the series

I have the first two seasons on dvd. I am working on getting the rest.

Very well done. Extremely saddening...
I don't believe Sasuke will die. If he dies, Naruto can't be Hokage. He did say "How can I be Hokage if I can't even save my friend" And I think of the whole meaning of this show... "Never give up" As well as Naruto keeping promises before. He never lets people down. He's always the one to reach down and touch people's hearts. Sasuke DID react to what he said "because I'm your friend." I think he'll bring him home. I thought he was going to die, but then I decided to put my trust into Naruto. Like Sakura did, only unlike her... I'm not gonna loose faith. (Thanks a fucking lot Sai.)
I give this art a win in emotion.

Yeah... you're probably right. I'm just despairing at how bleak everything is becoming
Thanks for that, you brought up some things that I had forgotten
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I haven't been watching Naruto lately because I'm too fucking depressed by it!
I almost cried like 3 times in 200-202.
I thought Sasuke would return. Then I got really scared that he was gone for good... for a long time I prayed and prayed he'd come back, but then I remembered the things I said to you. :3
Your welcome. I think a lot of people have forgotten some of those things...
I really admire Naruto. As much as he might be called a fool for what he does... I admire his will to 'never give up'
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I think that Naruto will never be a smart shinobi like Kakashi or Shikamaru... he just doesn't have it in him, but someday in the near future he will be very wise
He's the sort of person who learns from his experiences, he has to feel those emotions, feel the pain and suffering of failure to understand. Someday, what he learns from his experiences will make him a wonderful person and ninja. I imagine he'll be a lot like Jiraiya, strong and with a huge heart... Jiraiya was a lot like him growing up

XP Probly not...
He's a bit thick...
Totally, I think he's already pretty wise... too much for his age.
I agree very much. ;v; But hopefully he will be more serious than Jiraiya. o.-

Is that the new opening? I have a hard time keeping track of the season numbers
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Okay... You're right, 8 really does symbolize all of that
I'd almost forgotten what 8 was like
