I’m surprised they didn’t do Gaara instead for Shoto… Is this article maybe a lil accurate or misleading?
I could be thinking too hard again… I thought Gaara was much similar to Shoto than Neji Hyuga is. Dunno if Shoto is like, a prime candidate to be killed off sometime in the future or not at all…

Also wtf is it with Naruto and death? I’m seeing so many speculations about so many older characters dying permanently by the end (like Gaara, Sasuke, Naruto, etc) Is it really that likely or an exaggeration?
