Above everything, remember there's a movie planned for August 2004. Meaning that at least by August we will still have the anime around. And I'm sure there'll be one more movie at least.

&#39;Sides, as people have said already, the manga is unfinished and showing no signs of slowing down. Seriously, there are some aspects like <span style='color:#D6DBE0'>Kakashi&#39;s life and Yondaime and Orochimaru&#39;s real real intentions</span> for instance in which us manga readers know as much as you anime watchers do. Which is to say, not really a lot.

So nope, Naruto is definitely not stopping any time soon.
