Just like the initial Naruto Gaiden anime ending, at first the new ending contains the forming of Sarada herself as a result of the deep connection between her parents.
Sasuke is represented by the purple line, while Sakura is represented by the pink line:
And then, after the fusion of these two lines, a red line is now formed, which represents Sarada:
But then, everything else from the previous ending is skipped (Sarada’s doubts about her parentage, her tears, her initial distance from Sasuke and so on). Instead, now we only see Sarada slowly and calmly walking forward:
This is really meaningful and suggests the fact that all of Sarada’s doubts and uncertainties finally disappeared. She finally understood who her biological mother is, how much both of her parents love her and how much they also love each other. They’d do anything for their little princess and all of their actions are meant to protect her. Sarada is now finally aware of all of this.
After that, we see where Sarada has been aiming to arrive all along - to her parents, who are waiting for her:
What is extremely important is that both Sasuke and Sakura are depicted exactly in the colours that represented them at the beginning: purple for Sasuke and pink for Sakura. Both Sasuke and Sakura’s clothes have a shade of their
respective colours (Sasuke’s shirt is purple, his vest is light purple and his pants are dark purple, while Sakura’s shirt and headband are depicted as dark pink). In addition, while Sakura’s hair itself is pink, Sasuke’s hair also has a purple tint. What’s more, Sarada’s shirt is red, just her representative line also is:
^ Furthermore, I would like to point out the fact that Sasuke, Sakura and Sarada are all placed exactly in the very same spot where all of their representative lines were also placed: Sasuke’s purple line was on the left, Sakura’s pink line was on the right and Sarada’s red line appeared in the middle as a result of the fusion of her parents’ lines.
Then, Sakura and Sasuke reach their hands out to Sarada. In the initial Naruto Gaiden anime ending, Sarada was the one who reached for her parents’ hands and, while she did hold Sakura’s, she unfortunately couldn’t reach Sasuke’s, fact which symbolised that she didn’t feel she was close enough to Sasuke back then even though she really wished to be. Now, the situation changed completely and Sasuke is the one who is reaching for his little daughter’s hand, just like Sakura also is:
^ Also, unlike how it was in the previous ending in which Sasuke and Sakura’s faces were never fully visible, in this ending we can finally see their expressions entirely, fact which once again shows that all of Sarada’s doubts about her family completely disappeared and that she finally understood her parents’ relationship and how much both of them love her.
Then, Sarada holds Sakura and Sasuke’s hands tightly. And what is even more important is that she is finally able to hold her parents’ hands simultaneously:
After that, we see the three Uchiha family members hand in hand, while the Uchiha Crest is pleasantly visible on both Sarada and Sakura’s backs:
^ Once again, Sasuke is on the left just like the purple line was, Sakura is on the right just like the pink line was and Sarada is in the middle just like the red line was after the fusion of the first two lines.
In the end, we see Sarada’s extremely joyful smile which is meant to show how happy she is now that she knows her family is her true family in every single sense of the word:
♡ This ending is incredibly meaningful and beautiful! ♡
Sasuke has to be on the left to hold her hand, because he has no left arm
I’m a die hard SasuSaku fan and I actually really appreciate Sakura trying to stab Sasuke in the back and Sasuke trying to chidori her. And I’m serious.
I’m not even going to talk about Sakura’s amazing development because this moment was the ultimate proof of that. It was Sakura choosing her loyalty to the village and her friends over a boy she once would have followed everywhere.
Because Sakura knew Naruto needed to live in order to achieve great things. And she knew he would never forgive himself for killing his best friend. But she didn’t want to live in a world without Sasuke either way so she chose to take this responsibility from her best friend’s hands and go down with the only boy she ever loved.
I bet it seemed fair to her.
And yet, even if she tried, really tried, she couldn’t go through it. Because damn, she still loved that boy with her whole being and deep down she wasn’t giving up on him. Not then, not ever.
And it always crushes my heart how when Sasuke was about to deliver the final blow, she didn’t try to protect herself. She didn’t even make a sound. And I think it’s because she believed she deserved that. Because it wasn’t Sasuke who betrayed her. She did it to him first.
Didn’t she promise to love him forever?
And if there’s a climax to that story, I believe this is one. It’s Sasuke learning the truth about Itachi and Uchiha Massacre, and slowly descending into madness. Because sooner or later it had to happen. That was the only way he could finally recover and find his peace in the end.
And what was Kishimoto’s way of showing us how low he had fallen? That his sanity was slipping away? It was Sasuke trying to hurt one person he always protected, one person he never wanted to hurt. Sakura.
Because Sasuke in his right mind would have never attacked her. The need to protect Sakura lies at the very core of his being and that’s something we witnessed many times in the manga, both before and after the Land of Iron incident.
Yes, I love this moment because contrary to popular belief it didn’t mean that SasuSaku was dead. It proved they were still very much alive.

Listen, friends, I have to get serious for a second here.
This is Asriel. You may have seen me post about her. Like all good pet owners, I love her. She’s my little baby girl.
And yes, she loves walks! She also loves cuddles and flowers and pets! People have fully stopped their cars on the streets to tell me how cute she is. They stop and ask if they can pet her or hold her. They ask if they can feed her a blade of grass or a clover. And I usually say yes (provided the lawn in question doesn’t use pesticides) because Asriel loves attention and she loves getting a little sun and a little exercise.
But then I always hear it. Every single time I walk her, it’s inevitable. Someone will say, “What a great idea! We should look into getting a bunny!”
STOP
Or at least pause. I’m here to tell you a few things about bunny ownership that are less glamorous than when I walk her in the park.
Rabbits poop. I know what you’re
thinking, you’re thinking, “lol my dog is a poop machine!” but you don’t
get it. If you dismiss this then you have no idea how much a bunny
poops.
This is Asriels litter box after one day. I
came home from work to this. Doesn’t look like a lot? Imagine if I forgot to clean it one day. Picture this doubled. Picture it tripled. I clean her litter box twice a day, three times if you count the one in her sleeping pen. It is required that I do this, or else she will get sick, and so will people who come into my apartment. And on that note
Just because MY bunny is trained, doesn’t mean YOUR bunny can be trained. Not
all rabbits will poop or pee in the litter box. Not all rabbits walk on
a leash. Not all rabbits want to cuddle. Not all rabbits want to be
picked up. You didn’t raise Asriel, and you didn’t see me train her. So you don’t know that I got her at a mere month old (the older a rabbit is, the harder they are to train). You didn’t see me follow her around the apartment for weeks with rubber gloves on. You didn’t see me spray her with a water bottle for trying to eat the carpet. You didn’t see me observe her behavior as carefully as possible so as to conform to her behavior, rather than expecting to train her in the same manner as a cat or a dog.
Rabbits have very specific diets. This isn’t like most pets where you can buy a specific brand of food and leave it at that. Asriel requires a harmonious mix of hay, pellets, vegetables, and fresh greens to keep her healthy and strong. The diets will vary depending on the individual rabbit and breed. ALL rabbits require CONSTANT access to hay for fiber and dental health. Pellets and vegetables (especially carrots, because they are high in sugar) should be given in limited amounts. Going against this diet is DANGEROUS. Digestion problems are very real in rabbits. Fun fact - did you know a rabbit can’t vomit? They have no way of expelling toxic substances aside from allowing their body to (at least attempt to) digest it.
Rabbits eat and chew on everything. This is not a habit you will break them of. It is in their nature. They see a cord hanging from the wall and it looks just like a delicious blade of grass to them. I have heard of rabbits eating entire textbooks, clothes, toys, cords, plastic, chewing on metal. They do not know how to differentiate between your favorite necklace and a tasty piece of celery.
Rabbits are EXPENSIVE. Asriel has to go to a specialized vet who has his office set up out of town. We have to take a cab to get there because no bus lines run there. That’s a $50 cab ride in addition to the $300 vet bill. Having her spayed alone was $350.
Vet visits are NOT optional Just because America doesn’t have any laws requiring rabbits be vaccinated or spayed/neutered, doesn’t mean you can neglect the healthcare of your rabbit. Regular veterinary visits are necessary to detect small issues before they become big ones. You need to seek out a vet who specializes in rabbit care and rabbit surgery. Spaying or neutering your rabbit will prevent hormone-driven behaviors and uterine cancer in female rabbits.
Rabbits need lots of space Bunnies have powerful hind legs that need to stretch, hop, jump, and run. A bunny trapped in a cage all day not only risks stress (which reduces your rabbit’s lifespan), but also depression and even muscular dystrophy. They need exercise and lots of freedom.
Rabbits bite and scratch Even Asriel does. As used as she is to being handled, when she wants down, she’ll let you know quick. They have sharp teeth and will nip if you do something they don’t like. Hell, some rabbits are cranky and will nip for no reason. Not all rabbits like to be handled. Just because Asriel cuddles under your chin doesn’t mean every rabbit will.
“But Typhon!” You may be saying, “Why even keep a rabbit if it’s so much work? Don’t you love your rabbit?”
YES! Asriel is the sweetest bunny and I am the luckiest bunny owner to have her. Dogs and cats are lots of work too, and nobody would argue that it isn’t worth keeping one.
But here’s the thing …
Every year, thousands of rabbits are adopted or purchased as Easter presents.
Every year, thousands of rabbits are abandoned, set free (a death sentence for domestic rabbits), or die because the people who receive them as presents do not know how to care for them.
It breaks my little bunny-loving heart. These are not bad people. I’m sure they wanted the best for their bunny. I’m sure they tried their best and just didn’t expect the commitment, or didn’t know any better.
Adopting a bunny means a commitment of 10 or more years. It is a financial and emotional commitment, and one that you should not take on without some SERIOUS research and preparation. I have sunk thousands of dollars into the care of my bunny, and while I cannot say enough that it is worth every penny, I bought her knowing what I was getting myself into.
So please, please, please say it with me …
Bunnies are not good Easter presents
Bunnies are not good Easter presents
BUNNIES ARE NOT GOOD EASTER PRESENTS
BUNNIES ARE NOT GOOD EATER PRESENTS
DO NOT BUY A CHILD A BUNNY FOR EASTER
DO NOT BUY ANYONE A BUNNY FOR EASTER UNLESS THEY ARE FULLY PREPARED TO CARE FOR IT
If you’ve read all of this and you still think you’d like a bunny - great! Goodness knows the shelters will be full of them a few weeks after Easter. I recommend giving https://rabbit.org/ a visit, and perhaps picking up a copy of The Rabbit Handbook by Karen Gendron. You should also do some research on veterinary care in your area, as well as calling up local pet stores to make sure they carry the supplies you’ll need to care for your rabbit. Make sure to get the supplies BEFORE you get the rabbit. No bunny should come home and not have a pen to sleep in.
Bunnies are great pets. They have a wide range of personalities just like cats and dogs. They can be shy, friendly, playful, skittish, cuddly, or nippy. All rabbits are good rabbits. I just beg of you, this Easter season, to remember that they are living creatures. They need constant care and attention, and while it’s well worth the effort, it’s not something to take lightly.
Asriel and I thank you for listening.
Living animals are not “lessons” for your children. It’s not their job to teach your child responsibility. They deserve a happy, fulfilled life with the best of care.
