## Trivia [ ]

- By some interpretations of the second version of this ending, Sasuke was essentially known as the "fallen leaf" ninja when he left the village. Sakura is shown catching a falling leaf with Naruto walking away from her. It seems that Naruto is giving Sakura that leaf as a metaphor of bringing Sasuke back.
- In the last part of the ending, there is a poster on the wall at Sakura's room written "一生愛の人生よ ( Isshō ai no jinsei yo)" meaning "Always a life of love" or "A life with love throughout".
- In the first version of the ending, the animation had the characters cosplaying as dogs, with most of the female characters wearing more feminine costumes while the male characters are more full costumes.
