Also: A humorous comic from a passionate fan about the send-off
This week's 50th issue of Shueisha's Shonen Jump magazine is set to be a legendary issue, as it houses the final two chapters of Masashi Kishimoto's Naruto manga. Along with Eiichiro Oda's hidden message in the title page of his One Piece manga, all of the manga creators featured in the issue wrote messages in the author's comments section:
Yusei Matsui (Ansatsu Kyōshitsu) - It's an honor to be present to witness the last set of such large footprints. Kishimoto-sensei, really, you've done a great job! Yūdai Kimura (GARDEN one-shot) - It's an honor to have my work be published in such a celebrated issue. I'm waiting for comments on my work.

Kishimoto also left a message of his own:
I feel both happy and sad reaching my final chapter. It's a difficult feeling. Even so, I can say this: My thanks to all the readers. Thank you so much for reading until the end. Thanks for so long, and good work. Believe it!!
A Chinese fan also posted a humorous comic about the send-off:
The text reads:
Naruto is ending in Shonen Jump after 15 years of serialization, two main television anime series, a spin-off television series, and a multitude of movies. The film advertised as the final installment, The Last -Naruto the Movie-, will open in Japanese theaters on December 6.
