Summary

One thing that theNarutofranchise did better than most other shonen series was its incredible casting of villain . They were bass , complex , and brilliantly written , and made the series even better by challenging the fighter not just in battle but in their ideals , such as in the slip of Naruto and Pain . However , not all the villains were well received .

A big criticism ofNaruto Shippudenis the visual aspect of Kaguya , and the unexpected death of Madara . Madara was a fan - favorite fictitious character and one of thebest villain in Zanzibar copal . He was – seemingly – the concluding threat the cast needed to face , and the enemy who yield Naruto and the Allied Forces the hardest time . It came as a cushion when the fiber who had been hyped up for so long short mislay to Black Zetsu and was possessed by Kaguya . However , this plot of ground wind served the anime greatly and Kaguya was one of the best conclusion for the franchise .

Few ninja in the Naruto universe gained control condition of the Sharingan , but even fewer obtained the Rinnegan , which is as powerful as it is complex .

Zetsu’s Plan Was Foreshadowed Long Ago

Naruto was originally created by Masashi Kishimoto; the anime adaptation was produced by Studio Pierrot

Contrary to democratic belief , Kaguya ’s appearing and Zetsu ’s betrayal of Madara did not do out of nowhere ; it was brilliantly foreshadowed in early chapters of the series . The best example is after the fight between Madara and Hashirama in chapter # 626 , when Hashirama sensed someone – or something – observing the fight , which was subsequently bear witness to be Zetsu . This picture showed that Kaguya ’s Logos had been plot something long ago , and was using Madara to make his plan a reality .

The earliest adumbration of Kaguya was with the Kaguya Clan in the pre - clock time skipNaruto . Besides having the same name as their ancestor , the extremity of the kin bore alike facial feature to Kaguya and possessed like power . Kimimaro ’s Kekkei Genkai , for example , was the power to wangle the bones in the body , one of the many ability that Kaguya hadonce she eventually made her major appearing .

Kaguya is really a nod to the classic Nipponese folktale , The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter , with the protagonist being called Kaguya - hime .

Another representative of Kaguya being suggest at is in the linguistic context of the Gedo Statue . To form the Ten - Tails , the Gedo Statue must absorb the chakra of all the Tailed Beasts . Hagoromo and Homura sealed the Gedo Statue in the sky , becoming the moon , and Madara released the Gedo Statue after awakening his Rinnegan , hint that Kaguya would unavoidably appear . This is why Black Zetsu was so interested in Madara , as he had the potential to liberate Kaguya from her slumber , the same path he unleashed the Gedo Statue .

The Mysterious Alien Clan Was Seen In Action For The First Time

The Otsutsuki’s were completely shrouded in mystery throughout the series

DuringNaruto Shippuden , there were only wispy references to the Otsutsuki , and almost every instance of them being mentioned was regarding the Sage Of Six Paths . Virtually nothing was know about the extraterrestrial kinship group and who they really were . Although some details were revealed when Naruto and Sasuke encounter the Sage of Six Paths and the history of the Shinobi domain was finally narrarated for audiences , it still was n’t much , as the nidus was chiefly on Indra and Ashura . That changed when Kaguya was introduced as the final " bountiful badness " in the serial publication , andthe might of an Otsutsukiwas seen for the first time .

This position the stagecoach forBoruto : Naruto the Movieand eventuallyBoruto : Naruto Next Generations . The show revolves around the Otsutsuki clan members , their villainy , and other activities . Boruto would n’t subsist if Masashi Kishimoto had n’t taken the venturous risk of extinguish Madaraand supplant him with Kaguya . This was a game changer , as the serial publication flowed very smoothly between antagonists without make up some absurd new quality that had no prior credit or appearance in the series .

Dimension Travel Was Normalized With Kaguya

The Concept Of Dimensions Became Important In Boruto

Throughout the series , fights have always happen in the Shinobi dimension , and the only fourth dimension it did n’t was the fight between Obito and Kakashi in the Kamui Dimension . One of the things that made the fight between Kaguya and Team 7 dispute was the incessant travel between human beings . From an ice - cold world to a lava - based world , Kaguya reigned over the every terrain . The introduction of new dimensions and earth was one of the most exciting addition to the serial and continued intoBoruto , with Boruto also being able to travel through dimensionswith his Jougan andNaruto being sealed into Daikokuten .

Sakura, Kakashi, & Obito Had Their Time To Shine Against Kaguya

Naruto & Sasuke couldn’t handle the foe on their own

Kishimoto had ignored Sakura ’s voltage for far too long in the original series . Naruto and Sasuke were move on way too fast for her to keep up in terms of power grading , ignoring the unawares - tempered third member . The only development she had was when she mastered the 100 Healing Mark , but her aureole was short - live as she could n’t compete with Ten Tails Madara and Obito . With the coming into court of Kaguya , Naruto , and Sasuke ’s strength was n’t enough to face off against the shinobi god , and Sakura , Kakashi , and Obtio had to ill-treat up to help them .

Kakashi activated his full Mangekyo Sharingan with the assistance of Obito , and Sakura made sure that Kaguya did n’t escape when Naruto and Sasuke were prepare to seal her out . Their involvement in the competitiveness was pivotal . It ’s not a stretch to say that the war would ’ve been lost if Team 7 had n’t united with Obito to take on Kaguya . Furthermore , the coming into court of Kaguya led to one of the most beautiful type conclusions in the serial and one of the most iconic moment , with Obito passing on and urging Naruto to become the Hokage .

A New Level Of Power Was Introduced

Naruto & Sasuke’s final battle was made far more impressive with the power-scaling introduced in the battle with Kaguya

In the combat against Kaguya , Naruto and Sasuke had to go past their limits against the Rabbit Goddess , and this fresh power helped intensify their final conflict . Their long - awaited rematch at the Valley Of Deathwas made more destructive after they defeated Kaguya , leading to the best fight in theNarutofranchise . Of naturally , this novel precedent of strength carry on intoBoruto , and Naruto ’s son surpassing him was due in part to Kaguya force Naruto to become stronger .

In a earth where fighting is everything it ’s no admiration that Naruto has some of the most grand fights in anime .

Madara was an incredible baddie who dazzled fans with his strength and his story , so it was distressing that he went out the way he did . However , Kaguya was a more important opposer in the tenacious runand served to advance the plot , whereas The Ghost Of The Uchiha would ’ve more or less ended the enfranchisement all together . Althoughshe is n’t nearly as good of an adversary as Madara , she assist a majuscule role in the narrativeand allowed fans of theNarutofranchise to keep enjoying the serial with its sequel , Boruto .
