They probably didn't plan this far ahead, but it seemed to me that Kakashi took the Zabuza/Haku battle much more seriously after Haku jumped in front of his Lightning Cutter, basically committing suicide to protect Zabuza. Compare this to the earlier (but more recently revealed) death of Rin: suicide by Kakashi's Lightning Cutter in order to protect Konoha from the tailed beast inside her. Maybe the parallels shook the poor guy up.

The amount of *****s Kakashi has Chidori'd is too damn high in the series, lmao

That's Oda level foreshadowing, man.

That's a level of foreshadowing I highly doubt Kishi had ever achieved in his run with Naruto. No offence to the guy, he's great, but for his next manga I sincerely hope he learned a lesson and properly plans out plotlines ahead of time.

Now that you mention it
I did not think about that
But I don't think Kishi planned all that out tbh

Yeah, I know Kishimoto didn't showcase the best level of foreshadowing...but I'll say this much, there is one moment in the manga which really took me off guard when I reread through the manga's older chapters.

Zetsu's very first appearance is him commenting on how interesting the fight between Naruto and Sasuke, the transmigrates of Indra and Ashura he'd be revealed to have been watching all along over four hundred chapters later, and commenting on how interesting it was shaping things out to be.

Now I don't know if this was fully intended, but either way, its damn impressive.

SP later asked Kishi about Kaguya.
Kishi got the Kaguya idea from SP.

That didn't mean he didn't have something planned for Zetsu. Perhaps not Kaguya, but definitely something. I mean, can you really ignore someone that non-human? I can get behind Kisame, but f*cking Zetsu, man. You'd have to explain something that weird at some point.
