Hagaromo was dumb, his mom was dumb, Hamura was probably also dumb, it runs in the family

Then what is there to worry about? And it's never stated that the Juubi's chakra is indestructible.

It's been stated tailed beasts regenerate. They're made of chakra (besides shukaku) read the manga so you don't post stupid stuff.

Regenerate=/=indestructible

I shouldn't have to tell you this and Sasuke stated that destroying chakra is possible.

-Hagoromo created the tailed beast instead of just destroying the Juubi's chakra like Sasuke was going to do. He knew that the Juubi's revival was possible, yet he didn't destroy that possibility when he had the chance.

-Hagoromo didn't bother to tell Naruto and Sasuke how to dispel MT before confronting Madara. It was only by sheer luck that he returned to the world of the living to tell them.

-Hagoromo gave Naruto and Sasuke a seal that would create a moon. Had Naruto and Sasuke seal Madara in chapter 674(which they almost did) a large chunk of the planet would have been destroyed. They could have just defeated Madara the same way they did with Obito.

-Hagoromo thinks that Naruto and Sasuke should duke it out when the whole world is becoming Zetsu. Both of them almost die, putting the world in endanger.

-Hagoromo didn't bother to tell Naruto and tailed beast about Sasuke's plan. Endangering them.

-Hagoromo ruined the next generation surpassing the previous one theme.

-Hagoromo is a walking retcon that makes the entire story idiotic.

-Instead of desroying the juubi, he separated its power and guided the bijuu as if they were pets. The Juubi's power is limitless, it can't just "be destroyed". Even if you kill the bijuu they simply respawn after a period of time. They, as well as the juubi, can only be sealed.

-He gave them immeasurable power, they used it to defeat Madara and Kaguya...
What more was necessary? everything was taken care off..

- So a large chunk of the Earth would be taken. Point? It's a lot better than the whole Earth. Not to mention the entire Shinobi alliance was required when dealing with Obito and Zetsu and Kaguya were still roaming.
It worked out for the better.

-If they didn't "duke it out" the cycle of hatred would have continued and the world would be right back in danger. Also the people caught in tsuki no mi don't turn into zetsu until they're chakra is drained.. No one is around to drain they're chakra. Also Hagoromo had no control over the two fighting each other. He couldn't stop them or make them. Maybe by taking the chakra back, but they still would have fought.

- Would telling Naruto and co. about his plan stop Sasuke at all? No. What would them knowing prevent?

Hagoromo is an existence outside the realm of their world, in a sense. He can't tamper with the natural order of things just because he happens to be there.

-How did he ruin any theme? The idea of the generation surpassing the previous is still prevalent. Naruto has surpassed all of his masters and his master's masters.

You're obviously just reaching for bad things to point out so that you can gain some kind of approval from others it seems..

-They don't respawn if every last bit of their chakra is destroyed. Naruto also confirms this when Sasuke was burning the Juubi.

-Just in case they fail to stop Madara from activating MT. He could have done it at any moment via the tree and does activated it later on so it would have been handily. Do you seriously believe that not telling them is the believable or smart thing to do? Be honest.

-The alliance is still around. These are Naruto and Sasuke with power-ups. Sasuke also single handlely cut him in half. So yeah, they could have done it again. And Hagoromo did not know about Kaguya and Black Zetsu.

-First off, bold was never stated. Secondly, Black Zetsu's is not around to incite another moon's eye plan. Thirdly, he got rid of the Edos which could have given Naruto back-up via chakra cloaks.

-You know Sasuke could have just used stealth and stabbed Naruto through the head while he was base form, right? It's only by sheer like that he is alive.

-Did any in Naruto's generation surpass Hagoromo? No.

No, you're just making lame excuses.

Sakura is by far worse.

She is taking care of a child that isn't hers.

She doesn't have a home.

Never dated anyone, even though she is in early 30s

Kaguya is the worst character in Naruto, but Hagoromo comes in at a close second. The whole Ootsutsuki family is garbage, honestly. Most of the people who actually like those aliens are Hyuuga fans.

If we were given a backstory of him, maybe things would make more sense, it was the only thing Kishimoto didn't even bother to go into detail of.

I mean one of the greatest clans start from a guy who is said to go curse of hatred from not being chosen as successor to ninshuu, and all his descendants go curse of hatred from loss of a loved one...

Kishimoto did a really bad job when it comes down to the Otsutsuki clan...

Hagoromo really wasn't written good at all, it was like Kishimoto decided to just make him up just to fill in how come the 2 clans (Senju and Uchiha) always fought for centuries, not explaining more...

Also AShura has to clans descended from him, Senju and Uzumaki and Indra just has Uchiha... It's like Kishimoto didn't care to give his fans a story of Indra and Ashura or anything involving them
