Is it too late to bring in new characters?

I just read a great theory from Tebow's Youth Group about the real final villain being the person that tempted Kaguya to eat the fruit of the shinju, Sojobo Tengu. Although the theory is plausible, I thought of something. The series is almost over, isn't it too late to bring new characters into the story?

Even though his existence was hinted at, only people like us on forums who take the time to analyze the backgrounds and story would have caught on. The common Japanese reader (who Kishi is trying to appeal to) most likely does not look for the same hints that we do. My point is, it would seem too random to the average person, and might turn people off from the story because a random person is revealed to be the mastermind.

What do you guys think?

There's just enough time left if they were added right about now.

Many mangas have done that in the past.

The story of Naruto has been about Akatsuki and Madara's Plan since the first chapter, even though it was all behind the scenes and background lore before it was brought up. We have three villains: Madara, Obito, and perhaps Orochimaru.

Any more villains beyond this point will be crazy and rushed, because they will not be informed of this plan. They wouldn't have any allegiances. Since they have no allegiances to either side, having this final villain being taken down by both sides is a terrible idea for a manga Climax. Even if the other side could be convinced their philosophy was wrong, they still have to be punished. Madara still has to be sealed, and I doubt he will go quietly.

Lol. Thanks for the shout-out!


Umm, sure I think there is enough time if you do it right. And if this is actually Kishi's plan then I have a feeling he is going to do it right. Remember, the Tree is about to bloom and even though some say it will never reach its final stage I have to disagree, its the only way to continue the story. Once this happens, the intro of another character could be very realistic.

Do you read bleach?
Kishi probably creates naruto's character version of juha bach to be his new villain.

Kishi did say in an interview that new characters will be introduce , we could say Obito was one , but I don't know if we should count the Jubi or some will come in the next arc .

If they decide to add anyone else I'd assume they'd have to be Edo Tensei.

Possibly Madara's handiwork

Unsure. Not sure about that theory either. What hinting was there that someone tempted her to eat the fruit? She knew well before that they worshiped the tree.
