Last year in late Jan and Feb Hashirama was introduced and given a proper backstory.

Who of great importance will be introduced this month?

I have a suspicion that it will be Hagaromo.

Yeah I am thinking this mystery man is either the original Rikudo or one of his sons, probably the elder son. Karin and Kabuto are off the table for me after this week's chapter.

Of course. In predicting manga, we have to take business into account.

Nobody wants Kabuto so Kishi is not going to give Kabuto.

People want Rikudo.

We have less than 7 months left till the end of the manga. No way Kishi is going to start wasting panel time now.

It's gotta be Hagaromo. It is the best business choice to boost popularity and also the most efficient one given the time limit.

I hope none this time, of course it's not related to any month, several new characters have been introduced throughout the years. Pointless to connect it to specific months U_U

less than 7 months left till the end of the manga. That leaves how much room?

Only one or two.

I'm guessing Hagaromo will be there since after the Tobi reveal and Hashirama flashbacks, Hagaromo is the only person left of interest.

Let me ask, is there enough space to add in someone that isn't Hagaromo. We have less than 7 months left.

How do you know that it's ending in less than 7 months?

Kishi said it ends in summer.

One of the interviews I believe.

I read somewhere a interveiw stating it might end in 2014 and that the manga is in the final phase, but nothing that specific like in summer. I don't take those interviews too literal anyway.

First let me say, you cannot trust manga authors, that say their manga will end at some date. I have heard that many times with many different manga, including Naruto. They never say, there is that amount of chapters left. They always give some estimate, which is impossible to set at the time, at which they give it. New ideas my come to mind. Money also plays a big role. So assuming that there is less than 7 months, is not really something you can use as an argument. If Kishi suddenly wants another year, he will get another year.

Whoever is left of interest is up to Kishi. I still think, we need Madara's full story (including Izuna), we need a pure way to draw parallels from Madara/Izuna to Itachi/Sasuke. Madara was not able to make the same decision as Itachi did in order to protect his younger brother. We need to reach that conclusion, it will be vital for many things and understanding throughout the entire story.

So is Hagaromo also of interest? I don't really find his story of any relevance whatsoever. It's hard to say of course, but I think his two sons are of more importance regarding the current scenario, because they are the ones who started the feud between Senju and Uchiha (or so I believe).

But it's hard to tell, if I explain deeper, I just have to write waay to much. Any guess is as good as mine :)
