Still a shit character and a pathetic choice for a final villain.

Highly doubt it. Kishimoto didn't think of the entire manga in advance. He made stuff up as he went on. Had he planned Kaguya since then things wouldn't have gotten as mellow as they were.

I find it quite interesting.

If only she didn't limit her capabilities

Kishimoto has always been referencing folklore in the manga so she was bound to make an appearance.

Still doesn't excuse the fact that it was shit.

If you know the story of Princess Kaguya then it's pretty obvious he planned Kaguya for a while, probably as early as Pain Arc when he said he had the whole war planned out.

I don't think she's shit though, if Kishi saved her for another arc she could have been further developed. Maybe she wouldn't have been a brainless shinobi unable to use Hyuuga jutsu and cast hundreds of Indra arrows.. :hmm:

Or it was the other way around. That is to say, he based kaguya off of the ve do mazo

He said it in a "notes from the author" in 1 of the pain arc volumes, and The Tale of Princess Kaguya, the oldest known Japanese folk tale, there's a Ghibli Movie about it and it's pretty great.

I know, I'm saying with the chakra she had she technically could fill the planet with lightning, she had 0 skill not even enough to turn her chakra into elements

Umm thanks for giving me the links to the movies but you didn't give me the source where he said it. What "notes from the author"?

She didn't know ninjutsu because that was invented by Hagaromo, she was limited to manipulating the elements in her dimensions, using dojutsu, and weaponizing her bones.
