Kaguya's nature manipulation powers turned out to be pretty pathetic

She traps people in ice but seemingly she can only do this when first bringIng them into the dimension while they are in direct proximity to her. She can move icicle formations. Fantastic. And with those 2 measly abilities she has the audacity to acclaim "this is my realm! You are powerless here!" As she flies toward Naruto, a character with Godlike power who no doubt can break a couple icicles. Jeez.

Then in Gravity dimension she can adjust the gravity, cooler than ice dimension I suppose but still nothing "godlike".

So I'm pretty bothered by how ungodlike her nature manipulation powers were, Kabuto could do similar shit so why is she acting like its some incredible game changing power to move icicles? ****

Kaguya in general was pathetic, Madara shoulda been the final boss.

No I loved Kaguya, I loved her concept, I loved her story, her design, even the idea behind her powers. But things just got really stupid with those ice dimension shenanigans that I can't help but express my frustration. That whole section was retarded.

Kaguya was in a derange state, she was trapped from generations, she probably gon mad, her children betrayed her. What did you expect from her, some smart, unemotional villain, who slayed the world.

It still overwhelmed naruto for a while. Just because it isn't flashy doesn't mean its useless.

didn't overwhelm him, he pretended to be trapped in order to punch Kaguya, Kaguya just severely underestimated him. I just found it uncreative, everything else was creative except this. It didn't even use ice's unique properties, it could have very well been the rock dimension. Would have been neat if she used the snow flakes as a weapon of some sort, maybe it drains his body heat as she cakes it onto him, that would have used the unique properties of the dimension at least. That's why I liked her gravity manipulation, it actually used the unique properties of said kenkai genkai.

I mean seriously though, the earth ninja sandwiching the Juubi in 2 giant slabs of stone was far more impress than godess Kaguya's icicle trap. Just why Kishimoto why, you were on such a role before imo.

Also last time I checked Kaguya leveled characters were blasting through the sky like jet planes or DBZ characters, why does it take 3 pages for Kaguya to fly towards the "trapped" Naruto? She even has time to say an entire sentence, inconsistent or what?

Kaguya was basically pathetic from start to finish. No character development, no reason to her madness, pathetic display of skill (albeit her moves were strong), and her end was the nail to the coffin of her character.

I liked the fight in the lava dimension, after the sexy no jutsu shit though it went downhill, she no longer seemed threatening and more of a joke, her and black zetsu seemed incompetent and in over their heads when trying to take on the team. For me the lowest point was when she's flying towards Naruto who's pretending to be trapped in ice, she takes forever to get there for some reason and it seems so forced and cheesy IMO.

If they changed that part then I'd be happy with her fight but it's there and it ****in bothers me it completely broke my suspension of disbelief how the **** could it take 3 pages for Kaguya to fly that distance given how fast ninja have been from the start of the series hell ninja in invasion of konoha were crossing long distances in the blink of an eye and Kaguya takes like 10 whole seconds to cross like 100 feet wtf?

I disagree. She became pathetic when she got stunned by reverse harem jutsu. :|

Well, it was tossing him around like a ragdoll. He only pretended to be trap because she stopped using the ice to attack him.
Idk man, ask kishi why he didn't expand on those powers and stop being so attention to detail.

Just let it be.

I thought those scenes was just of the ice closing in on him, and I'm just going to go ahead and assume that when she was flying towards him she wasn't going nearly her full speed but rather a brisk flight. If she was going full speed Naruto wouldn't have time for an inner monolgue and she wouldn't bother to speak mid-flight.

She caused an avalanche and the ice started to attack him. I guess that makes sense since she was holding back to absorb his Chakra.

i don't think it was that she was trying to preserve chakra, but I think she just was so sure he was trapped she wasn't in a rush.

Kaguya was not going all out due to emotional attachment to her soulchildren. This is why Black Zetsu kept trying to lead her away from that. Even while holding back she had them on edge and easily ***** slapped Perfect Susanoo. Way above Madara's level who got easily slashed in half by Sasuke.

Dont blame Kaguya but blame Kishi who wrote her plot.

If she had been put up against anybody else, she would have wrecked. Just because Naruto is stronger than her or has better techniques doesn't mean that she is weak. She could easily wreck the shinobi alliance if Naruto or sasuke wasn't there
