Really, I'm excited by the news of the (once again) final villain, and have high hopes of all the questions around the Otsutsuki's finally being anwered, but...the concept on how Kishi handled the whole Otsutsuki-block of the plot is pretty off.

We had Madara as a very long built up villain of the manga, then Kishi pulled out Kaguya very late in the plot (which I'm ok with as I obviously like her), BUT instead of fully developing her story and explaining her background and motivations, he cut her short and ended the manga with many questions left.

Next, he gave us a movie with a new Otsutsuki villain, answering some of the questions (Hamura...).

Then we get a new manga, which was originally thought to be a story about the new generation, but turned into Naruto/Sasuke against an old experiment of Orochimaru. And in the midst of this, we hear about this new super-villain that may be the secret of the whole Otsutsuki-plot.

Then we hear he will appear in the new movie, which was supposed to be about Boruto, but now apparently will be the actual final battle of the series.

--------------------

It's one huge patchwork rug. I really would have prefered if Kishi had incorporated the complete Otsutsuki story either in Part II, or made a proper Part III about it, ending Part II with Madara. Either way, I feel he could have built up this splot much better and careful, so that it wouldn't feel so inconsistent and all over the place.

Yea it's definately gonna tie up all the loose end now. I would love to learn more about the Ootsutski, but it begs me the question, how does Shin and all of Oorchimaru lab rats tie in all of this supposedly bigger threat than Kaguya to which Sasuke speak of.

Kishi would have planned out plot and villains from the very start (e.g. we see in part one Sasuke is developing lightning, and at the end of the manga Sasuke is declared to represent Indra - translates as King of gods from buddhism and hinduism). However, towards the end of the manga shonen jump told him it would be finishing in the issue november something 2014 (on chapter 700). That's why it got a bit squashed with otsutsuki towards the end...

Most likely they simply don't. There has been no hint at all that Shin has a connection to this super-Otsutsuki. He is just the villain of this mini-manga. Which is pretty bad since now that we know about the movie, nobody cares for him anymore, he was only interesting to fans as long as they thought he may be the threat Sasuke spoke about...

Shin was never impressive to me in the first place, I always suspected he's just a product of an experiment, the thing that comes to my mind through sasuke speculation in regard to someone who is more fearful than Kaguya and the creation of white zetsu who was existed the same time as Kaguya is obviously an ootsutski
