Generally:

manga: Kaguya's lack of backstory or really poor one, little to none character development. Overpowered DMS Kakashi, Kaguya's end and loss was let down to me.

anime: Kaguya got a bit of backstory even although some parts of it seemed to contradict manga, but well. Not overpowered DMS Kakashi with Kamui moves but still looked cool. Kaguya's end wasn't that bad, but wasn't great either, also great soundtrack

game: Great soundtrack for Kaguya's ressurection/return. Black zetsu's devil voice, Nice battle choreography, Definietly not overpowered DMS Kakashi and Perfect Susanoo of his. Kaguya's end was really cool and you could feel threat in air, also characters really looked strong and fast, where anime slacked it off due to animation most likely


About last episode:

Ok, I have just watched this episode and let me show what I like in this episode:

+ Sakura's speed while dodging white arm monster form Kaguya turned in was not any special
+ Kakashi's Susanoo snatching Sakura before white arm monster could reach her was not any great of speed either
+ Kakashi's Susanoo Kamui was cool but they didn't warp even cut part of white arms chakra
+ Kakashi's Kamui Raikiri wasn't such great or overhyped and it was Kaguya who flew so fast at Kakashi that he cut her, he didn't speed blitz her at all.
+ I was right about Obito not comming from death, but through his clinging chakra to ash(which his body turned into) he managed to to make it as last ressort with help of Kamui
+ Kaguya has epic sound track with expassive goudama
+ Too bad, Naruto, Sasuke and even Kaguya looked slower then in manga... I expected something like KinMomoshiki in Boruto the movie
+ Sakura not managing to break Kaguya's horn and didn't to use Susanoo fading away force to power up herself to punch Kaguya enough to bring her a bit down.

- too much of Rin flashback
- repeating Obito's death scene as whole when it was just one episode before
- not expanding on Kaguya's final moments...

All in all 3.5-4/5, Not bad but still could be better. Anyway it seems only game made Kaguya as she should be, I mean end of her so in the end: game > anime > manga when it comes to Kaguya return arc.

What do you think guys ?, I am just curious of your opinion

That arc is a filler so it doesn't matter.

I swear the filler and the flashbacks really drag this arc into the ground.

I dunno how did they accomplish it but the anime version of this arc is even worse than the shitty manga arc

The anime tried to save her, but I still tell myself it never happened. Naruto and Sasuke magically defeated Madara and then proceeded to fight. That's how the series goes in my head.

Anime was the worst one... Manga was meh and forced too. Game can not see it in a serious way since the characters are magically in full health and only Villains suffer since its a game and only "good" I mean the player wins...

Cool, but I mean only about Kaguya power wise being shown in manga, anime and game. Especially her final moments/end of her. Also Naruto and Sasuke and how they fare against her. I don't care about padding or support characters when I reffer to this comparision ;). So please focus only on power wise and ability wise ;). Thank you

She seemed a lot more menacing in the manga, for some reason it kinda seems like sp is just going through the motions. There where scenes in the manga that just weren't brought to life in the anime like I expected and she really doesn't seem like a big bad end villiain, I'm still holding hopes for vote2 though

No matter how many flashback and fillers in the kaguya arc in the anime its still the best , we got to see Hagoromo/indra/ashura/kaguya story unlike the game and the manga , the anime one is so much deeper

She didn't feel like a Villain at all emo... She more menacing in the manga but that's it.

Which was so accurate and didn't repeat things... Right right....

In all of them she looked silly... Nowhere she is better.... She looks weaker in the anime though...

I agree, there's also a few things that happened in the manga during the jj mads fight and beyond that I just think they dropped the ball on in the anime but it is what it is I guess

Storm 4 did the best job, the anime could've done better if we had not had any more obito&rin flashback, they could've spend more time expanding kaguya fight. What a let down, it had so much potential to be great because the animation and the soundtrack went sky rocket but the final battle with kaguya feels so rushed and underwhelming, Storm 4 feels like they did better job in how the stake it becomes and the final battle was done nicely.
