one thing I have to ask, and im sure this isn't the first, nor will it be the last time you hear this question. will Kaguya be making an appearance?
I have to admit that since her introduction to the series she has quickly become one of my favorite characters in the manga. and one I wish could have had a more significant personal role.
to be honest I never really bought the whole "cleanse my nursery" shtick. I actually think that her power and in turn Black Zetsu, were causing her mind to be locked into a delusion of some sorts. the one thing I know about mothers, is that they are nurturing, and willing to do damn near anything to protect their children.
now admittedly there are the few women out there who do not deserve to breed. they are the type to abandon a child simply because it inconveniences them. those women are NOT mothers. just because they birthed the child, does not mean they are a mother. merely a convenient incubator.
bare in mind I have great respect for the female gender and in no way approve various stereo types, but their are women out there who are like that.
Kaguya however does NOT strike me as the type. mentally unbalanced maybe, but at her core she is a mother who believed she was protecting her children through her actions. that does not strike me as the monster that everyone made her into. now obviously she isn't dead, as all sasuke and Naruto did was seal her away, BUT, as you just demonstrated this chapter, everyone seal has a way around it.
as such I believe bringing Kaguya into the fic and making her into a member of the "Pride" would be an interesting twist. especially since I am curious as to how Naruto's pheromones would affect her. and vice versa how her presence might affect him and his girls.
it would be an interesting twist. honestly I mostly just want to see a fic with her in a relationship with Naruto. there are a few out there, very well written ones on fact, but they are VERY few in number. so if at all possible id like to see her added to the fic and possibly the "pride".
(still have a little trouble accepting the term Pride outside of a furry based fic.)
