Kaguya and the Juubi were made separate so that SP could make a mere reskin of Naruto and Sasuke sealing Kaguya instead of figuring out how to animate sealing the Juubi.

As for Hagoromo's eyes, I first thought that once he was revealed to have blank eyes similar to the Byakugan, they'd evolve straight to the Rinnegan, and the eye marking would be a result of Six Paths sage mastery. Nope.

Instead of bitching about this filler, shouldn't we open a petition at change.org to remove Studio Pierrot out of existence? :D Their fillers and most of their animation are atrocious. No, they need to stop handling so many series. They push for so much more than what their (either low or restricted) budget allows, leading to hiring of shitty storywriters and shitty animators. They're capable of actually good stuff, but they care more about tackling popular mangas, keeping a weekly schedule (and annual magnum-opus movie schedule), and turning a sizable profit.
