Kishi did the art for the novels, and even if he did Greenlight them, he didn't say they are canon. The Last and Boruto the movie were stated to be canon. There's a difference between stating and speculation.

I guess since the games and movies use character's made by Kishimoto means that he approved them, and I guess that means they are canon too, by that logic - yeah, no. There has NEVER been an instance in the entire series written by Kishimoto and approved as Canon by him in which Genjutsu killing by itself. Tsukuyomi is a Mangekyo Sharingan Genjutsu. It is just a Genjutsu with nothing else added in, no Senjutsu, no Six Paths Chakra, nothing else. Thus, it can be concluded that it alone can't be used to kill. Infinite Tsukuyomi can't even kill by itself. Genjutsu isn't real, and it isn't even special genjutsu like Izanagi.

Better luck next time fam.
