I continue to be really underwhelmed with how they portray Hagoromo. The second Naruto obtained half of his power, he displayed god-like abilities like a perfect understanding of chakra and the ability to heal almost everything with a single touch, and Sasuke displayed similarly impressive feats of power with the other half. Jiraiya even claimed he was said to have created the foundations of all the techniques used by modern ninja. But here we have Hagoromo using regular old medical ninjutsu to heal others, being astounded by techniques created by a young child, and not even hinting at any of the Six Paths abilities/Six Paths Senjutsu/Sword of Nunoboko and so on. We haven't even seen him float once, but it appears to be his favourite hobby in death. And that's still preferable to poor Hamura, who is either extremely humble and self-deprecating or literally unable to deal with a moderately large rock.
