Not to be a buzz-kill regarding manga canon and anime non-canon material, but is it possible that, based on Kakashi's analysis likening the shift in reality to Genjutsu, that Kaguya's ability is in fact a very powerful - perhaps even affecting bijuu inside jinchuriki - Genjustu? It's been observed that the ability origininates from her third eye which is noted by Hagoromo to be the source of her Sharingan abilities and Infinite Tsukuyomi, as seen by its up-close before entering the Ice dimension. Also if it is a genjutsu (this is where the anime issue comes in) isn't it essentially a large-scale mirror of the anime-filler arc about Yakumo Kurama - "the genjutsu is powerful enough to literally convince the victim's brain to physically reflect anything that happens to the victim within the genjutsu, to their body, making it possible for her to kill her opponents with genjutsu...Yakumo's talent in genjutsu is completely overwhelming and has a wide area of effect, as she was able to put the entire Konohagakure under a powerful illusion." - sourced from this website's description of Yakumo's abililities

If so, I feel as though the hype behind Kaguya's ability has been lessened in my eyes, but it's simply what I've seen. Thoughts?
