Anyway, I enjoyed Madara as the final villain. It just felt fulfilling after all the foreshadowing and backstory with Obito and the Akatsuki. He seemed like the perfect balance between the historical mythology of the Naruto universe and the everyday Naruto world. He orchestrated everything via Tobi and Nagato, being the mastermind behind the Fourth Great War, all the while a representative of the legendary Sage of Six Paths' power.

Now, with Kaguya, the scale's tipping all the way towards nebulous mythos and legend. Sure, she's connected to the Shinju and Tailed Beasts, but we were pretty much clueless about her specifically, until Hagoromo described her to Naruto and Sasuke only a few chapters ago. That's pretty deep backstory that hasn't seen any real development in the story until just now, and to see her as the final villain (for now, lol) is depreciating.
