They're not mutually exclusive traits but that's what the series tells us. If Kagura was a bloodthirsty dude and Yagura was a bloodthirsty dude and that was it, i'd be cool. But here they tell us Kagura is a bloodthirsty dude BECAUSE Yagura was a bloodthirsty dude. Which, from what we've seen and heard, he wasn't, he comes off as a totally chill guy with Naruto, plus his entire design doesn't scream bloodthirsty killer. You might tell me "well Vegeta, Freeza & Buu in DBZ are short as fuck and don't look threatening either, but they're the main villain of THEIR saga". Point is though, we specifically have Madara/Obito, a villain who is there and who has manipulated/dojutsu'd Yagura into being a total mass murderer. So how can I take Kagura's entire "I have an inner darkness within me like my grandfather, that cruel monster" when we're told that his pappy wasn't in full control of his actions most of the time?

Also traced back my steps from the Shizuma thing -_-' turns out i got that from the wrong title on the youtube vid clip... i am disappoint.

At some point, Mifune fell prey to Kotoamatsukami and says Danzo should lead the alliance, a decision believed by everyone else in the room to be bullshit. What if Boruto met Mifune's grandson, whose entire conflict is "the same 'bad-political-choices' blood runs through my veins...! I have the same chances of making bullshit decisions...!" How believable would that be?
