It was a pretty meh episode and didn't bother to expand on things in the Manga or databook. It was said that the Shinju grew from the blood of the countless deceased from the endless wars. The Anime has it grow from a meteorite that struck Earth. Kaguya was stated to have come to Earth and to have eaten the chakra fruit to end all of the violent wars that plagued it. Here, she says she is the protector of the Shinju. Kaguya was said to use the Infinite Tsukuyomi to end all wars on Earth through force. Here, there was barely a war, only a border conflict between two small countries. This was a poor representation of what the source material said and barely explained or showed us anything new at all. It didn't even give us any backstory to Kaguya herself before she came to Earth or explain anything relating to Momoshiki and Kinshiki. Oh well, at least it at least humanized her a little bit from what the Manga gave us which was nothing.
