Kimimaro and Sasuke have obvious similarities such as being users of kekei genkais and being perfect vessels for Orochimaru,However, the greatest parallel between them is ignored in chapter 216. Kabuto mentions that the Kaguya clan tried to attack the Mist Village but were massacred, leaving only Kimimaro. One of the factors for this defeat was that the Kaguya clan had no allies. It is very similar to the massacre of the Uchiha clan, which was going to attempt a coup d'état, but Itachi prevented this movement by the Uchihas. Even in the flashback of the Valley of the End, it is clear that there was a hidden plot for the public and that it would be developed. Unfortunately, the fandom does not pay attention to the details and nuances of the manga.
