Great beginning to a new arc me thinks.
No forbidden stuff like asking for and posting links to the episode on fansites

The assiliants didn't seem to enter Konoha territory itself, they only lured the guards outside and defeated them there. In case you're referring to Mitsuki leaving the village unnoticed by the barrier, Sasuke did the same when he defected to Orochimaru, so it's not something exclusive for the post-war period.
Still doesn't answer my question, how come during the Pain arc. they had sensing barrier, but other plot events ignore such a thing :P

Well, I think it costs alot of chakra and needs to be mantained by other shinobi. In the Pain Arc, everyone knew Pain was coming, so it's obvious that they would keep their security to the highest possible. There are probably people checking on the barrier, and it may not be that easy to do it.
During this period/episode, everyone was called for a meeting, possibly even the Jonins that held the barrier, or the barrier was only used as a measure to protect against Pain. It probably does cost alot of chakra and focus, that not everyone can do it on a daily basis, without any threat during that time. Remember, Shikamaru also mentioned that they have friendly relationship with all the villages, showing that they literally have no reason to go over the pain of using all their resources for a barrier, when everyone seems at peace.
Considering they just got attacked by Otsutsuki, Urashiki is on the loose and they are expecting to get attacked by even more Otsutsiki, one would think the security should be more tight than ever.
Well, if you take a look back at the chapters during war, Orochimaru, Sasuke and Taka entered and left The Leaf just like that. Either it means the barrier holder has duties on war, or is dead, or is injured or it's just too complicated of a jutsu to hold without expecting sudden threats.
Yes, the Otsutsuki's attacked and they will definently attack again, hey the Leaf even wondered over the idea of this attack being responsible of them, but they brushed it off on the basis that Sasuke didn't report any unusual things. So, I guess any Otsutsuki related threats are warned by Sasuke. There wasn't much point to the barrier since these guys can just fly atop it and jump or teleport to where they want to in the village. They literally just flew down in the middle of the Chunnin Exams, showing that there would be nothing near the level of what the Leaf presently has, to secure and alert them of these guys. The barrier is best for threats like War, suspicious sudden attacks(that has to be expected from the start) or strong enemies like the Akatsuki. Even then, Pain just flew in(by throwing himself) into the village, if someonewas running, then they could be handled right close to the walls, preventing them to enter any further.
You could probably have another Otsutsuki attack, because Sasuke did not come back to tell you anything.
the series is getting boring to me now. i actually dropped it. To be honest, I like the way they are trying to build the other sub characters something the original series didnt do. However, to much of it is slice of life and not enough action. I understand its peace time, but that is peace amount the five great nations. They should have shown ninjas going to the smaller nations to stop the war there. So in other words, there are other stories to pursue.

Yeah, but then again, they cant take just risk of causing panic and havoc among the villages by performing protection measures for Aliens with just false alarms. Only when a definite threat comes, that they know are coming soon, can they be efficent with their security. Their only source of Inte dimensional beings and their possible visits comes from Sasuke.

Which is usually a sign that the writer need to plan better and take notes of his own work
