One way the anime (or, rather, the OVA) one-upped the manga is that it included the Hidden Waterfall's tree, which produced a substance (Hero Water) every 100 years that increased someone's Chakra's power tenfold at a great cost.
A decade later, the God Tree (Shinju) was revealed to produce a substance (the Chakra Fruit) every 1000 years that increased the power of Kaguya's Chakra by many times, but possibly drove her insane.
Now, I wonder what Kishimoto was inspired by...? :hmm:
