Yes, anything at all can be explained if the viewer is allowed to just make shit up to explain it. If you have to pull stuff out of your ass to explain something though, it's still a plot hole.

That's the point. The animation studio shouldn't be trying to "continue the story". What if they're writing shit that's in direct confrontation with something Kishimoto intends to write? Or worse, is in direct confrontation with something he's ALREADY written. Which is exactly what happened.

Giving the fox elemental attacks is fine if Kishimoto intends for it to be able to do it. Maybe he had a very good, very specific reason why the Kyuubi didn't have them yet. Maybe the animators just ruined that now because their giving things powers they shouldn't have.

There's no reason they even needed to add fire attacks. Blasts of red chakra would have worked just as well.
