Given it has no episodes from the actual manga story arc at all, it almost feels like a stand-alone OVA series and if you look at it like that, there is a lot to enjoy here. It doesn’t really present anything new, but it does tie up some loose threads (like Kakashi and Yamato’s friendship) while nicely joining several flashback scenes from the past into one flowing story. If you’re really into the lore of the Naruto series then you’ll enjoy this. If you’re really into the manga adaptation and are looking forward to seeing the end, then you’ll be disappointed as this looks back for its entire runtime, rather than forward. So, Box Set 28 is a hard one to talk about. The extras are the usual trailers and clean opening and endings. The first ending is “Niji” (“Rainbow”) by Shinkū Hollow, also from 349 to 356, when it switches to “FLAME” by DISH// up to Episode 361 at the end of the set. “Tsuki no Okisa” (or “Size of the Moon”) by Nogizaka46 is your opening theme for Episodes 349 to 356, when it’s replaced by “Guren” (“Crimson”) by DOES (which I’m glad is in all caps otherwise “by does” would be a grammar nightmare), from Episode 357 to 361.

It then ends with a few time jumps showing Kakashi leaving the ANBU, becoming a failed teacher, then finally a successful one with Naruto right back at the start of the series. While a lot of this is newly animated and focuses more on Itachi’s time with ANBU and his mission as we now know it was, it does feel like running over old ground and even unnecessary, especially now that Itachi and Sasuke have made peace with each other in the main show. We then eventually get to Itachi’s forced betrayal and the events surrounding the Uchiha Coup d’État. While most of these plot points have either been shown or heavily implied, seeing them all tied together in one string of episodes is nicely done, and makes a change from just going back to when Naruto was a kid in the original series like a lot of flashback arcs. The good thing about this story is that it’s not just Kakashi, we see the events leading up to and the immediate after-effects of Obito unleashing the Nine-Tails Demon Fox on the Hidden Leaf Village and Minato’s death, we see ANBU leader Danzo’s schemes early in development as well as Orochimaru’s betrayal of the Hidden Leaf and his dealings with several other characters, including the future Yamato on whom he was still experimenting at the time.
