"The only notable takeaway is that Kakashi is indeed alive"
Yeah right. What is up with all of you complainers? I'm so sick of people claiming that everything is a filler chapter unless Kishi has to literally spell everything out for you. "Oh, Kakashi's alive thats all that matters" Did you read the manga or just look at the pictures? Give me a break. It showed the first's dream being fulfilled through the present kages (which was just explained the chapter previous to this one) rallying the surviving ninja that had given up all hope of winning the war, it showed how important Naruto is to the leaf and his peers (which have been done numerous times before, but when they show it in the anime, it'll be tear-jerker like every other time, where you can't help but feel proud of naruto), it showed the meeting of the first and his granddaughter and how they hold high expectations of themselves and shoulder the burden of the past and present, and most of all it showed that mangapanda needs new translators. But for real though, its a chapter, not a whole season. I'm just sick of people whining about things being filler. If you want filler, watch this:
