Quick recap

After four episodes that look back on Naruto and Sasuke's rivalry, the war breaks out on several fronts, with filler episodes mixed in. Zabuza and Haku, brought back from the dead, take on Kakashi's division; Hanzō fights Mifune and ends up taking his own life; Kinkaku and Ginkaku use the Sage of Six Paths' tools until Darui's team seals them. Shikamaru, Ino and Chōji defeat their own teacher, Asuma, with the Ino-Shika-Chō formation. Naruto slips past his guards and races to the war. Kakashi, Guy and Sai seal the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist. In the end, Ameyuri sinks into the sand with Omoi and, before she's sealed, hands him her sword.
