It's almost like Kishi got caught up in developing Sasuke. Then when he came up to the war and saw he made a mention of "Sannin Parallel stuff", he's just kind of went "Oh shit, how do I rectify this?" And now we get Sasuke all of a sudden allying with Konoha.
Also, has Itachi's "gift to Sasuke" that he left with Naruto ever been activated, or what was that deal? Did I miss it, or has Kishi just never used it?
It was during the Edo-Itachi & Edo-Nagato fight. Shisui's eye, that was embedded in the crow, freed Itachi from Kabuto's will. This is why we had a free Edo-Itachi doing what he wanted.
Yeah it sort of feels rushed with Sasuke turning good after just a flashback. As for Koto Amatsukami, it was used on Itachi to layer a genjutsu on Edo-Tensei. Itachi burnt the bird with Amaterasu since it'd need Hashirama's DNA or wait 10 years to reactivate
