Edo Tensei: Release!

Edo Tensei: Release! delivers the war's great relief as Itachi forces Kabuto to end the Reanimation Jutsu, freeing every enslaved soul. The episode is the canon turning point — the deathless army dissolving, the resurrected dead released to rest at last, the alliance's gravest threat undone by Itachi's plan. The battlefield exhales. It's the canon arc's hard-won victory, the technique that turned the war into a nightmare of fighting the dead finally broken, the souls of legends and loved ones freed by the brother who chose love over everything.
