When it comes to quality of the anime, most people lean towards the art. How the anime looks to them.

Art is somewhat important.

But what is most important to me, is whether the anime fully expresses and accurately portrays all the elements shown in the manga and more.

The very first thing included in that is the voice acting. It has to be on point and completely showcase the feelings and emotions of the characters.

The second thing is emphasis on certain moments and the portrayal of their importance and significance.

For example: The moment when Nagato is sealed by the Totsuka and his last words are spoken to Naruto in 299, is by far, one of the greatest and most beautiful moments in all of Shippuden. It was done perfectly! I couldn't be happier with it! :D

The character's voice, the background music and the entire moment was just amazing!

Kakashi chronicles were done by an amateur director. The art was good, but the expression is terrible, Obito's voice actor was terrible, the important moments were not portrayed well at all.
Kakashi chronicles are a huge part of the story. They should be redone by a more experienced and better director.

I actually liked the episode about Kakashi's past. It was something new since I just started reading the manga not to long ago after the pain arc. And it was on key. Music and wording. The voices were a tad bit, strange but if you watch the English Dub you will learn to hate it more. Believe me if you listen to Obito's voice and Kakashi's. It's almost grinding.

The whole scene and portrayal was pretty alright to me. I can see where you are coming from. Everything a character does can convey a sense of everything we feel as humans. But nevertheless it can't be help seeing as all of us are different people with different views. How people read the manga and portrayed it is beyond me. So I don't have a say. But you are right.

There was not enough emphasis on some important situations. Like when Minato is telling Obito about the White Fang, they just played some sad music and Minato told the story as it was. Obito's voice actor is just outright horrible.
Like I said, English Dubs you got to see it. You will quake with fear. The voice actor is from Full Metal Alchemist Edward Elric. And Kakashi sounds like his adult self but with a high pitched voice. Monatomic sounds bland. Only good thing there was Hiruzen's voice in the end.

It was actually one of the best animated pieces in the whole Shippuuden. It was special, they put extra time into making it, as they were preaparing it for the movie. So it has basically the same directors who did the Inheritors of the Will of Fire movie.

And Obito's voice actor was very good. It's weird that you mention Obito, when we had Kakashi being voiced by the same seiyuu he has in his adulthood. So you were ok with that, but not with Obito' voice actor? /because when it came out, people had more problems with Kakashi.

After Minato goes on his separate mission, the scenes are reduced to garbage. Obito's voice actor does some horrible over acting, you can hear it in his voice. Even the scene about the white fang where Minato is talking to Obito isn't done right.
