<p>He talked with Sakumo up until he was revived by Nagato. </p><p>To review for you; </p>

1. In that time, Naruto appared on the battlefield.
2. Fought Pain
3. Turned into Kurama
4. Chibaku Tensei happened
5. Naruto searched and found Nagato
6. Talk no Jutsu
7. THEN Rinne Tensei

<p>No. His brain did not last that long after dying. He was dead. He talked to his dead father, get over it. </p><p>P.S. Remembering Minato and Obito and Rin is what happened in the manga. "Seeing them" only happened in the anime. </p>

Then explain the 2 things above instead of ignoring them and brushing me off with a "get over it"

<p>Yes Elve-kun, Kakashi was indeed dead. The place where he met his father is an inbetween world so to speak. And the afterlife and the pure world are the same. </p>

<p>Thank you, Seel. I was worried I'd have to repeat myself again. </p>

<p>Kakashi remembered his team before he died and he did remember Naruto's generation as well, then he died and met his father. </p>

<p>Kakashi was the only one that Kishi focused on him since he is a main character, we don't know what happened to others like Shizune. Also this could be a characteristic to the Edo Tensei, that those who have been brought with it don't remember what had happened between. And we are not sure if Kakashi still remember what happened with his father. Anyway I think this deserve its on article. </p>

<p>What are you talking about? Your accusation is not only a direct insult, but also false. First, Narutopedia is the last place where I would go to get my fixation from preaching my "misplaced bias", second, you don't know me that well, definitely not to the extent you might think you do. </p>

<p>You have to be dead to be revived by Rinne Tensei, Kakashi was definitely dead. </p>

<p>I don't doubt that, I doubt existence of afterlife where souls are conscious. Those revived by Edo Tensei suggest otherwise. Not only don't they remember being dead but also are confused. </p>

And yet Kakashi was dead an conscious. Doubt abated.
