i dont get why people seem to think every chapter should be non-stop action

we don't, we just don't expect the exact opposite of "non-stop action"

I looked Izanami up and it turns out this is some Japanese myth. Basically Amaterasu Tsukuyomi and Susanoo are the children of Izanagi and Izanami (who are also brother and sister). And ofc the things the jutsus do in Naruto are related to the myth ex. Amaterasu is the sun godess.And they were spawned by Izanagi's eyes so it makes even more sense. So basically without going into too much detail Izanami is the godess of creation and death which doesn't say much BUT it said that before her death she transfered her soul into an animal and a human. And seeing as how Kabuto is basically both animal and human my gues is Itachi iis transfering his soul into Kabuto. Imho that's why he was so smug. He was probably transfering his soul into Kabuto while they were talking and that's why he told Sasuke that Izanami is already done or started (don't remember the exact quote).

Kinda funny really. I bet Japanese people who knew this myth weren't suprised at all about anything. Basically all of the Uchiha abilities are based on this. The moment you first see Tsukuyomi and know this myth you can basically expect the rest.

Edit: Just thought of this - if he actually transfers his soul into Kabuto maybe he will be able to undo Edo Tensei. Remember how Kabuto said that only he can undo this jutsu and it has no weakness and then Itachi said I'm it's weakness? Makes perfect sense if he was planning a soul transfer. And then after he undoes edo tensei he'll die because he'll say that basically edo tensei ressurects the soul not the body and even tho he is in Kabutos body it's still his soul. And this way it will fit with the myth because there it says that Izanami died after she did this soul transfer.

There doesn't need to be back story for every single side character... Orochimaru's was cool because of the relation to Konoha but who really gives a fuck about Kabuto, seriously? He's just some substitute baddie who had no backstory to start with and definitely doesn't need 10 pages of baww orphan storyline now ~_~

it's not even an interesting one like pain's

I like story progression but developing a character that will most likely die in the next 3 chapters just to make his death feel more meaningful doesn't really do it for me.

if he was a new character id agree with you but Kabuto is a pretty old character who deserves soem progression

Eh, he was never really a relevant character though. I don't like how they did him, he was a flunkie, then someone who was working behind the scenes, now he's suddenly the single strongest ninja in the world for no apparent reason? I really don't care :\
