Oh well, I'll see what I can do then. Your suggestions are going directly in my notes though, I hoped you're fine with that. thanks.

Since you brought this up, I'd like to hear more of your opinion on the matter.

Called it. Should I clarify in the next chapter? I originally left it vague, dismissing everything as a dream so it seems like he only has those specific memories and nothing else breaking the fourth wall. Should I add those memories to his research arcs to explain his limited awareness, or just use an Author’s Note?

I’m not sure if you primarily read Chinese fanfiction, but a lot of Chinese fanfics tend to heavily favor the main character. This one, however, is different from the start—even rejecting the "genius" label, as already mentioned. Misunderstanding tropes exist outside of Chinese fanfiction, you know. You might want to branch out and try some Korean manhwas. You're talking as if he's a reincarnated protagonist who should be overly cautious in everything he does. But he's just a four-year-old kid—not an adult in a child's body. The fact that he’s even able to research cursed energy on his own is already pushing the limits of realism, and yet your main complaint is that he isn’t careful enough for his age? That’s a strange expectation. When I was four, I was just a headache-inducing menace to my parents. Also, no. Blue is not a common cursed energy color.

yeah

Madara rn:

I can't spoil anything about that now can I?

I hope you enjoy the story! And no, Hinata is not the love interest. In the story, she looks up to Akai as an older brother—just like she does with Neji, both now and in the future.
