ahhh too short :) love the story, please keep up the great work :)

A Nara shadow-based fanfic is a welcome read, indeed. Good pacing/characters, a somewhat unique powerful, but not OP, system, but sometimes a bit of the typical 'everybody is stunned by the MC and his amazing abilities' BS :). Apart from some scuffed names the writing quality is good, definitly worth a read.

not really; he kind of made more progress until the chunin exam. rotation, 64 palms etc on his own. basically 'elite chunin'-lvl. but in shippuden till his death he 'just' managed to become a jonin. even left behind by civilians like Sakura. he kind of lost his drive after accepting the family.

well... there isnt really much you can do as a 4 year old.

I read Sasuke instead of Sakura...

Is it just me, or is eny piece of information repeated 2-3 times over the last few chapters?

yes, he didnt really teach anything besides basic chakra control. to be fair, Naruto was basically totally lacking in every basic ninja skill and his personality is almost completely opposite to Kakashis, but he didnt even learn proper taijutsu. Sakura didnt learn anything, not even genjutsu, and only learned under Tsunade. Sasuke learned lightning transformation/chidori, but still not really anything related to the SHaringan which was the point of Kakashis appointment(unless thats only FF). Kakashi was either too lazy to teach them or had orders not to teach them too much. most of what they learned they did on their own in combat. Sakura under Tsunade and Sasuke under Orochimaru have shown vast improvements. Naruto didnt really have any improvement under Jiraya, neither in knowledge or chakra control.

thats just class 1A, it's for the most talented students. basically for clan members and some random civilians. there should be many more classes. otherwise the number of ninjas would never reach 10k+.
