The Author here, i just made this review so you could leave any questions you wanted me to answer in the comments. This is my first fanfiction so please bear with my if i make any mistakes. <3

I'll start off by saying this story is pretty good and does focus a bit more on me actual brutality that a ninja world would have. A lot of the time the action and tactics are pretty solid that are easily better than half the other Naruto stories here. However, there is a rather noticeable problem with the main character. They are considered "smart", coming up with clever ideas. And to some extent that is true, they do have their moments. However, their actions are completely contradictory to their goals. The MC wants to avoid death and many brutal battles, ensuring his safety. And how does he go about doing that? By killing powerful ninjas, drastically standing out, and increasing his reputation, trying to seem like a genius. Predictably, this fails to ensure his safety, as NOW he's been promoted to a Chunin and isn't allowed to go back to the Leaf Village in war time. Who could've guessed that making people believe you're a genius, as well as killing a Jonin and announcing it to everyone would've done that... What the MC wants and what the author wants are the exact opposite. This is why despite being "smart" he makes obvious mistakes that take him further and further away from his goal. His foolishness has even caught the attention of Root. Where he showed off by reciting their hidden creed to them. Expecting them to believe that he just came up with it. He has been threatened with torture and having his mind read on more than one occasion. Again, the author and the MC are not in sync and that makes the story feel dysfunctional.

Man I haven't laughed this much reading a Naruto fanfic in so long I'm only 12 chapters in and I'm loving this story it very well written isnt another Chinese translation but a a rare original story which is a huge plus in my book. I can wait to see what the author has in store for this entertaining story they have created in the future for this fanfic.

Other than a few spelling error this story was just what I needed I haven’t found a decent webnovel fic in months till now. I really like the character and the situations he always ends up because of the jonin commander. At the rate he’s going with all of these death loop’s especially with how he basically kept killings himself to master the shushin jutsu he may very well end up like the Greed If Subaru from ReZero.

Congratulations Author, splendid arc/volume. Although, I dislike the type of archetype you portrayed through the MC; For the first time, I appreciate it, thanks to the subtlety sprinkled throughout. Thank you 😊

This is awesome—finally, a story with a protagonist who thinks, makes mistakes, solves them, has traumas, and suffers a lot. At last, a truly human protagonist. I also really liked the time-loop concept; I’ve been wanting to see a Naruto fanfiction with this theme for a long time

I have read all 11 chapters released until now and I like the direction the story is headed towards I just hope you don't stop updating. EVIL MC SUPREMACY

A MC with a good head, Good Plot and World Background - That deserves a 5✨

Very good, I hope he finds something to hold on to amidst the madness, the initial insensitivity makes sense. Keep it up
