Description

Imagine waking up to find you're not just in another world, but also Naruto's big brother!

And then, there's Kushina as his mom and… Mikoto... and... just read the goddamn book.

What to expect?— Smart Protagonist— Well-developed characters— Plenty of action— A sensible power system— Good explanation of all the powers in the series.— (Understand why things work the way they do.)— Slightly AU, and for good reason.

Happy reading,Starry Sips

I think the story is okay so far but to me it has somewhat glaring issues. One, it moves at snails pace and adds a bunch of superfluous details and interactions that bogs down the story twenty chapters in. I'm not saying he should basically be a genin or something by this point but he should have at least met his mom by now.
Speaking on that, why is his own mom not more...urgent? It's like, she took the word of Mikoto about her son being up and didn't go to see him on her own, wouldn't that be the first thing a loving mother does? A lady with the moniker of "red-hot habanero" especially? He was in a coma for three years and thought to not be waking up anytime soon, to hear that very same son is awake for the first time should have sent her into a sense of urgency to confirm his condition herself.
I was expecting Mikoto to immediately send for someone to urgently go get the boy's own mother, while she stayed with him to comfort him from his awakening from the coma.
Secondly, the most ridiculous thing is that even though this boy has no chakra, no training, and is pretty much weakened due to his circumstances, he was able to get one over on an elite ninja? Wasn't the worst thing since it's said the ninja let his guard down but it still takes a bit of a suspension of disbelief.
Lastly, I don't know if I'm tripping but why is everyone just speaking their thoughts out loud, whether it be the main character, his "aunt" or even the root ninja. Everyone can't seem to just think quietly to themselves in this village where ninjas are aplenty.
I think this is a fine story overall, twenty-one chapters in and I can say grammar is good, character that interact with each other in an organic way (apart from what I listed above), and okay explanations for some character moments that you might not understand.
