The universe gave me another chance after life screwed me over. My second life brought me to a world where people breath fire, walk on water and some people with special eyes that give them bullsh#t powers. Well, I got the gamer ability. And I’m gonna use it to stand at the peak. But it's gonna be a long journey before I reach that summit. SI - MC.

It is a great story, the characters are well fleshed out and not just being cannon fodder, and his slow and steady development is great read

I have been actively following this fic for quite some time and I have to say, I am very impressed.
1. The gamer system is by far incorporated in the best ways possible for a world like Naruto. Most fanfics take the short way out by making MC overpowered very early into the fanfiction. This is a terrible mistake that is carefully avoided here. This has to be, the best gamer system design for naruto in my opinion. I love "Game of Shadows", a very popular fanfiction, but it barely made use of the much coveted system. Eiji there is given a system that is not well incorporated in the world setting.
2. The MC is like an actual person. Many fics try to portray a teenager as braty and arrogant. They are made so in order to move the plot and show vulnerability. Here, the boy is actually very focused, he is not stupid enough to give to impulses. He does mistakes but they are very less in number.
3. I HATE EDGELORDS. Thank god this is not an edgy MC. Many fics tend to give an unnaturally ruthless personality to their main characters, in order to make them cool. These are some of the worst tropes in fanfictions. What we need is neither a hero nor a edgelord. We need a stable grey character who has atleast some integrity in them.
4. I may not be a grammer Nazi but I do feel this is a very well written story.
5. There is a lot of chakra mechanics mentioned here that I really like. (They appear later in the story).

Really good plot and like the writing style. Found some original characters with good build up for them. New take on narutoverse from other fanfics in this category.
Humble request for more frequent updates.

The Story So Far has great pacing and the MC isn't as dumb as a box of rocks like a lot of other stories that I have read I recommend this story 😀

Honestly one of the best fanfics of Naruto world. MC is believable and doesn't turn into an idiot.
Its a very slow burn and some fight/events can take 10+ chapter as the author likes to show the perspective of multiple people. It has few long time skips, like it skips days or weeks but after 250 chapters it feels like barely any time has passed.
If you like detailed explanations than its 5 stars. Personally was 4 stars for me, skipped most of the dungeons parts as they felt semi pointless or over drawn out. Would still highly recommend giving a read.

It's honestly really good, even if the MC is a bit OP by the start of the 'canon' start of Naruto.
Now there is some stuff that could definitely be improved. The way the Author writes long fights, the Flashbacks and random skips to different POVs, along with the MC power scaling.
As for medium duration fights (fights that encompass 5 chapter), there super nice, not to long winded and not to short. The way the Author explains them really makes you feel like your along side them and feel the rush of adrenaline when something happens to the MC or other characters.
The same can't be said for some of the more recent chapters/fights. They feel to long and tedious to read, and are made 10x worse by the constant flashbacks and POV changes. And this is coming from a person who binged this whole story in about 4 days; I read though everything, I don't mind longer explanations when it comes to important stuff, these last chapter have fell like the Author doesn't trust the reader to know about Naruto (the series), the characters and there motives.
The whole graduation day is to long and to boring to read though, the constant POV changes and flashbacks are done is such a terrible manner that it makes is harder to read. There is no fluidity in those chapters, every time you hit a flashback or a POV change you get whiplash.
My advise is to just skip those chapters and jump to chapter 276.
And if your wonder if you'll miss anything important, then don't worry you will not. Every thing gets explained again in then next chapters.
As for the power scaling of the MC, it staring to reach the point of him becoming too OP.
This may be fine considering what most people want from a story like this, slight spoilers up ahead.
Okay, so what I mean is that he is at a level where he can defeat Kakashi easily if he when all out, by the start of Naruto canon. I just hope this wont lead to any making to villains' way more powerful just to composite for the MC strength. He's already pushing some characters towards that. *Cough**Cough* Chapter 279 & 280 *Cough**Cough*

The story is ok the MC isn't reckless or show off and plans ahead, there's only 2 good naruto fan fics on this site and this is one of them I hope the story extends to boruto timeline because most authors stop at Shippuden (I didn't watch boruto but i'd like to see what author would do, I bet some authors would make a better story than the original)
