The Yamanaka have no Kekkei Genkai. Their Mind Jutsu are Hiden (Hidden / Secret Jutsu) like the Nara's Shadow abilities and the Akimichi's Size-Change Jutsus. The Gentle Fist and FURY are also hiden jutsu. It means that it can be taught to anyone but the clans / people keeping the mechanics of the jutsu secret are often born with a disposition to those jutsu.
EG- Anyone can use gentle fist, but the Byakugan helps make it more dangereous.

Why does it feel like an underwhelming end?

This was so sweet! I love the Itachi centric and don’t worry about there being less fighting. I loved every second of it and you really got Itachi’s character as well. I’m actually a little jealous how well you did this.

I love this story, and I hope to never forget it...this is such a sweet AU outcome of what could've been. And I thank you so much for what you did for us Uchiha fans!

You have my sincerest gratitude and thanks,

Star.

love it!

Hi! I love, love, LOVE this fic omg— the amount of times I've reread it is honestly off the charts. The suspense is so well done, and I adore your Itachi characterization. Seriously, thank you so so much for writing this!

As it's currently looking like might be shutting down soon, (based on the lack of visible moderation team/admins, no one responding to help emails— it's explained better in this post/648800590875557889/pingo1387-beatrice-otter-sacchariwrites) I was wondering if there was any way you were considering re-uploading your fics on another fanfiction website? (Or if you've already done so haha?)

Anyway, thank you so so much for writing and sharing this!

My heart cried for this.

A greatest what-if and could've-been (aside from Itachi's time travel). As Sarutobi once said on his stand regarding the coup, there are other plans to prevent the massacre. Ths made my heart cry for Itachi. Such a man he was, embodying the meaning of a true shinobi. Here, even though it's a fic, Itachi's happy.

Thank you! For writing this.

Please continue! I really love this story! I'm cheering you on! Good luck! Hope you have a great day! ️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️

Ooo

I love it!

I kind of like it. It’s well written but I don’t like some parts of the plot. They make sense but it’s just personal preference, I guess.
I didn’t like Itachi telling the Hokage everything. I generally don’t like that in reincarnation/time travel/si/etc. Fics. I prefer for it to remain a secret, and I didn’t like that so few Uchihas survived, because while I do get your reasoning, I feel like it’s only marginally better than the massacre - only 6 more people survived. I also don’t feel it was fair for those Uchiha who were unable to betray their clan - family is obviously much closer than your village, so I see why they couldn’t turn on them. I feel they still got the short end of the straw despite Itachi’s efforts. I think it would’ve also been more effective if you had Itachi/other Uchiha reacting to having to fight each other, since they are family, and they’ve known each other for their whole lives. By this I’m referring to the pro-coup uchihas, who you didn’t really humanise, although they are in the wrong. I personally don’t like how easily Itachi was able to spy on his own family like that - although I get that’s just how he is, I don’t get it. Even though I would try to convince them that they are wrong I guess I’ve not experienced that kind of patriotism that would be fostered in ninja villages.

Does Izumi Uchiha stay alive? Itachi GF. Also shisui was loyal to the clan.

So..I don't know if anyone is going to answer, but I have a question. Why does Itachi said that he killed Shisui? I remember he committed suicide after he gave Itachi his eye. Right? Or is simply Itachi feeling guilt and that makes him believe that he killed Shisui?

(Forgive my English, I'm still learning...)

Itachi Uchiha time travel? Color me intrigued.

A beautiful and realistic interpretation of a Itachi time travel fic. :)
