I like the battle short or not

While I like the story so far I'm curious as to weather the other two where chosen for a specific reason. Did the others do medical scans of all upcoming graduates to see if any one else has a magic network and manipulated the right time and year for him to graduate with him? I mean even if there older they would still go into the first year with him as the barrier would stop them from getting owls from any magic school till they cross over. And while there team leader might not have magic Im sure they can find a reason for him to be there. Maybe extra security in the premise it's to protect the boy hero as he comes back into the magic world. Or even as a hand to hand specialist he was supposedly learning from while in hiding.

While I didn't vote for an affinity type I kind of wish I had. But just started reading this story today so it's to late. I did want to say I disagree with what you say at the top of the next chapter though. I see Harry as a five elements kind of guy. While lightning is a given as it represents both his flying and quiditch playing style. Strike fast and hard. Fire would represent both his passion for magic as well as his shining light aka beacon of hope that he represents to the others. Wind is a constant motion it can't be contained it can't be held back it can only be guided or directed. This represents his magic is it to us a force that can only be guided or directed but never truly contained or blocked. Earth sadly represents his childhood. Maybe not in this story but in canon at least. The confinement of his cupboard while trapped in there as punishment yet the safety of the fact none of his family can get to him while in there either. And lastly water. Not sure the last time you seen rapids or a waterfall or he'll even two glaciers crashing into each other. Water is anything but calm or boring. I'd say water represents him the most. Constantly changing be it shape form consistency or even direction. Harry has to change his path a few times to navigate to his final waters. He has to decide if he took the steady easy path or the twisty turny winding path. He has to be slippery as water itself at times. And felt cold as ice others.

xxxxx Kudos xxxxx : )

Hope the Naruto arc end soon, want to see the Harry Potter arc ! Keep up the good work :)

Nice chapter. I like your Ocs please feel free to increase their importance. Especially Atsushi after What he Just Explained.

Thanks for the chapter.

I've always loved the idea of war-weary too tired Kakashi as a Hokage. Plus, i really do think he'd make a good one. He is, esssentially, the strongest Shinobi in all of Konoha, excepting the rare few: Tsunade, Orochimaru, Naruto & Sasuke. And none of them really fit the bill... and I think Tsunade was more than ready to pass the hat after her tenure.

I think i like Atsushi, so make him more regular or put him in another story he is interesting!

The other ones are not so fleshed out except Haru’s team.

About Kakashi I think the same, at least Tsunade make it in time, Kakshi is like Jiraiya not Hokage material.

They feel real enough to get me more interested in the story. To stay with this . It would be interesting to see them follow Haru to England and see what goes on there .

Well as I understand Tsunade stopped being Hokage because her age was catching up with her, and Naruto wasn't ready. I imagine Kakashi was the next logical choice for similar reasons Tsunade was selected. As if you recall, after the Pain Arc which left Tsunade in a Coma, Kakashi was recommended to be her stand in, as he was the son of the White Fang (uh, I'm having RWBY Flashbacks now) And he was mentored by Minato, who was mentored by Jiraiya, who was mentored by Hiruzen. And he probably would have been the stand in if not for Danzo's manipulation and intervention. And After Danzo was exposed, it was going to once again fall to Kakashi only for Tsunade to awaken before it it could be official. Also I recall during the Pain Arc when Jiraiya was asked about who could become next Hokage, then Jiraiya said the only person with the potential other than Naruto was Kakashi.

Now to explain my thoughts on OCs. I for one am alright with OCs. However, make sure you give them a solid personlity, motivations, and a good backstory to justify their existence, like what you just did with Atsushi. Explaining his dreams, his reasons for idolizing Naruto, a bit of his backstory and what could have happened. You executed that very well, and is the kind of thing I like when people write OC's.
