I thought what made Kakashi unique was that he had never passed anyone who took his test, not that he had a test. Could be wrong, though.


The only other "test" we see is Guy getting into a sparring session with his team, where I can't remember him ever stipulating that he'd send anybody back to the academy. Getting sent back to the academy right after leaving it is pretty rare.

At the jonin (is that what theyre called?) meeting, it definitely looked like there were only nine rookie genin, so something happened to the other 18...


Probably because only those nine genin were taking the test that from that class. In general, the show tends to be pretty weak when it comes to very minor supporting characters.

So if they dont get sent back to the academy, and theres not enough for a full team, then occasionally 1-2 graduates have to take a year off and hope theres an off number of graduates next time. Sucks. Would also suck if you passed all the tests but theres 28 kids in your class who all passed so you get left behind. Would suck super hard if you graduated, got your headband, then found out two days later that the class clown who was held back twice did some extra credit and youre not actually a ninja anymore lmao.


afaik, the classes don't seem to run a full year like that, plus because ninja are always dying they could place more experienced genin on a rookie genin squad. Remember that a lot of ninja stay genin forever. You meet some of them later on. And keep in mind that genin can actually be pretty powerful, the chunin rank isn't necessarily an indication of strength.
