How come Naruto was never able to realize the exploit of a kage bunshin?

He was always using Kage bunshins for a very long time but he even admits that he didn't notice that the KBs memories end up getting felt by the original once dispersed ( ).

He would have been too broken if that had happened.

Naruto being a user of Shadow Clones doesn't mean he actually know the pipes around it.

In the movie,he used Kage Bunshin before he even learnt it later on in the manga.Therefore nothing surprises me about that as I have seen how far plot stretches things

I always wondered this considering Naruto must've made thousands of clones in part 1, yet never noticed.

So either Kishi was just looking for an easy way to accelerate Naruto's training and decided to add this ability to the KB, or Naruto just really never noticed.

Because genius-status was reserved for Uchiha clan members only. Uzumakis were always doomed to be fodders with inferior brains/fighting ability.

Naruto=spam for hours/days/years on end until he's successful
Sasuke=Tries something once, instantly becomes a master.

I could give you several reasons but the reason that would make the most sense is Plot.

Imagine Naruto had learned that, and trained during the time skip like that. He would have left Sasuke in the dust. He would have already been Hokage by then.

Everything is plot.

He's used it so often but didn't realize gaining experiences of his clones. Don't see how something so glaringly obvious wouldn't be noticed.

Which movie was this?

Indeed, Sasuke was always the genius prodigy.

Because he never used Kagebunshins and didn't know what they were doing...

*Ignoring the bait for a second and answering seriously here*
Being oblivious to the obvious is part of Naruto's comical aspect and personality.

He never used it for training before. If you are in a battle situation and all of your clones focus on one enemy how would you notice it in the heat of the moment? When it comes to extreme situations you do not think, you act - your body moves by itself - automatism and instinct.
