...I feel like the first thing Takuma should have done was learn exactly how severe Konoha is on the drug scene? And for Mary Jane specifically? It's obviously not free use with disguised sellers/mules around, but knowing exactly how high a priority (and the consequences for getting caught) it would be to law enforcement (that are ALSO Ninja) is kinda important for any real risk assessment.
Also, bloody hell, advancement is harsh. Like, to the point it's extremely understandable why there are so many missing-nin (basically every low-rank nin that doesn't have enough of a brain to realize the threat of hunter-nin or long term consequences). Almost unbelievably so? Takuma is a full time Genin with minor merits, and a supposedly well-paying side gig of ring fighting (which HAS to be lucrative or it's not worth the fairly high time and risk commitments), and now drug dealing (which IRL is a very shit payout for the time and risk taken on the bottom level, but Ninja Villages break all kinds of convention and presumably are wealthier and harder to supply, so the pay out is just 'okay').
And yet, with all this, he can only get D-rank jutsu infrequently, and C-rank with months of investment and no emergencies (and possibly years if he were a rule abiding normie.) It honestly seems like less support then Konoha should be giving their Ninja. The ones that bring in money from their missions, and protect the Village in times of conflict. Are things different in war-time? Because as is, it just looks like all the ones without extra family training and libraries would have to go fight with the Academy Three and maybe a couple extra techniques, possibly dying and losing years of investment. While Clan and hereditary Ninja could do more...but there are fewer of them, and leaning on them to pull all/most of the weight in war-time is a great way to use that resource up and permanently lose knowledge and expertise (see the Senju).
Clan influence is a thing, but they all already have a unique gimmick and (mostly) a significant amount of resources in infrastructure, businesses, and stored wealth. They don't really need to do shit to stay on top besides not lose too much jockeying with other Clans (not that they do much of that at all), and not piss off the Hokage too much.or maybe it's in the clans interest to make sure its members have an advantage politics is not always about what is logical but what is best for your interests
