Speaking of Chunin in the series, Can someone explain to me how
shikamaru became a chunin when he forfeited but Naruto didn't and he actually beat his opponent? Did I miss something back then?

He used his brain, unlike all the other morons.

I think
The hokage was impressed by his intelligence and cunning in his fight against Temari
anyway.

Shikamaru was able to see the bigger picture in that he couldn't defeat the next opponent because he had used up all his chakra. Basically, Shikamaru was seen as a squad leader and tactician responsible for other ninja.

It was decided that shikamaru was the only one who possessed both leadership qualities and intelligence, rather than just brute force, which were the requirements to become a chuunin...

I see. Makes sense. Thank you.

Shikamaru is a strategic genius. He won the fight when he secured the target. Naruto didn't show the same qualities to be a leader. He more or less won via brute force.

Since a chunin has to lead missions, they have to be more than strong. They have to be smart about the situation they're in. Fighting to the bitter end and possibly risking your teammate's life a good leader does not make.
