How is the paper bomb kunai in Naruto thrown like a normal kunai? Like, wouldn’t the paper bomb on the kunai cause it to fly all wonky? It’s like trying to fly a plane that is missing a rudder on one wing, it shouldn’t be that easy! Ya know?
You can check the answer of the people under the question at Quora “kunai knife paper“
Two reasons:
One is that they throw it with such force that it flies stable
Or one of those random s*** that shinobi do until their power is explained like this

in this case there is an excellent metaphor. “In front of absolute power nothing matters”
So, the point is, when thrown kunai’s are so fast that they make big holes in victim’s body. now, kunai are a lot bigger than bullet and the depth of damage is same or in a lot of gun’s case, Kunai are thrown deeper. So, what does it mean?? It means, Kunai are as fast as bullets, if not faster. Also, ninjas like kakashi, asuma could coat with chakra and throw which gives more speed and penetration pwoer.
The ponint is, if you tie a paper on a bullet and fire it, will the paper drag the bullet down?? No, because, the drag brought by paper is negligeble to the speed brought by bullet. It might change the tragectory by a little but it won’t affect much. The efficiency of the bullet would still be 100% or 99.99999999999999999%.
So, paper tags don’t affect the speed direction of kunai.
