Spoiler: show

Fountains of Wayne sang the song Stacy's Mom, though i don't recognize the character that was photoshopped into Midori.

[gamebrain89]

I'll add an unnecessary fourth. That was hilarious.

[Greybane]

FIFTHED! Oh yes, that was excellent!

And is that a photo-shopped Asahina Mikuru?

[Magnificate]

The photoshopped character is Nayuki's mother. *Googles* Minase Akiko from Kanon.

[jgkitarel]

*read's story*

[Lthayer3]

I'd like to recommend two fics!
1)The People We've Become

Code: Select all

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3897172/2/The_People_Weve_Become

Summary:

At first, no one could've guessed the consequences of Uzumaki Naruto's disappearance. However, seven years later, Uchiha Sasuke and Haruno Sakura are rogue ninja, Team Seven assembles once more, and they all have secrets. Naruto/Sasuke, Sakura/Lee.

There's a couple of Naruto/Sasuke limes, but the author says when it's gonna happen at the beginning of the chapter.

2)In The Blood

Code: Select all

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6207715/1/In_The_Blood

Summary:

Almost 30 years after the end of the war, Sasuke finds a boy that looks exactly like his brother. He doesn't handle it well. Especially when other lookalikes begin to surface, and all signs point to an old foe being responsible. A mystery. Gen, mostly.

It's 72 chapters long, but it's definitely worth the read.

I'd also like to second Team Tensai.

Youthful Ninja from the Future

Beware the wrath of a budding seal master. Sometimes revenge is best served with a side of Youth. AU from Tsunade retrieval and VotE.

[jgkitarel]

Heh, nice.

Seconding.

[DIT_grue]

I'll third Youthful Ninja from the Future.

[Aldraia Dragonsong]

I second In The Blood! It is a lovely story.

[serbii]

List updated.

[jgkitarel]

Ok, realized that this one from Lord Archive has not been posted here.

Between Deception and Truth is an interesting take on hiding Naruto from the Akatsuki which takes an unusual twist. Keep in mind that the material in this fic is more mature than most, and done by a fanfiction veteran. Very high quality, and known for slow updates. A good red nonetheless and was just updated today.

I'll second it.

[HypoSoc]

Thirding

Great story, confusing at times. I've never seen one like it.

[Lthayer3]

Let's see... What have I run across in the past couple months? Recommending:

Torikaeru by Morta's Priest

On the eve of Uzumaki Naruto's presumed death, former Hokage Namikaze Minato finds himself unexpectedly alive. Enemies take advantage of the confusion and Konoha has to prepare for war, spurring the Third into assembling a remarkable team.

----------

Naruto: Iron Soul by PlaceholderName

Not many people can manage to turn getting blown up and impaled into an advantage. Most people aren't Uzumaki Naruto! Follow Naruto's path as he becomes one with his Iron Soul.

Note: The story is far better than the summary makes it sound.

Code: Select all

[url=http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8157710/1/]Naruto: Iron Soul[/url]

----------

Naruto vs Zombies by Crisis

Crossover between Naruto and Popcap's Plants vs Zombies. Rampant silliness, crazy ninja, undead hordes, and killer vegetables. What more could you want?

Note: A plot also seems to have developed after the initial insanity. Interesting and written well, if rather odd...

Code: Select all

[url=http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7599962/1/]Naruto vs Zombies[/url]

[Tempest Kitsune]

Heh, definitely faving Naruto vs Zombies, it's an awesome read with a good balance of humor and no real bashing. There's some pseudo-bashing on Sasuke, but he actually has it coming and it's believable considering this is the Sasuke from the start of the show.

[Minion]

I think my fic is ready to be nominated.

Konoha no Senkou Arashi

A Fem!Naruto fic that follows the canon storyline, but focuses on the changes made due to Naruto being born a girl, such as Hinata's behavior and outlook.

I've been working with Psalm for about a year now, learning A TON about writing; he even beta's from chapter 7 onward. Wanting to apply what I now know to previous chapters, I went back and revised the grammar and structure of the entire story. It was pretty average before, but it's pretty good after all that. I'm vying for the best Fem!Naruto on the site.

Edit: Also, I would like to second Shinobi Wars.

[Lthayer3]

I'll second Konoha no Senkou Arashi. Actually, I'm kind of surprised it hasn't been recced before now.

[Phht]

I'll second Naruto vs Zombies and Naruto: Iron Soul.

[Tempest Kitsune]

Thirding Naruto vs Zombies.

[jgkitarel]

Thirding Naruto: Iron Soul and fouthing Naruto vs Zombies.

[gamebrain89]

I'll nominate both of the following.

Chasing Yesterday

Code: Select all

[url=http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7897193/1/Chasing_Yesterday]Chasing Yesterday[/url]

Rokudaime Hokage Uchiha Sasuke is a man with nothing beyond duty to the dead. Yet when a second chance comes from the lips of a demon, his battles begin anew... Time Travel/Redo.

The ship in there probably isn't everyone's cup of tea, but I like this one. Well worth giving a shot if you can handle Sasuke/Fem!Naruto.

and

Tempest

Code: Select all

[url=http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8298025/1/]Tempest[/url]

Back in time and armed with years of future knowledge, Sakura is ready to take the world by storm. Except... she's four again, not twelve. Ah well, nobody said she couldn't start a little early. Gen, time travel, AU, Sakuracentric.

It may sound a bit cracky, but its a fun fic, and more serious than you might expect.
