7* Recommended by: Dellanotte
8* ''Status'': Complete
9* ''Pairings'': Neji/Tenten, Naruto/Hinata
10* ''Synopsis'': "Due to a deathbed promise, inexperienced Neji ends up with an instant son. Enter Tenten, the longlost teammate who poses as a birdbrain nanny for her jounin mission, beginning a tale of love, betrayal, and stinky diapers."
11* ''Comments'': How this thing manages to not be a total CrackFic is beyond me, and yet... Okay, the notion of the ninja knowing of [[WesternAnimation/SpongebobSquarepants Spongebob]] is patently absurd, but oh well. There actually is a serious plot, too, but it's sometimes easy to forget when in close proximity to [[MindScrew Tenten's cover story]]. [[TheComicallySerious Poor Neji]]...

The mysterious Sarada insists she's a shinobi from the Hidden Leaf trying to rescue her teammates. When the team discovers she possesses a Sharingan, things become even more unbelievable. [Part of the Legacy of Fire Series]"
19* ''Comments'': An elaborate melding of pre-Shippuden and Boruto in (literally) a big ball of timey-wimey dimension-mushing...stuff. Quite a fun ride.

27* ''Comments'': This oneshot presents an epilogue that's almost too happy and perfect... which only makes Naruto's never ending happy facade all the more heartbreaking. [[{{Tearjerker}} You will cry]].

31* Recommended by @/{{Orangeninja101}}
32* ''Status'': Dormant
33* ''Pairings'': Canon pairings.
34* ''Synopsis'': By the time they realized they were wrong, it was too late. Now Sasuke is missing and neither Naruto nor Sakura know what might have happened to him. Amidst the chaos of a revamped Chūnin Exams, and under pressure from his peers, Naruto finds himself unable to go to Sasuke's aid. It may be up to his son, Boruto, to lead the charge against a new threat growing in the darkness.
35* ''Comments'': The story is a nascent addition to the Fanfiction.net line-up, starring Boruto and the next generation of Naruto characters! I only just started reading it and I very much enjoy the set-up and plot as its been presented so far! If you want to see a Boruto story from a unique perspective, take a look at this brand new sequel to the ''Naruto'' series!

39* ''Status'': Complete
40* ''Synopsis'': There had been something like an understanding between them once, he thinks; the potential for something more. But with the memory of her shaking kunai and his maniacal laughter between them, neither can help but wonder if it is too late to go back.
41* ''Comments'': This is what happens after the War with Madara. Sasuke is back with the village, sorta, and Sakura is [[spoiler: his attourny.]] It mainly focuses on Team 7's relationship after the war, the problems from the begining of their sorta friendship and the after effects of Sakura [[spoiler: getting mindraped by Madara.]] It's little bit slow paced but it's very well written and definitely worth a read.

52''[[http://archiveofourown.org/works/243556 Doing It ANBU]]''by karanguni
53* Recommended by: KomodoClassic
54* ''Status'': Oneshot.
55* ''Synopsis'': Rehabilitating Sasuke was supposed to be easier than fighting a war. Three months, sixteen missions, and an uncountable number of attempts on his sanity after taking on ANBU captaincy, Sai was beginning to understand where Yamato-taicho's creepy eyes originated from: let Kakashi take you at unawares too often and, eventually, your face began to stick that way.
56* ''Comments'': Possibly belongs under AU (I don't know, I haven't finished the anime.) Centers on Sai, who becomes ANBU captain and remains a bit dubious to Naruto's redemption plan for Sasuke.

78* ''Synopsis'': Shinobi learn to be ambidextrous early on, but losing half your arm still throws you off balance.

83* Recommended by indigohalf, [=ShirouHokuto=] @/{{Electroninja}}, @/{{valbinooo}}, Kesali
84* ''Status'': Complete
85* ''Synopsis:'' 27 years after the end of the Fourth Shinobi World War, Sasuke has gotten married, started a family, and is about as good at it as you'd expect, when he meets a young boy who strikingly resembles a long-dead Itachi. Later, a red-haired kid appears at the gates of the village, demanding to be taught ninjutsu. Naruto hits it off with the kid alarmingly quickly [[spoiler: when it turns out they're related - suggesting that the Itachi look-alike may not be a coincidence, either]]. The fic is a slowly unfurling mystery firmly grounded in the setting of Konoha and full of familiar faces-- canon characters and their children who all have problems of their own.
86* ''Comments:'' This fic has a large cast and all of them are believable. The dynamics within Sasuke's family are shockingly realistic, and the [=OCs=] are all unique and written with loving care. Sasuke's youngest son, Inou, has stolen my heart already and I'm pretty sure he's not even particularly relevant to the plot. The fic is mystery with lots of seemingly unrelated pieces, and it's not done being written yet, but there's definitely something going on with people who look like people who are supposed to be dead.

91* Recommended by Sebazu, Frodo Lives, Kraesil
92* ''Status'': Dead
93* ''Synopsis'': Akatsuki lies broken and Naruto hates the world. Where does he go from here? Follows Naruto after Akatsuki extracts Kyuubi from him.[[note]] The hows and whys of his subsequent resurrection are not explained in any detail, but it's made quite clear as of now he's not quite human and not quite jinchuuriki either.[[/note]] A mostly insane Naruto remembers Haku and ends up single-handedly running an orphanage for bloodline children in Mizu- but in a country prone to civil wars, things aren't quite that simple. Especially when said orphanage is home to several promising shinobi with no allegiance to any of the preexisting fractions.
94* ''Comments'': Just the way it portrays naruto's gradually recovering sanity makes it worth.
95** Brilliant, brilliant fic. Interesting style, and excellent writing. Dead, but well worth a read.

102* ''Comments'': I'm a sucker for the amnesia trope, and this one does it particularly well. Everyone is confused and heart broken and generally a mess, but maybe there's hope in the end?

111* ''Synopsis'': Upon returning home from his failed mission to retrieve Sasuke and finding about Jiraiya's death, Naruto gains new responsibilities and a new set of priorities when a girl shows up on his doorstep pregnant.
112* ''Comments'': This fic covers Naruto's struggle to raise his daughter and to keep her and Konoha safe from Akatsuki over 8+ years. Naruto matures and grows into his power as a father, as a jinchuriki, as a teacher, and as Konoha's greatest defender. The fic has an appropriately epic feel as it covers more of Naruto's life than the original manga, and the author tells the story of its characters' growth well.

119* ''Comments'': Starts from the academy, and then quickly picks up after that. The fic has been praised for its fight scenes and for the original characters.

124* ''Status'': Complete
125* ''Pairings'': Shikamaru/Temari
126* ''Synopsis'': A ''Naruto'' futurefic that is best summed up with the word "epic". It's got a large cast -- many of the main characters of the current ''Naruto'' continuity now all have three-man genin teams of their own, and there are characters from the other hidden villages.
127* ''Comments'': What's striking about it is both the quality of the characters -- all of them are believable and deep -- and the sheer length of the thing -- it's over 300,000 words. The action is quality, and the characterization of [=non-OCs=] is spot-on. Though it's difficult to follow the sporadic updates, and next to impossible to actually keep track of all the various plotlines, it's highly recommended. Best in [[ArchiveBinge large doses.]]

134* ''Synopsis'': Decades after the end of the series, Naruto is now the leader of the Village Hidden in the Spring, - a place full of alcoholics and missing ninja - illegally, of course. Sakura comes to tell him that Tsunade is recalling him for the Chunin Exams. HilarityEnsues.
135* ''Comments'': A comedic story, with darker undertones. It has quite a few [=OCs=], namely Sakura's genin team and everybody in the Spring village except Naruto and Koyuki Kazahana. Naruto is also something of a sadistic JerkAssStu, but it's usually played for laughs.

143* ''Comments'': A well-written romance fic for a relationship that gets off to a very rocky start for the two. The story takes place almost entirely from Sakura's point of view for the first half and very well portrays how frustrating it is to try to read past Sasuke's stoic facade of apathy. Completed, with epilogue.

150* ''Synopsis'': Having finally settled down with Sakura, Sasuke has grown comfortable with the "boring" life he leads as a father and husband. Things with the Uchiha are never simple however as Sasuke's past comes back to haunt him and threatens to destroy his family...
151* ''Comments'': It's a very well-written and intricately plotted romance/mystery story. The story is entirely from Sasuke's point of view and though some may argue that his characterization is initially a little OOC especially when he's around his family, I found that it was an appropriate maturation of his character. Don't worry, he's still the same ''Badass''.

Upon awakening, he meets Sakura and Sasuke's eldest daughter, Uchiha Momo, who decides that Naruto, the man her parents respect most, is the man for her. WIP
167* ''Comments:'' The story starts with Naruto telling his children about how him and their mother got together. At first Momo is only 12, but it's mostly one-sided romance until she gets older. Has some fan art.

172* ''Status'': Dead
173* ''Pairings'': Naruto/Tayuya
174* ''Synopsis'': Determined not to have anyone sacrifice themselves for his sake ever again, Naruto leaves Konoha after the incident with Hidan and Kakuzu, and makes a living off collecting the bounties of other missing-nins. Along the way, he just might discover a new nindo to follow along with new precious people to protect, and that this new purpose was his true calling all along.
175* ''Comments'': An absolutely amazing fic that really sucks you in and is back from the dead. The author does a good job with Naruto and Tayuya's relationship and you can see that the two care deeply for each other, even though they haven't made anything official and Naruto's somewhat of a ladies' man. I really like the way Tayuya's portrayed since one gets the sense that this is what her canon self could have been like had she found people important to her. The story also contains lots of swearing (not all of it from Tayuya).

196* ''Status'': Complete
197* ''Synopsis'': It's been almost two years since the war and Konoha is at peace- until an untouchable stranger shows up and very nearly succeeds in assassinating Konoha's Sixth Hokage. With every sign pointing towards a dead man as the aggressor, Team 7 has to fight to keep their makeshift family intact. [Kakashi & Team 7-centric. Background canon pairings, eventually canon divergent]
198* ''Comments'': Seriously one of my all time favorite authors and stories in the fandom. Hiiraeth captures Kakashi perfectly and gives the most believable portrayal of Kakashi as Hokage that I have ever read. The writing is professional quality, the story is intriguing and well plotted, and Team 7 really gets to shine. I also highly recommend the sequel [[https://archiveofourown.org/works/12342015/chapters/28069245 Fool's Gold]], still updating.
