** The story really gels into a solidly written work when a presumably-dead Naruto shows up on Suna's doorstep with a few holes in his memory and a [[RealityEnsues surprisingly realistic case of mild post-traumatic stress disorder]]. We catch a glimpse of a deeper and more rounded Naruto as the series progresses - difficulty communicating his deepest thoughts due to his lack of social skills, a deeply buried but still present anger at his childhood mistreatment and neglect, trouble shaking the belief that his current life and relationships are one bad day away from taking him back to a friendless and lonely existence... but he's still our smiling determinator, even if it takes some occasional reassurance from his loved ones that he is okay. And that is a guiding light, that even when relationships are thrust into the Looney Tunes-esqe actuality of a shonen anime, they are handled in a relatively realistic manner.

** griever222: Well, as the comic may now be back from being a DeadFic, I trow in my opinion. While the art is terrific, and the scenes which are meant to be funny, are hilarious, the comic has some problems. Most notably, in the beginning of the comic, Minato, (probably) [[UnintentionallyUnsympathetic unintentionally]] can come of as at least a very [[ParentalNeglect neglectful]] towards Naruto, for example being harsh and unsympathetic towards Naruto, saying Naruto has no change passing the Genin exam, despite the fact Minato knows it's not Naruto's fault, and not in the slightest defending his sons's honor when Sasuke mocks Naruto. Another problem is that Naruto(The Kyuubi?) somewhat TookALevelInDumbass (while Naruto was BookDumb, he had from the begining a certain guile, Naruto/Kyuubi lacks in this version) compared to canon Naruto, possibly because of CharacterExaggeration / {{Flanderization}} from the author. With author also arguably [[TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot Wasted a Good Plotline]], as the biggest difference in terms of personality of this Naruto, from the canon one, is the above described Flanderization, despite him being the reincarnated Kyuubi.

* ''Synopsis'': The story takes place at some unspecified time, but presumably shortly after the conclusion of the manga (at that time the manga was published, so expect some things left out like [[spoiler: the Akatsuki or bonding with [[SealedEvilInACan his demon fox]]]], but he seems to be trying to include these as the comic goes on). During a mission to rescue a group of prisoners from a trio of rogue ninjas, Hinata is knocked over the edge of a cliff and is [[RescueRomance rescued by Naruto at the last moment]], touching off a realization of just how special they are to each other and--, you know what? You've all heard this synopsis before, so I'll move right along. While it may start off as a standard Shipping story, it ''very'' quickly evolves into a full-on OriginalFlavor story in which the rogue ninjas mentioned above are ''not'' one-shot characters and are plotting a massive attack on Konoha. Little by little, their plots, motivations, and personalities are revealed, as are those of the traditional characters, in a story that rivals anything else on this page and surpasses quite a few.

* ''Status'': Ongoing

* ''Comments'': [[https://patreon.com/link2time Here's his Patreon]]! Link is taking on the whole project himself, doing the entire reboot. His plan is to keep this going for years to come. He's confirmed that there will be a much greater focus on the relationship and bond between team 7 and that the Masked Man is not Obito! There's more on the FAQ on his DeviantArt Page.

* ''Synopsis'': Naruto is now Hokage of Kohoha for his heroics during the war. Sasuke is now a troll who delights in infuriating Naruto at every opportunity. The only thing Naruto hates more than Sasuke's mouth is all the paperwork of his new job. Everything changes in a big way when battling a mysterious woman. She infects him with the "Twisted Jutsu", a [[GenderBender Jutsu that switches the victim's gender]], among other things. Now Naruto has to deal with the "Joys" of being a [[AttractiveBentGender Drop-dead gorgeous]] woman, including periods, the mood swings that come with periods, pads, bras, and desperate perverts. On top of that he still has his duties as Hokage, emerging romantic drama with Hinata, AND has to track down the woman who infected him before his (or her?) condition becomes permanent! And somehow Sasuke is even more of an annoying asshole than usual. Still, it's nothing Naruto Uzumaki can't handle Right? [[ThisIsGonnaSuck Right???]]

* ''Synopsis'': Naruto Akiden (NARUTO 秋伝 Lit. Naruto Autumn Legend) is a professionally made fan reboot of Masashi Kishimoto's manga Naruto. It is a self published work, known commonly in the manga industry as a "doujinshi".
The entire Naruto-verse has been deconstructed and rebuilt. You can expect everything to be changed by varying degrees, from raw chakra mechanics to character motivations to the basic history of Naruto's world. Some things will be similar to canon while others will be totally new. Likewise, several arcs will feel familiar while others will feel fresh. Chapters are between 30-40 pages in length and are posted monthly. Links to current and past chapters will be given a channel on this Discord, on the subreddit, and on the Patreon.

* ''Comments'': It's very well done. The WillTheyOrWontThey makes sense when you're dealing with Kakashi, who has no idea what his emotions even are, and Obito, who's been bottling various things up since the rock slide. The art is is also great and really gets the characters' emotions across. Yes, for those who love sticking to canon there's some minor FridgeLogic about how the Kyuubi attack still happens, but overall it's a great read nonetheless.

* ''Comments'': While the humor in the comic can be hit and miss (some of the strips won't even get a chuckle out of you) it manages to be funny most of the time, and absolutely adorable at all times. Plus the fanservice isn't an unwelcome addition either.

** Let me tell you a story... When I first heard of and began reading NaruHina Chronicles, I thought it was boring, difficult to read and the way it was sketched didn't impress me... But then, months later after more false starts, I was looking at a Gaara/Matsuri group on Website/DeviantART when I noticed that the pairing seemed to be included in the comic... And so I decided to give it one more chance... And I was HOOKED!!! It's true that it's a bit slow at the beginning, but over time, the story was so deep and intricate but still made sense, the romance - with both Naruto and Hinata and the secondary couples - was done great, the characters were kept in character and the OC's didn't fall into Sue-dom, the plot twists were excellent, and eventually, the little nitpicks I had about it at first disappeared that I couldn't help BUT love it! It was no longer boring, the sketches appealed to me and I got used to the way it was supposed to be read. This is by far the best fan comic for Naruto I've ever read! And it's a LONG read too, so be prepared for it to take up a LOT of your time!
