Seconded by Dune. It's a surprisingly good take on the "Naru is a senshi" idea, and it's finally finished!

If Naoko Takeuchi suddenly threw away Chibiusa right after Sailor Moon S, started writing for an older audience, and expanded the number of people in on the secret from six to sixty. Oh, and Ami goes from Covert Pervert to Suddenly Sexual. That, and Mary Sue Always Triumphs.
FanficRecs Comment by Roo
Thirded by Roo, though with a warning that the fic does get a little long-winded sometimes; I found myself skimming large parts of the later chapters just so they'd get on with it. The Americanisms sometimes get a little grating, as does the over-reliance on girls hitting their boyfriends/love interests because the authors think it's funny. Oh, and since the fic has like fifty main characters, some of them tend to get lost in the shuffle — most notably Usagi, who gets increasingly Out Of Focus after the first few chapters, and in the later parts of the fic is fully Demoted To Extra. All that said, though, it is an inventive and for the most part well-written story that takes a lot of Sailor Moon fanfiction cliches (Naru as a Senshi, romantic pairings of the four Senshi and the four Generals, Luna and Artemis turning human, and too many others to mention) and does them well — often by adding a new and unique spin on them.
