It wasn't just the fandom. He really didn't like how Part 2 was going.

I really don't know whether or not he's quit although it'd be my guess.

Chapter 8

A new team a, different sensei 2 has been updated with chapter 2.

Chapter 2

This is one of the few good NaruSakuIno storys (and by few I mean like 1/5) and the original is well worth the read.

Reads just like the manga with an upbeat attitude and humor but dosn't skimp on the dark details.

The original was OK but the beginning was so boring.

The NaruSakuIno that I can't wait for an Update is "A Different Sort of Naruto", as a NaruSaku fic it was pretty good and now that the author is adding Ino it's gonna be even better, too bad that later the author is gonna add female Haku. In the forum he posted a scene of what it would be if Naruto, Sakura and Ino would take a walk in the park that I really liked:

Spoiler! --Click here to view--

Naruto had been walking beside Ino and Sakura for a god few minutes now. He had suggested they go to the park to get some air, and the girls agreed. While they were walking toward the park, he suddenly felt a hand wrap around his right hand. Looking to the right, he saw Ino, with a smile on her face, as well as a very cute blush. He smiled at her warmly, and saw both blush and smile grow on the girl's face. He walked like that for a few moments more, before he felt a small flare of chakra from his left. Looking in that direction, he saw Sakura with a mild frown on her face. He didn't fully understand why she was frowning, but knew enough to grab her hand in his own, and smile at her. The blush and smile that rose on her face matched Ino's very closely.

When they had reached the park, Naruto found them a wooden bench that was on a balcony overlooking most of the park. He sat down on it, and it wasn't long before the girls also sat, on either side of him. A few minutes of companionable silence passed, before he suddenly felt a pressure on his left shoulder. Turning his head to see what it was, he saw Sakura leaning against him, her eyes closed. The girl was obviously asleep.

"Long night at the hospital, I guess," Ino said with a sigh, and a sudden smirk, as she rose a bit from her seat, and turned around to nibble at Naruto's ear.

"I-Ino?" He stuttered, "What are you doing?"

"What do you think?" She replied slyly, now moving to nuzzle his neck.

"I-" He began, fighting the goosebumps that were caused by the blonde's ministrations, "I think you're going to wake Sakura-chan up, if you keep going like that."

Ino raised her head to kiss his lips. "Let her wake up," She said sultrily, "Maybe she'd like to join in."

Naruto's mouth would have dropped to the floor, if a certain blonde bombshell wasn't occupying it. And through all of it, Sakura still hadn't woken up.

ive seen quite a few good writers quit because of part 2, most of them because they didnt like narutos growth compared to sasuke. Ah well.

[MagusKyros]

I can't blame Geno. Why waste time on something that you don't like. It's why I don't spend that much time anymore in Naruto. I still read the manga, but only so if my predictions come true.

[Lizardo221]

Just read set me free. I'm a little wierded out reading that, but maybe in a good way. Just one problem after another, can't the guy just be happy ahhh.

Chapter 12

Also I found a cool time-travel fic called The Kyuubi's Gift

[Radon]

Between The Lines has just been updated with chapter 18. This beautiful, epic NaruSaku story has come to a close and is filled with humor and romance and will no doubt leave a fluffy warmth in your chest that won't go away.

Theres hints of SasuSaku, but it's one sided on the Sasu side, and adds a rich depth and realistic edge that is lost on most Fanfiction. It's manages to be dark, exciting and fluffy all at the same time and this last chapter is one of the best I've read. A definite read for anyone interesting.

Between The Lines: Chapter 18

[3171990]

i like these stories, they are a bit sad, but i think the author will ultimately work out a narusaku pairing. imo i think they are well written for a fps style story, of course there are better out there, but i like these even though they are a bit sad imo.

http://www.fanfictio...071/1/Giving_up

i pm the author sometimes, and apparently he's new to the ff biz, lol i think he's doing a good job no?

[Lizardo221]

Hmm, Giving Up seems good though I've only glanced through parts of it. It Suits Him Well is starting off quite good but will be aweful if its just 10 or so straight chapters of flash backs and will be unreadable if it actually kills off Naruto. I'm ok with a flash back here or there but doing one every chance you get can just become bad writing.

-Third edit ahhhh.
Ok the writer is good at using the right wording, keeping a very well structured piece, yet I find the characters and plot to be more off. Sakura seems to act a bit to harsh at times though it can work if done right. The second story is really hard for me to understand how this could be NaruSaku (this Sakura must patch things up with Naruto, give up her now present feelings for Sasuke, and fall in love with Naruto. Thats a real tall order if you ask me) and the first is very close to becoming one of the more depressing pieces i've had to read. All and all, these could end up full of "PNJ" or be very well done, whether thats a happy or dark ending.

[Coulomb]

Giving Up-

I've been viewing more and more stories that start out with Naruto bringing back Sasuke almost in a near death state. Then when Sakura figures out that Naruto beat Sasuke to a bloody pulp. She tells Naruto to go to hell.

It's a plot device that's starting to bring my piss to a boil. What really gets me is that they always turn Naruto into a spineless weeping crybaby. I know he doesn't want to hurt Sakura's feelings, but come on! There's only so much a man can take before he snaps.

It suits him well-

Well this one isn't that bad, but I don't like how he protrays Naruto first-person wise. The author did use half decent word usage though. The rest is like opening a can of soup in outer space, it's just all over the place.

It is sad isn't it? Usually it used to be NaruHina and SasuSaku fanfics that started off like that, or a fic that comprised of Sakura bashing. It's sad to see that our very own NaruSaku fics are becoming like that as well, and it's a sad concept to use anyway.

There was that other story where Sakura is Naruto's fiance in the first chapter, but when Sasuke comes back she's all over him instantly. I sometimes wonder about the authors of FF.net. I don't expect them to be professional, but most of the stories there are completely nonsensical.

New fic:Broken Promise from my hero

[drag-eart]

Alright A Soul's Salvation is getting more into Naru/Saku now. Finally!!

A Soul's Salvation - it's on its 10th chapter. Check it out it's well written and has twist and turns that left me speechless. Oh Tsunade-baa-chan you are a tricky woman. Nah, but really it's a great story, probably one of the best Naru/Saku on the AFF site. Make sure you leave a review, it allows anonymous so please show some love and get her to update faster and continue her fic.

-

This is an okay story, warning lemon, if you are looking for the kind of style of Geno Calamari, it's not written like that here, but really it's a good story. What he /she was going for, the theme I mean is "you don't really know when your time will come so treasure everything you have and cherish it," he says. Well something like that.

Warnings:a 'BIT' cheesy, LEMON, NC-17

The Unfortunate Ending

Hopefully he writes a sequel to this if not, well to put it simply I'm really sad and 'a bit' disturbed(emphasis heavily on 'a bit').....you'll see.

Enjoy

[Lizardo221]

Ahhhh, don't bring up the second one again, I was blocking that story out of my mind. Reading it made me feel a little disturbed and seeing it again isn't helping.

[Radon]

A Soul's Salvation is finally moving in the right direction, altho very slowly... Something tells me they got tired of beating around the bush for 10 chapters like they have been doing. Was fun to see Sasuke get served

[Gnosismaster]

Yeah, I liked that chapter as well.

[Lizardo221]

Ok well I can't take much more of the gambit. Its not that its bad, its that it seems to lack all NaruSaku, meaning the author lied, and is a NaruIno. All NaruIno fans can enjoy this but I would take the story off all NaruSkau lists for now.../cry it seems that the writer turned Sakura into a cripple, how harsh.

On a better note, Trail of Freedom is moving along nicely.

[Gnosismaster]

He and I talk every now and then.

I think that it will be NaruSakuIno but not a love triangle, just NaruSaku and NaruIno.
