Revision as of 02:30, 25 June 2016

These are recommendations made by Tropers for Naruto Doujinshi and fan comics, all of which have to be signed to stay on the page. Feel free to add a fanfic of your own to the list, but remember to use the template found here.

You can also add to the current recommendations if you want. Refrain from posting Conversation in the Main Page though; that goes in the discussion page.

The Naru-Hina Chronicles by Matt Wilson

Recommended by Clendy82
Pairings: Naruto/Hinata, along with most of the other standard fanon pairings
Synopsis: The story takes place at some unspecified time, but presumably shortly after the conclusion of the manga. 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 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 Original Flavor 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.

Narutard Theater by kivae

Recommended by Malchus
Pairings: The artist focuses mostly on NaruHina, SasuSaku, SasuNaru (for laughs), NejiTen, and ShikaTema. However, all pairings are only secondary at best to the great humor.
Synopsis: Narutard Theater takes the cast of Naruto and and makes them into a Universal Adaptor Cast doing affectionate parodies of Disney-fied fairy tales, with Lampshade Hanging all around.
Comments: The humor is absolutely hilarious, and kivae even manages to keep the cast in-character to their cannon personalities even when playing the most unexpected roles (like say Naruto as Sleeping Beauty or Gaara as a Fairy Godmother). Good for some crack lulz.

Naruto: Heroes Path by Dedmerath

Recommended by Snes
Pairings: Naruto is married to Hinata, Sasuke is married to Sakura
Synopsis: Takes place about one generation after the current story. A group of warriors set out to destroy the ninja world. Meanwhile, Atsuko, the daughter of Hokage Naruto and his wife Hinata, deals with the problems in her own life.
Comments: An entertaining and well-drawn comic. The plot hasn't really picked up yet, but it's interesting to see where the author puts the old cast years later. Beware of the chronic Schedule Slips.

Naruto Tensei by Nekoni

Recommended by koolkame
Synopsis: "Twelve years ago there was a nine-tailed demon fox. A swing of one of its massive tails could cause mountains to crumble and tsunamis to roar over the land. That life has ended now, and the story of the nine-tails has been reborn as that of Naruto. Follow his story with a twist- how will his life play out if he really is the reincarnation of the demon fox Kyuubi? How will his life play out now that... his father is still alive?"

 * ''Pairings'': [[Captain Obvious|Naruto/Hinata]], along with most of the other [[Pair the Spares|standard fanon pairings]]
 * ''Synopsis'': The story takes place at some unspecified time, but presumably shortly after the conclusion of the manga. 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 [[Rescue Romance|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 [[Original Flavor]] 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.
-* ''Comments'': There is a great deal of impressive storytelling in this archive. Standing at 850 pages and counting as of this submission, it rivals any but the largest webcomics you could find on the net today. It's easy to see the artist's evolution throughout the story, as quick, faded sketches with no background become more detailed, with backgrounds and a professional-appearing panel layout. As for the story, it is heavily in the tone of [[Original Flavor]], with a healthy dose of [[Lighter and Softer]] thrown in because of the emphasis on character relationships. Don't let that label fool you into thinking this is a "Meet-Love-Kiss-Screw" fic; the villains who appear are compelling, the story arcs are top-notch, and characterizations are spot on, with not the slightest hint of a [[God Mode Sue]] anywhere in the series. In fact, much of the story's strength comes from it's original characters. Note that above I said story arc'''s'''. As in plural. At 1000+ pages, you are looking at an [[Archive Binge]] like no other. It is a little slow to get going, but once it does, you'll be hooked. Highest recommendation.
-** Edit, As of 11/5/2011, there are '''112 Chapters / 2170 Pages'''. [[Archive Binge|Good Luck]]
-** YMMV. While the sheer amount of effort put into the comic is very impressive, this troper found himself screaming [[Character Derailment|"You're a freaking ninja!"]] far, far too often.
-*** [[Highly-Visible Ninja|Many people find themselves shouting this at the actual manga so there is not too much difference then...]]

 * ''Synopsis'': "Twelve years ago there was a nine-tailed demon fox. A swing of one of its massive tails could cause mountains to crumble and tsunamis to roar over the land.

-* ''Comments'': An AU where the Fourth Hokage didn't seal the Nine-Tales and instead used a reincarnation jutsu to turn it into a baby he raised as his son, Naruto. First off, the art is almost [[Original Flavor]] enough that it can be mistaken for Kisihimoto's at a cursory glance. It swings from funny to dramatic expertly and has excellent OC and original costume designs. And it is ''funny'', particularly Minato's interactions with his [[Stalker with a Crush]] Anko and the  {{spoiler|double date the Uzumaki men go on with Sakura and Anko-and Hinata}}! It hasn't been updated in a few months but there seven chapters already made with most in color. It wouldn't hurt to check out the rest of Nekoni's art and other doujinshi, especially the dramatic yet also comical [http://nekoni.deviantart.com/gallery/#Naruto-Henge Henge] and the dark [http://nekoni.deviantart.com/gallery/#Naruto-Captured Captured]. ''Captured'' actually shows  {{spoiler|Kakashi}} ''crying''. It's very disturbing... Also available on the artist's personal site [http://www.nekoni.co.uk here].
