i’ve caught a massive hashimada hyperfixation and basically read almost every completed fic on AO3, so now I want to share my favorite works with you!!!
🥇 The Blood-Soaked Road to Paradise by renyanen
this is my absolute favorite hashimada fic in terms of canon, characterization, and especially madara’s psychological depth. it’s as beautiful as it is painful — a story i’ll keep in my heart forever, guys i can talk about this fic for hours…
🥈 unfinished portraits in charcoal by theadventuresof
i absolutely love the author’s writing style and the way hashirama’s realization of his feelings for madara is handled. this fic is so soft and sweet, such a good slow burn!! the character work is amazing — i’m completely in love with this beautiful story
🥉 Communication Accomodation by AndreyaHalms
my favorite T-rated fic ever. it’s insanely cute, I adore the dynamic between hashirama and madara. the plot with mokuton that hashirama can’t control because of his feelings hit me straight in the heart — i can’t handle it. they’re so awkward and adorable help me
the midnight hour by theadventuresof
AGAIN i love this author’s writing style and their hashimada!!! themes of hidden feelings and misunderstandings are really close to my heart, and that’s exactly what this fic is about. my poor boy Hashirama suffered so much — i’m just happy it ended well
BUT I’m not really into madahashi, sorry 😭
Spoken Beneath the Stars by ABO_gamer
just short emotional work, love it
The Tale of the Man and the Fox by Makkoska
E, 21k words: japanese mythology/folklore AU
i love Japanese mythology and folklore themes — yokai madara and yokai-hunter hashirama… i’m obsessed. i adore stories about love between two “beings” who aren’t supposed to be together because of their different natures, but still find a way to be happy
Early Summer Rain by secondmeteor
just a very good slow burn in a samurai AU
The Night in Our Souls by Makkoska
E, 5k words: vampire/human AU
I ADORE vampire/human relationships, and this fic is chef’s kiss. vampire hashirama and vampire hunter madara — if you love this trope as much as I do, you have to read it. also… it’s very hot
my favorite mistake by Green_Riot
E, 5k words: modern setting AU, exes to lovers
they’re so painfully dependent on each other, i can’t, it feels so canon. i love angst with a happy ending, and the way the author writes the tension between them… it’s hot and emotional, do i even need anything else…?
