Hello there! You once mentioned in your asks that instead of fanfics in Ao3, you like reading doujins more about SNS. Can I please ask for some recommendations for me to read too?? I'll really appreciate it, Thank youu so muchh~
Hmmm... Okay, Since Iâve been in this fandom for just about a year.... And very recently I got into these doujinshis... My range of recommendations will be very limited. None of them are Ranked. However even among them I have favourites which are boldened.....
Warning : Some of the Doujins might not be suitable for your taste... Characters might do certain stuffs ( ** self-servicing ** ) at age 13 without going all the way IN. It might feel Ped*philic for some... Whereas for me it didnât. So, You be warned.Â

When the Five-Coloured Rainbow Appears Part 1 (Chapter 1, 2, 3, 4)Â by Emi/10-Rankai
When the Five-Coloured Rainbow Appears Part 2 (Chapter 5, 6)
Romance - 1%
Plot - 99% [ Suggest me something like this, I would read it all day ]
Plotline: Naruto time travels and meets Sasukeâs family before the Massacre...Â
Prepare to cry.
Sasuke was like an Adorable Little Bubble in this one... This dj focuses more on the interaction between Naruto and Itachi... rather than NaruSasu.

Sudden evening rain hymn (Part 1) by Emi/10-Rankai
Sudden evening rain hymn (Part 2)
It's a wonderful dj Storywise and Artwise... But my only gripe is... Naruto is just... ummm not Naruto in this dj. I don't think he would take light of Sasuke at anytime.

Residence of the Sun (1, 2, 3)Â by Emi/10-Rankai
Residence of the Sun (4)
Another emotional rollercoaster... Sasuke gets amnesia and Naruto helps him recover from that...Â
This dj came at around 2006... And it has âSasuke loved Naruto all alongâ thingy which made me wonder... âKishi, Dude??? 2006??? Did you steal it???â lol.

Uchiha becomes a Cat by Yumemata/Nilo/Signal
Has lill bit smut contents...
But itâs 95% comedy and Naruto was extremely adorable here... Nilo actually trolled SasuNaru here in a funny way....
---------------------------
And We... (Part 1) by Yumemata/Nilo/Signal
And We... (Part 2)
Slice of Life, Modern AU love story... Very good plotline about discovering their feelings.
And We.... 100% Chocolate dear to you. (Independent to the above stories).Â
The Last panel in the above one is something that happened in my real life. LOL.
----------------------------
Yotsudake by Yumemata/Nilo/Signal
This is the very first dj Iâve read... So, itâs always my favourite....
---------------------------
Very Special by KSL/Shino Okimura
100% Funny... The Plot twist would make you laugh for a good 5 minutes.... Beware, the first page looks like Hentai. But 100% Shonen-ai all along.
--------------------------
Golden Spiral by KSL/Shino Okimura
If there is any dj that represents pureness and innocence of Naruto and Sasuke... then this must be it. I got real emotional towards the end and then KSL with her trademark twist....made it damn funny in a single page. But a soulful dj nonetheless.
Damn, Most of her best works aren't translated into English and I am planning on doing one of it...
--------------------------
The Sairoku by KSL/Shino Okimura
I canât even believe people made domestic SNS back in 2005 itself and made it sooooo well... Characters are aged 25 I guess and they are married which is refreshing.... Itâs funny af. It has two parts attached in the same link... Donât miss the other one.
And wait for the Rock Paper Scissor twist... Sasuke is soooo funny in it.
Plus also... youâll know why Sasuke became a.... ummm... see it for yourself... LOLOL.Â
Hint:
-------------------------
Adolescent Mania by KSL/Shino Okimura
That Warmth has a Purpose (Sequel to the above one)
This dj is based on the High School OVA, which SP released in the earlier part of Shippuden....
------------------------
Nine Tails tale Prologue by KSL/Shino Okimura
This DJ came out in 2008... Itâs about Naruto in a Kyuubi form who never wanted to hurt anyone... but there is one Sharingan user (Madara) who made use of him to do bad things and Naruto ended up hating Humanity..... Oh Wait!!!! Isnât this what Kishimoto did in Canon manyyyyyy years later???? LMAO... Kishi is proving again that he is a dj stealer....
--------------------------
KSL is my favourite doujinka so far because she is the only one who got Narutoâs features very close to the Authorâs version of him.... ((As much I love Emi and Nilo's version of him... but they always gave me some Minato vibes which is... ummm... not the entirety of his character ))Â
Narutoâs brash, unruly, unpredictable, cunning, competitive, offensive, flamboyant, exuberant features were usually never explored in other artistsâ works... but KSL did it effortlessly & consistently which you can see from the above posters. Kudos to her!!! And as far as I've noticed, she is the only doujinka that was bothered to explore Naruto's backstory in all of her works... Also, her version of Sasuke is clearly mature, no-nonsense, hilariously cute and close to canon (not giving off that uwu innocent uke vibes)... In Short, Both behaves like Guys in her works.

Freak by Monstercake2
I lovvveeed it. Itâs an SN dj.... The amount of In-Canon-ness is much better than any other dj Iâve came across... I already talked about it here
-------------------------
Melting Snow by Monstercake2
Another SN dj... I canât believe both of these are from the same artist... Very adorable and at the same time a painful dj...Â
âBakasuke, What are you doing here?!â
Naruto was unbearably cute in this dj throughout... Sasuke was like, âI am done with this idiot... but I canât stop liking himâ throughout.... 1000% In Canon-ness....
There is this fanart I saw in Tumblr which I loved so much so that I ended up saving it.. In that art, Adult N and S were kissing each other where Sasuke pins up his hands on the wall.. The source is here... I am talking about the 19th picture. Never thought that it was drawn by Monstercake....
