Please update

I really enjoy the story, been binging it over the week. I only have one question, why has the lacrima presumably containing the Ichibi not been brought up again yet? is there plans for it yet?

are you still updating?

So this is just a glorified garbage bashing fanfic.

This is pretty much a combination of every bad Naruto fanfic ever.

All the fairy tail characters are just pushed to the side and treated like useless fodder.

While all Naruto characters are treated like gods.

While Naruto is given godlike powers to easily beat all the fairy tail villains e.g. Jellal

Naruto gets worshipped like a god by everyone. Just because the author has a bias towards Naruto.

Any Female character in fairy tail is reduced to a damsel in distress that immediately falls in love with Naruto or one of his friends.

Mary Sue Syndrome

In canon, Naruto, Shirou and Ichigo's ideals of protecting others are admirable. They struggle, get beaten down and rise up again to protect the people they about.

In fan made crossovers like this one. This is ruined entirely. They go from the likeable characters that won hard fought battles through guts and determination to mary sues who win every battle with ease.

You should focus on all the characters from both series and focus on developing their relationships.

Not just wanking Naruto, Ichigo, Luffy or Shirou to ridiculous heights and making him out to be everyone's favorite guy. Then they are just a mary sue. You are ruining the characters and everything they stand for.

Where is Naruto during all this, as a Jinchurriki he has the best chance against Yugito!

Sasuke is going to have to pull out all the stops and capitalize on any openings Tenten can manage to create if he wants to beat Yugito. Even if he can, he probably will not be in any condition to take down any other members of the Thunder God Tribe after winning the match. The Sharingan is going to be crucial in defeating Yugito if she decides to whip out Matatabi's power.

Well. If you want honesty...I didn't care too much for this chapter for two reasons: for one, what made the original 'By Any Means' so interesting was the focus of Naruto, his buddies in crime Skikamaru and Shino, Tayuya, Zabuza-to name a few-, and their secret secret plans and activities( hunting Kyosho for one thing) This chapter that focused was shifted, normally, that'd be no big deal, but the fact that this chapter followed canon pretty much step-by-step with Naruto characters thrown into the mix made my shoulders slump. Maybe next chapter, maybe focus on what's happening on the side while canon events are happening rather than focus majority on canon because... that was boring.

Another note. I didn't notice before but I'm just now realizing...while I love the pairing, Naruto and Erza's relationship seemed to have moved...too fast. Just...too fast...is the best I can describe it. Also, I also feel their moments and attraction should be a secondary focus and more subtle both to the reader and in the story. Example, how they interacted with each other in this chapter was a bit tacky awkward for me to read. Like I said, maybe having things more subtle between them might make the moments( when they appear) more smooth and more importantly, meaningful. Again, I only say this because I feel they've moved too fast.

Another note. I find Sakura annoying. I usually love to read her in fics, but the way she is portrayed( at least lately) in this story makes me wish she didn't exist, or at the very least, on the other side of the tracks if you know what I mean. What I find annoying? Apparently, battle harden shinobi can't take care of their health or physical state without her help. As ive said, the likes of Kakashi and Naruto are harden and experienced and TRAINED shinobi. While healing isn't their strong aspect, given their ...occupations, for former occupations, they should have a firmer grasp compared to the average mage or civilian on how to care for themselves when it comes to their wellbeing. In this chapter, Sakura even stated that they can't without her, and that is what I don't like.

Or...if that was just a gag thing and/or comic relief, then I'm blowing this out of proportion...hehe.

Lastly, the grammar was a little choppy.

I hope this review helps you. Really enjoyed the first 'By Any Means.'

:-)

I predict that this will end VERY badly for Laxus.

Naruto is Kurama’s Jinchuriki in this story, right!?

Should someone accuse Naruto of being evil for his actions as the Hitokiri once that bag of worms is revealed, I hope that someone points out that he was a soldier following orders back then. The morality of his actions during that dark period of his life were ambiguous at best, but that's what happens when you are a soldier fighting in a TRUE war.

Not judging here but why are cana and tenten in a relationship

You planning on adding madara?

this is really... cool...
thank you for update this storyyy... ;-)

Good to see this story is back!

Of course, the big bass guy is Danzo, and WHY did kind Hinata have toned up under Danzo instead of in Fairy Tail!?
