U who wrote dis stori...i salute u...itz ibiki nd kurotsuchi dat touched mi veri well...tanks 4 dis

OMG! I read this in two days and i don't know what to say, except i love Anko's roses so much. It was so funny and romantic (with the little bit of drama i love to read) and the actions scenes were amazing. The way you included many characters but all of them with great development, especially Ibiki, Kurenai, Kotetsu, Izumo, Team 7 and the ninken. Also, I LOVED GURUKO.
I just want to thank you for sharing this fic with us. Xoxo

I think this is bad. The story is good that I basically read it in one sitting. I’m so gonna be sleep deprived because of this. TOTALLY WORTH IT!

Ooops i forgot i think a cool idea would have been to focus on how mediocre he feels without his sharingon i think a conversation with anko about that would have been great

I really did like the like alot though i feel like you fell into the same trap that most of the others that write anko and kakashi fall into you write more about anko than you do kakashi and what i mean by that and ive read a few like that where its basically anko and her boyfriend. Where anko does a lot of badass shit but kakashi does minimal stuff she gets the praise and the admiration for being a strong ninja while he is in the backround though im very glad you did only very little and i would love to hear back from you on that. im not trying to rip your story a new one that is not my intention i really did love your cause you actually let kakashi do stuff instead of him just kinda being there like some of the other one do i would love to hear back from you on that

It is January 29th 2018 and I finally finished this story after following it quite awhile ago honestly I think I started following around the time you started it. This was really good for a Kakashi/Anko fic because they don't get enough love cause of them being a crack pairing. I enjoyed the set up with it being Kakashi to find and rescue Anko and the lead up to him being Hokage cause not a lot of fics touch on that with Kakashi in any type of pairing. I didn't care for the Ibiki/Kurotsuchi stuff cause I ship Kurotsuchi with someone else and im sure you understand that but you being a good writer was what got me somewhat enjoying there moments. I feel like you did a good job doing Anko justice from which she did not get in the anime/manga which to this day still breaks my heart and I really enjoyed how you did her interactions with Kakashi's Dogs. Kinda wish there was more Gai, I feel like with your writing doing some funny or heartfelt moments with Kakashi's best friend and his Girlfriend/Fiance/Wife should have been super easy and fun. Anyway I'm glad I finally found the time to finish this story which took me 3 phones,3 computers,and 2 xbox's to finally finish it on anyway best of luck on any future stories

I am utterly speechless with this fic. I read it nonstop for four days so I could finish it.
It had me smiling, grinning, shocked, and I even cried a few times, especially at the wedding scene. You did such an amazing job.

I was shocked at the fact that Anko said she couldn't have kids. Although, it does make sense and I applaud you for doing this. She didn't make it out to be a monster or less of a woman.

Anyways, thank you for writing this story. It made me love this rarepair so much more. :)

Surprisingly, only a few Anko x Kakashi shippers are there. I feel like all of them have faved and followed ur fic, including me. Great job!

Lol Cute.

Wow loved the story. The ending was perfect! Thanks!

Yes! I was so hoping for something like this to happen. Now everyone can enjoy a happy ending! This fic was amazing, loved everything! Well, I will definitely read "Shadow" and I'd really like a one-shot Ibiki/Kurotsuchi spinoff. I've never ever considered them to be a couple before, but I've grown to like them both. They are an interesting pair and I would love to read more about them!

I really took my time reading this chapter, it ended so nicely. Tbh I never thought I would get so invested into Ibiki/Kurotsuchi but you wrote the pairing too well for me not to like it lol. As for Anko and Kakashi, now I love them more than I did when I started reading this. Ps. I already like the new story

Takuma, thank you for a excellent read. As you can tell from my name, Kakashi is my favorite character, and in my opinion, there just not enough good stories with him. I absolutly hate him and Sakura, so this story was a blessing. I'm glad I found it! Cheers to the end of 'Anko's Rose'

Well, its reached the end already. I have to applaud you on this wonderfully written fanfiction for so many reasons. First, I love the entire concept of this story. You took two characters who had little to no interaction in the canon world, and you brought them together in ways that made such sense while also honoring and keeping to their true canon self. You really displayed just how much you really understand Kakashi and Anko as individual characters, and were able to see how two people with hard pasts and present difficulties could come together and become what they needed for each other to move on, and take a chance at love.

And what a love they had! The slow build to their relationship was what made this story amazing! This could have easily been ruined had you made them fall in love too fast, but again you showed just how much you know the characters and the shinobi way of life in the Naruto universe. All those realities they had to face as shinobi was essential in adding to the intensity and appreciation for Kakashi and Anko could have for each other, in a world where tomorrow isn't guaranteed. Their love was so true and epic in everyway.

You also brought so many other characters to the light! Isumo and Kotetsu, Ibiki and Kurotsuchi, Kurenai and even Kakashi's Ninja Hounds! Gurokuro and his attachment to Anko was the most endearing thing! So cute! You did all these characters justice, and this entire fic was a great way to showcase the crew behind the main Naruto universe.

Above all, this was such a joy to read and i'm glad you continued this story after a long hiatus! I remember finding this story years ago and I loved where it was going then. Imagine my great suprise when you not only picked it up, but finsihed it! What a joy! This is definitely one of my favorite stories, and I want the rest of the fandom to know! I'm definitely a fan of your writing!

Thank you thank you thank you for writing this story and bringing Kakashi and Anko together so beautifully T_T it was so moving! Good job my friend!

I can't believe this is almost it and I'm sorry for the lack of reviews! OK ok ok this was an amazing chapter as al ways so let me just pile on my thoughts on the past couple chapters! The wedding! Oh my goodness that wedding! It couldn't have been more perfect and the outfits you have them, I was picTuring it and you mailed it, all the details and the words and the vibe we just so helping Anko with getting ready and then their ceremony...I was melting. And now life as Lord and Lady Hokage begins and Kakashi is taking Naruto on as an apprentice, it's all coming together. I'm glad we got to see Kakashi taking good him on. As he didNT get enough time with Naruto in the beginning, but now he can sort of take on a mentor/ borderline father figure to Naruto now. Still love that Anko and Narutoshe relationship is still a ton of fun, and Kakashi just knows by now that that's how they arre.

And oh my gosh so glad Kurotsuchi and Ibiki got their moment! It was so groundbreaking for Ibiki to let himself feel something for her, let alone take that one moment for himself to be with her. The fact that the6 can't be together simply because of her position aND his duty to the leave village T_T it's so sad. I can't imagine how Ankos just gonna sit back and take it while one of her favorite people is hurting!

Oh my goodness I can't imagine how this ends! I'm so glad you continued this story up until it's end! It's my all time favorite Kakashi and Anko story (as it is one of the rarest of fics with the rarest of pairs!)

I know it's nothe the final chapter, but Bravo friend!
