Title: Something to Die For
Author: Macavity the Myster Cat Category: WIP Rating: T Pairings: - Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3003800/1/Something_to_Die_For Summary: Morino Ibiki was thought to be the last choice for a jonin sensei, but thanks to the efforts of Umino Iruka, he finds himself saddled with a familiar team of new genin... I like this one - I think its pretty well written, albeit rather slow. Either way, I like the ANBU  |

It's decent, good grammer and solid writing. The story is going way to slow and update rate is horrible even more so when you consider the size of the chapters. 3/5

I remember that I followed this story awhile back but then just lost interest in it after awhile and deleted the link from my bookmarks. From what I can recall it was pretty decent but nothing profound happened that kept my interest and then like FantasyFreak said the update rate was rather bad. 3.5/5 for a above-average fic that kept my interest for awhile.

It's enjoyable, sure. Good idea, firm writing style, overall good quality.
But, as has been said, downright crappy upload rate, and slow pace detract from the quality. A 3.5/5 from me. --------------------  |

I returned briefly to see if there were any new stories that I was interested in and hadn't read yet. Unfortunately, there aren't. Eh. You win some, you lose some. However, I'd like to put out there that I like this story, it has decent writing, and it seems like most of you are just pissed off because he doesn't update very frequently. It's still a decent read (much better than the average fan fiction) and fully deserves to be in the Library, at least for having an interesting expansion of Ibiki.
I'm also fairly interested in Naruto's involvement in ANBU, which could end up being great, or being shit. Great as in, "Naruto was protected by ANBU and is friends with a few of them, and can later default to them for more specific training, e.g. for the chuunin exam", and shit as in, "Naruto is a super!ANBU in disguise." -------------------- Now that your wallet is all lit up . . .

I enjoyed this fic as well. Decent writing and interesting genin test... though a little slow on the pace.
4/5. --------------------  |

I read this awhile back. Solid writing, interesting take on Ibiki, but horrible update rate. 4/5

I like it. Only problem for me is how cluttered everything seems to be. It makes me want to skip ahead to parts that are more spread out.
