How To Not Fuck Up a Naruto Fanfic

" wait . . . im a jonin even though im from another world?"

yo!

i have been off this account for a long time. i think it's starting to be a regular thing. i can't write like i used to. its kinda making me sad. 

i think after finishing the RELIFE series, I'll finish writing.

BUT ILL UPDATE THIS SUCKER LOL. not a lot. I don't know how many times I will, but I like writing here.

a ton of you guys have asked about the whole  "im from another world dropped into the Naruto world" rant.

to be honest, these stories are very, almost eerily similar to an anime genere.

it's called harem.

oh my god, why is every cringe naruto  fanfic writer so obessed with either sasuke, kakashi or the akatsuki fucking them?

its so unorginal, unethical and extremley unrealistic, in the real world and in the narutoverse.

this one came up a lot, the famous trope of "i somehow came into the naruto world, but i'm really cute so i become super strong uwu!"

i - 

what?

speaking realistically, these stories usually start off with the premise like this:

" uwu, hi, my name is cindy! my mom abuses me for weed, my dad is dead and i have one best friend who miraculously disspaears half way into the story!  i watch anime to escape this world - oh wait, where am i? is that you, kakashi - senpai? "

its usually that except with misspellings, grammer mistakes and a shit ton of plot holes. 

how many times do i have to say this? make sure you SPELLCHECK before you publish. unless your a horny 12 year old who is desperete for a fic where you can suck deidares dick, no one will read you shitty story.

its such a turn off, having bad spelling. it shows you don't care what your writing about. sure, some mistakes is ok. thats normal, you can't catch all of them, but try to spell things correctly. believe me, people will take one look and leave your story right away, no matter how good it is.

another thing thats annoying in these sorts of storuies is that the main charecter somehow knows a "secret jutsu" or masters taijutsu within a couple hours. authors do this to move the story forward. often or not, they completley discard the "how do i get out of this world!?" for a romantic theme in the book.

if you ask me, i would much rather read this sort of story with the premise of the main charecter falling into the narutoverse, work hard to build up strength and find a basic jutsu to defend themselves ( because everyone except rock lee can do ninjutsu ) , then find a way to escape! i would utilize the "team 7 found me!" trope and ask them to help me along the way. romantic stuff could ensue from that, but you tragically must return to the real world because thats where you belong.

thats what i would write though lol.

one of my favorite oc on insta is sasuke's twin sister, kiyomi uchiha, or in some cases, akari . i love her story, how her relationship forms with her siblings and her friends. she isn't like sasuke at all, yet she's just as capable as him. she's not op, she isn't annoying, she's really well balanced. plus her crush on gaara is always really fun to read about.

thats how an OC should be. never op, never a Mary Sue. well balanced, capable and is their own person. they aren't defined by their romantic interest, but by who they are. and kiyomi or akari uchiha does that, exceedingly well if I must say. she's in the banner above too lol.

the narutoverse is hella dangerous. the main cast themselves had to work hard to protect themselves through intense training. you can't just expect someone to protect you all the time! kakashi and naruto would probably do it until you learn how to protect yourself. you know who wouldn't?

teen sasuke. didn't you see how he tried to kill and push everyone away from him? he would throw you aside the moment you finished being useful to him.

but you know, ROCK LEE WOULD definitely protect you. he's just that kind of guy.

your OC in this style of writing should be very confused, and very weak. throughout the story, you should build them up to the level they deserve. they wouldn't immediately go on a mission. have kakashi teach them jutsus.

ALSO, PLEASE DON'T HAVE A 12 YEAR OLD AND KAKASHI FALL IN LOVE THATS SO WEIRD.

make the age of the OC ( if you want them to be with kakashi) close to his age. i really don't think he would feel attracted to a twelve year old.

 i would also love to see the character struggling in this world. no phones (well unless your in the boruto time) no cars, no advanced technology. it must be hard for the character to deal with this. it would also make sense for them to be homesick, frightened, fearful. 

they must grow from the the silent, scared person to the ninja who can fight equally among their teams.

mix it up a bit. does it always have to be team 7? maybe sakura and your OC can get along? make it different, make YOUR STORY stand out from others.

and maybe, when your oc wakse up from their dream of the naruto world, goes back to their world, or maybe even stays, their confidence boosts up, they stand tall and do what they want for themselves, and understand they are worth it.

the best books always teach you a lesson, and ik yours can do it too :)
