    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...

    This story gets a tentative recommendation. I had forgotten about it, but then it updated and I remembered the sheer awesome potential I thought the story had had. Read and see if it tickles your fancy as it has mine.

    Yeah, I was kinda surprised it updated. Been awhile.

    It's okay but not that great. Good enough if you want to waste some time on something that won't melt your brain. Seems to get a little weirder the more chapters are put out.

    I mean... what the hell is with Kisame's brother/cousin/whatever?

    Well, I loved it. It's certainly not up there with the very best, but it is certainly very good. Good characterization, innovative and fairly well thought-out OCs.

    The whole Naruto under Ibiki or ANBU thing has been done, but this concept of the whole of Team 7 under T&I is one I find interesting. The Naruto/Genjutsu thing is one I enjoyed as well.

    5/5 because I enjoyed it so much. As for the broader general quality of story it probably only rates 4.

    Incredible. It's a necro-fic. I'd forgotten the last time I saw one pulled back up with updates from that far back.

    I loved this story then, and I like where it's going now.

    Hopefully Macavity will be updating a bit more, because this is probably one of my favorite different!sensei stories.

    It's very nice. The interactions are interesting and none of the characters are too overdone or over-powered. Only real problem is the near non-existent updates. If Macavity would update more regularly, it would definitely be one of my favorites. 4/5

    I like this, but I find all the #'s in place of swearing very annoying. If you're going to swear in a fic,at least write it properly for fuck sake. However,apart from that little quibble,I like it. 4/5
