I know that the story has already been written, but didn't Itachi order Sakura to destroy the eye Kakashi had? Is the beginning of this chapter a continuity error, with the eye implanted into Itachi, or am I missing something?

When will Sasuke get the Mangekyou?

Asuma... died?

This is so great so far. Love it, especially that you dare to kill characters. It’s war after all, and it truly raises the stakes. Can’t wait to read the rest!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh shit the tension is allllll the way up to the sky. You're a good writer (probably better now that you've had 8 years to improve)

Loving this sequel so far! Interesting plot and plot twists...
I did notice that you do use many metaphors and whatnot that can seem a bit clunky sometimes. You could possibly try to cut down on those or integrate them more smoothly

Bfufkeif I hated that character death. You wrote it well, I only say that because he’s my favorite character and I loved him in your story. Well done on the story overall! It’s quite a different direction things took as a result of Itachi’s time travel and I really enjoyed it. Thanks for writing this!

Funny how in canon Itachi actually uses the the technique Yasaka Magatama, and also Izanami, while Danzo uses Izanagi.

Sasuke: You are supposed to be an insane, bloodthirsty monster.
Gaara: I am not insane.

Lol I love that sandy bastard.

I really enjoyed this story. I like how balanced it felt - Itachi changing things didn't make everything perfect, just different.

holy shit hello given how few reviews you have for the SHEER QUALITY THIS SERIES HAS BEEN SO FAR here's me telling you that you blew my mind at 3AM and that I can't give you a more satisfactory review until after I've read the sequel, the rest of your fic, and then reread this series all over again.

in between playing Pokemon go of course.

Oh, this was lovely! I've been on a time-travel AU fic kick lately, and it is depressingly difficult to find a decent long fic along those lines, but this series definitely fits the bill. Itachi going back has the potential to change so much, and you really made it believable in the first fic of this series, in terms of how much he could fix-but also in terms of how much he couldn't change.

And even though I'm still mad at you for killing off Kakashi, this was a very fitting sequel, and satisfying, in that someone finally put Danzo down. Of course, now I'm depressed this series is over, but at least there's still the wrap-up stories. Thanks for an awesome read!

KAKASHI SENSEI!

For all the buildup, Itachi's take-down of Danzou, itself, felt pretty brief. I'm okay with that, it just struck me that way.
Nice happy ending. I hope to see in the sequel how the relationships between Genshi and the Leaf-loyals trapped in the village are rebuilt.

Also, I like how Sakura wasn't useless and hesitating to destroy the eye like she was with Obito in canon.
yeah, Itachi! I'm pretty sure Amaterasu is in the left eye and Tsukuyomi is in the right, though.
