Pairing(s): Kakashi x Sakura
Rate/Genre: PG-13 - Serious, angst, blood, adult themes

This doujinshi surprised me. It actually addresses the issue most Naruto fanfiction readers have when deciding whether or not they would support the Kakashi x Sakura pairing—that being the age difference between Kakashi and Sakura and the fact that there is a trust issue with him being her sensei.

I would probably give this doujinshi a higher rating if there was anything explicitly shown, but there is no sex in it whatsoever. I gave it the PG-13 because of the topic. Kakashi seems to want Sakura, but she is no way prepared for what he wants from her and only reacts to his very forward advances in fear, anger, and violence. I think her reactions are realistic and Kakashi's portrayal as a troubled and yes, confused as well, man work to making this doujinshi unique in its own right, even if the art is not.
