Summary
Backdraft: a phenomenon in which a fire that has consumed all available oxygen suddenly explodes when more oxygen is made available.
Sarutobi Sora isn't much by anyone's account. They're an average student and an average ninja, and being a half-bastard, no one expects much from them at all. Sora doesn't either. But then, they haven't always gone by the name Sarutobi. They'd gone by Kurama Sora once, and that had been decades ago. Why should they care about Konoha, when they remember what clan had once truly been?
(They don't care until they do. They don't care except they're a medic-nin. They don't care except for the fact that they don't know how not to. Being a healer means caring enough to fight death. It turns out that Sora still cares enough to fight death--and they will burn bright enough to outshine the stars.)

Keep right where you are 'cause I've followed this far. Like I'm sure that you're the Northern Star by Sugaryducky

Summary
Lets watch Mori Yuuki's life in snippets as she lives and saves the Naruto universe, by saying, and I quote, "Fuck it, I'll figure it out later."
This is a self-insert story set in the age of Minato Namikaze and others. How much can she change or fix?
Yuuki is ignoring the fact she never finished reading the Manga and read so much fanfiction it's blurred the line a little bit.

Summary
He woke up in a corpse on a battlefield, twelve years old and 2 decades too early.
The Second Shinobi War is ending. The Third is coming. And somewhere in Konoha, a boy named Minato Namikaze is about to become the most important person in history.
Tatsuya Meguri doesn't have a clan, a bloodline, or a destiny. What he has is a dead man's body, a surgeon's mind, and the horrifying knowledge of every tragedy to come.
He can't save everyone. He knows that.
But he can stand in the shadows so others can live in the light.
They'll remember the Yellow Flash. They'll remember the peace he built.
No one remembers the dark

As The Lightning Strikes by TheAshenOne03
Fandoms: 鬼滅の刃 | Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba (Anime), 鬼滅の刃 | Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba (Manga)

Summary
The Demon Corps had done it-the impossible. The endless war ended with the Demon King's death beneath the piercing rays of the rising sun. Yet victory demanded the ultimate price... none lived to see it.
The nightmare was over.
But not for one man.A swordsman blessed by lightning rose from the ashes. No longer the trembling coward, he vowed to become the wall that would defy time itself-to shield the ones he loved and strike terror into demons like the wrathful thunder of the heavens.
Zenitsu Agatsuma awakens in a world both achingly familiar and impossibly distant. Fate has given him a second chance-or perhaps a cruel jest. Haunted by battles yet to come and faces he could not save, he walks a fragile path where even the smallest change could unravel destiny. And as shadows gather once more, a single question remains: can he rewrite the future, or has fate already chosen his end?
MAJOR SPOILER FOR THE DEMON SLAYER MANGA!!!
READ IT AT YOUR WON RISK!
Disclaimer: I do not own Kimetsu No Yaiba or any of the characters from this story except any OCS that I may create in the future.
Everything in the story belongs to Koyoharu Gotouge.
