I was wondering how you were going to go about the establishment of Mito as a flesh-and-blood human being without Kushina's (and by extension, Naruto's) direct intervention. Then, you made out Mito to be a complete badass, not only in taijutsu (surprising), but in Sealing Techniques (no surprise there), to the point where she herself brought about her transition from a mere Edo Tensei summon to a living, breathing human being once more. Great work on that one.

The backstory you gave Mito was another great aspect, especially how you detailed the reason behind her acting, including the prim and proper behaviour she exhibited. Looks like you got in some good jabs at the Nidaime in this chapter, first with the Edo Tensei, and then with the borderline imprisonment of Mito. When she basically attained freedom upon her revival, I thought she was about to bed some schmuck like Kuukaku did, but luckily we were all saved from having to read such things, eh? Lol.

The Anko thing is starting to look bleak, but if Naruto manages to reconcile with her, then it'll look like nothing is out of his reach. The upside to this is that he finally realizes that he can't remain passive when it comes to his many lovers, especially when being assertive could prevent unnecessary problems like the brewing tension between himself and Anko from becoming distractions. I also liked how Naruto came to the conclusion that he mistakenly approached the situation with Anko similarly to how he handled Ino.

I'm glad Naruto is starting to realize that his actions affect the light in which his lovers view him; although it is understandable that he defers to Tsunade on occasion, what with her being Hokage and all, I feel he does it so often that his other lovers may take that as his being submissive, in a sense. As was mentioned in the story, his seducing Tsunade so early on led to him using her as a crutch, and while that's not a bad thing, he appears to have been overly reliant on her.

I guess that could be perceived as intentional on your part, since he is by no means perfect, but his newfound resolve to put his foot down as a demonstration of his dominance should also be applied to Tsunade, in my opinion, in order to curtail her when she adopts an authoritative tone when in the presence of him and the rest of the Harem. This is because in private, she is not viewed as the Hokage, she is viewed as just another woman whom Naruto happens to have charmed.

Thanks for the update.
