Line 21:
** It's not uncommon in ''[[Ranma ½]]'' fics for Ranma to have an unknown cousin, brother, uncle or ancestor<ref>usually on Nodoka's side of the family to avoid Genma having anything cool</ref> who suddenly appears and solves all of his problems.
** On the other side, the entire length of canon couldn't solve [[Ranma ½]]'s [[Love Dodecahedron]], but one mediocre fight with a Fixer Sue collapses the whole thing, quickly and neatly. A great number of fics start off with one of the girls in mortal peril from some new enemy, and it is only after he rescues her that Ranma finally realizes how important she really is to him. Then the majority of the story is actually spent tying off all the romantic loose ends.
* Parodied in ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20130705220140/http://www.asynjor.com/fanfic/ornstead.html Otaku Three - EVA Revolution]'' by [[Jared Ornstead|Jared "Skysaber" Ornstead]], where his dangerously[[Dangerously genreGenre savvySavvy]] [[Marty Stu]] tries to derail ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'' not through sheer badassitude or [[Xanatos Speed Chess]], but instead by feigning [[Wrong Genre Savvy]] until he turns the series into a [[Super Robot]] show. Hilarity Ensues.
* As in ''Ranma'' fics, ''[[Love Hina]]'' has ''many'' involving Keitaro suddenly having a brother or cousin who shows up to fix the story.
