Fuku Fic: Difference between revisions

Line 36:

* What better way to tell that this has become an entire genre? Why, when a brutal [[Deconstructed Trope|deconstruction]] of it is [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5993481/1/The_Unwritten_Tales created], of course!

* Fanfiction writer [http://www.yggdrasil.org Chris Angel] gave an example of how he thought a proper ''Ranma ½''/''Sailor Moon'' fic should go. It can be found [https://web.archive.org/web/20150712005809/http://www.yggdrasil.org/cross/oneshots/different.txt here]. Unfortunately, it's only a one-shot, but the ending is great.

* ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20130605100703/http://www.asynjor.com/fanfic/sharp.html Featherbrite's Tale]'' by Gregg "Metroanime" Sharp (located about one-third of the way down the linked page) is a '''Fuku Fic''' in which ''Sailor Moon'' is still fictional, but Ranma and the rest of the cast become ersatz Senshi anyway. As the winner of ''The Bet'', it is naturally predicated on one tiny change made to Ranma's life. Sadly, it's a [[Dead Fic]], twice over: Sharp got to 14 chapters of a first version, then began a rewrite that got as far as the sixth chapter, before abandoning the project entirely. However, clever readers can work out the probable ending from the information available to them by the end of the last extant chapter of the first version.

* An interesting take on this is ''[[The Return (fanfic)|The Return]]'', where the fuku in question causes so much [[Loss of Identity]] that Ranma becomes quite arguably an original character, even taking to using a different name.
