This is a variety of fic particularly prominent during the 90s, as these were the two most prominent [[Shojo]] and [[Shonen]] series at the time; it still remains surprisingly popular.

* Stephen Tsai's ''[http://www.fanfic.net/pub/Anime/FanFictions/Ranma/Sailor-Ranma/ Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Ranma]'' is an early (1993 or -94) ''Ranma-Sailor Moon'' [[Fusion]]. Ranma ''is'' Sailor Moon, his main fiancées are the Inner Senshi, and his magical advisor is P-chan. Usually played for laughs; for example, Ranma refuses to use the Moon Tiara Magic attack because it's too girly, and uses a Mouko Takabisha instead to finish off youma -- prompting P-chan to comment that it's many episodes too early to have learned that.

* Ozzallos' ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2797728/1/ Heir To The Empire]'', written 2006-7, proves the subgenre is far from dead and can still spring some surprises on even the most jaded reader.

* ''[http://www.sailorranko.com/ The Adventures of Sailor Ranko]'' is an entire ''webcomic'' based on this premise. More specifically, based on Zillman's story above (evidently).

** If it continues long enough, it will most likely cover Twice in a Millennium and then Burger Becky's Sailor Ranko stories as well. And considering that Becky is involved in creating the comic...

** And [[Gratuitous Japanese]].

* ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3605736/1/Fist_of_the_Moon Fist of the Moon]'', in which a ''very'' different version of ''Sailor Moon R'' is presented. Due to Ranma's influence and training, all of the Senshi become much more powerful and have abilities they don't in canon (Sailor Mars can ''fly''). Features a Ranma/Usagi pairing so there is plenty of Mamoru and Akane bashing earlier on, but both never stray into [[Ron the Death Eater]] territory and eventually get better as the story progresses. Completed, with 18 chapters.

* ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3530833/1/A_boy_in_the_hand A boy in the hand]'' by [http://www.fanfiction.net/~dogbertcarroll Dogbertcarroll], a lighthearted (and recently-updated) story featuring a Ranma/Hotaru pairing. Note that there are two somewhat different versions of this fic on the Net -- the Fanfiction.Net version linked above, and one found on the Anime Addventure (below).

** It should probably be noted that Ranma actually becomes a Mask instead of a Senshi.

* 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 [http://www.yggdrasil.org/cross/oneshots/different.txt here]. Unfortunately, it's only a one-shot, but the ending is great.

* ''[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.

** Written, unsurprisingly, by one of the Temple of Ranma's Senshi Seifuku forum admins.

* In the prologue of ''Lemon Sherbet'', a Ranma/Sailor Moon crossover lemon by John Biles, Ranma has a brief run-in with the author and actually attempts to ''veto'' the fic because of this trope. He only agrees to participate after a promise not to become a senshi (and some blackmail). {{spoiler|He never said anything about becoming a Kamen, though. While female.}}
