* Synoposis: From Part 8, Chapter 25:
** In the first Tangled Web is where the [[Sliders]] group bounces off the TARDIS belonging to ''[[Doctor Who]]'' knocking them into the [[Star Trek]] universe. Q thought it would be funny to interfere so he helped the Borg to learn about the device used to move throughout the multiverse. Once the Borg obtained that technology the Q Continuum made Q take responsibility for the situation and have to fix it but not directly.
** When the Borg came to Coruscant in A TANGLED WEB 2 they faced groups from ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV)|Buffy the Vampire Slayer]], [[The Six Million Dollar Man]]'' and ''[[The Greatest American Hero]].''
** In A Tangled Web 3 took the Borg to ancient Greece of [[Xena]] and [[Hercules: The Legendary Journeys|Hercules]]. Help was recruited by way of the ''[[The A-Team (TV)|The A-Team]]'' and ''[[Sea QuestSeaQuest DSV]]''.
** [[Battlestar Galactica]] meets V-THE SERIES as well as an alternate version of [[Stargate SG-1]] in A Tangled Web 4. Aid came from ''[[Quantum Leap]]'' and ''[[Starman (Filmfilm)|Starman]]''.
** A Tangled Web 5 focused on a world populated with secret agents, cops, and detectives from numerous TV shows as well as Immortals from ''[[Highlander (Franchise)|Highlander]]''. Characters from ''[[Smallville]]'' and ''[[Babylon 5]]''/''[[Crusade]]'' were both brought to this parallel world to face the Borg.
** A Tangled Web 6 took place on the [[Planet of the Apes]] populated with Gorillas, Chimpanzees, and Orangutans in Australia alongside characters from ''[[Mad Max]]'' and ''[[Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome|Beyond Thunderdome]]''. Help is supplied by [[Robo CopRoboCop]], [[Max Headroom (TV)|Max Headroom]], [[Gargoyles]] and Vincent from ''[[Beauty and The Beast]]''.
** A Tangled Web 7 occurred in the late 1800's in California using many Western TV characters. Aid was brought in from characters from ''[[Due South]]'' and ''[[Alien Nation (TV series)|Alien Nation]]'' alongside several heroes from the late 1930's such as [[Tarzan]], [[Indiana Jones]], [[The Green Hornet|The Green Hornet and Kato]].
** A Tangled Web 8: [[Doctor Who|The Doctors]] -- his incarnations 1 thru 10 -- have gathered an army from throughout the multiverse to stop the spread of the Borg. Those volunteers that had no prior experience against the Borg were to face off with the army of the Master, while the fighters who had already fought the Borg were asked to use their experience to try destroy the Borg -- or die trying.
* Comments: And this was only the people that were on the starting away teams. Started around 1997-1998 and still ongoing. At the end of each chapter there is a short listing of any new people, their actor and which show they came from. This helps with the flow of the story by not having a note mid-paragraph saying what show the new person came from. There is also two sidestories to A Tangled Web, [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3772668/1/A_More_Tangled_Web A More Tangled Web] and [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3772857/1/Another_Tangled_Web Another Tangled Web].

Line 46:
** @/wescotta: Okay, this is probably required reading for fanfiction readers everywhere. It isn't perfect--much of the plot was improvised, the writers flirts with purple prose and the story could have greatly benefited from some serious editing--but in terms of sheer emotionally-draining, reference-heavy pyrotechnics, there is possibly nothing else quite like it. It's so fraught with darkness that it's difficult to read at times, but in its two thousand or so single-spaced pages it makes a very strong case for itself as fanfiction's equivalent of Neon Genesis Evangelion, philosophy, deconstruction and all. Not to mention that it's the sort of story that could only exist as fanfiction, justifying the form as a legitimate medium. It takes strength and commitment to see it through, but the rewards are worth it.

* Recommended by Thurhame, [[User:Looney Toons]], [[User:Magic Kirby]]
* ''Synopsis'': Suddenly and without warning, an unnamed anime fan has his life thrown into complete chaos: whenever he goes to sleep, he now wakes up in the bed of a different fictional girl from an anime or manga. Much trying desperately to stay alive -- and awake -- ensues. As the story advances, he becomes mixed up in the plot of several of these worlds.
* ''Comments'': Another very well-written self-insert fic, but nowhere near as dark as ''Hybrid Theory''. Despite the name, nowhere is there anything even close to [[Lemon]]. The story keeps in mind consequences of things you normally don't even think of (such as lack of sleep). Unfortunately the story is unfinished, however it updates at a decent pace. A more complete description can be found [[Sleeping with the Girls (Fanfic)|here on All The Tropes]].

* ''Synopsis'': When a coma patient awakens from her thirteen-year-long sleep in 2034, it sets in motion a series of events that involve the royal family of the Juraian empire, the Knight Sabers, and a secret bloodline of espers in an effort to thwart an apocalypse set in motion by an ancient, inhuman enemy -- and may reveal the secret behind the mysterious disappearance of the Sailor Senshi decades before.
* ''Comments'': John Biles' ''[http://www.maison-otaku.net/~rhea/Shiva/Shiva1.html Dance of Shiva]'' blends ''[[Tenchi Muyo!]]'' ([[OVA]] continuity), ''[[Sailor Moon]]'', ''[[Patlabor]]'', ''[[Kimagure Orange Road]]'' and ''[[Bubblegum Crisis]]'' -- along with [[The Cameo|cameos]] from and [[Shout-Out|Shout Outs]] to at least a dozen other sources (including ones as far-ranging as ''[[Die Hard (Film)|Die Hard]]'') -- to create a story that is by turns action-packed, comedic, and unabashedly mystical.
 
''[[The Open Door (Fanfic)|The Open Door]]'' by Academia Nut ([http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4320933/1/The_Open_Door Fanfiction.net version])
* Recommended by [[User:Gentlemens Dame 883]], [[User:Shockz]], [[User:Daughterof Ether]]
* ''Synopsis'': A sequel to Academia Nut's previous ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]''/''[[Warhammer 40000]]'' fic ''[[Thousand Shinji (Fanfic)|Thousand Shinji]]'', with the newly-ascended Gods expanding their fiefdom into the other realities and involving quite a lot of characters from other fictional works, starting with ''[[Haruhi Suzumiya (Light Novel)|Haruhi Suzumiya]]'' and going far from there.
* ''Comments'': Suffers a wee bit from [[God Mode Sue]] though. Of course, being a sequel, it takes something of a "You Should Know This Already" approach to the previous story's content, so beware spoilers if you [[Incredibly Lame Pun|step through The Open Door]] before reading ''Thousand Shinji''.
 
''[http://www.thekeep.org/~rpm/sw/ The (sur)Real World]'' by RPM
* Recommended by [[User:Looney Toons]]
* ''Synopsis:'' Looking for a cheap, fast idea to fill a hole in their schedule, executives from the Nippon Broadcasting Network steal the concept of MTV's ''[[The Real World]]''. Unfortunately, the "seven ordinary people" who are "randomly selected" to share the house end up being [[Ranma ½ (Manga)|Ranma Saotome]], [[Kimagure Orange Road|Kyosuke Kasuga]], [[Ah! My Goddess (Manga)|Urd]], [[Sailor Moon|Mamoru Chiba]], [[All Purpose Cultural Cat Girl Nuku Nuku (Anime)|Atsuko Natsume]], [[Urusei Yatsura|Ataru Moroboshi]], and [[Tenchi Muyo!|Washuu]]. [[Hilarity Ensues]].
* ''Comments'': Wonderful character-driven comedy that gained quite a following in the late 1990s. [[Dead Fic]], unfortunately, with the first of several planned seasons still unfinished. Even so, it inspired a number of other writers to offer their own spins on the setting, which are available on the same page as the stories themselves. Filled with numerous [[Crowning Moment of Funny|Crowning Moments Of Funny]] -- among this troper's favorites is the moment when Ataru notices Sasami's reflection in the lake is gorgeous babe Tsunami, and arranges for his reflection to kiss her. Written in a mixed paragraph and [[Script Fic]] format, which some may find off-putting, but the script style actually is justified here as "transcriptions" of broadcast footage.

''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4060042/1/Super_Smash_Bros_The_Evangelion_Wars Super Smash Bros. -- The Evangelion Wars]'' by Shritistrang and Alex Warlorn
* Recommended by [[User:Golden Darkness]]
* ''Synopsis:'' To quote a TV commercial, something's gone wrong in the happy-go-lucky world of [[Nintendo]], and it isn't because of the involvement of M-rated hero [[Metal Gear|Solid Snake]], fallen gaming mascot [[Sonic the Hedgehog (Franchise)|Sonic the Hedgehog]], or the "Should have been included in [[Super Smash Bros]] character" [[Mega Man (Videovideo Gamegame)|Mega Man]]. Various heroes are missing and it's up to the Evangelion pilots to fill the gaps. Shinji Ikari as [[Kirby]]. Asuka Langley as [[The Legend of Zelda (Franchise)|Princess Zelda]]. Rei Ayanami as [[Star Fox (Video Gameseries)|Krystal]]. And it's only the beginning, everyone they know from their world are also brought in to replace someone, good and evil.
* ''Comments'': Probably Shritistrang's most epic fan fiction to date. Be warned that there are liberties with some of the source material, especially for games [[No Export for You|not released outside of Japan]]. And the author's from Europe, and considering how Europe is treated regarding game releases...
** [[User:Spiri Tsunami]] seconds the recommendation, and would like to add that [[Star Fox (Video Gameseries)|Wolf]] is somehow more [[Badass]] as {{spoiler|Hikari Horaki}} than he ever was in his own body...not to mention, the biggest Badass in the entire story.

* ''Comments'': Actually a sort of constantly-evolving roleplaying story done by a collaboration of authors, ''Yukari is Free'' has staggering amounts of crossovers. These include, but are most definitely not limited to: Azumanga Daioh, Yotsuba&!, ''[[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann]]'', ''[[Portal (Video Gameseries)|Portal]]'', Gary's Mod, ''[[WALL-E]]'', ''[[Code Geass]]'', I could go on and on. It also uses character models from ''[[Full Metal Panic]]'', ''[[Lucky Star]]'', ''[[Persona]] 4'', and again, could go on and on. As some of the archives containing the stories have been deleted, you can get a cliffnotes version of Season 3: Part Twenty-Five or so [http://www.shimauu.net/azu/res/139514.html here] (The thread does derail massively after about fourteen posts). Contains yuri, among other things.

* ''Recommended by'': [[User:Harold And Maude]]
* ''Pairings'': Huey/Original Characters(three of them), Dewey/Webby, Louie/[[Darkwing Duck (Animationanimation)|Gosalyn Mallard]], but shipping is obviousely not the main goal of the work.
* ''Summary'': A [[Continuation Fic]] following each of the three nephews, assuming [[Don Rosa]]'s Disney timeline. Scrooge has passed away in 1967 and left each of them one third of his massive fortune. Now, in 1970, The three of them have become estranged from one another, and must come back together to hold off a hostile takeover of the company, and ultimately avert World War Three.
* ''Crosses over'': ''[[Duck Tales (Animation)|Duck TalesDuckTales]]'', ''[[Tale Spin (Animation)|Tale Spin]]'', ''[[Darkwing Duck (Animationanimation)|Darkwing Duck]]'', ''[[The Three Caballeros (Disney)|The Three Caballeros]]''. Hints of ''[[Goof Troop (Animation)|Goof Troop]]'', and several general Disney Universe [[Shout-Out|Shout Outs]] and Cameos.
* ''Comments'': Surprisingly good story written over the course of a month and a half based on an idea thought up on 4chan. It says "Ducktales" but really, with the exception of a lot of the characters, it's more in continuity with (Or at least welds the Ducktales universe to) [[Don Rosa]] and [[Carl Barks]]'s runs on the Duckiverse comics. Also manages to weld the timelines for ''[[Tale Spin (Animation)|Tale Spin]]'' and ''[[Darkwing Duck (Animationanimation)|Darkwing Duck]]'' on. Captures the globe-hopping feeling of adventure that Disney Comics are so good at, only with more violence and some romance. Ultimately just a big love letter to Disney in general. Complete at 23 chapters. Contains a fair amount of violence and swearing. Enough at least for an M rating on FF.net. A caution: The version on FF.net has been spellchecked, but the version on the blog has not.
 
''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4869171/1/Grand_Tour Grand Tour]'' by [[Tropers/Drunken Grognard|Drunken Grognard]]. Started as a ''[[Ranma One Half|Ranma 1/2]]'' and ''[[Star Trek]]'' (both ''Star Trek Deep Space Nine'' and ''Star Trek Voyager'') crossover, it quickly spiraled into more series, including ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha]]'' with many series acting as a one-chapter one-shot or a cameo mentioning at most.
Line 109:
** [[Your Mileage May Vary]] -- at least one of those big fight scenes seems very "off" in terms of the power levels of the various fighters, and some characters are somewhat out of character(Particluarly {{spoiler|Akane}} in her first appearance).
** The third story in the saga is completed. Called ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6081473/1/Odyssey Odyssey]'', it focus on the emerging dimensional mayhem with the [[Star Trek]] cast and the forces under [[Star Wars Expanded Universe|Grand Admiral Thrawn]], with the TSAB still on alert after the events of ''Journey''.
** Now with its own [[Grand Tour Series (Fanfic)|page here]].
** The fourth story, ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6576566/1/Walkabout Walkabout]'', is out. Like the second story, it is Earth centered, but [[Mahou Sensei Negima]] elements play a much larger role.

* ''Synopsis'': Happosai casts a spell that ends up sending Ranma and Nabiki back in time and across space to a world that will eventually become the capital planet of the Juraian empire.
* ''Comments'': Does an {{spoiler|"everybody descends from one character" (actually two -- Ranma and Nabiki)}}, but does it in a fairly amusing away. Some fights, but, for the most part, the characterizations and interactions are the best parts. In addition to ''Ranma'' and ''[[Tenchi Muyo!]]'', this story incorporates elements and characters from ''[[Slayers]]'', ''[[Naruto]]'' and ''[[Sailor Moon]]'', among other sources.

* ''Synopsis'': After the events of the [[Rescue Arc|Enies Lobby Arc]], the Straw Hat Pirates are happily sailing on the seas on their way to Fishman Island... when the Thousand Sunny is swallowed by [[Paper Mario (Video Gamefranchise)|a large door appearing out of nowhere]], and as it turns out, the Straw Hats have wound up in the [[Super Smash Bros|Smash Universe]], [[Super Mario Brothers|going]] [[The Legend of Zelda (Franchise)|through]] [[Pokémon|various]] [[F -Zero|worlds]] [[Metroid|on]] [[Kirby|their]] [[Metal Gear|way]] [[Star Fox (Video Gameseries)|back]] to the Grand Line. However, behind the scenes, a evil plot is being hatched...
** ''Comments'': Really, this could be one of the best stories [[This Troper]] has read in decades. Rather than going for a basic "Main Characters Are Sucked Into A Different World And [[Hilarity Ensues]]" story, it manages to go even deeper than that, all while keeping with the humor and action One Piece is known for. And somehow, the story doesn't just restrict itself to the series that Smash Brothers covers, crossing characters from [[Final Fantasy]], [[Kingdom Hearts]], [[Street Fighter]], [[Mega Man (Videovideo Gamegame)|Mega Man]] and [[Twisted Metal]]. While quite wordy (being only 50 000 words away from exceeding the million-point mark), it's not something you can sit down and finish in an afternoon, and for the first few chapters, the grammar may seem a bit off, but all in all, probably the most unique [[Crossover]] this troper has read to date.
*** Tropers/Emperordaein Seconded. It has it's flaws, such as a bit of [[Power Creep, Power Seep]] issues (parts such as Zoro being able to defeat Gannondorf, Sanji beating Dark Samus and {{spoiler|Liquid Ocelot}} being able to fight on par with LUFFY may be hard for some to swallow), a downright ''lazy'' [[Deus Exit Machina]] for Mario during his arc, the cameo oversaturation and baffling plot of the Pokemon arc (For the first half), an extremely long final battle that just becomes boring not long through, and a frustrating {{spoiler|[[Reset Button]]}} ending. But they can't really take away from just how damn FUN this story is. The characters are spot on, the story and universe established are superb, the interactions between the Straw Hats and characters from the different worlds are fantastic, and the fights are incredible. It makes the reader care for the Straw Hat's journey, and them stopping the universal dominion plot.
 
Line 131:
* Recommended by [[User:Spiri Tsunami]]
* ''Synopsis'': As the title suggests, there are ''heavy'' parallels with the plot of ''[[Kill Bill]]'', and it features the characters known among followers of the [[Game FAQs]] Character Battles as the Noble Nine -- here re-imagined as a group of assassins of varying levels of morality. Not surprisingly considering the heavy rewriting of characters, the lone member of the group who is a villain in his games becomes the closest thing to a "heroic" character found. [[Metroid|Samus]], as the lone female in the Nine, is naturally given the role of the Bride.
* ''Comments'': This story was originally published on [[Game FAQs]]' Board 8 by Stats Topic regular Bellis, who apparently signed up for a fanfiction.net account for the sole purpose of archiving it there. While the Nine and the other characters from their games form the majority of the cast, there are random incursions by characters who are not only unrelated to any of the Nine, but have also never appeared in a Character Battle. Also of note is that almost everyone undergoes a complete alignment reversal--so [[Lawful Good]] characters like [[Mario]] and [[Chrono Trigger (Video Game)|Crono]] become [[Chaotic Evil]] (both [[Ax Crazy]], and the latter a [[Blood Knight]]), while Chaotic Good [[Sonic the Hedgehog (Franchise)|Sonic the Hedgehog]] becomes [[Lawful Evil]] and [[Final Fantasy VII|Sephiroth]] becomes the most sympathetic of the Nine and the only one who doesn't seem like he really deserves to die. Truly a [[Crazy Awesome]] AU.
** Also, [[Shipping]] warning: Yes, the parallels with [[Kill Bill]] ''do'' include Samus being pregnant with the child of the Nine's leader, {{spoiler|Snake}}. (As well as {{spoiler|their child still being alive.}} Let's face it, this story pretty much '''is''' "''[[Kill Bill]]'' with video game characters".)

** Relax, that part was a plot device and the fights have become a bit more in universe, plus Turn A is in the hands of Amuro Ray

* ''Recommended'' by: [[Tropers/Not JM Keynes|Not JM Keynes]]
* ''Synopsis'': When Angel Groove is attacked by ridiculously powerful enemies, what does [[Yu-Gi-Oh!|Seto Kaiba]] do? Blackmail [[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann|Simon the Digger]], [[The Big O (Anime)|Roger Smith]], [[Zoids|Bit Cloud]], [[Vision of Escaflowne|Van of Fanelia]], and [[Neon Genesis Evangelion|Shinji Ikari]] to join forces and fight them! This was either an awesome or a really bad idea!
* ''Comments'': It started as a really funny [[Power Rangers]]-like [[Deconstructive Parody]], with the battles getting more and more [[Crazy Awesome]] (and [[Crowning Moment of Funny|funny too]]), while the [[Monumental Damage|collateral damage]] to the titular city getting worse and worse after every enemy attack, the fic has started to show an interesting plot, with the villains of each series making a team up, but there's more plans and factions there, and, even if it's in the first chapters, there's space for reasonable [[Character Development]], especially on Shinji. [[Loads and Loads of Characters]] and it's pretty interesting.

Not exactly for those that don't want to be spoiled by later events, {{spoiler|like the events of the After War and the Universal Century (Gundam ZZ in particular)}}, but I didn't care about that particular fact personally. Either way, it's a good read, at least for me.

* Recommended by [[User:Retnuh]]
* ''Synopsis'': This series combines the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]''. and ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog (Franchise)|Sonic the Hedgehog]]'' universes with the over-the-top action of ''[[Dragonball Z]]'' to create the best flash video series on the net.
* ''Comments'': Known for, as described above, its ''DBZ'' action with the main characters, but also for making ''many, many'' [[Continuity Nod|Continuity Nods]] to the numerous ''Mario'' games that have been released over the years. Was so popular and well known amongst people on the internet, the creator suffered a surprisingly huge amount of backlash from trolls and oddly enough, his own fans, pestering him about when the next episode would be released. It was so bad, that the creator, alias Alvin-Earthworm, even had his [[Deviant ART]] page spammed and he declared the series dead. Thankfully, he changed his mind and released the seventh episode sixteen months after the sixth, but general consensus from his fans say the wait was worth it.

''[[Yu Yu Gi Digi Moon (Fanfic)YuYuGiDigiMoon|Yu Yu Gi Digi Moon]]'' by [http://www.fanfiction.net/~Kanius Kanius] (Rated M for violence and some adult content, but only two scenes in the "Movie" approach [[Lemon]]).

The characterizations and inter-series interactions are superb, and the author seems to have a knack for writing battle scenes. After six and a half years, the story is still going strong, with new chapters released near-weekly. Even though this isn't a [[Shipping]] fic, there are numerous pairings, including Takato/Rika, Takuya/Izumi, Rei/Hiei, Joey/Mai, and a few Canon/OC pairings.

Line 257:
* Reccomended by Bulletproof Idea
* ''Fandoms'': Disney, and Warner Bros.
* ''Synopsis'': The [[Strange Point Of View]] has three stories so far. The first two take place in the same universe, [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7056436/1/Lost_Tales_of_Fantasia ''The Lost Tales of Fantasia''] and [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7145042/1/Its_a_Small_World_University ''Small World University'']. The first is a [[Dark Fic]], that takes the Disney fandom, [[Grimmification|gives it a dark twist]] and sets it in World War Two. The plan is for it to encompass every single Disney story, and to make it so all of the [[Fridge Horror]] and [[Alternate Character Interpretation]] that takes place in the story is feasible within the individual stories. Not recommended for those without [[Brain Bleach]]. The second story in the series takes place in the present with all of the modern day Disney shows, and it's early days but it seems that [[Wizards of Waverly Place|Alex Russo]], [[Phineas and Ferb|Candace Flynn]], and [[Kim Possible]] must fight some sort of [[Eldritch Abomination]]. The third fic, [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7348318/1/Harrys_Eleven_and_the_Dark_Knights ''Harry's Eleven and the Dark Knights''] is not Disney, it's a Warner Bros. crossover. It's based off of [[Harry Potter]], and so far includes the DCAU, Ocean'sEleven, Beetlejuice, [[Book of Eli]], [[Sherlock Holmes]], [[The Matrix]], and [[Jackie Chan Adventures (Animation)|Jackie Chan Adventures]], among other things, with the author dropping hints that [[Death Note (Manga)|Death Note]] will make a future appearance.
* ''Comments'': Each story is very ambitious. The Lost Tales of Fantasia is an intriguing read, which will make you rethink even your favorite Disney characters. It builds a fantasticly grim world, where Hitler can dance to a [[Dark Reprise]] of a Bednobs & Broomsticks song and still be frightening. Meanwhile Harry's Eleven and the Dark Knights is a fascinating look at a Harry Potter, and facets of the wizarding world given less consideration by J.K., such as magical crime, and Mad-eye Moody. Mad-eye is featured very prominently. Both worlds are detailed and full of adventure.
** The stories are really inventive, and a must-read if you're looking for something original. But sometimes it could feel like too much is happening at once. This could be a good thing, or a bad thing.

* Recommended by [[User:Fast Eddie]], [[User:Vorticity]]
* ''Synopsis'': Colonel Douglas Sangnoir (codenamed "[[User:Looney Toons|Looney Toons]]") is a metahuman operative for the United Nations ejected from his home universe by enemy action. As he travels from timeline to timeline in search of his homeworld, he encounters universes that are homes to people and situations the reader may recognize from works of fiction, but which are unfamiliar to Doug. Now with its own [[Drunkard's Walk (Fanfic)|trope page!]]
* ''Status'': Two of the story cycles ("steps") are complete, and two more are in progress.
* ''Comments'': ''Drunkard's Walk'' is an [[Anime]] fanfic that has been chosen as "Best On The Web" on at least one occasion. It is by troper [[User:Looney Toons]] (along with [[Round Robin|various co-authors for several of the installments]]). It has spawned [http://drunkardswalkforums.yuku.com/ a discussion board] and [http://www.accessdenied-rms.net/dw-fics.shtml fanfics] ''of'' the fanfic. [[Web Original]].

''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/992536/1/Arisugawas_Locket Arisugawa's Locket]'' by [http://www.fanfiction.net/u/199217/shanejayell shanejayell (warning: most of these fics are shoujo-ai)].
* Recommended by [[User:Spiri Tsunami]]
* ''Pairings:'' (main cast only) [[Revolutionary Girl Utena|Juri]]/[[Sailor Moon|Setsuna]], [[Tenchi Muyo!|Ayeka/Ryoko, Minagi/Sasami]], [[Excel Saga (Mangamanga)|Excel/Hyatt]], [[Ranma One Half|Nabiki]]/[[Phantom Quest Corp|Ayaka]], [[Revolutionary Girl Utena|Keiko]]/[[Hand Maid May|May]].
* ''Summary:'' Juri Arisugawa (''Revolutionary Girl Utena'') opens up a lesbian bar. Thanks to a variant on Washu's (''Tenchi Muyo'') [[Applied Phlebotinum|Time and Space device]], [[Inn Between the Worlds|the bar exists across multiple dimensions]] (this was established in chapter 8), which allows characters from just about every anime imaginable (and occasionally from [[Buffy the Vampire Slayer|something]] ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer|other than]]'' [[Buffy the Vampire Slayer|an anime]]) to visit the bar.
** ''Primary Fandoms:'' ''[[Revolutionary Girl Utena]], [[Sailor Moon]], [[Tenchi Muyo!]], [[Ranma One Half|Ranma 1/2]]''
** ''Secondary Fandoms:'' ''[[Excel Saga (Mangamanga)|Excel Saga]], [[Vision of Escaflowne]], [[Hand Maid May]], [[Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou]], [[Phantom Quest Corp]]., [[Mahoromantic]], [[Mai-HiME]]''
** ''Tertiary Fandoms:'' Do you want this entry to go on forever?
* ''Comments'': The cameos are nice, but the story gets really good when it's focusing on the staff, namely the romance between Juri and Setsuna (''Sailor Moon's'' Sailor Pluto), which results in {{spoiler|marriage}}, another plot involving Juri and other characters from ''Utena'', or Tendo Nabiki's (''Ranma 1/2'') romance with Ayaka Kisaragi (''Phantom Quest Corp.''), which {{spoiler|hasn't worked out ''quite'' as well as Juri's did}}). Many of the scenes featuring guest stars are taken from shanejayell's other fanfics, although the scenes do not read exactly the same as they did in their original context (some parts are shortened, while other parts are actually ''added''). Really, if you're a [[Yuri Fanboy]] (or fangirl), you'll probably like shanejayell's work -- of the fandoms I listed as either primary or secondary, Tenchi Muyo is the only one that I've actually seen. It's good enough to transcend the individual fandoms, IMHO.

* ''Synopsis'': The former is an absurdly-large conversion project for the ''[[Angel (TV)|Angel]]'' RPG that has grown into a world of its own. Characters and creatures from dozens of sources put into a blender and set to "frappe", with details mixing, colliding, and occasionally replacing each other: [[Mazinger Z]], [[Gigantor]], and [[Cutie Honey]] all run on [[Hot-Blooded|Nekettsu]] engines that generate [[Ghostbusters|Pink Slime]], The [[DC Comics|Anti-Monitor]] is the master of [[Kingdom Hearts|The Heartless]], [[Haruhi Suzumiya (Light Novel)|Haruhi Suzumiya]] is the daughter of ''[[The Adventures of Baron Munchausen (Film)|Baron Munchausen]]'', [[Street Fighter|Akuma]] is a fragment of [[Soul Series|Soul Edge]], The [[Cthulhu Mythos|Great Old Ones]] include [[Godzilla|Bagan]] and the [[Macross Frontier|Vajra]], [[Serial Experiments Lain|The Wired]] encompasses [[Digimon|The Digital World]], [[Stargate SG -1|Jack O'Neil]] pilots The [[Rah XephonRahXephon]], and [[DC Comics|Amazo]], [[Marvel Comics|Ultron]], and the [[Futurama|Robot Devil]] are all the same being. <br /><br />The latter is a story similar to a ''[[Super Robot Wars]]'' game (as the title suggests) based on the above universe, in a world where monster attacks and invasions have hit the earth for more than a century, and the various organizations that have arisen to deal with them have finally started sharing notes. By order of President [[Gargoyles|David Xanatos]] (you heard me), SG-1, UNIT, the [[Hellboy (Comic Bookcomics)|B.P.R.D.]], [[Ultraman|G.U.Y.S.]], and even the [[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha|Space-Time Administration Bureau]] are starting to work together.
** I was wondering if I'd see Supernatural Taisen here. The massive crossover is extremely well handled, and makes it clear that the author knows what he's doing. If you're a fan of any of the series involved, or the super robot wars franchise (or hell, even if you're not) it's most definitely worth a read.

* ''Pairings:'' [[Canon]] to the stories referenced, though some interesting variations when the character does not have a canon boy/girl friend.
* ''Synopsis:'' Asherhyder has created a universe where [[Labyrinth|Jareth]], [[The Phantom of the Opera|Erik]], [[Pirates of the Caribbean|Commander Norrington]] and [[Les Misérables|Javert]] all live together in the same apartment. Also along for the ride (occasionally) are [[Good Omens (Literature)|Crowly, Aziraphale]] and [[The Lord of the Rings|Legolas]] as they try to survive each other and life outside of their normal existance. It's [[Better Than It Sounds]]. Be warned though -- spoilers abound.
* ''Comments:'' This story is hilarious. [[Hilarity Ensues]] practically every time the author pens this work, and when hilarity does ''not'' ensue, it is well written and beautiful. The story is still incomplete at almost 170 pages, and it has a [[Lighter and Softer|lighter and funnier]] "sister" called ''[http://pika-la-cynique.deviantart.com/art/GirlsNextDoor-Introductions-73082145 The Girls Next Door]'' by [http://pika-la-cynique.deviantart.com/ Pika-la-Cynique]. Over the course of the comic, it crosses over with ''[[Les Misérables]], [[The Phantom of the Opera]], [[Labyrinth]], [[Pirates of the Caribbean]], {{spoiler|[[Repo! theThe Genetic Opera]]}}, [[Wicked (Theatretheatre)|Wicked]]'' and many others. You don't have to actually ''know'' much about the series mentioned, (though sometimes there are bonus jokes for those who do), and it may even convince you to check those things out. Sometimes this is crack, sometimes it's serious, but it is always -- ''always'' -- a good read.

* ''Fandoms'': [[Total Drama Island (Animation)|Total Drama Island]] [[Code Lyoko]]
* ''Synopsis'': Two years after Jeremy and the others shut down the supercomputer, XANA returns and captures them all except Aelita. At the same time the Total Drama cast arrive in France after being roped into another season. Now Aelita must save her friends with help.
* ''Comments'': The storyline, dialogue, and action is very fresh. The writer has done a good job keeping the continuity of the story to match that of the two shows.
