Prinz von Sommerhoffnung

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.

On the way to school on the day before the new school year begins, Sommerhoffnung Crugah finds that someone wants her away from the premises. Once she actually gets there, she finds that she is to be part of a monster-fighting group. However, at least two factions seek to subjugate her powers for their own uses.

Prinz von Sommerhoffnung by Warp Ligia Obscura (also available at SpaceBattles) is supposed to be an Alternate Universe Novelisation My-HiME fanfic. It's so alternate that the character names are different... It is best described as a Mega Crossover. It follows The Stations of the Canon/Broad Strokes without adhering tightly.

Currently stands at eight chapters, but updates have been... very sporadic.

Tropes used in Prinz von Sommerhoffnung include:

"Sommerhoffnung, we believe we've told you before to call us by our first names," Ymia said. "Calling us Herr und Frau Reyrcs makes us feel like... like..."
"Yes, dear?" Eywon asked.
"Like dusty old tomes."

The couple burst into raucous laughter at this, along with Nyarsrof and the twins.

Sommerhoffnung had the odd feeling that the Reyrcses had forgotten to do something. Something about eyewear that she just could not pin down.

  1. The kanji for Mai's name, if read as if Chinese characters, are pronounced "Wu-yi", with Ywiu being an anagram of that. Mai is... well, Mai, while Tou-qi-ha is a transliteration of "Tokiha" into Chinese.
  2. "Why So Serious" in Chinese
  3. War -> Battle, Hammer -> Nail, 1.6 mil is 40k squared
  4. not coincidentally also a reference to this video, given that Warp Obscura and MaxAndEmilytate are friends
