These are recommendations made by Tropers for ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam Seed Destiny]]'' fanfics, all of which have to be signed to stay on the page. Feel free to add a fanfic of your own to the list, but remember to use the template found [[Fan Fic Recommendations|here]].
Line 32:
* Recommended by Fenrir, [[User:Nitramy]]
* ''Synopsis'': The capstone of [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3819808/1/Mobile_Suit_Gundam_SEED_Seeds_of_Shadows a] [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3819813/1/Mobile_Suit_Gundam_SEED_The_Power_to_Protect very] [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3894566/1/Mobile_Suit_Gundam_SEED_Pain lengthy] [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3973976/1/Mobile_Suit_Gundam_SEED_Soldiers_of_Old retelling] [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4146386/1/Mobile_Suit_Gundam_SEED_DESTINY_Golden_Goddess that] starts off at the very end of ''SEED'' and starts taking things in different directions, starting with Kira becoming a [[Fallen Hero]].
* ''Comments'': For those that are looking for bringing out the most [[Kill
** [[Your Mileage May Vary]] - Shadow Cell goes ''[[Up to Eleven|very]] [[Beyond the Impossible|far]]'' into the [[Kill
** Comartemis: I'm giving this one a negative recommendation. Not only does the author desperately need an ego check (this series is the result of him "proving" that he can do ''Destiny'' better), he also seems to think that the way to "fix" ''Destiny'' is to turn it into ''[[Mobile Suit Victory Gundam (Anime)|Victory Gundam: The Sequel]]''.
*** Fenrir: Yes, because every other fanfic author whose done a [[Fix Fic]] isn't doing it because they can [[Let's See You Do Better|feel they do better]] and [[Zeta Gundam|the series Destiny's a remake of]] ended with sparkles and sunshine and a happy ending through and through.
*** Comartemis: Oh ''bullshit''. People say "I think I can do better" or "I'm going to try to do better", not "this entire series sucks balls and I can make it kick ass by killing all the characters and making the setting borderline [[Grimdark]]". The author loses points right from the start for using a [[Diabolus Ex Machina]] and an ''extremely'' OOC reaction to turn Kira into one of the bad guys and it never gets better after that point. Destiny did ''not'' have a perfectly happy ending, else Stellar and Meer would've been alive at the end; the fact that {{spoiler|Stellar lives to see the end of the series}} does ''not'', in ''any way'', make up for such angst-ridden bullshit as {{spoiler|Kira murdering Cagalli}}. ''Not ever.'' I'm going to say it again: if you had any fondness for SEED and/or Destiny as they were, ''avoid this series like the bloody plague.'' If, on the other hand, you are a fan of [[Kill
*** SolidShark: Going to have to concur there. Leaving my own works completely out of the discussion, I'll simply say that I think the author is [[Completely Missing the Point]], both of [[Gundam]] and the problems with [[Gundam Seed Destiny]]. Point one: [[Gundam]] never shies from showing the dark side of war, that's true; but there's almost always an underlying theme of the struggle being worth it in the end, of ''something'' good coming from the heroes' efforts. Hell, even ''[[Mobile Suit Victory Gundam (Anime)|Victory Gundam]]'' gave its protagonist a happy ending, however bittersweet. Point two: it generally seems to be agreed among the parts of the fandom that dislike canon ''Destiny'' that one of the big problems was the returning characters being [[OOC]]... so ShadowCell's solution is to make at least one of them ''more'' out of character? I'm sorry, but that simply does not make sense to me. Negative recommendation here.
*** Komuro: If it means anything, his sequel story is nowhere near as dark, but is the sequel worth wading through 50 chapters of death, darkness, and destruction? That's the question you have to ask yourself. And I'm not so sure his much-improved sequel is worth struggling through his rewrite of DESTINY.
