{{examples}}
 
* One of the best examples extant, and probably the trope maker, is ''[http://www.ranmafics.com/Stories/Lines_of_Destiny/ Lines of Destiny]'' by Louis-Philippe Giroux. Sadly, it's a [[Dead Fic]].
* There is an entire website dedicated to this concept, the ''Temple of Ranma's Senshi Seifuku'', located at the predictable URL of [http://www.fukufics.com/ www.fukufics.com].
* Although for the moment it's a [[Dead Fic]], Mark "Togashi Gaijin" Shurtleff's ''[http://gaijinsrealm.com/relabs/index.shtml Relatively Absent]'' iswas both an excellent example and an excellent [[Subverted Trope|subversion]] of the concept. Unfortunately, Shurtleff left the fanfiction scene and succeeded in very thoroughly purging this and his other fics from the Net ([[Beyond the Impossible|even from the Wayback Machine]]).
** Also on the same website is Shurtleff's incomplete ''[http://gaijinsrealm.com/ten/index.shtml Ten of Two]'', was another subversion in which Ranma doesdid not just join the Sailor Senshi, he ''becomes'' the Sailor Senshi. ''All'' of them.
*** Both fics are not just dead but also permanently removed from the internet with Togashi Gaijin's recent departure from the fanfiction business.
* Similarly, Rob "Kenko" Haynie's ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/380988/1/ Paragon]'' subverts the usual arrangements.
** Haynie's approached the [[Fuku Fic]] from several unusual directions. In addition to ''Paragon'', there's ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5507657/1/CATS CATS]'' (complete) and ''Crossed Moon'' (incomplete, with only a [http://www.knology.net/~kenjiko2/Textfiles/Crossmoonprotemp.txt prologue] and [http://www.knology.net/~kenjiko2/Textfiles/CrossMoon1Atemp.txt chapter one] extant). Both are... different and both are quite good.
Line 19 ⟶ 17:
** ...but Zillman's ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/26926/1/Destinys_Child Destiny's Child]'' is a much more byzantine one which has, among other things, Ranma being over ''four hundred years old'' by the time the Senshi show up. With training from [[The Slayers|Lina Inverse]].
* 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 Toto Thethe Empire]]'', written 2006-7, proves the subgenre is far from dead and can still spring some surprises on even the most jaded reader.
* The as-yet incomplete ''[http://www.genom-research.com/sfr/stories/drafts/SSMM Shin Silver Millennium Monogatari]'' by Suika Roberts is interesting in postulating a highly [[Magitek|technomagical]] Moon Kingdom that fell ''half a million years ago''; Ranma is ''not'' a senshi, but the reincarnation of Beryl's little sister, who was in Serenity's palace guard. It isn't ''quite'' a pure Fuku Fic in that there are tiny [[Shout-Out|Shout Outs]] to ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'' scattered throughout.
* ''[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).
