* ''Comments'': Extremely well-characterized, and one of the best Minamimoto fics you'll find out there. The writing is flawless, and the plot is engaging. However, it appears to be dead, or at least it has very slow updates.

* ''Comments'': It really does a good job showing the consequences to even the positives of the Shibuya game. Consumption is a pretty neat idea. Overall the fic is very scary and it manages to make Beat angst without breaking character.

* ''Synopsis'': Sora is sent to Shibuya to investigate some strange activity coming from there. But instead, he ends up being thrust into the Reaper's Game. He's partnered up with Neku, who's back due to an accident but was instructed to help Sora. Together, they find out that the Heartless have come to Shibuya. Neither of them knows much about the other. But they still have to figure out what's going on, while still making it safely through the Game. (Note From the Future: Written way before KH3D.)

* ''Comments'': OK, so that wasn't the best description. But seriously, this is one of the best crossovers I've ever seen. You wouldn't think that a series like Kingdom Hearts would mesh well with a more serious game like The World Ends With You, but this author manages to make it work. Everyone is kept in-character, and the two stories are put together in a way that seems believable. The plot is sufficiently interesting, and the writing is good. After all, this author is listed on the fanfic recommendations page for Kingdom Hearts. Overall, it's certainly well-done. If you like both Kingdom Hearts and The World Ends With You, I'd recommend taking a look at this. (There's also a sequel, but I personally don't like it quite as much.)

* ''Synopsis'': /ReseT/ Neku finds a new app in his phone.
* ''Comments'': Based off the "what-if" scenario of Neku finding the Chapters option in his phone from post game. As expected, Neku is thrown into the last three weeks of Game all over again with his memories intact, but is prevented from doing anything because it's already happened. While repeating canon events, the author skillfully throws in real elements from post-game, such as Neku finding a "mysterious box" each day and eventually finding the Secret Reports. There's plenty of angst, but not so much as to overload the reader, but features beautiful, if sometimes disjointed writing on Neku recognizing the signs he should have seen.

* ''Synopsis'': ...well, he does.
* ''Synopsis'': ...well, he does.
* ''Comments'': A brilliantly written parody in which Neku and Joshua are transported into a bizarre alternate universe while playing hopscotch. Hilarity ensues. The author would like you to remember that "this is a story about Joshua and Neku. This is not a story about Joshua/Neku. Don't worry, the protagonists do not engage in sickening fluff with each other. That would not be manly. This story involves Joshua/Neku, but not between the main characters Joshua and Neku. And besides, it's not exactly Joshua/Neku anyway - so if you're not into that sort of thing, then you're okay. If you are into that sort of thing, then...okay."
** Seconded by Ellamew. No amount of emphasis can accurately describe how incredible and fabulous this story is. Although this story at first seems akin to [[Those Lacking Spines]] as a parallel work in the slash parody regime, they absolutely cannot be compared. Joshua Trips is an entirely different novel, cleverly unique in both its feel, humor, and ingenuity. It is guaranteed to catch your interest no matter what kind of shipper you are, and that is not to be said lightly. Again, this story is NOT a Josh/Neku story, although that certainly doesn't lessen its appeal to such fans. Or any sort of fan. With full honesty, you have not read TWEWY fanfiction until you have read this story. It will make you laugh. It will make you sing (with laughter). It will make you cry (with laughter). It just might make you horrified in disgust (yet still with laughter). But most importantly, it will keep you engaged as you root out loud for our Josh-Josh and Nekkun as they brave the horrendous trap that is the grisly, distorted Josh/Neku-but-not universe. Be sure to give yourself a solid afternoon to read this masterpiece, as you will be incapacitated until the very last word. (Except maybe the occasional pause to search up the definitions for those multitude of exquisite vocabulary words you wish you knew.) So take a glorious bite of this brilliant adventure, and keep in mind that the author probably eats cool beans for breakfast.

* ''Comments'': A profound and thought-provoking story made up of five separate scenarios strung together by a single "loose thread", one unifying circumstance. The author takes the concept of pacts between Reapers and brings it to a whole new level with the unique and disturbing idea of consumption. The story begins with a normal day with the Reapers Kariya and Uzuki, but as it progresses, it ends with a horrifying revelation. This must-read story is a beautiful creation that will forever change your perception of a pact and its implications, but importantly, it challenges you to reconsider which is more difficult - to sacrifice or to consume.

Revision as of 21:08, 26 June 2016


Proof that the remaining 10% is worth dying for, followed by winning The Game and coming back to read them again, here:

These are recommendations made by Tropers for The World Ends With You, all of which have been signed. After a few samples, you will be able to judge whether you might be interested in the 'fic, based on who recommended it. No-name recommendations will be erased. Discussion of the recommendation is welcome on the discussion page. As such discussion is important, do remember to add the discussion page to the watchlist, if need be.

Do warn when a fanfic may head into romantic or non-canon territory. Some people just don't like it, and as we all know, Shipping is Serious Business.


Authors, and Websites

Scrawlers

  • Recommended by starstuff99
  • An author who seems to have an endless muse for TWEWY stories, she's equally adept at humor and drama. She has around a million stories for this fandom, some of which are oneshots and some of which are in progress.

Out of Body Experience by Br D Pirate Man

  • Pairings: Neku/Shiki
  • Synopsis: From the fic itself: Neku has won the Reapers' Game but is unfortunately reincarnated in Eri's body. How would he cope with everyday life from now on? Rated T for language and ecchi sexiness. The final part is here, along with an "extras" chapter!
