Description: Yang Wenli, one of the two heros of Legend of Galactic
Heros, having died gets to experience the afterlife ala Yu Yu Hakusho.
Comments: Really too short to comment on much, so I would have
overlooked it, except that I really want to see more LOGH fics and this
one looks like it might be promising.

[FFML] [Ranma/WOT] Parallel Lives 13
Date:

From:
"Ranma Al'Thor" <ranma@falcon.cc.ukans.edu>
Description: In the Wheel of Time universe, Ranma and Akane have
drifted apart, driven by their sex change curses and long periods of
separation. Each has someone else. Now, however, with the other
Tendos on the scene, Kasumi and Soun are going to react...poorly.
Comments: A number of different people have had the same idea of
transporting Ranma and other cast members into this series. This
is probably the most successful one. There's a distinct feeling of
geographic confusion though as the story switches from Shampoo and
Kaneda to Alyssa "twenty feet down the corridor". The geographic
switches seem to me to be too common and therefore confusing.

Description: Cologne has turned Akane into a cat to cure Shampoo.
Comments: OK, as of this revision, Cologne isn't merely evil, she's
totally insane. She deliberately inflicted a terminal illness on her
own great-grand-daughter, unless of course she's lieing. On the bright
side, her rambling speech now makes sense as a product of her insanity.
I rather like the way Akane escapes.
Incidentally, I saw no serious formatting problems.

Description: All of the wackiness in Nerima is really the product
of evil Illuminati machinations, but now the facade is breaking down,
the puppets are spinning out of control, and in some cases dieing.
Comments: Evil Tofu strikes again! It's as good an explanation as any
for the blatant plot contrivance of the series I suppose. A well
written but grim series.

From:

Description: A childhood accident leaves Usagi as a disfigured orphan
who grows up into a fearsome, but brilliant, gang leader. Meanwhile
the Senshi are still looking for their "Moon Princess"
Comments: Should appeal to lovers of anti-heros, but I'm not cynical
enough to truly appreciate it.

Description: "Golden Boy" becomes the new delivery guy for Ucchans.
Comments: I sort of like the idea of a total outsider coming in and
providing an alternative. Of course it's like hooking her up with
Ataru in this case. It seems unlikely that a Japanese person wouldn't
know what okonomiyaki was, though. Incidentally, the plural of
"okonomiyaki" is "okonomiyaki".

Comments: Script format actually works pretty well. I found the
idea of the Senshi Upgrade Ver. 5.8 to be particularly funny.

Description: The Kuno children find the effort of maintaining their
delusions increasingly burdensome. The stress causes Kuno to lash
out verbally at Nabiki, reducing her to tears with surprising ease.
Comments: If I was Nabiki, I'd be looking for a way to make Kuno
pay.
There's a familiar quality about that Alyssa chick. Did the author
ever write a Slayer's series?
I'm a little foggy about the damane. Shouldn't they have keepers? They
seem to be operating autonomously in the palace.

Description: The Knight Sabers bump heads with a similar group of
mercenaries. Meanwhile a secret organisation pulls strings to get
a newly bolstered and upgunned A.D. Police to clamp down on loose
cannon idealistic mercenaries.
Comments: Looks like somebody crossed over their roleplaying game
characters with the Sabers.
Spelling is generally quite poor with an average of three
errors per paragraph, and it's difficult to do a line by line
correction of a 182 kb fic. It might be helpful for the author to
consider trying to use a spell checker program, even though it will
miss all the times he spelled "cyberoid" as "cyberiod". Grammar is
so-so, but at least he knows when to start a new paragraph.
