[FFML] [Ranma] [Fanfic] Part 1 of New Dealer, New Hand
Date:

From:
"John Morales" <belgarath@sprintmail.com>
Description: Alternate universe where Mousse intervenes
to "save" Ranma's female form from Shampoo, or more
accurately to save Shampoo from committing murder, and
in the process accidentally gets Genma killed.
Comments: Hey, any fic that starts with Genma's death
already has something going for it, right? Mousse is
perhaps a little too good to be true, here, but then
I suppose that's the point of divergence. Still, there's
something unsettling about Mousse and Ranma being so
sensible and normal. Spelling and grammar appear flawless.
"Oh! I'm sorry. My father was Genma Saotome, and I'm Ranma. This
is a friend of mine, Mu Tsu, but call him Mousse."
Soun: His name is Mousse, but you want me to call him
Mousse?
Ranma: No, his name is Mu Tsu!
Soun: That's what I said. Mousse!

Description: Obsessed and unbeatable martial artist
is looking for Shampoo.
Comments: I don't see the problem. Superman would
make a great husband for Shampoo, and since nobody can
beat him (as demonstrated by his defeating the entire
amazon village), they might as well give up right now,
unless they have some kryptonite lying around. Even then,
getting Ranma as a husband is a waste of time when they
could get this guy. Iffy spelling.

Vacation pt 6

From:
Pat Olsen <tagan1@ccaccess.net>
Description: Apparently he author suddenly realises that he's
about exhausted the possibilities of Kasumi's feline curse, and brings
in a Ranma crossover with Kung Fu: The Legend Continues.
Comments: Not a bad idea at all, but it might be a good
idea to go back over the previous chapters and plant a
little foreshadowing. Some scattered spelling errors.
One thing, versus Peter, the author might also want to
bear in mind that Ranma is a graduate of the Genma
Saotome school of motivational insults.

Godzilla

From:
Theo Mintesnot <http-www.no.tomorrow.com@juno.com>
Description: Superman fights Godzilla and gets pounded.
Comments: The "solution" to Superman's problem is dramatically
wrong. When brute force fails, more brute force isn't
the answer if you want an interesting story, particularly
when the author could have just defined Superman as
strong enough to win in the first place. Instead, to
make this story work, Superman should come up with a way
to use his brain with his brawn.

Description: Ranma explores the wonders of womanhood.
Comments: Very wacky, highly recommended.
As Ranma started to walk to the intended destination, Akane
stared. And Nodoka remembered Kasumi's words.
"Ranma may be... somewhat moody, Akane-chan, for a few days.
Whoops. That makes it sound like the advice
was from Kasumi, not Nodoka.

From:
Stephen Ratliff <sratliff@runet.edu>
Description: Ranma and Akane, having met at age twelve,
rather than being the textbook cases of retarded sexual
development that we know, have instead become a smidgeon
precocious.
Comments: While Nodoka would probably be proud of her
son's manliness, she might not approve of Akane's lack
of resistance to his wiles.
Akane? Oh, he's to the "You must carry on the traditional of the Saotome
School of..." Time to put on the respectful face and response. I wonder...

[FFML] [fanfic][DARK][Ranma] Happi's Legacy, episode 2,
Final(ish) draft
Date:
Mon, 31 May 1999 02:15:05 -0700
From:
Liath Shadow <ShadowChan@cybergal.com>
Description: A new reality is spawned by the combination
of six wishes, in which a sexually abused Ranma is trapped
in female form.
Comments: I don't think it's playing fair to have some
of the wishes unheard and others heard and there doesn't
seem to be much of a rationale to it. It can't be to keep
others from interfering in the wish because the author let
Shampoo's wish be heard. I also don't think that Akane
would seriously wish for anyone to die, even Happosai.
Why not make her wish something like Genma's? "I wish
that Happosai would never grope me." It's a little selfish,
but at least it isn't murder.
Still, I always emotional trauma, and it's fairly well written.

Description: Our hero, Ranma, having faked his death and
run away from his problems is now going to school with
modern day incarnations of Lina and Gourry while he learns
magic.
Comments: Ranma's aversion to saying the word "magic" is
a nice touch, and the modern incarnations of the Slayers
characters seem far more recognisable than they were.

Description: Ranma gets his hand on one of those Slider
gizmos and decides to use it, accidentally taking Nabiki
along for the ride.
Comments: The initial pretext for Ranma's slide seems forced
and unnatural. What exactly about tampering with the storyline
of Ranma 1/2 worries these sliders? In Japan they say
that every person has two other people who look
like them. A minor problem with Ranma learning the
breaking point is that he doesn't have Ryoga's resistance
to damage.
Ranma calmly distangled his shirt from the enerved man's
"distangled" is not a word. "unnerved"

Comments: Not a particularly harmonious crossover.
If Guyver can beat daimons in human form, they aren't
going to be a real challenge when he's armoured up.
