Any Further Comments. NOTE: These comments reflect only MY opinion of the story, they are intended to provide a little extra data, NOT to be treated as the gospel truth. ------------------------------------ The Ranma FanFic.s in this list are divided into 5 general categories, the categories are described below: 1> CROSSOVER The Ranma 1/2 world and/or characters meets or blunders into a world and/or characters from another series. 2> RANMA AND ... This type of story is typically centered around an original character created by the author. The focus of the story is heavily on this character and his actions with the Ranma cast being in a supporting role. Normally the new character turns up at the Tendo dojo and runs around with Ranma & Co. 3> UNUSUAL SETTING These stories focus on the Ranma 1/2 characters in a situation outside the boundaries set by Takahashi-san. They may either be in an original setting developed by the author or be something going on in Nerima Ward that is abnormal by Takahashi standards. 4> ORIGINAL FLAVOUR An effort by an author to write a Ranma 1/2 story while remaining true to the powers and/or limitations displayed in the anime & manga. Tends to have few original characters and focuses on 1 or more of the regular cast. There are 2 sub-classes within this group - continuations, which try and chronicle events after the series end, and timeless - which can fit into the existing stories. 5> LEMON Members of the Ranma 1/2 cast indulging in sexual activities. Nuff' said. ================================================================= "Communications Breakdown" 'Albercrombie' ORIGINAL FL. -T. One hot summer the residents of the Tendo Dojo head off to the beach and enjoy themselves. While there Ranma and Akane kiss just as a wave strikes them, and just as Kunou wanders by.... Focusses on the conclusions Tatewaki Kunou draws from this scene. Ranma and Akane seem unusally friendly, but the story promises much amusement as Kunou leaps to conclusions. ----------------------------------------------------------------- "A Once and Future Akane" Isabel Arantes UNUSUAL After a typical school day at Furinkan High, Akane and Kasumi run into Ranma while they're shopping, only Ranma goes into shock when he sees Akane. Back at the dojo a second Ranma comes home while the first is being treated, and soon a tragic tale of what could be is told. A strange and in places confusing story, but it is not yet finished and all may yet be explained. Not a story for Shampoo fans. ----------------------------------------------------------------- "Fight of our Life" Ken Arromdee CROSSOVER Have you ever wondered how Ranma & Co would fare against the characters in the Street Fighter II game? Here's one version of events. Other chapters of the F.O.O.L. series deal with the goings on of the combined casts of Ranma 1/2, Urusei Yatsura and Project A-ko. Light Hearted entertainment originally posted as an April Fools day joke. 10 seperate episodes available. ------------------------------------------------ "Regarding Ranma" Jason Ashton UNUSUAL After a battle with a demon unleashed by Happosai's carelessness the various cast members recuperate in hospital (it was a TOUGH demon!), only when they can think clearly again they find that Ranma has lost most of his memory. Akane trying to heal Ranma, and incidently giving him a subtlely biased account of how things were. Inspired by the movie 'Regarding Henry'. ------------------------------------------------ "Sometimes its all too much to bear." Jason Ashton UNUSUAL A fairly typical fight between Ranma and Akane ends with Akane publiccally declaring their engagement over. This has an unusual effect on Ranma, and on Akane for that matter. Ranma and Akane actually taking one of their MANY fights seriously, far more seriously than is warranted actually. ------------------------------------------------ "After All this Time" William Baird ORIGINAL FLAVOUR - T A typical round of events at the Tendo Dojo, Ranma fights Akane, Shampoo goes for Ranma, fights occur at school. Things start to really happen when Nodoka drops by and catches Ranma in his boy form. An interesting attempt to write a "conclusion" of sorts to the Ranma/Akane relationship. Marred in places by repeated use of events that only happened once (early on) in the real series. ------------------------------------------------ "Visits and Revelations" David Bateson ORIGINAL FLAVOUR - TIMELESS Nodoka (Ranma's mother) comes to visit and Ranma has to live a lie once more, but Ranma is getting tired of lying to his mother... Currently incomplete, but part 4 is now available and the next installment is being worked on, honestly. ------------------------------------------------------------- "Ah!! Ranma-Sama??" Richard Beaubien CROSSOVER One day at the Kunou mansion it happened that Kodachi got hold of Sasuke and went out for the day leaving Kunou-Senpai to to fend for himself. Eventually Kunou got hungry enough to deign to eat home-delivered fast food, but when he rang for the food, he got the Goddess Relief Office instead. And for his wish Kunou wanted the love of the pig-tailed girl. Belldany goes to the Ranma-verse to help Kunou Tatewaki win the heart of one of his true loves, Osage no Onna. Is even a goddess up to THIS task? ---------------------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2: Be Careful What You Wish For" Richard Beaubien UNUSUAL SETTING Ranma buys a wishing pendant from an old man and uses it to wish that he had never been cursed. Ranma then finds himself in a world where he lives with his mother, has never been trained in martial arts, has never met the Tendo's and has a sister called Ranko, who is the heir to the family martial arts traditions. An amusing tale placing Ranma in an interesting predicament entirely of his own making. Not yet complete. ---------------------------------------------------------- "Crisis Management Team Nerima" Richard Beaubien UNUSUAL Follows the experiences of Norioka as she tries to cope with the duties involved in cleaning up after the... happenings... that seem to plague this area. A 'Damage Control' type organisation for the Ranma-verse. 3 episodes available. ---------------------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2: A Leap and a Half" Benares CROSSOVER A Quantum Leap - Ranma 1/2 crossover. Dr. Beckett leaps into assorted Ranma 1/2 characters and tries to help Ranma and Akane get along, but why do things keep ending up worse than they were before? At times an interesting story, but Quantum Leap fans will get the most out of it. --------------------------------------------------- "Ranma Trek: The Next Generation" Benares CROSSOVER The voyages of the USS Takahashi, with Captain Saotome and his valiant first officers: Akane, Ukyou, Shampoo and William Riker - Riker's the human one. A spoof of StarTrek:The Next Generation, very irreverent and not above stealing ideas from other SciFi series. ---------------------------------------------------------- "Two Sides of a Coin" Benares UNUSUAL SETTING (Too serious for Takahashi) Follow-up to the Netthouen episode where Happosai accidentally created a demonic female Ranma. What would happen if the magic was done properly and you ended up with 2 Ranma's, 1 male, 1 female? A character drama as various characters try to deal with consequences, currently unfinished but being worked on. ----------------------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2: Predator and Prey" Benares CROSSOVER An alien killing machine, one of the deadly hunters known as Predators has come to Earth to hunt in Tokyo, the Nerima district. And the strongest Prey in town is the martial artist, Saotome Ranma. A Ranma 1/2 - Predator crossover that pits the regulars against an opponent as dangerous as it is unlucky. ----------------------------------------------------------- "Shampoo 1/2: Cat's Cradle" Benares RANMA AND ... (Shampoo and a cat) Shampoo is out chasing Ranma when an accident knocks her into a storm drain, some time later Shampoo-Neko drags herself out of the drains and starts wondering how to get home and human. Interesting in places. -------------------------------------- "Stepping Stones - Ukyou's Tale" Benares UNUSUAL (Mature themes and realistic approaches) A few years after Ranma & Akane's marriage, Ukyou is still running her Okonomiyaki shop and trying to forget that she loves Ranma - without much success. Then a visit from Shampoo brings matters to a head and Ukyou is confronted with some stark choices. A character drama set in the Ranmaverse a few years down the track and with a strong dose of "reality". -------------------------------------- "Putting Your Heart in the Right Place" John Biles ORIGINAL FLAVOUR - CONT. A FanFic that has a fairly standard Ranma 1/2 universe where some key relationships are semi-resolved. Has Cameo appearances by some Ninja High School characters. A long (12+ parts) story that leads into a later work by John Biles. ------------------------------------ "Furinkan Summer" John Walter Biles ORIGINAL FLAVOUR - CONT. Chronicle of the events that occur in Ranma and Akane's final year at Furinkan High. A Sequel to "Putting Your Heart in the Right Place", includes characters and developments different to the standard Ranma universe. An ongoing series, currently 3 parts are publically available. ------------------------------------------ "RanmaPunk2033--The Movie" John Walter Biles CROSSOVER Ranma 1/2 characters operating in the world of BubbleGum Crisis, martial arts vs. hardsuits and other unlikely match-ups. Will Priss fill Ranma full of needles, or will Ranma punch open Priss's hardsuit? A story full of multi-layered plots. ----------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2 Elseworlds " John Walter Biles UNUSUAL SETTING First of a series intended to explore some "what-if's" of the Ranma 1/2 universe in combination with a plot of cosmic proportions that runs through the entire series. A new, and different, series from the prolific Mr. Biles, and others. #1: For want of a nail (What if: Ranma liked Ukyou more than Okonmiyaki?) #2: Lovers no more (What if: Shampoo's first loss was to Tofu-Sensei?) #3: Akane 1/2 (What if: Akane was cursed to turn into a boy?) By Jeffrey Hosmer & JW Biles #4: Looking down the Barrel of a Glomp. (What if: Ranma turned into a Pervert, not a girl.) By Stefan Gagne & JW Biles ---------------------------------------- "Still Waters Run Deep" John Walter Biles CROSSOVER On a class trip to China various members of Tomobiki High get drenched in the Jusenkyo pools, later on they meet some people from Nerima (Ranma & Co) who know ALL about their problem. A Ranma 1/2-Urusei Yatsura Crossover series, some new couples form but is mostly yet more of the same. Good stuff mostly. ---------------------------------------------------------- "Kunou's Excellent Adventure" John Walter Biles ORIGINAL FLAVOUR - TIMELESS Kunou starts a day dreaming of his true loves, Tendo Akane and the pony-tailed girl. Will Kunou chase Akane or Osage no Onna? You decide. A Choose-Your-Own-Adventure about a day in the life of Kunou Tatewaki. Those that enjoy CYOA books will be happy, those that can't stand CYOA books should avoid this FanFic. Those that just want Ranma stories can find an amusing couple of tales buried in these paragraphs. ---------------------------------------------------------- "Ta'avern 1/2: Tales of the Ronin" John Walter Biles & Jeremy Blackman CROSSOVER In the sheltered lands of 2 rivers, Ranma Al'thor lives a comfortable life in a rustic backwater, unaware that he will soon be forced into a war not of his choosing. A Crossover with Ranma 1/2 characters in key roles from Robert Jordan's "Wheel of Time" series of novels. If you don't know the novels, the story will mean little to you - unless you like any story by Mr.Biles. Note: There is a mailing list for discussion & development of this series at taveren@eskimo.com, subscribe by sending mail to Majordomo@eskimo.com with the message body "subscribe taveren". ---------------------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2: Lemonade" JW Biles LEMON (Parody) A story intended to parody Lemon Fanfic's, Alien invasion Fanfic's and Otaku writing themselves into their own stories. A little disjointed but quite funny in places. The Plot revolves around.... actually.... hmm... I'm sure that there was a plot there somewhere... Anyway, read it yourself if you like any of the above classes of story. ---------------------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2: Reality Bites, Hard!" Bruce R. Brunk UNUSUAL After a fairly typical Ranma-Akane argument there is a fairly typical resoulution - Ranma gets sledgehammered through the roof, only when Ranma lands at Tofu Sensei's, he's not dusted off and sent on his way, he's rushed into emergency surgery. A story that focusses on the soul-searching that follows Ranma's hospitalisation. ---------------------------------------------------------- "RavenWorld" Presley H. Cannady and Lou Barnes CROSSOVER (Kungfoolery & Ravens Dew) A tribute to the "Undocumented Features"/"Otaku Rising" style of story featuring the Ranma 1/2 cast and characters from other universes created by Mr. Cannady (and others). A different sort of effort (It's *NOT* Robotech!) from Mr. Cannady. ---------------------------------------------------------- "Ranma no Yume" or "Ranma's Dream" Patrick James Conley ORIGINAL FLAVOUR - TIMELESS Ranma is offered some free food by Shampoo, and generously shares it with Ryouga, Mousse & Genma. But Shampoo has been into the strange chinese herbs again. Amusing 1-off story. --------------------------------------------------------- "Misadventures of a Foreign Exchange Student 2" Pat Conley RANMA AND ... (Ranma and Pat) The american, Pat, flies to Japan to be an exchange student for a year, and gets to stay at the Tendo dojo and experience the wonder of life and education in Japan. A redone version of "Mis-Adventures" by a different author, with a less perfect central character. --------------------------------------------------------- "Sending love letters to Akane? Ranma denies it!" Dave Cotelessa and Larry Mann ORIGINAL FLAVOUR - TIMELESS Akane is receiving love letters, in Ranma's writing. Ranma denies it and tries to find out what is going on. Old story re-worked for InterNet release. ---------------------------------------------------------- "Ryouga: Lost and Found" Orlando de la Cruz ORIGINAL FLAVOUR - TIMELESS (or UNUSUAL, a bit serious for R1/2) Ryouga blunders into a little girl who says that she is lost, and that she wants to stay that way. Ryouga tries to help but is uncertain of what to do, fortunately he follows his nose to Ukyou and she helps him help the girl. A story focussing on Ryouga and Ukyou, no romance or anything, just the two of them trying to help a little girl in two different ways (which clearly shows which of them is more mature and less naive) and ending up with a sort of relationship. ------------------------------------------------------ "Ranma .05" Darren Demaine LEMON A story of how Ranma and Akane become lovers and some of the difficulties and complications that appear as a result of this. An R-Rated story where the gratuitous sex scenes are actually relevant to the plot, are the plot in fact. 3 of 3 parts currently available for volume #1. Response was sufficiently good to provoke at least a second volume... Volume #1 1: Cold Night and a Warm Heart (Akane/Ranma) 2: Being a Good Wife (Shampoo/Akane) 3: The Things We do for Love... (Kunou/Onna-Ranma) Volume #2 1: Accidents Happen (Akane/Ranma) 2: Are You a Man, Or Aren't You? (Ukyou/Ryouga) 3: All Expenses Payed (Nabiki/Kunou) 4: The Best of Times (Akane/Ranma) 5: My Love Shall Never Waver (Shampoo/Mousse) ------------------------------------------------------ "Ranma 1/100th" Darren Demaine ORIGINAL FLAVOUR The story opens with Ranma and Akane agreeing to go on a date together and some of the problems that flow from this. A nice story that attempts to duplicate the zany liveliness of the early Ranma 1/2 stories. Intended to be an "ongoing" set of stories. Vol. #1: A Date that will live in Infamy. ------------------------------------------------------ "The Adventures of Uc-Chan and P-Chan. Collected Works Vol#1" DrkElfMark@Aol.Com and Uchann2@Aol.Com [Real Names not given] UNUSUAL Ranma finds himself in a battle with Kunou, Mousse and Ryouga, but when the battle ends Kunou, Mousse and Ryouga are down - and so is Ranma, with serious injuries. Rushed to hospital Ranma vanishes and is presumed dead, and evidence is found that implicates Kuonji Ukyou and Hibiki Ryouga! Ranma is gone, Ukyou and Ryouga are trying to clear their names while Shampoo and Akane are feeling just a *LITTLE* homicidal about what happened with Ranma. A different sort of beginning. ------------------------------------------------------ "Black Operations 301" Arthur Harvey Edwards UNUSUAL SETTING Follows the actions of a hired assassin as he stalks one of the Ranma 1/2 regulars, and the consequences that follow from his murderous efforts. A world with "cyberpunkish" morals where rules are made to be broken by those with the money and influence. Story not yet complete, it remains to be seen how well it works. ------------------------------------------------------ "Project Ranko" Bridget Engman CROSSOVER A short story of Ranma and Akane fighting their way into school past Kodachi's battle robots and Kunou-sempai's lust. Short and mildly amusing reworking of the plot to "Project A'ko" using characters from Ranma 1/2. ------------------------------------------------------ "Daruma 1/2" Bridget Ellen Engman ORIGINAL FL. - T. Daruma dolls are supposed to inspire their owners to acheive certain goals, and one day Akane buys one to inspire her to write an essay... only the doll is magical, and tries to inspire her to go for what she really wants. Another variation on Ranma & Akane's love-and-quarrels style of getting along, leading up to a romantic (sort of) climax. ------------------------------------------------------ "The Darkening" John D. Evans UNUSAL SETTING Ranma and Company get to use their martial arts skill against ESPer invaders from another dimension who have *LOTS* of battle robots to throw away. Completed story now available. ------------------------------------------------------- "Ranma: Reality 1/2" or "Again!?" John D. Evans ORIGINAL FLAVOUR (I think, it's hard to say) Ranma is having a strange dream that his day is repeating itself, or it it Akane dreaming about Ranma dreaming? A short story of a confusing day for Ranma & Akane. ------------------------------------------------------ "Ranma: Reality 1/2 #2" or "Perchance to Dream" John D. Evans ORIGINAL FLAVOUR - T Shampoo brings in the future vision noodles for Ranma to try, and everyone decides to have their share and see wonderous tings about their future. But once they have had their visions the question is: Can they avoid what they've already seen? Confusing and co-incidental events caused by inexpert use of magic. Similar in style rather than a direct sequel to the first "Reality 1/2". ------------------------------------------------------ "Arrangements" John D. Evans ORIGINAL FLAVOUR Nabiki takes a commission from Ranma to arrange things so that Kodachi won't chase after him any more. Only Kodachi is nullifying Nabiki's arrangements as fast as Nabiki makes them. Whose plan will win out in the end? A Nabiki centered story that shows just how sleazy Nabiki can be, not to mention how little Ranma has learned. ------------------------------------------------------ "Ranma 1/2: Hellbound" Tony Figueroa CROSSOVER Mousse does an unauthorised search of Colognes possessions one day, and finds a strange puzzlebox. After much effort he succeeds in opening it, and is promptly dragged into the realm of the cenobites. Shampoo and Cologne find the puzzlebox amid some grisly remains and realize too late the danger it represents. The entire cast ends up in the realm of the cenobites where supernatural martial arts isn't as effective as they might hope. An entertaining little piece. Some may find it a bit bloody in places, the Cenobites are as nasty and powerful as ever. ------------------------------------------------------ "Day Dreams" Christian Gadekan ORIGINAL FLAVOUR - TIMELESS (with a dash of LEMON) Ukyou, Shampoo, Kodachi, Akane & Ranma spend a few moments thinking about their favourite fantasys. Short but amusing FanFic. ------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2: Version 3.1" Christian Gadekan ORIGINAL FLAVOUR - T A story that has Ranma hit his (her?) head and act feminine, among other events. Draws partly on the "Passion Spice" and "Kasumi's Story" FanFic.s as well as regular Ranma continuity. Part 1 at ftp.std.com, no other parts known, major plot threads hanging. Unlikely to be finished, Christian Gadekan is reported as having lost InterNet access. ----------------------------------------- "Passion Spice - Big Trouble!" Christian Gadekan ORIGINAL FLAVOUR - T Shampoo comes across Colognes supply of Passion Spice while cleaning some cupboards, and promptly decides to feed some to Ranma. Entertaining short story. ---------------------------------------------- "Ranma's Timeslip" or "Ranma 1/2: Actor in the Mirror" Christian Gadekan ORIGINAL FLAVOUR - T Ranma uses the magical Nanban mirror to change the past so that he is never cursed, but while he tries to build a new life he must deal with the last effect of his old life. Interesting re-use of the events of the first few episodes. --------------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2: March of the Pigs" Stefan "Twoflower" Gagne RANMA AND ... (Ryouga and Girlfriend) Ryouga meets some other people who are cursed to turn into pigs, and they decide to "help" him win Akane's heart. Various minor complications do arise however .... including some that Ryouga's new friends brought with them. A Ryouga based story that tries to explore a little of what being a pig is all about. -------------------------------------------------- "Juyza's Lyric" Stefan "Twoflower" Gagne RANMA AND ... (Ukyou and Juyza) A look at some of the goings on in the Nerima district from the point of view of Shiratori Azusa's (of the Golden Pair) brother (Juyza). The pragmatic Juyza scrabbles to make ends meet and understand what is going on. See the typical events around Ranma through the eyes of a (relatively) normal and rational (if self-centered) person. -------------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2: Pulp FanFiction" Stefan "Twoflower" Gagne UNUSUAL SETTING Ryouga is lost, as usual, only this time he's more lost than he's ever been before. Ryouga has found a way to travel between worlds, and now he has to find the way home. A story from Ryouga's viewpoint as he wanders through a number of different Ranma 1/2 realities. -------------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2: Ministry of Confusion" Stefan "Twoflower" Gagne UNUSUAL SETTING In a world of inept but all-powerful government ministries and clones known as "extenders" a young martial artist, Saotome Ranma, tries to avoid being noticed while remaining true to his principles. Then his father buys him an "Akane" model extender as a wife, only this "Akane" doesn't match the specifications sent in for it. As a result Ranma finds that avoiding notice is no longer one of his options. A fairly dark cyber-punkish world heavily influenced by the movie "Brazil" (And probably other sources I don't recognize). Now a complete story in 16 chapters. -------------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2: Give Peace a Chance" Stefan "Twoflower" Gagne RANMA AND ... (Ryouga and his family) Ryouga's older brother, Cosmo, drops by the Tendo dojo to clear up some Hibiki family business. The laid-back half-hippy Cosmo finds the goings on at the Tendo dojo almost as confusing as the dojo finds him, and then the little girl of the Hibiki family drops by to beat up her brothers. A moderately amusing tale. The newly introduced members of the Hibiki family seem a trifle overdone, but the story more-or-less works despite this. -------------------------------------------------- "Wicked Garden" Stefan "Twoflower" Gagne UNUSUAL Strange happenings begin to abound in Nerima when Kodachi manages to create a new sort of potion, one that gives her control over plants. But why does that little girl keep warning her that she's in great danger? A story about Kunou Kodachi, and what flows from one of her experiments in devising new drugs for use on her enemies... and friends. -------------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2: A Gift for Her" Paul Gallegos ORIGINAL FLAVOUR - T It's Valentines day and everyone in the dojo is interested in what Ranma & Akane are going to give each other, and then there's what Shampoo & Kodachi want to give Ranma. An Akane-Ranma "I like you, I fight you" story. ------------------------------------------------ "Ranma 1/2 - Better late than Never" Paul Gallegos ORIGINAL FLAVOUR - T Ranma gets hit on the head by Akane (again) and develops an interesting problem. Attempts to advance the relationship between Ranma & Akane. ------------------------------------------ "The Ko Ryu 18 Steps" Dave Gao ORIGINAL FLAVOUR - T (Maybe Unusual Setting, the power level is excessive...) In the realm of the Musk Dynasty of China, a demon bound for many centuries breaks free, defeating Prince Herb as it does. The demon then transports itself to Japan where it attacks Ranma, who puts up a good fight, good enough that the demon kidnaps Akane and challenges Ranma to a serious duel. How serious Ranma only finds out when Cologne arrives. If Ranma loses Akane will become a "Dragons Bride", and the demon will destroy the Earth! A humourous yet serious story that is an interesting variation on the "enemy of the week" theme. ------------------------------------------ "Ranma 1/2: Strange Worlds Collide" Ronald Gil RANMA AND ... (Ranma and Rei) The wandering martial-artist, Rei, encounters Happosai on a rampage and helps the mob nail him. Rei then finds himself fighting a battle that eventually takes him to his destination, the rumoured dojo where "Anything Goes Martial Arts" is studied.

My Goddess. ------------------------------------------ "The Road not Travelled" Ricardo Martinez Garza LEMON Set when Ranma and his wives are in their early 30's, it uses a series of flashbacks to tell the tale of how Ranma managed to end up married to Akane, Ukyou and Shampoo. Entertaining LEMON scenes, some serious discussion and a fair bit of comedy. ------------------------------------------ "Akane's Deleryium" Stuart George CROSSOVER (AMG!) In a universe where Akane and Ranma live in Melbourne (Australia), Akane has a fight with Ranma and decides to respond to an add in a womens magazine, the add being placed by 'Urd, Love Goddess of Yggrasdil'. An unusal piece of work, written in a style with a lot of Australian slang (More that most of us Aussies would ever dream of using in fact). 1 part currently available. ------------------------------------------ "Raging Mousse" Brian Gilmore UNUSUAL SETTING (Too serious for Takahashi) Experience the thoughts, drives and motivations of Mousse from his own point of view. Enter the mind of a man obsessed. An unusual choice for the point of view, unfortunately appears to be an incomplete series. Author is reported to have lost interest in Anime so the story is unlikely to be finished. ------------------------------------------------------ "Shampooing a Moose" Lee Ginther LEMON Shampoo drags a beaten Moose home one day, and then does what is both a treat and a torment for a captive duck. An R-rated story of Shampoo indulging herself, and how Moose fails to control himself. ------------------------------------------------------ "Fighting Ranma. The Serious Anime - The Story of the Cursed Ninja Warrior" Gretton UNUSUAL SETTING Fighting Ranma, the cursed warrior seeks to make his master proud and to uphold the noblest cliches in the martial arts genre.

(Ranma and Darkwind) Hidden in the background of the world are powerful groups of natural shapeshifters, and at least one group is just a fraction homicidal about keeping itself pure. To the point where it hunts down unwanted shapeshifters... and shapeshifters have been reported in the Nerima district of Tokyo. The adventures endured by the Ranma 1/2 cast as Darkwind saves them from a bunch of unnecessarily homicidal shape-changers. ------------------------------------------------------ "Ranma 1/2: Hot Fighting Gundams - Mobile Suit P-Chan" Blair Heald and (Ranma-kun) UNUSUAL SETTING P-Chan, Akane and Ranma in Mobile suits. Pick where the fight comes from. Very Short spoof. -------------------------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/1" Richard Hempsey LEMON Ranma sneaks into Akanes room at night, wanting to keep his love for her a secret from the rest of the dojo, though the secret is not as well kept as Ranma & Akane like to think. An R-Rated story of Ranma & Akane, features meaningful dialogue and sex. ------------------------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2: Girls' Night Out" Jeffrey Paul Hosmer UNUSUAL SETTING (Too rational for Takahashi ^_^) Ranma has been duped by Shampoo into dating her (again), so Akane and Ukyou decide to go off and have a good time without Ranma.

A spinoff from the Ranma University series. A more serious effort at mixing ST:TNG and Ranma 1/2, started before RanmaTrek but took longer to be publically released. Two episodes Now available: 1.

Going where they haven't been before. -------------------------------------------------------- "Kurama 1/2" Kristin Laura Huntsman CROSSOVER Kurama travels with some friends and family from Japan to China on a martial arts training trip. After some unusual encounters and a brief stop at the village of the chinese amazons, Kurama and co. arrive at the training grounds. The Jusenkyoo Springs. What happens during the traing session is easily guessed. A Crossover that concentrates on characters taken from "Yuu Yuu Hakusho" in the Ranma 1/2 universe. Various Ranma 1/2 characters have cameo parts. -------------------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2 Lemon - Only 2000 Yen" Kristin Laura Huntsman LEMON Ranma and Akane have yet another fight, but after its over Nabiki talks Akane into making up with Ranma in an effort to win a bet with Kasumi. Ranma and Akane getting very close together, and a little background as to why. ------------------------------------------------------------- "A Son's Duty" Hitomi Ichinohei UNUSUAL (Serious) A story from Ukyou's point of view. Gives some details of her family life and obligations - and some problems that flow from these. A serious and 'realistic' look at how Ukyou lives, not really in keeping with the fragments shown by Takahashi-san but interesting all the same. ------------------------------------------------------------- "The Seduction of Ataru" Matt J. LEMON (and CROSSOVER) One day at the beach Ataru gloms onto Kuonji Ukyou, who gets caught in the ZAP that follows. Later on Ukyou offers to help Lum with catching Ataru and has soon enlisted Ranma (and Akane) as 'demonstrators' as Ukyou attempts to teach Lum the way to an Earthmans heart. Five connected tales of the goings on amongst the cast of Ranma and UY that result from Lum and Ukyou meeting. Guest stars Kei and Yuri, the 'Lovely Angels'. ------------------------------------------------------------- "Ace of Hearts" S. James ORIGINAL FLAVOUR - T A "Villan of the week" story in a standard Ranma 1/2 universe. Can Ranma deal with the mysterious Ace of Hearts? A short 1-off story. ------------------------------------------------------ "Ranma. . . is that you?" S. James UNUSUAL SETTING The story opens with Ranma apparently falling to his death and then jumps 20 years into the future where Ranma's friends are given reason to wonder: Did Ranma really die? Shows a really unpleasant future and has an interesting view of what characters would do with no Ranma. ------------------------------------------------------ "A matter of pride" S. James ORIGINAL FLAVOUR - T Ranma manages to offend Happosai more than usual, and suddenly finds that he's losing fights that should be sure things, only the people who beat him up later claim to have no knowledge of the fights. Complete story at ftp.std.com. ------------------------------------------------------ "Could it be. . .? At last! The nannichuan!" S. James (author), John D. Evans (editor) ORIGINAL FLAVOUR - T (Heavy weighting to Anime style) A mysterious being announces a fighting contest, offering anything the winner wants as the prize. The entire Ranma cast of regulars, plus the guest stars of the first & second movies turn up to do battle for the prize. A Ranma 1/2 fight-fest. Entertaining for the fight scenes, though certain other scenes have the cast scale new heights in tunnel-vision. -------------------------------------------------------- "Symposiums of Chaos" S. James ORIGINAL FL. - T. A cloaked stranger battles and captures Ranma, Ryouga, Kunou and Mousse (the stranger also captues Gosunkugi, but that wasn't much of a battle). Ranma's girls then line up to go rescue the boys in a variation to the usual way kidnappings around Nerima go. The story is entertaining and fits in with the movies view of Ranma 1/2 fairly nicely. -------------------------------------------------------- "Video Girl Ranma" Robert Ja Kang CROSSOVER Ranma brings home a "Video Girl" tape to amuse himself with, and suddenly finds himself with a "real" girl to cause him yet more problems. A Video Girl Ai / Ranma 1/2 crossover - Ranma rents the video girl and has to deal with her. ------------------------------------------------------ "Bubblegum Splash" Mike Koos CROSSOVER A less serious case of Ranma 1/2 characters in a Bubblegum Crisis style universe. Features menaces such as the "Azusa" & "Happosai" model Bumas. 8 episodes known to exist. -------------------------------------------------------- "Ryouga: The Shampoo Variation" Mark Latus UNUSUAL SETTING On his wanderings Ryouga meets a strange old man who offers to help Ryouga with some of his problems. The old man then shows Ryouga what might have been had things gone a little differently when Shampoo first came to Japan, not knowing of Ranma's curse. A "What-if" type story similar in concepts to JW Biles "Elseworlds" storyline. ------------------------------------ "Ryouga: Crossover" Mark Latus UNUSUAL SETTING One day at the Tendo dojo Ranma, Akane, P-chan and the rest of the residents are sitting around doing their usual thing (Kasumi cooked, Nabiki schemed, Ranma & Akane argued, etc...) when Ryouga came in and asked to see his fiance, Nabiki. While people tried to understand what was going on, P-Chan went out and ANOTHER Ryouga walked in. And that was only the beginning of the surprises in store for the dojo. A follow-up to "The Shampoo Variation" that uses the concept of multiple universes, each with their own Ryouga, to create an unusual collection of characters. Turns fairly dark towards the end. ------------------------------------ "GuyverRyouga/Ryouga 1/2: Worlds in Collision" Mark Latus Hibiki Ryouga had thought his life had been thrown into chaos when he found the Guyver unit, but he soon found that the latest events involving his ongoing struggle with the KRONOS conspiracy to be even more confusing. He was being sent to strange new worlds, where there were other versions of him! A continuation of some of the themes used in "Shampoo Variation" and "Crossover". Multiple Universes in collision and time travel to truely screw things up. ------------------------------------ "Ranma 1/2 - Elseworlds: On a Pale Horse" Nathan Lowery UNUSUAL SETTING While watching a movie about America's wild west, Ranma gets into yet another argument with Akane. After being pounded into unconsciousness Ranma dreams of what it would have like to have lived in the old west, when women weren't as violent. The Ranma 1/2 cast in a typical western, where the ultimate martial art is called "The Quickdraw". NOTE: To the best of my knowledge, this story is not connected to JW Biles "Elseworlds" series. ------------------------------------ "8 Days a Week" Nigel M. RANMA AND ... (Nabiki and Isamu) A new character, the wealthy Hentaii Isamu, moves into the same street as the Tendo dojo and soon finds himself drawn into the typical happenings around Ranma & Co. A fairly typical character, wealthy, skilled in Phillipino stick fighting and with a dose of common sense alien to the world of Ranma. His most outstanding feature is his romance with Nabiki. ------------------------------------ "The More Things Change" Rod M. ORIGINAL FL. - C. A tale of the Ranmaverse after Ranma and Akane declare their love for each other and agree to marry. Follows the adventures of Ryouga as he trys to deal with this... and a number of very confusing developments that start to bedevil his life. Ryouga-centric tale with lots of new characters and strange plot twists, not to mention the occasional cameo appearance from other universes. ------------------------------------ "Blue Thunder Rising" Rod M. ORIGINAL FL. - T. In the days before Ranma came to Nerima, the undisputed champion of the area was Kunou Tatewaki. This is his story, telling how he came to be the way he is. A fun look at life before Ranma. The story is entertaining and the ending a must for fans of Kunou-Sempai. ------------------------------------ "Being a Good Loser" Ross McKenzie ORIGINAL FL. - T. After a training session with Ranma, Akane gets told by Soun that they are going on a field trip to improve her skills. Ranma stays at the Dojo alone and is soon trying to fend off his other fiances without Akane's help. Ranma and Akane portrayed in a story that could slot right into the "real" ranmaverse. ------------------------------------ "Akane por Siempre" Oscar Octavio Mascare UNUSUAL SETTING A dark story about a tragic event in the Tendo dojo. Can Ranma and the others go on with this harsh test fate has brought upon them? A story about courage with a few plot twists. (NOTE: The title is in Spanish) -------------------------------------------------------- "The Ranma / Golgo-13 Crossover" Me CROSSOVER Golgo-13 takes a contract on a Ranma 1/2 regular, only to find that he's getting into a "MORTAL KOMBAT". Short but amusing spoof. ------------------------------------ "The Shuriken Cycle" Tim Miller RANMA AND .... (Ranma and Shuriken) The mysterious and powerful Shuriken arrives at the Tendo dojo to study the unrestricted style of martial arts, and to teach his own amazing brand of martial arts to the entire Ranma 1/2 cast. A story focussed on Shuriken and the trials his coming heralds. ------------------------------------ "Ranma 1/2: Life's Dulse Moments" Leslie Mills ORIGINAL FLAVOUR - T Shampoo buys some more magic herbs to try on Ranma, only the salesperson is Kodachi in disguise. In the meantime Akane makes lunch for Ranma while Ukyou takes revenge on Happosai. Events come to a head when Shampoo feeds Ranma a meal that leaves him unable to speak without making a pun, and Kodachi has the only cure on the eastern side of the Pacific Ocean. The story entertains and always has something happening, and those that enjoy a bad pun (as opposed to a tolerable pun) will be in their element. ------------------------------------------------------ "Mis-Adventures of a Foreign Exchange Student" Pearson "Doc" Mui RANMA AND ... (Ranma and Pat) An american Pen-pal of Nabiki's arrives to spend some time studying at Furinkan High and gets involved with the goings on at the Tendo Dojo. Most memorable for a main character that was so wise, noble, perceptive and skillful that (IMHO) he shut all other characters out of the story. ------------------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2: Demoness with Green Eyes" Wesley Orr UNUSUAL SETTING and LEMON Mousse meets a strange girl one day, and is slowly but surely drawn into her plots. Just how strange the girl is gets revealed after Mousse signs a contract with her... What exactly does she mean, Life first, then body and finally soul? A story for the Mousse fans, trys to show Mousse as an important and powerful character. Involves the occasional lightweight sex scene as a distraction. ------------------------------------------------------ "Ranma Lemonade Punch" Paladin LEMON.. Happosai's brother Hentosai drops by to visit, and the Tendo's discover that Happosai is considered the "squeamish" and "restrained" one of his family. The first episode is a straight forward setup, the second episode is where the lemon is. (NOTE: The 2nd episode is distributed by the author, see episode 1 for details). ------------------------------------------------------ "Winter" J. Palmer ORIGINAL FLAVOUR - T During a winter snowstorm Ranma gets unexpectedly wet and finds Akane using the bath, but the water is hot and the bath is big enough for two.... A short relationship building story. ------------------------------------------------- "Spring" J. Palmer ORIGINAL FL. - T. During a sunny spring meal Akane notices that Ranma has wandered off without his desert, so she takes it to him. On the roof Ranma and Akane share the view and have a quiet talk. More relationship building by Ranma & Akane. No arguments or violence, just talk (Hmmm... Maybe I should class this story as "UNUSUAL" ^_- ). ------------------------------------------------- "Summer" J. Palmer ORIGINAL FL. - T. Ranma and Akane walk quietly along a beach during a summer vacation, just talking and 'being' with each other. The 3rd of the 'seasons' stories, more quiet, but effective romance. ------------------------------------------------- "Autumn" J. Palmer ORIGINAL FL. - T. One pleasant autumn day Ranma and Akane get left to rake up the leaves in the Tendo yard. In the process they both lower their defences and actually be nice to one another. More romance and quiet talk, the finale of Mr. Palmers 'Seasons' stories. ------------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2 - Parallel Lines" Micheal Pederson UNUSUAL SETTING Ranma blunders into an alternate timeline and sets out to build a life free of the problems that beset his old one. A sequel to Christian Gadekans "Timeslip", develops some of the ideas and situations there further. ------------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2 Special: The Master of the Drunken Fist" Chris J. Randolph ORIGINAL FL. - T. Many years ago the Nemui school of Martial arts was defeated by the Anything-Goes school. Now, having heard of Ranma after a chance encounter with Ryouga, Yoshu of the Nemui School seeks to redeem the one defeat his school ever suffered. Currently 1 episode available, seems to be following a "villan of the week" storyline. ------------------------------------------------- "Chiesai - Dreams of Darkness" Shannon M. Richmeyer UNUSUAL SETTING The Tendo sisters suffer from nightmares that are the prelude to an attack by an evil force from another dimension. After the sisters are kidnapped and Ranma's male body somehow stolen the characters get together and pursue the evil into it's own world. An atmospheric and evocative opening promising great things. Unfortuneately the rest of the story fails to deliver, becoming a predictable and boring fantasy story instead. ------------------------------------------------- "Haiku - A Love Story" Shannon M. Richmeyer UNUSUAL SETTING The Ghost's of the dragon Haiku's dead (human) lovers select an unhappy and reeling Ryouga Hibiki to be her next lover. Unfortuneately Haiku comes with a potent set of enemies in addition to her ghosts - and before Ryouga & Haiku can know happiness they must survive the ambitions of those who seek to bind a dragons power. A straight-forward story filled with 'Highlander' style flashbacks to Haiku's past. Ryouga is the only Ranma 1/2 character in the story. ------------------------------------------------- "NightShadow" Shannon M. Richmeyer (aka Windlily) UNUSUAL Ranma-Chan encounters a stranger with glowing eyes who soon exerts a powerful spell over her. Back at the dojo people rapidly notice that something is wrong, but nothing can prepare Akane for the life and death struggle she is forced into to save Ranma. An unusual and well-paced story, the few touches of romance and concern fit in nicely and make a pleasant change from the cloying sentimentality of Haiku and Cheisai. ------------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2: The Darker Half" Karl Rim UNUSUAL SETTING Ranma's world is invaded by supernatural forces into creating vampire hordes and brainwashing captured resistance fighters, a grim and gritty story that works the characters over quite throughly. Cameos by some Kimagure Orange Road characters. The "original" Ranma 1/2 invasion story, watch out for the fake ending. One of my all-time favourite FanFic's. -------------------------------------------- "The Panda King" Karl Rim UNUSUAL SETTING (Too many Gods) Cologne leads Ranma and the rest of the crew to the holy heavenly temple, only to have the turtle god mistake Genma for his old enemy, the Panda King. 2 episodes available publically, next episode reported to be completed and awaiting public release. -------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2: The UY Connection" Karl Rim CROSSOVER (A good one) In the volleyball championship match Furinkan High prepares to do battle with Tomobiki High. Will the martial arts skill of Ranma & Co overcome the alien technology and raw power of Lum and her friends? Will the stadium be there at the end of the match? Written as a break from "Darker Half", fast moving laughs in a compact package. ------------------------------------------------- "Kasumi's Story" Karl Rim ORIGINAL FLAVOUR - T One of Ranma and Akane's fights gets out of hand and manages to include Kasumi in the collateral damage. When Kasumi recovers from the blow her personality has changed a little..... Kasumi refuses to do housework and sets out to have a good time. Will Kasumi recover? Will the dojo survive Akane's idea of housework? A complete story that explores Kasumi's importance to the Tendo Dojo. ------------------------------------------------------- "Jusenkyuu Crisis: The saga of the Kasumi Sabres" Karl Rim. CROSSOVER Ranma 1/2 Characters in a Bubblegum Crisis type world where the menace is a company that manufactures "Jusenkers", creatures created by a mis-use of the magic of the Jusenkyo pools. Series still ongoing, at least there is an ongoing storyline not yet finished. NOTE: Karl is reported to be continuing all his unfinished stories, but has difficulty accessing the InterNet. -------------------------------------------------------- "An American Gaijin in Nerima, Tokyo" or "Those Obnoxious Foreigners" Karl Rim RANMA AND... (Ranma and Scott) Scott White arrives in Japan as part of a foreign exchange program. He is supposed to stay at a place called the Tendo Dojo. He finds that one of his first challenges in Japan is finding where he is supposed to end up when no one meets him at the airport... pity he doesn't speak Japanese. A story meant to be an answer to all the tales about 'perfect' characters visiting the Tendo Dojo and solving the romantic problems of the characters while saving the earth. -------------------------------------------------------- "Split Personalities" Roy Rim LEMON One day Pansuto Taro returns to the Tendo Dojo to repeat his effort to use the "Twins Water" on Happosai, in the efforts to stop him the water gets splashed all over Ranma. But Jusenkyo curses don't interact rationally and suddenly there is a male Ranma AND a female Ranma, and neither is cursed! But then, neither is exactly the same as Ranma used to be.. An exploration of an idea on how to split Ranma into 2, and potential side effects. Starts out as a story-orientated FanFic with a little "LEMON" on the side, then changes to a LEMON-fest. The story (while still interesting) becomes a means of connecting sex scenes more than anything else. Side Stories: #1: Ranko's Dangerous Night (by Leon Chen, mild LEMON) #2: Lili's Story (by Roy Rim, violence but no LEMON) ----------------------------------------------------- "Split Personalities - no Hentai" Roy Rim UNUSUAL A re-writing of the "Split Personalities" storyline with the explict sex removed. An effort to highlight the "Split Personalities" story and to make it more acceptable. Currently 1 section released. ----------------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2 Halloween Special 1995" Roy Rim, Kensu (Chris Schumacher), JW Biles and Stefan Gagne UNUSUAL Three stories written for Halloween by the above authors in a sort of collaboration. 1: The Halloween party - The Kunou's throw a Halloween party. 2: I shall Love you Eternally - Dealing with the spirit of the girl who drowned at Jusenkyo 3: Money - Nabiki finds that she has done a deal with the devil ----------------------------------------------------- "To Die" Roy Rim CROSSOVER (Nuku-Nuku and Godzilla) The TV blares forth the warning - "Godzilla is coming!", and throughout Tokyo people rush to prepare. In Nerima the citizens prepare to flee, at military HQ weapons are readied while at the central office of Mishima Heavy Industries more weapons are readied, including a certain cat-brained android. A look at Ranma & Co caught up in a life-or-death event completely beyond their control. ----------------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2: Final Solution - What a couple of dips" Joe Rispoli and Mike Termena ORIGINAL FLAVOUR - C (A silly story) A story that has Ranma and Akane resolve their relationship once and for all, after Ranma gets stuck permanently as a girl. An old FanFic written for the Dayton Anime Club and later released onto the InterNet. ----------------------------------------- "Dear Diary" Neil Robertson ORIGINAL FL. - T. Nabiki records her thoughts in her diary after an eventful day where she visited the public baths with her sisters and then tried to get some photo's of Ranma. Nabiki's very personal point of view of a fairly typical day in the Ranmaverse. ----------------------------------------- "Here is Saotomewood" Daniel J. Ross CROSSOVER (Here is Greenwood) Ryouga Hibiki begins attending his new school a few weeks late, and finds his dormitory, "Saotomewood", to be full of strange characters. A combination of "Here is Greenwood" and "Ranma 1/2", placing the characters of Ranma 1/2 in a "Greenwood" style environment. ----------------------------------------- "Tales of Ranma & Nabiki" Jeff Rutsch UNUSUAL (Alternate Universe) One fine day at the Tendo Dojo, Genma Saotome and his son, Ranma, arrive to fulfill an old agreement between Soun & Genma. Shortly after the arrival Ranma is engaged to Tendo Nabiki, Soun's 2nd daughter. A set of stories that retells the early series, with one minor difference, at least only one to start with. ----------------------------------------- "Take off your clothes" Jeff Rutsch UNUSUAL At first Akane, then Akane, Kasumi and Nabiki start making an odd little request of Ranma-Chan. Strange little vigenette, gives Ranma's view of a series of weird happenings and ends without explaining a thing. ----------------------------------------- "Ranma Trek - The Next Generation and a Half" Jeff Rutsch CROSSOVER While on an historical survey mission to the past, the NCC-1701D encounters a strange alien ship, and soon key members of the crew are behaving... very oddly and are displaying skills they didn't previously have, not to mention those that find themselves changing their shape when they get wet. A different sort of Ranma 1/2 - Next Gen. crossover, which makes as much sense as any of the others. ----------------------------------------- "Differing Realities" Steven Rychetnik RANMA AND ... (Ranma and Steven) Steven Rychetnik arranges to use some expensive studio equipment in a quiet canadian town, and is surprised to discover two people who look like Ranma and Akane there after he has a day of playing with anime tapes. Ranma and Akane in the real world meeting real people. ----------------------------------------- "The Ranma 1/2 Broadcasting Network" Steven Rychetnik UNUSUAL SETTING The Saotome and Tendo news team reads off the events of the early Ranma 1/2 series as a News Broadcast. A retelling of the Ranma 1/2 story in an amusingly different way. ----------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2: The Crys Saga" Chris Schumacher RANMA AND ... (Ranma and Crys) One day as he was leaving a con the otaku "Crys" is offered a rare Ranma 1/2 manga volume. After some searching "Crys" manages to scrape up the cash to buy it, but as soon as he starts to read it "Crys" finds himself catapulted into the world of Ranma 1/2, where his very nature grants him strange and vast powers. Quirky tale of otaku wish-fulfillment. The otaku in question comes across as too wise and too powerful, but that's normal for this sort of story. The Crys Saga has ended with 24 episodes, a plot sheet for some later episodes that were planned but never written is also available. Spin-Off: The RITS Files (by ryouga@delphi.com) ----------------------------------------- "Mamono Hunter Ranma 1/2" Chris Schumacher CROSSOVER After some weird events one day at school Ranma Saotome is informed by his grandfather (Saotome Genma) that he is the 108th Mamono Hunter of the Saotome line. Ranma is then given the powers of the Saotome line, the ability to call the soulsword and the demon-hunter form - invoked by jumping in cold water. A crossover in the "Sailor Ranma" style, with the Ranma cast in the situation of Mamono Hunter Yohko. ----------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2: The Outer Darkness" Chris Schumacher UNUSUAL SITUATION A starship of the galactic empire comes across Earth, and notices that the locals have the right sort of life energy to be drained into the imperial energy reserve. The locals have no chance against imperial technology, but an imperial renegade, who thinks genocide is a bad way to power the empire, upsets the equation. But is one man enough to stop an imperial warship? An extremely black storyline with a high bodycount (including Ranma 1/2 regulars!) that seems to be partly inspired by the movie "The Hidden", with a few minor elements from "Mobile Suit Gundam". ----------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2: I only have a nose for you." Chris Schumacher (The Penitent) ORIGINAL FL. - T. After yet another duel with Ryouga, Ranma finds that his curse has been... altered. Follows Ranma & Akane trying to work out what happened. Amusing little short. ----------------------------------------- "Hemispheres" Chris Schumacher ORIGINAL FL. - T. After getting dosed with some unusual (and magical) food Ranma discovers that he has split into two - boy-Ranma and girl-Ranma. A new storyline from Mr. Schumacher, but only 1 episode is currently out. ----------------------------------------- "Viewpoints" Steven Scougall UNUSUAL Two different, but overlapping, stories. 1: The Morning After. - Ranma has some strange dreams. 2: A Night of Dreams - Akane fights with Ranma then dreams of him later that night. Entertaining stories into soul-searching and serious conversation, but with a strong dose of "weird" on the side. ----------------------------------------- "Ranma Nibunnoichi - The Wedding" Caroline Ann Seawright LEMON Genma and Soun decide that Ranma & Akane will get along much better once they're married, so they set up a wedding. Ranma & Akane are not exactly overjoyed when they're eventually told about it, but neither backs out. After some minor problems with other cast members Akane is Mrs. Saotome and Ranma takes her on her honeymoon... Involves much soul-searching, some comedy and a little bit of Romance before the wedding, then earns it's classification with a detailed account of the wedding night. ----------------------------------------- "Ranma Nibunnoichi - University" Caroline Ann Seawright LEMON A sequel to "The Wedding", follows Ranma & Akane's efforts to live as a married couple while attending university. And of some unexpected complications that arise from their carelessness. The story is long on semi-realistic problems and LEMON bits, but is a little short of "traditional" Ranma 1/2 comedy. ----------------------------------------- "Ranma Nibunnoichi - Forget Me Not" Caroline Ann Seawright LEMON A follow on to "University" - Ranma and Akane are married, and Akane is pregnant, but despite all this Cologne is still determined to win Ranma for Shampoo and is willing to go to any lengths necessary to succeed. A story that has Ranma rushing around seeking the things he needs to save Akane from Colognes latest plot. More comedy and less realism than it's predecessors, but the LEMON bits are still around. Available via WWW at: http://yoyo.cc.monash.edu.au/~kunoichi/ran_for.txt ----------------------------------------- "Ranma Nibunnoichi - Side Stories" Caroline Ann Seawright LEMON In the universe of "The Wedding", "University" and "Forget Me Not" the lesser characters are given their own hour of fame in this collection of LEMON (mostly) side stories telling what goes on back at Nerima while Ranma and Akane are off at University. Available via WWW at: http://yoyo.cc.monash.edu.au/~kunoichi/ran_side.txt ----------------------------------------- "Ranma Jijou" Dov Sherman ORIGINAL FLAVOUR After an unfortunate wish, Ryouga is turned into an exact copy of Ranma and he teams up with Shampoo & Cologne to make Ranma's life so miserable that Ranma will want to leave Japan (with Shampoo). Entertaining, shows clearly that Ryouga does not really think things through. Shampoo & Cologne's plan is not one that will leave him with a lot. ------------------------------------------ "Who's Jealous" J. Smiley (a.k.a. Pepe) ORIGINAL FL. - T. Ukyou tries to convince Akane that Ryouga is the right sort of guy for her while Ranma listens in. Then when Akane says nice things about Ryouga sparks start to fly and Ranma is forced to confront how he feels about Akane. A character drama with people making fools of themselves. Ends a bit too neatly though. ----------------------------------------- "Happosai's Curse" J. Smiley (a.k.a. Pepe) ORIGINAL FL. - T. Ranma (girl) get pawed over by Happosai again and throws things at Happosai as Happosai run's off laughing, until the glass of water knocks him out of sight. When Ranma follows up to pound Happosai some more, Happosai is gone and a wet puppy is in the corridor. Ranma jumping to conclusions and digging an embarrassing hole for himself. ----------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2: The Last Day" Greg Smith ORIGINAL FL. - T. Soun and Genma receive news that terrifys them into trying to flee the Dojo, but when they're caught preparing to sneak out they find themselves compelled to face the threat. And all the Ranma 1/2 regulars drop around to help defend the dojo (making Nabiki wonder if the dojo will be there to defend). A new storyline, 1 episode currently public. ----------------------------------------- "Twisted Path" Darren Steffler RANMA AND ... (Ranma and Twister) Happosai summons a demon to cause problems for Ranma, but due to a miscast spell gets a demon-lord instead. The Demon-Lord promptly tricks Happosai into freeing it, but before it can cause too much damage Twister arrives with a grudge to fulfill... The story that shows that you too can be all-powerful in your own story, still is better done than "MisAdventures of a Foreign Exchange Student", all powerful is easier to handle than completely perfect. ----------------------------------------------------------- "Twisted Path 2" Darren Steffler RANMA AND ... (Nabiki and Twister) Continues the adventures of Twister in the Ranma 1/2 universe, focussing on the relationship between Nabiki and Twister as they enter an unusual Japanese University, with an unusual (or normal for Ranma 1/2) assortment of characters. Twisters overwhelming power shows more clearly in this story as the counters to it appear to be both less powerful and less intelligently used. The dedicated Ranma fans will also find the Ranma regulars pushed very much into the background by Twister and the new characters. NOTE: Twisted Path 3 is now available at ftp.std.com, but it is not included in this list as it is a Bubblegum Crisis FanFic and has nothing to do with Ranma 1/2. ----------------------------------------------------------- Untitled [Jeeves and the Jusenkyo Waters] - A Ranma 1/2-Jeeves Crossover. Gavin Steyn CROSSOVER (sort of) The unflappable Jeeves finds that his master has a small problem when some old souvienirs of an expedition to China, the Jusenkyo Region to be precise, are thrown carelessly away. More a Jeeves story using plot elements from Ranma than a true crossover. No Ranma 1/2 characters appear and the humour is "British" rather than slapstick. Good all the same. -------------------------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2 - The fall of the Eagle" James Stone UNUSUAL SETTING (World War II) The American agent, Saotome Ranma, parachutes into occupied France to help the French resistance fight Nazi Germany. The characters are in interesting roles and have new nationalities (lucky for them, who'd want to be Japanese in WWII?) remains to be seen how the story comes together. -------------------------------------------------------------- "The Game of the Gods" James Stone UNUSUAL SETTING / CROSSOVER In the home of the anime gods two gods argue about who can do the better universe and they decide to resolve the argument by swapping universes for a while. Thus it comes to pass that the cast of Ranma 1/2 get to remake Tenchi Muyo while the cast of Tenchi tries to remake part of Ranma 1/2. A silly spoof of both series featuring many cameo's from other anime universes. Uneven but very good at its best. NOTE: This entry refers only to parts 1+2 of "Game of the Gods" as later parts of this series do not use any Ranma 1/2 characters or settings. -------------------------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2 - The Lemon Series" James "Kamakazi" Stone LEMON Various members of the cast from Ranma 1/2 indulging themselves during those moments when they were off screen. Pick where in which TV-episode this episode is taking place. An R-Rated FanFic featuring explict sexual activity.

Yuriko's Breakthrough! 11: Could I have this Dance? Ranma's on Stage! Christmas 1994 Special: "Believing is Seeing" Valentines Day 1995 Special: "Will You be Mine? Bittersweet Holidays" 12: Face to Face! Lardizabal Meets His Match! 13: Coincidence? or... The Prince of Ill-Luck! 14: Tag Team Action! Partners with Attitudes! ----------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2: Monkey Business" David Tai and Paul Gallegos ORIGINAL FLAVOUR - T / CROSSOVER Akane and Ranma have a fight that ends with Ranma accepting a dare to take Akane on a date, but why does that monkey keep following them? And did Happosai mean it when he swore revenge on Ranma that morning? A story in 5 chapters that mixes Ranma 1/2 & chinese myth. ---------------------------------------------- "The Cursed Cure" Albert Pascal Tanone ORIGINAL FLAVOUR - T Genma and Soun decide to send Ranma off on a training trip in the hope that time apart will make Ranma and Akane more inclined to friendship, and less to violence. Then Cologne gives them terrible news, they have set in motion events that could lead to Ranma's death! A Fanfic that looks at how far Ranma would go for a cure to his curse. ---------------------------------------------- "Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Ranma" Stephen Tsai and Regius Gunawan CROSSOVER The talking pig, P-Chan, recruits a normal Ranma to become one of the sailor senshi ... oops, P-Chan forgot to mention the Bishoujo, much to Ranma's displeasure. Ranma and his iinazuke(s) in a different sort of situation, fighting the Dark Kingdom as the Sailor Senshi. A well done mix of Sailor Moon and Ranma 1/2, know both series to get all the references. ----------------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2: Kanketsuhen '93" Richard Uyeyama ORIGINAL FLAVOUR Ukyou is kidnapped, and Ranma sets off to rescue her. Shampoo comes along to help Ranma survive, Akane comes along to save Ranma from Shampoo. But why was Ukyou kidnapped in the first place... Posted as the script to the final Ranma Movie for an april fools day joke in '93, still nailing victims a year and a half later. -------------------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2 - Ranma versus the Joker" Vegita1941 CROSSOVER (Batman - animated series) Tired of losing to the Batman, the Joker heads off to Japan for some recreational mayhem well away from the caped crusader. Once in Japan the Joker wanders from silly crime to stupid crime, culminating in a fight with the cast of Ranma 1/2. Some nice trys at humour, stupid enough to be a parody, but ultimely pointless. -------------------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2 - Final Appeal" Mark Visser ORIGINAL FLAVOUR Just another normal day at the Tendo dojo when they get the News that Saotome Nodoka is dropping by for yet another visit. Eventually Ranma and Genma are talked out of leaving on a training trip and into hanging around as "Ranko" & "Panda-san". But when Nodoka arrives, Nabiki decides to sort things out for the Saotomes... without telling Ranma & Genma first. Another version of how Ranma and his mother will get to meet openly. -------------------------------------------------------- "Aa! Megami-Sensei!" Peter Ward CROSSOVER The goddess Urd gets bored hanging around the temple alone while Belldandy, Keiichi and Skuld have other things to do. In a fit of 'sympathy' Skuld dares Urd to get a job if she's so bored... Urd decides to try it and ends up as a teacher (speciality: Discipline) at Furinkan High School. Urd as one of Nabiki & Kunou's teachers, with a host of "Teenagers from OuterSpace" characters hanging around to complicate matters. -------------------------------------------------------- "Call of the Wild" Young Wang CROSSOVER (with FFIII - the Video Game) A stranger suffering from amnesia passes through Nerima and Ranma ends up trying to help him. Then a mysterious power is invoked and Akane is thrown into another world where her fate is to be sacrificed! Can Ranma and Co fight their way past the 4 guardians to reach the final stage in time? A reasonably straight forward fight-fest against supernatural entities. It will have more meaning to those that know the video game. -------------------------------------------------------- Untitled [Rusty at Furinkan] David Weinstein RANMA AND ... (Nabiki and Rusty) A tale of a new student at Furinkan high called Rusty and how he gets along on his first day. This story ties in with Raging Mousse and is also unfinished. No information on the status of the author. ---------------------------------------------- "Project A-Kane" Kindsey Whitelaw CROSSOVER (Project A'ko) Akane is sent to stay with some relatives in Graviton City after winning entry to the prestigious Graviton Girls School. Once there Akane soon becomes involved in the on-going feud between A'ko and B'ko. Ranma 1/2 characters interacting with Project A'ko characters. ---------------------------------------------- "In the Rough" Garron James Whitten CROSSOVER (Maxx) Maxx and his friends are drawn to the world of Ranma 1/2 by an evil Red- haired spirit. Once there they are tricked into battling Ranma and freeing the spirit that is a copy of Onna-Ranma. Much of the detail is lost on me (I don't read Maxx) but overall the story appears to be entertaining. ---------------------------------------------- "Doctor Who: Cursed Time" Stephen M. Wolterstorff CROSSOVER (Doctor Who) After a navigational error the Doctor materializes the TARDIS in late 20th century Japan, where he meets some old friends, loses the TARDIS and his companion along with the daughter of one of his friends. But what is behind the force that can steal a TARDIS? The Doctor drops by the Tendo Dojo, and immediately discovers the "Kidnapping Effect" that seems to curse the Tendo residence. :-) ---------------------------------------------- "Ranma: A Day to Remember" Jeff 'OneShot' Wong ORIGINAL FL. - T. After a fairly mild early morning fight Ranma and Akane are talked into giving each other a 'chance' by Nabiki. Follows Ranma & Akane trying to be nice to each other while a manipulative Nabiki works behind the scenes. A fun story, romance, sneakiness and a reasonable amount of comedy. ---------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2: Too Late" Jeff 'OneShot' Wong UNUSUAL After making his usual problems for Shampoo, Mousse gets thrown into a cage for the night... unfortuneately a fire breaks out in the Nekohanten while everyone is asleep. A Shampoo & Mousse story that has (IMHO) a happy ending for Shampoo. ---------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2: Nabiki having Fun" Jeff "OneShot" Wong ORIGINAL FL. - T. One rainy Saturday afternoon Ranma, Akane and Nabiki are grumbling about the weather, then Ranma teases Nabiki. But Nabiki soon has gotten her own back. Fun short that contrasts Ranma and Nabiki's skill at verbal duels. ---------------------------------------------- "What to say" Jeff "OneShot" Wong UNUSUAL Ranma and Akane are sitting down in Akane's room about to have a conversation, but what will they say? A sort of choose-your-own-conversation story, where you pick what the characters say and jump to the scene that gives the consequences. Amusing, but too short to have many variations. ---------------------------------------------- "Aka Akane-Chan" Jeff Yang. CROSSOVER Ranma 1/2 & Kimagure Orange Road crossover. Has Tendo Akane & Kasuga(?) Akane switching minds. Currently incomplete, but Jeff has passed the story to John Walter Biles to finish. ----------------------------------- "Ranma University" Jeff Yang ORIGINAL FLAVOUR - C An effort to chronicle the events occuring after Ranma enters college and some of the things that happened immediately before. New characters but the same relationships and the same craziness. Entertaining, but suffers from a slow production rate. Episodes Available: Prologue Chapter 1 Side Story 1 Being Written: Chapter 2 Side Story 2 (By Tori Braybrook) NOTE: Some Ranma University "spinoff" fanfic.s exist on the ranma-u mailing list, they have not been included as none have been completed and released off the mailing list. NOTE #2: The RU mailing list is currently inactive and it is probably safe to assume that RU is dead. ------------------------------------------------------ "Shadows of Darkness and Light" David Yellope ORIGINAL FL. - T. Ranma and Akane fight in their usual fashion, dark figures plot revenge on those that banished them from the real world and the residents of the Tendo Dojo (and others) go off on a picnic. Ranma finds himself drawn into an ancient battle against an opponent of considerable skill. A new storyline following (so far) a villan of the week formula. ------------------------------------------------------ "Ranma 1/2: Immortal Runaround" unknown - name not in file LEMON / CROSSOVER The 3 fates (the Greek Goddesses, not the fatimas) decide that they're bored and in the mood for some hunks. Ranma and Co. find themselves the hunks the goddesses want, and these goddesses are really uninhibited. A Ranma 1/2 - Phantastic Phantasi crossover, rated R. No real story, just the fates having sex with Ranma and Co. -------------------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2: The Infamous Teneme Tales" unknown - contact via email address RF74662@LTU.EDU RANMA AND ... (Ranma and Teneme) Another stranger wanders into the Nerima district seeking vengeance on Saotome Ranma. This enemy is Teneme, master of mystical sword techniques and really good at various other martial arts, he's also handsome, intelligent (by Ranma 1/2 standards) and cursed to turn into a Tiger whenever he gets wet (and guess who's fault THAT is). The story centers on Teneme coming to Nerima, fighting Ranma, beating Ranma, losing to Ranma and then settling in to become one of the "Regulars" as he studies the "Anything Goes" style of martial arts. -------------------------------------------------------- "Ranma 1/2 - Okonomiyaki Orgy" Anonymous Post (NOTE: Anon Posts are NOT stored at ftp.std.com) LEMON Shampoo orders yet another Ranma-catching drug from the mystic food sales company, but this drug works in concert with Okonomiyaki. And when it comes to Okonomiyaki, Ukyou does it best. An R-rated effort by Shampoo to catch Ranma that is opposed by Ukyou (also in an R-rated mode). Available at ftp.netcom.com /pub/mu/mughi --------------------------------------------------------- "Lemon List Collection" Various Anonymous Authors LEMON A collection of sexual and erotic FanFiction from the Lemon List (I am told this list is no longer in operation).
