*** @/{{banjo2E}}: I liked this one for the most part.

* ''Comments'': The fourth well-written self-insert ever. As of this writing, Chapter 3 has just been posted, and the main character has yet to show any combat ability whatsoever and has no idea what's going on; unusually for a self-insert, the starting point is Meltokio rather than Iselia, which itself is interesting enough for me. The author's shown themselves to be dedicated to making this realistic and has already dropped quite a few potential plot points.

** [[YourMileageMayVary On that same token]], most of the above problems are limited to her earlier works (especially since she now views her more OC-centric works with [[OldShame some measure of embarassment]]), and her treatment of the canon characters has largely smoothed out. Can't argue with the Kratos thing though.

* ''Synopsis'': A self-insert fic that’s actually really, ''really'' good.
* ''Comments'': The author’s a brilliant writer, all the characters are in-character, and the main OC is incredibly likeable and realistic.
** {{Dec}}: Seconded. I admit that the first time around I dropped it right in the middle of chapter one, but this is definitely worth more than just a first look anyways. It starts out so-so, but even early on it has a bit of a flare that makes it different from most of the other OC/self-insert fics floating around. Its building momentum as the story goes along, and it becomes obvious that this OC isn't going to be coddled from her own mistakes. The chapters are now up into 80's, and the story has developed a strong sense of humor that balances out the tension, keeping it from weighing the story down. There's a definite sense that things are "out of alignment" from the original story, and enough foreshadowing coming from all sides that it will ether drive you up the wall or make you come back for every update. This fic is pretty much the only reason I even check ff.net anymore.

*** ShayGuy: Killing is ''hard''. Ask any soldier. Even if S.L.A. Marshall did get his figures off, there's a lot of truth to it. Plus Will was explicitly described as the guy who takes bugs outside instead of stepping on them.
*** AirshipCanon: I have to agree with Lanceavalon- the {{Wangst}} from Will is pretty annoying. I honestly think the guy is a worse version of [[TalesOfTheAbyss Luke Fon Fabre]], and Luke is bad enough.
*** TGGeko: I couldn't stand this one. The earth references are just plain bad. What kind of person, who is trying to keep their origin a secret, would make so many references? They feel bulky, unfunny, and make me feel the characters are idiots. I threw my hands up and said "Thats it! No more!" when the female protagonist made a scooby-doo, then a {{Labyrinth}} reference.

* ''Synopsis'': Two cosplayers go to a con and are pushed through a mysterious door by some freak, taking the place of Lloyd and Colette to go on the Journey of Regeneration with the original characters ([[PeggySue who have already completed their journey and know everything they know]]) in their Exspheres. HilarityEnsues as the two cosplayers, Will and Ellie, are so GenreSavvy it becomes jarring to the other characters, Will's a DeadpanSnarker, Ellie's a {{Tsundere}} and both are ''far, far'' more intelligent then [[IdiotHero their]] [[TheDitz dopplegangers]]. The story has been completed.

*** [[Tropers/banjo2E banjo2E]]: I liked this one for the most part. Will was pretty well defined as being a coward, and learning how to cope with being forced into combat played a big role in his character development. However, [[spoiler:Ellie]]'s death wasn't really necessary, and the ending was, for me, a massive wall-banger: [[spoiler:PeggySue!Yggdrasil was actually Good!Yggdrasil ''all along'', and he went back to Earth ''just so he could build an Otherworldy Gate for Will and the Aselians to visit each other'']]. In fact, it turns out that [[spoiler:the entire plot was a StableTimeLoop resolving itself, meaning all of the problems caused by and inflicted on Will and Ellie happened FOR NO REASON AT ALL]]. The one good thing about the ending is that it is all the Wonder Chef's fault given [[spoiler:his absolute power over transit between realities]], and he is very, ''very'' much portrayed as being A) [[ForTheEvulz completely insane]] and/or B) [[TrueNeutral a force of nature like the Summon Spirits, and therefore concerned primarily with keeping balance and only peripherally, if at all, with fairness.]]

*** TGGeko: I couldn't stand this one. The earth references are just plan bad. What kind of person, who is trying to keep their origin a secret, would make so many references? They feel bulky, unfunny, and make me feel the characters are idiots. I threw my hands up and said "Thats it! No more!" when the female protagonist made a scooby-doo, then a and {{Labyrinth}} reference.

** The alurannai are a race of near-immortal beings similar to Crystal Users but with many abilities unheard of by the other races, including but not limited to 'conjuring,' the ability to change one type of mana to another, and the ability to generate mana, much like the Giant Tree. Although Sue-ish, they do have a complex culture and an entire language, Sumaityr, invented by the author.
** There are also two OC Summon Spirits--Krishka, Summon Spirit of Life, and Dallinius, Summon Spirit of Unity. The Spirits are given a new hierarchy as well--Krishka is the leader, or 'First Sumara Lord,' followed by Dallinius (the Second Sumara Lord), then Verius (Third), then Origin, and Fifth is Maxwell. There are also Greater and Lesser Summon Spirits, the Greater being the elementals and the Sumara Lords, and the Lesser being little more than talking animals who can use simple magics. Also, only the Greater Spirits require a battle and a world-changing Pact; the Lesser only need to be found and given a simple promise such as a promise to always be friends or to play an instrument daily.
