Line #24 Fanfic/AAngleIsWithUs


1	''A Angle Is With Us'' is a ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII'' fanfic with a frail-yet-lovely protagonist.
2
3	The plucky [[ImprobableAge 16-year-old elite military operative]], with the angelic beauty and singing voice, is assigned to help the main characters from ''VideoGame/CrisisCore'' attack a site of [[FacelessGoons Dark Soldiers]] outside of town, but once there, she is confronted by a Dark Soldier who seems to know more about her backstory than we, the audience, ever will. As they begin to fight, she casts a spell and ''another'' beautifully-dressed angelic form [[StarfishCharacter appears to help her]], but the original teenage girl collapses and the entire mission stops as the Crisis Core cast tenderly bears her back to their Headquarters. Once there, the resident [[EvilGenius mad scientist]] Professor Hojo takes an interest in her supernatural abilities, and the whole cast of the game rallies to defend her from his poorly-defined-but-definitely-evil schemes.
4
5	Oh, and her name is [[UnfortunateNames Anal]]. Anal the Angel, in full.
6
7	Anal the Angel spends most of her own story unconscious or incapacitated in some way, and her presence is guaranteed to stop the plot dead in its tracks as the rest of the cast flocks attentively around her weeping [[BeautyIsNeverTarnished (but still lovely)]] form -- even in the middle of a fight scene. The story's main plot has forgotten subplots, character confusion, massive timeskips (hours to weeks), keeping the focus on Anal, and interludes of Anal and her friends going shopping or gossiping about the Bishonen heroes they like. Early allusions to a possible backstory and antagonist gradually peter out, in favour of scene after scene wherein the game's original BadassCrew cast stands around admiring Anal's wonderfulness, helping her to develop her [[NewPowersAsThePlotDemands angelic powers]], and constantly smiling.
8
9	The story is notable for the moment when, not content with her OC's personal tragedy quotient, the author blatantly plagiarized one of the more famous and tragic scenes from ''VideoGame/CrisisCore'', [[spoiler:Zack's HeroicSacrifice death on the cliffs outside Midgar]], making it about Anal and her brother [[Franchise/StarWars Anakin]], instead.

13	!This work contains examples of:
14
15	* CaptainObvious: Most of the characters get promoted to this rank at some point:
16	--> "There is a bed over there!"
17	%%* TheChosenOne: Though what she's chosen for, we never know.
18	* ClapYourHandsIfYouBelieve: At one point, Anal's telepathic alter-ego informs Angeal that Anal will come out of her coma if Angeal believes in her.
19	%%* CostumePorn: Even the canonical characters' standard uniforms get this treatment.
20	* {{Expy}}: Two of the minor [=OCs=] are female versions of Sephiroth and Genesis, right down to their identical swords, and while the protagonist doesn't physically resemble Angeal, her name (eventually) does.
21	* FauxActionGirl: The protagonist is introduced as a 2nd-class Soldier (an incredibly powerful fighter and trained operative), but is never depicted holding a weapon, and does nothing in any battle situation but collapse and have to be carried off by the real fighters.
22	* ForgottenPhlebotinum: Averted, exactly once -- during one of the ''many'' "Anal is somehow injured and dying" scenes, Zack performs a high-level Cure spell on an injured comrade. The rest of the time, the whole cast completely forgets about using materia, or even their ''swords.''
23	* ImprobableAge: Anal is regressed from 23 to 16 as a result of her supernatural alter-ego being injured.
24	* InconsistentSpelling: In the first two chapters, the main character's name is given as "Anal," but apparently someone told the author what this meant, and the name mutated through "Anile" and "Angly" before settling on "Anglia."
25	* RougeAnglesOfSatin: The fic is riddled with typos of similarly-spelled words to the intended ones.
26	** The ''title'' of the fic has a typo, as it misspells "Angel" as "Angle".
27	Literally, in the title of the story, and the spelling doesn't get better.
28	** The word "minutes" is consistently misspelled as "mints".
29	** "Her tempter is hot. I think she don't have a fever."
30	** "Hojo look at him with angry in his black and coldness eyes."
31	* UnfortunateNames: Anal.
32	%%* WantonCrueltyToTheCommonComma
33	* WhatHappenedToTheMouse?
34	** Anal's two sidekicks, numerous supporting OCs, and even the villain just kind of disappear by the ending.
35	** The nature of Anal's alter-ago is never explained, and she vanishes from the narrative.
