Page Reconfiguration in Progress: Fanfic Recommendations is being split into pages for each individual series, so help is needed to classify each entry into the appropiate category, and to format it according to the template.
Stories focused on the family and the friendly relationships of the cast. Plot-focused stories or light day-in-the-life stories. Pretty much anything that isn't focused on romance.

Dead or Alive 5: Damned Spirit by Alitolexlto
- Recommended by Madd Kossack 115
- Status: In Progress
- Synopsis: Dante questions what he really is put on the Earth to do. However, it seems that answer will be known by joining contenders of the DOA tournament. However, a sinister plot will reveal itself unto him and the DOA fighters as a great evil is will rise.
- Comments: Openly admitted to being a tribute to Damon Black's Dead or Alive 4: The Devil Factor, this story does an equally good job at balancing the plot, character development, and fighting scene action together. And don't worry - even though this takes place in the DmC: Devil May Cry Alternate Continuity, Dante is closer to his more beloved personality from the main games, and even Virgil and Kat get some better character development than in DmC too.

- Comments: Very engaging, with Master Chief shaking the setting by being a pragmatic superhuman soldier, including taking false Kasumi under his wings before she can be deployed.
