There is a sequel, called [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5598319/1/The_Demon_of_Go_City The Demon of Go City]], that unfortunately hasn't been updated in a while. It has also spawned two side stories, [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3879816/1/Contagion Contagion]] and [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3943355/1/The_LAST_Thing_You_Wanted_To_Read The LAST Thing You Wanted to Read]], the former of which ties the series into the author's Fanfic/DisappearingDoctor Universe, while the latter is a non-canon "what if" scenario in which Ron has somehow become [[spoiler: {{Deadpool}}.]] All are very much worth checking out.

Added DiffLines:

* HeWhoFightsMonsters: M, a version of Monique [[spoiler: whose parents were killed by the mob, and who has dedicated her life to taking them down. In the process, she's done some things that essentially make her no better, which includes breaking Wade's legs when he pointed this out.]]

None

Added DiffLines:

* ForWantOfANail: Every world that Kim and Shego visit usually has one or two major events from which all other changes stem. Kim eventually learns from another version of herself that the reason each world they visit is so different, rather than just minor changes like a different outcome of a chess game, is that alternate worlds tend to cluster around a main hub world where the biggest change took place, and without specific targeting, interdimensional travelers will usually end up in the main world.


Added DiffLines:

* InterdimensionalTravelDevice: The Pan Dimensional Vortex Inducer. After visiting the first world, an alternate version of Wade develops the Trans-Dimensional Facilitator, or TDF, combining PDVI tech with the Kimmunicator to give them a more easily controlled version. It can only open gates once every 24 hours.


Added DiffLines:

* TheMultiverse: The primary concept at work.
Is there an issue? Send a MessageReason:
All The Myriad Ways is being renamed to Expendable Alternate Universe. Bad examples and Zero Context Examples are being removed.


* AllTheMyriadWays: Averted, since the events of each world leave a lasting impact on Kim and Shego.

** Cratos was the personification of strength (no, not ''[[GodOfWar that]]'' Kratos--he was actually a demigod), which is a fitting name for The Grand Commander's head of security.

The story is notable for making dimensional travel accessible and easy to understand, while still engaging in a level of pseudo-scientific TechnoBabble that's enough to keep any science fiction fan interested (one of the chapters is, in fact, ''called'' "Technobabble"). The author is very good at conveying the sense of shared isolation that would naturally result from an interdimensional journey, while still hinting at grander things and building an obscenely complicated plot that requires multiple readings to understand.

Added DiffLines:

* TechnoBabble: This being a story about interdimensional travel, of course not everything is going to be perfectly scientifically accurate. It is, however, all internally consistent and easy to understand. Funnily enough, one of the chapters is actually ''called'' "Technobabble."
