4	[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/4821436/1/Ed-Edd-Eddy-n-Edna Ed, Edd, Eddy, n Edna]] is a non-supernatural spin-off of "The Grim ED-ventures of Ed, Edd, n Eddy" that answers the question "What if Edna existed in the "Ed, Edd n Eddy" canon as Nazz's Cousin?" Stuff will happen! Written by Creator/{{Technomaru}}.

6	The friendship of the [[PowerTrio three male Eds]] and [[MrFixit Edna]] all started when Eddy tried to buy a dirty movie off eBay by using the money he earned from his "devil fruit scam". Nazz's cousin [[NaiveNewcomer Edna]] moves to the cul-de-sac and [[IJustWantToHaveFriends wanted friends]], sure enough meeting the Eds made her day. However during an incident involving the Kankers, she noticed that one of them was treated by the other two. It took Edna alot of quick thinking but she manages to befriend [[FriendlessBackground May Kanker]] and win the trust of her male Eds.
7
8	However with most of the summer spent on being pals, making a new friend in [[ShyBlueHairedGirl Rachel Carlyle]], and avoiding the other [[BigSisterBully Kanker Sisters]], [[PlotTwist there was the arrival of a new girl gang from Lemon Brook]] named [[BigBad "The Killer Sisters"]] and they are totally obsessed with destroying the Kankers and ruling their turf... plus Rachel has a history with them. So it took [[ThePowerOfFriendship the combined efforts of the 4 Eds, the kids, and the kankers (and a rickroll)]] to get rid of them... [[CycleOfRevenge but they swear revenge]].

10	Note that many of the character tropes that described the cast in the original ''WesternAnimation/EdEddNEddy'' series are still applicable.
11
12	Some of the characters in this fanfic have spun off into the horror comedy fanfic ''Fanfic/CourageTheCowardlyDogJr''
13

25	%%* {{Brainy Brunette}}s: Edd, Edna, and Rachel.
26	* ButtMonkey: The fic puts Kevin through many a HumiliationConga to make up for all the times he beat up the Eds and [[Main/KarmaHoudini got away with it]].
27	%%* ChubbyChaser: The WG Cult (a cult who obsesses over making women fat) are meant to be extreme parodies of this.
28	%%* CoolBigSis: Edna becomes one to [[LittleMissBadass Sarah]] and [[ProneToTears Jimmy]].
29	%%* CuteBookworm: Rachel.
30	* {{Crossover}}: with ''The Aspie Girl'', with [[NoSocialSkills Jennifer's]] cameo appearance.
31	** Mordecai and Rigby from ''WesternAnimation/RegularShow'' join in the final fight for no apparent reason other than giving the Killer Sisters what they deserve.
32	** Whenever a cult who obsesses over making women fat appears, [[WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy Ollie Williams]] appears, labelling them as "chubbychasers" in his loud, direct, alchohol-induced way of speaking.
33	** The cast of ''Manga/OnePiece'' appear as the opposing team in the hockey chapter. In the same chapter, the cast of ''[[Literature/HaruhiSuzumiya The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya]] appear in a commercial.
34	** Don Patch bums around Peach Creek ever since his series ended.
35	%%* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}:
36	%%** [[ComicallyMissingThePoint Ed]], as well as Edna herself.
37	%%** Johnny 2x4, [[MrImagination obviously]].
38	%%** Julie Killer could be seen as this.
39	%%* CluelessChickMagnet: Edd, oddly enough.
40	%%* TheCutie: [[YouthfulFreckles May]], according to her portrayal in the fanfic.
41	* DistinguishingMark: Edna's most distinguishing feature happens to be a small beauty mark beneath her left eye. WordOfGod states it was based on the beauty mark possessed by [[Manga/LuckyStar Konata Izumi]].
42	%%* DumbBlonde: mostly May, although Nazz herself does tend to have her moments.
43	%%* DumbMuscle: Ed.
44	* EvenEvilHasStandards:
45	** The Kankers think the Killers are even worse than themselves, plus they are repulsed by the fact that they smoke cigarettes and Julie's obsession with fires.
46	** Everyone knows that Kevin, Sarah, and the Kankers dislike Eddy's older brother and the way he treats him but surprisingly, Julie Killer sees him as a "bunghole" and admits she treats her siblings much better.
47	** WordOfGod admits the Killer Sisters' acts of violence are mostly all talk but when they discovered their counterparts from the fanfic "Courage the Cowardly Dog Jr." actually caused a prank that resulted in the victim to die of heart failure they were disgusted and horrified.
48	* EveryoneHasStandards: The Cul-De-Sac kids form a lynch mob and beat up Kevin after he insults Jennifer.
49	%%* EvilCounterpart: The Killer Sisters are MEANT to be this to the Kanker Sisters despite being antagonists themselves.
50	%%* EvilIsPetty
51	%%* {{Fiery Redhead}}s: [[HairTriggerTemper Sarah]], [[TheBully Lee]], and [[JerkAss Kevin]].
52	%%* GainaxEnding
53	%%* {{Genki Girl}}s: May and Edna.
54	%%* GratuitousJapanese: this actually appears quite often throughout the fanfic, strangely enough.
55	%%* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold:
56	%%** [[DudeMagnet Nazz]], Edna's cousin and the GirlNextDoor to the Eds.
57	%%** May shows traces of this as well, particularly as she begins befriending the others and becomes a member of Edna's group.
58	* HumiliationConga: Kevin is put through hell and back throughout the fic, starting with Edna exposing why he always refers to the Eds as dorks: it's to compensate for his insecurities over the size of his own [[Main/UnusualEuphemism "dork"]].
59	* IJustWantToHaveFriends:
60	** Rachel is a shy character with a DarkAndTroubledPast involving the Killer sisters, and was quite eager to befriend the Eds and the rest of the cul-de-sac once she first appeared.
61	** May also sought acceptance from others and arguably [[IJustWantToBeLoved just wanted to be loved]].
62	*** Jennifer herself [[IJustWantToBeNormal feels isolated due to her Asperger's]] and tries desperately to establish friendships among the cul-de-sac.
63	%%* InsufferableGenius: Edd, on occasion.
64	%%* ItsAllAboutMe: Eddy, at his worst.
65	%%* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Eddy and sometimes [[SpoiledBrat Sarah]].
66	%%* {{Kindhearted Simpleton}}s: Ed and Johnny, as well as [[TheDitz May]] to some extent.
67	%%* {{The Ladette}}s: Marie, Lee, and Edna each fit into this, according to their interests.
68	%%* [[LittleMissConArtist Little Mr. Con Artist]]: [[{{Greed}} Eddy]], ''and how''.
69	%%* KarmaHoudiniWarranty: Let's just say the author REALLY doesn't like Kevin.
70	%%* MisunderstoodLonerWithAHeartOfGold: May, according to the fanfic, considering that Edd and Edna each note that she is much kinder and more tolerant than her brash elder siblings.
71	%%* NaiveNewcomer: Edna in the first few chapters of the fanfic, although she appears to quickly befriend everyone.
72	%%* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: "Kanker" and "Killer".
73	%%* NeatFreak: Edd often alternates between these.
74	* OfficialCouple: Quite a few:
75	** For one thing, there's the Eds and the Kimono siblings (Ed/Kasumi, Edd/Hikari, Eddy/Ryoko, and Edna/Kitaro).
76	** Johnny/Rachael
77	** Much, much later comes [[spoiler:Kevin/Lee, after Lee sustained a blow to the head that made her beautiful.]]
78	%%* OneOfTheBoys
79	* OtakuSurrogate: Edna and Rachel are both {{Gamer Chick}}s who enjoy a diverse variety of comics and manga.
80	* ParodySue:
81	** Much of the ''WesternAnimation/EdEddNEddy'' fandom perceives Edna this way, considering that she was an original character specifically designed to serve as the fourth Ed and effortlessly resolve [[RunningGag their ongoing struggles]].
82	** WordOfGod claims this was because of how furious he got from playing the Gameboy Advance game "Ed, Edd, n Eddy: Jawbreakers" not only was the game difficult but he ''despised'' the ending (saying something to the effect of "you're supposed to win the game") and as a result he created Edna to make sure they win more than usual.
83	** At the end of the fic, the fanfic powers-that-be have the whole fic shut down. It was rebooted shortly thereafter, turning Edna into Edd's cousin, but only one chapter has been posted, and to date, appears to be a DeadFic.
84	%%* [[SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl Savvy Guys, Energetic Girl]]
85	%%* SesquipedalianLoquaciousness: Edd, [[TVGenius as can be expected]].
86	* ShoutOut: Too many to count, but here are a few:
87	** Ed's favorite horror comic book series is Creepshow.
88	** In a scene lifted from ''FanFic/TheGrimEdventuresOfEdEddNEddy'', Edna scams Eddy by selling him a tape on eBay that is claimed to be a pornographic video of Denise Crosby. It turns out to be ''WesternAnimation/HelpItsTheHairBearBunch''
89	*** This is a parody of the beginning of the Adult Swim pilot "Welcome to Eltingville" right down to the quote "That's not Tasha Yar naked! It's the Hair Bear Bunch!"
90	** There is a whole chapter putting the Eds into the main roles of ''AnimatedFilm/YellowSubmarine''.
91	** At one point, the male Eds are seen by Edna as Film/TheThreeStooges.
92	** Edna's happy place involves her dancing to ''99 Luftaballoons''.
93	** The male Eds' respective love interests are based on anime characters. For example, Eddy's love interest, Ryoko, is based on the character of the same name from ''Anime/TenchiMuyo''.
94	** During the hockey chapter, the Killer Sisters sing "In The Dark of the Night" from ''AnimatedFilm/{{Anastasia}}''. You are forgiven for reading the song with the voice of Creator/JimCummings1952.
95	*** In the same chapter, Literature/HaruhiSuzumiya and co. appear in a commercial, and ''Manga/OnePiece'' characters appear as the opposing team.
96	** Another chapter retells the ''Town Musicians of Bremen'' with the Eds filling the roles.
97	** A chase scene inside the Kankers' trailer involves liberal use of ''Series/TheBennyHillShow'' gags, which is even lampshaded by Nazz.
98	** A shopping trip involves several of the female characters singing "Holiday Road", a song best-known for its appearance in ''Film/NationalLampoonsVacation''.
99	** Eddy tries to make videos for ''Series/{{Jackass}}''. They all get rejected, and Eddy and Ed end up indisposed.
100	** Yet another chapter parodies "Thriller" by Music/MichaelJackson, though throughout the song, it is stressed that the song is called "Chiller", not "Thriller", mainly to avoid [[ScrewedByTheLawyers incurring legal repercussions]].
101	* TakeThat:
102	%%** See WriteWhoYouKnow.
103	** The WG Cult is meant to make fun of sickos who like seeing women being super mega obese.
104	%% * ThePowerOfFriendship: the force that would ultimately defeat the Killer sisters.
105	* TheQuietOne: Shy, wishy-washy little Rachel.
106	* ThoseTwoGuys: contrasted with their respective roles in the actual show, [[MasculineGirlFeminineBoy Sarah and Jimmy]] seem to fade more into the background throughout the fanfic.
107	%%* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Churros!
108	%%* TrueCompanions
109	* TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior: The Killer Sisters are actually 11, they pick fights with the Kanker Sisters who are ages 13, 14, and 15, smoke, cause all sorts of destruction, and are pretty violent.
110	%%* VitriolicBestBuds: Eddy and Edna.
111	%%* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: Why Did It Have to Be Clowns?
112	%%* WideEyedIdealist: Especially Edd and Edna.
113	%%* WorldOfSnark
114	%%* YouGoGirl
