23* Recommended by @/{{antvasima}}
24* One of the most well-known long-time Ranma fanfiction writers, and continued past the 90s, helping to keep the FFML alive throughout the 2000s. In addition increasingly dedicated towards keeping the characterisation, mood, and comedy mostly consistent with Takahashi's original vision. Perhaps best known for writing Shampoo 1/2, but has arguably improved considerably since then. [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/406348/1/Avenging Avenging]] and [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/820302/1/The_Things_We_Wish_For The Things We Wish For]] are some of the more noteworthy. There is also a side-story to the former called [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/1434395/1/Defending Defending]] by David Dee, starring Gosunkugi of all people, as the protagonist.

26* ''[[http://florestica.com/dbsommer/twhn/index.htm Those who Hunt Ninjas]]''
27** Recommended by @/PataHikari, @/LooneyToons
28** ''Synopsis'': The story starts with Ranma refusing to get out of bed. Having a feeling that it's going to be one of "those days." The reader then learns that, elsewhere, three GeniusDitz ninjas, in a last ditch effort to fail them from Ninja school, have been ordered to steal the "Scared Urn of CaoPatty." Sure enough, Ranma is volunteered to be the security. And the entire cast joins in. [[HilarityEnsues You can guess what happens next.]]

37[[https://web.archive.org/web/20180809034744/http://sterman.org/ The Works of Richard Lawson]]
38* Recommended by @/LooneyToons, @/CrypticMirror
39* Author of ''Ranma'' story cycles from the late 1990s. His three main ''Ranma'' works are
40** ''Thy Inward Love:'' A {{Continuation}} fic which attempts, with reasonable success, to tie up all the loose threads left by the end of the manga, creating a small but well-done FanVerse in the process. In addition to the main storyline there are a number of side stories covering events in the years after its conclusion, including a crossover with Lawson's other ''Ranma'' series, ''Thy Outward Part'', and another with Zen's infamous ''The Bitter End''. It also has a sequel series called ''Magic'', which no longer seems to be available anywhere on the Web.
41** ''Thy Outward Part:'' The story of Ranma's years at college after he has been locked permanently in his female form, told mostly from the perspective of a male pre-med student who falls in love with the brooding, moody martial arts mistress.
42** ''Roses of Shadow:'' When Ranma loses the Martial Arts Rhythmic Gymnastics contest with Kodachi, he honors the terms of the bet and reluctantly moves into the Kuno home to be with her. There he learns that Kodachi and Kuno's lives are considerably darker than he expected, and discovers that the only hope he has of being freed to return to Akane is to get Kodachi the professional help that she strongly denies that she needs.

48* Short, award winning stories that focus on the budding romance between Ranma and Akane. Palmer was among the first authors to take Ranma Fanfiction from screenplay format to prose.
49** The Seasons Series (Winter, Spring, Summer and Autumn) looks in on the young couple as the year passes. The Colors series (Red, Orange, Black, After Black, Yellow (incomplete) and Manilla) expands the focus to include more of the Nerima cast. Revenge (Revenge?, A Conversation with Nabiki) has the cast crossing into this world to interact with the author. Short Stories (Hot, Yuuki) were written on request, Hot is a self-parody of the author's style, and Yuuki was a one hour challenge that took substatually longer. Ninja no Himitsu is a script fic in professional screenplay format(incomplete). The site also has: Audio mp3 renderings of Red, Winter, Spring and Summer; Author's photos of real world Nerima; Artworks

52[[http://www.fanfiction.net/u/57925/WFROSE The Works of WFRose]]
53* Recommended by @/{{Lanky}}, @/CrypticMirror
54* Author of quite a large variety of stories, wandering through a variety of concepts while still retaining a rather differently twisted sense of humor. Some of his completed stories include:
55** ''Older'': Ranma arrives at the Tendo dojo with his father and discovers that the agreement, while still valid, was made with the Tendo women a little bit older than normal. Nabiki is the one to take the engagement and she's ''thirty-seven''. Kasumi has a kid near Ranma's age and Akane is happily married. Written mainly as a drama with some comedy elements.
56** ''Age of the Warhorse'': An X-Men crossover where a young, canon Ranma is summoned into a CrapsackWorld where Apocalypse made him one of the Four Horsemen. Written mainly as a dark adventure.
57** ''Ranma 1/2: Easy Target'': Ranma is an assassin, by way of The Big Hit. With all of the trimmings you'd expect from a story which fuses both into one serving. Comedy, with some action.
58* Additionally, WFROSE has a history of doing some really, ''really'' grim, disturbing, eyebrow-raising, or otherwise out-there stories and playing them for laughs. ''Little Pretty Biohazard'' features a T-Virus infected Kasumi and the rest don't get any more sane. Of shifting quality.

62* Recommended by @/KhymChanur
63* ''Synopsis'': When Ranma first arrives at the Tendo home, Akane is not a {{Tsundere}} but a sweet girl... who is constantly trying to kill herself. Not because she's depressed or hates life; in fact, she's a very cheerful and upbeat person. No, she keeps trying to kill herself ''just because''. Ranma is roped into being her "one-man 24/7 suicide watch". Done mainly as a dark comedy with some drama.

68* ''Pairing'': Everyone/Everyone else.
69* ''Synopsis'': A retelling of the series with one crucial difference. Instead of falling in the spring of the drowned girl, Ranma fell into the spring of the drowned amorous oversexed nymphomaniac. Can the world survive the first ever master of the Anything Goes Sensual Martial Arts? Better than it sounds. Lots of sex jokes, but also full of characterization. Written mainly as a comedy.

79* Recommended by @/LooneyToons
80* Only two stories, but each is a huge epic, set in a post-manga timeline, with changes and evolutions undergone by nearly every character. In ''Tales of Shampoo 1'', we find Shampoo is living in San Francisco several years after Ranma and Akane got married, content and happy as the proprietor of the city's best Asian-fusion restaurant. Then an unexpected visitor from Japan arrives and throws everything into chaos. ''Tales of Shampoo 2'' is a massive flashback that tells how things got from canon to the state they are at the start of ''Tales of Shampoo 1''.

83[[http://www.fanfiction.net/u/1052054/Chibi_Reaper Chibi-Reaper]]
84* Recommended by @/{{Vindictus}}
85* Author of several stories, notable because of his dark humor and the interesting plots and sub-plots of his fics. Chibi-Reaper is listed here because most of his fics are ''Ranma'' {{crossover}}s of one kind or another.
86** ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3838702/1/Towers_and_Titans Towers and Titans]]'' is an unfinished [and apparently dead] fanfiction written early in Chibi's career. It involves Ranma visiting one of ''[[TheLittleShopThatWasntThereYesterday those]]'' [[TheLittleShopThatWasntThereYesterday shops]], and getting a cursed board game that he, Genma, and the Tendo Family get sucked into.
87** ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5867091/1/Carried_Off Carried Off]]'' is one of Chibi-Reaper's more recent fics, and the only fic that he has ever finished. In it, the Tendo Dojo is challenged by Suika from ''Franchise/TouhouProject'', who quickly defeats Ranma and, as the name of the fic suggests, carries him off. Includes some {{squick}}, although your mileage may vary on that due to it being played quite straight and in a funny manner. Carried off now has a sequel, 'Away To Neverland'.

98* ''Synopsis'': Ranma gets angry about how screwed up his life is due to the arranged marriage. That was when a mysterious man appeared before him, informing the teen fighter that he has another destiny to fulfill. The man and his twin then tell Ranma that he has two souls in his body because he was supposed to have been born twins, but due to demonic intervention, dark forces killed off his twin to ensure the human world is overrun by the Dark World. The two then remedy this by splitting Ranma into a pair of twins and train them to prepare for the battle that will decide the fate of the world and of all creation that had spanned for 10,000 years.

102* Recommended by Kalaong
103* ''Status'': Dormant; last updated April 2018
104* ''Synopsis'': This is an uncensored version of the Ranma 1/2 story written by Takahashi Rumiko and published in the US by Viz Comics. Viz bowdlerized the Ranma 1/2 story so badly that it dulled the story. This is my interpretation of it aimed at correcting what Viz left out, changed or otherwise censored. It is not for children or teenagers.
105** A great fic for Akane lovers, and desperately needed as the Viz translators played up her temper without pointing out that Ranma ''really'' has it coming.
106** {{Tropers/Cheapsunglasses}}: This troper cannot recommend this one. At all. Right from the beginning, the story establishes itself as having a completely OOC Ranma, namely by making him have ''extremely'' perverse thoughts about Akane after their meeting in the bath. That is BS on so many levels.
107** {{Tropers/Pyromania101}}: The title lured me in, but once I started reading, I saw just what a piece of crap this story was. It turned Ranma into a total perv while giving Akane a nice pair of leather pants. I declared my contempt for the story in a review, and the author responded by throwing a hissy-fit, called me a hypocrite for disliking the manga and at the same time reading Ranma fanfics, played the DontLikeDontRead card, and then blocked me from answering or posting any more reviews. Whatever. No skin off my nose if he CantTakeCriticism and decides to be a coward.
108** {{Tropers/ValentineMeikin}}: To call this a 'uncensored' version of the 'original' Ranma is a flat out lie. Soun is a member of the Yakuza, Kasumi is holier than thou, Nabiki is a lesbian who'll sell anything except her body and Akane... is Akane. Add to it a Ranma who turns into a pervert at the drop of a hat, and anyone who has any respect for the setting will just walk away after the first chapter. Everyone except Akane is portrayed as an exaggerated version of themselves far in excess of any other fanwork to my knowledge. How this is a 'recommended' story is beyond me.

112* Recommended by ijp92
113* ''Status'': Complete
114* ''Synopsis'': Ranma realizes how messed up his life is, and comes up with a plan. Ranma pretends to be mad in order to outmaneuver his "friends" and "family." Insanity inspired by Hamlet, with influences from unpopular culture.
115** The dialogue is Shakespearian level wordplay. It was actually painful for me to find something to criticize when I first read this. The only fault I can find is that Ranma is too smart (not that I care). And maybe some what-could-have-been's due to the story taking on a life of its own.
116** Essentially, this is as close to an adequate happy ending for Ranma I've ever found. The biggest flaw, Ranma's sudden burst of intelligence that made the story possible, is easily forgivable considering the result. Some of the dialogue is truly outstanding, and deserves to be quoted even out of context.
117** {{Tropers/Pyromania101}}: A very... odd story, but I still found it easy to understand and fun to read.

In his anger, he curses her unborn children, one to become delusional, and the other to have NoSenseOfDirection. In order to protect them from Kamek, Kimmy has to reluctantly leave them on Earth, with only two enchanted keepsakes to keep them safe: A black rose, and a spotted bandanna. Sixteen years later, Kimmy comes back to Earth to find her children, who, if you haven't guessed by now, go by the names of Kodachi Kuno and Ryoga Hibiki.

[[HilarityEnsues Hilarity ensues]], culminating in a free-for-all battle between all of the characters using a new martial arts style (geisha fu) which involves the use of boas, sequins, corsets, and high-heeled shoes.

344* The Ranma 1/2 Fanfiction Wiki [[http://jusenkyo.wikia.com/wiki/Featherbrite%27s_Tale]] has compiled a list of places where it can be found.
345* ''Synopsis'': Titania, Queen of the Fairies, has won TheBet. The tiny change she makes in the life of a very young Ranma leads first to his acquiring a small faerie creature as a friend, and then inexorably to Ranma and the rest of the usual cast becoming ersatz Sailor Senshi who find themselves locked in a war with the Unseelie Court and their {{yakuza}} pawns. This is a FukuFic in a world where ''Franchise/SailorMoon'' remains fiction; in fact. Sadly, it is a DeadFic, but clever readers can work out the most probable intended ending from the information available to them. Despite Sharp's rather uneven technical skill, and evidence here and there of him changing concepts in mid-stream, ''Featherbrite's Tale'' is still a fun read. Just be prepared for the frustration of the premature ending.

402** Leonite Rider: I agree with the above comments. The fact that there are, as of this comment, only 4 chapters written with 5 and 6 on their way, it is a very impressive fanfiction. Not only is there excellent characterisation of Ranma (as far as I know), but Nihlus, the Hanar Preacher, Sarren, Harkin, Anderson and Udina all appear on the Citidal and are all characterised well. This is all topped with a quick appearence by Garrus, Ranma realising that something is messed up with Saren internally through her ki sensing, Ranma's emotional mix when they arrive at Earth, the Illusive Man actually showing a motive that can make you like the charcter, and finally a heartwarming friendship between Nihlus and Ranma, and this is before Eden Prime! And the best part is that Ranma is going to be working alongside Shepard. As an afternote to this comment, this was made by someone who's Ranma info has been gathered through other Fanfiction.

427* Recommended by mysterykcad
428* ''Status'': Dormant (last updated February 2017)
429* ''Synopsis'': Ranma is stuck in a GroundhogDayLoop, repeating the events of the manga over and over again, his power level carrying over with him whenever he restarts. The fic follows the various hijinks that he gets up to. As time goes on, other characters "wake up" and are able to remember the events of loops from then on, though due to the AnachronicOrder of the storytelling it means that whether a character is "awake" or not varies from loop to loop. This is the story that started Fanfic/TheInfiniteLoops.
430* ''Comments'': It's only really worth reading once the time loops start, as the previous chapters have no bearing whatsoever on what happens afterwards. It's definitely a fic that you have to be in the mood for, as it's very much a comedy. But if you're looking for entertaining looks at a character trying to stave off boredom in an endless loop, it's definitely worth a read (not to mention the spin-offs of it that involve characters from other series that are looping in time just like him).

The formatting of the first two chapters is odd, but it's hilarious to read all the same- the sheer scale of the misunderstandings that take place (again, almost none of which are actually sex related) will have you in stitches by the time they all start interacting. A couple of characters are somewhat OOC, but you almost don't even mind because you're laughing too much. Sadly dead, but if you're looking for a Ranma 1/2 antidepressant fanfic that isn't listed above, try this one.

457* ''Comments'': A very fun and engaging story that is sadly long dead. Despite being stuck as a girl, instead of lamenting his fate or being depressed, Ranma only shows his signature determination and fierce drive, confident he can beat the challenge the universe has thrown at him and be free of his curse. As Ranma already exists in this world, Ranma is given a new identity as part of the challenge, and is given the opportunity to form new relationships with familiar faces from a new perspective, where we get to see different and interesting new sides to other characters’ personalities, while still managing to keep them all perfectly in character. Using his new place in the world, Ranma seeks to overcome everything the world throws at him, become the one true love of this world’s Ranma, and get back to his own world curse free. After all, who knows better what Ranma loves than himself? Very creative, incredibly funny, lots of depth to the characters, completely true to the original work and feels exactly like it. A must read.

Concerned with what his jaunts are doing to the fabric of the dimensions, the TSAB sets out to stop him, and brings Ranma along to help track him down. Hilarity, unexpected confrontations, and asskicking most righteous ensue.

506* ''Status'': Dormant
507* ''Synopsis'': A simple meeting between two characters creates changes that snowball from a small chance encounter. The interactions are hilarious, and very much in character. Plus it is one of the few fanfictions that this troper has ever seen that makes both Shiro and Genma awesome without them doing anything directly.
508* ''Comments'': Not the first crossover seen between Ranma and Nanoha, but this one is quite well-done. It is basically a re-telling of the first and second season of ''Nanoha'', but done well enough that even those unfamiliar with it can follow the storyline easily enough. The author also does an incredible job at blending the two universes together, and is working on showing how the changes cause the ripples. Quite worth the read.

514* Pairings: Ranma/Bloom, Stella, Flora, Musa, Tecna, Layla, [[spoiler: Shampoo, Ukyou]]
515* Synopsis: Valtor survived Bloom's attack in the last ep of season 3 and tries to kill the Winx, but the Specialists saved them through an act of self-sacrifice. Their bodies destroyed, their souls were salvaged and Faragonda gets them reincarnated into one Ranma Saotome. Chaos comes to Magix, and magic comes to Nerima.
516* ''Comments:'' Was written to be a different take on the usual FukuFic, except replacing Sailor Moon with Winx Club. More interesting than it sounds. Ranma learns magic, can attain a faerie form, and practically has a [[Manga/JojosBizarreAdventure Stand system]]. He also builds healthy relationships with the Winx girls. Can the Realm of Magix handle the chaos he brings?

546* ''Synopsis'': Vampires are taking over Nerima, the authorities prove useless, so it’s up to Ranma and the rest of our heroes to stop them. Contains numerous crossovers with other 90s era animes.
547* ''Comments'': Was once considered the original Ranma DarkFic, which is certainly arguable these days. Although the fic does GenreShift Ranma ½ to contain some elements of horror, it does manage to maintain a delicate balance which stops the fic from becoming too serious or overly dark. The closest comparison is probably the ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'' TV series, but this fic predates it by four years. What makes this fic really shine is the unbridled enthusiasm that Karl Rim displays as he digs into the material; this features the first (and probably only successful) crossover with Manga/KimagureOrangeRoad; tackling the biggest what-if of KOR fandom: what if Kasuga got caught? The fic also shows us what [[Manga/MaisonIkkoku Yotsuya’s]] day job is.

Tsukune retains Moka's affections, and Kurumu's as well, but not the other girls'. The characterizations are believable, the dialogue is entertaining, and the spelling and grammar are good.

631* ''Comment:'' Unusual for a ''Ranma'' PeggySue, in that it's not only Akane, but an Akane well-trained by Ranma. Another incomplete, epic work from the 1990s, and despite the author being one of the less technically-adept writers worth a look, if only for its somewhat different approaches to some of the characters.

638* ''Comments'': Certainly a unique fic in its choice of protagonists and in the execution of their relationship, but in no way a shipping fic. As with anything by Ozzallos, the text is rife with word choice and spelling errors, but the strength of his narrative can carry a reader past the spelling problems.
639** If one was wondering about all the FridgeHorror of the canon story, this fanfic makes crystal clear that Ranma's story is by no means priviledged. Both Urd and Hild become outraged when they delve into his life, personally.

663* ''Crossover with'': Franchise/SailorMoon
664* ''Synopsis'': From FF.Net: "Ranma and Kasumi are missing, everyone is annoyed about it. Nabiki is doing her best, Akane is going slowly crazy (or at least crazier) and the parents are still idiots." Ranma has vanished after the wedding fiasco went even worse than in canon, and Kasumi went with her. Follow Nabiki as she tries to track them down and finds herself slowly pulled into their new lives as ...magical girls? This is an epic-length (over 1.4 million words!) story that doesn't begin as a crossover but slowly develops into one; it's almost more of a Ranma 1/2 fic that borrows the vague outline of certain characters and plots from Sailor Moon (SM purists will likely be rather thrown off by the direction the story takes).
665* ''Comments'': The story has plenty of drama and humor to spare but ultimately just feels *good* to read. The usual suspects have all matured significantly since canon, or at the very least *do* mature significantly during the plot, so there's less of the usual interpersonal sitcom-style shenanigans you see in the Ranma universe; rather, the story is a slow burn, almost (but not quite) more of a character study focusing on Nabiki as she reunites with Ranma and Kasumi and on the new life she finds herself thrust into. Also features an expansive cast of original characters, some of whom get more screen-time than most of the usual canon characters, but all of whom are delightful. There are also several prequel stories on the author's profile, generally 15-40 thousand words long, which tell the story of how things got to be where they are at the start of the tale.
666* ''Note'': The story does technically have pairings ([[spoiler:Ranma and Kasumi have gotten married offscreen before they even directly appear in the story, and later on Ukyo and Konatsu are about to tie the knot]]) but they're given so little focus that this is essentially a gen fic.

677* ''Pairings'': Ranma and Akane. Duh.
678* ''Synopsis'': A year later than in canon, a world-weary, scarred and ''female'' Ranma shows up alone in Nerima, and almost immediately becomes entwined in the life of a tired, despondent Akane Tendo. A master of swordsmanship and a chi control that verges on (and at times actually becomes) magic, Ranma rescues Akane from a slough of despair and becomes her teacher. Like any version of Ranma, though, chaos follows where (s)he goes -- and a far more powerful Ranma brings far more powerful enemies with him/her.
679* ''Comments'': A literary masterpiece that must be read to be appreciated. Technically this is a crossover, but the crossover elements are mostly peripheral to the existing story and don't require any familiarity upon the part of the reader. Sadly, it's a DeadFic, which is all the more heartbreaking because of [[MegaCrossover the scope of the entire project]] of which it is a part, and the tantalizing hints about that project which are given during the story's first segment.
680** In early August 2009, Hallstrom [[http://z14.invisionfree.com/The_Fanfiction_Forum/index.php?showtopic=15832 announced he was going back to work]] on ''Ranma and Akane: A Love Story'', starting with reposting and revising the existing chapters, though nothing has been heard since.
681** @/{{antvasima}}: From what I remember of this (I read it years ago so the memories are fuzzy) it was written in a very poetic and quite moving style, but also gave an extreme PossessionSue impression about Ranma "herself", and the heavy-handed brutality and condemnation in combination with a very unlike Ranma tone and characterisation made it much less enjoyable than it should have been considering the technical quality.

684''[[https://www.web.archive.org/web/20101119100355/http:/animeprime.com/ff/md/index.shtml Modern Dynasty]]'' by Jim Lazar
685* Recommended by @/BicoKun
686* ''Status'': Dead
687* ''Pairings'': Ranma/Akane, Ryouga/Ukyou, Nabiki/Mousse, others
688* ''Synopsis'': In the year 2057, writer James Davidson follows up his popular book ''Birth of a Modern Dynasty'', which chronicled the famous Tendo matriarch's first year with her fiancé Ranma, with more rounds of interviews with Akane Tendo in the Tendo Compound in Nerima. In ''Childhood of a Modern Dynasty'', Ranma and Akane's relationship finally blooms, but tragedy, magic spells, and aliens converge to change their world for good, if not for the better. In the sequel series, ''Adulthood of a Modern Dynasty'', the events of the last series comes to a head after a five year timeskip in a war that threatens the very existence of the human race.
689* ''Comments'': A series that was very popular in the late '90s and early '00s. The framing device is cute and tells its own light-hearted story, and the main plot is a roller coaster ride of twists, especially the most crucial one being [[spoiler:Ranma's split into three Ranmas, one uncursed male and two permanently female]]. Fair warning, it can be [[CerebusSyndrome pretty dark]] at times, but manages to maintain humorous breathing periods reminiscent of the original series. Sadly, it was [[DeadFic discontinued]] after AMD chapter 17, but the author posted outlines of the rest of the book as well as the never begun finale series, ''End of a Modern Dynasty'' and side story ''Birth of the Amazon Way''.

692''[[http://www.iamnota.net/ff:comes%20the%20cold%20dragon Comes The Cold Dragon]]'' by Donald Granberry
693* Recommended by @/LooneyToons, @/{{Robert}}
694* ''Status'': Dead
695* ''Pairings'': Ranma and Akane, Nabiki and Herb
696* ''Synopsis'': After the failed wedding at the end of the manga, Ranma begins demonstrating symptoms of combat fatigue, and Doctor Tofu worries what might happen if a martial artist of his caliber were to snap and go berserk. And when Ranma manifests a powerful new ki ability with little control while Tofu tries to treat him for PTSD, it only makes matters worse. Then, just to complicate matters, Ranma begins hearing voices in his head...
697* ''Comments'': An extraordinary work, epic in size but [[DeadFic sadly incomplete]]. There are {{lemon}} and {{lime}} bits, but they are small (and/or optional) and support the storyline; there are also {{Ho Yay}}-ish moments, but that's all they are, moments, nor are they a major part of the story -- there is no {{slash|Fic}} here. Oh, and keep an eye out for the cameo by Jacques Cousteau. (No, I'm not making that up.) With bonus [[Film/BigTroubleInLittleChina Jack Burton]] (and no, we're not making that up either)
698* Well written but very out of character.
699** @/LooneyToons: Well, it's a {{continuation}} that assumes the characters will grow and change. Perhaps they do so a bit more than may be likely, but I don't think they're out of the question.
700** @/{{antvasima}}: Another story that I remember as reasonably well-written, but ending up too much as a standard very OOC GodModeSue Ranma effortlessly overwhelming, humiliating, and "reading the law to" any pet peeve opposition, [[MoralMyopia with highly selective and illogical grading-scale selections for who should or shouldn't be condemned]] (For example, [[FacePalm Herb is applauded]], [[ButtMonkey whereas Ryoga is treated with contempt and humilitation...]]). Not nearly to the ridiculous degrees from the far more lacklustre examples out there of course, but the way I vaguely remember it, I had already seen enough of it to react negatively. However, it's not like I actually dislike the work, it simply wasn't my cup of tea.
701** @/{{wenlocke}}: Very much wears its fanon choices on its sleeve (Dragons Den level Nabiki, the standard fanon spellings for the chinese characters as example) but it does actually try and answer the question of what Jusenkyo curses actually are, and why the whole place hasn't just been concreted over given how much trouble it causes, as well as splice the whole Amazons/Musk/houzanjin thing into some kind of coherent plot/myth arc, and trying to place the whole thing in japanese and chinese cultural context.

716* ''Synopsis'': Akane, expecting to find Ranma cheating on her in a secret lair, instead discovers both the depth of his feelings for her and an untouchable, potentially unbeatable rival previously unsuspected by anyone in Nerima. With everything to lose, she opens herself to him, prompting a cascade of events that not only shatters the LoveDodecahedron in which the Nerima Wrecking Crew have been trapped, but also reveals long-held secrets and plots.
717* ''Comments'': The defining work of a married pair of fanfic talents who burnt very brightly for a very brief time in the late 1990s-early 2000s, before apparently withdrawing from fanfiction entirely. This is an epic work of comedy leavened with drama, and its only true fault is that its last extant installment, ''Our Wedding Day'', remains [[DeadFic unfinished]]. Especially noteworthy for all but ignoring {{fanon}} conventions of the time, instead striking off into entirely new territory in both concept and execution, and succeeding beyond all expectations in the process. Warning: there is some minor lemon content in a couple places (including an optional lemon scene you have to go out of your way to read), and some unusual romantic pairings throughout.
718** @/{{Thrythlind}}: If anybody ever wonders when I decided to make "Buzzing of Hornets" and "Lively Dance of the Apache" staple techniques of the Saotome-Ryu in my fics, they need to read these fics. Granted, their "Buzzing of Hornets" isn't a technique, but I liked the joke they made and used it to describe the name of the Saotome "Get-them-so-mad-they-can't-think-straight" gambits.

743* Recommended by: @/ShadicTheHedgehog
744* ''Status'': Dead
745* Synopsis: A PeggySue Fic wherein Ranma, after dying at the hands of demon summoned by Happosai, is given a second chance to meet his fiancees and family by a mysterious entity. Despite fixing almost all the old problems, several new ones pop up, and some of the old ones appear before Ranma could prepare for them! WARNING: This story is over one million words in length!
746* Pairing(s): Akane/Ranma. Others appear, but will be left unspoiled.
747* Tags: PeggySue, Romance, Action, WAFF
748* Comments: YMMV, personally I couldn't stand it. Despite promises of new problems almost none appear, and it comes off as an author's attempt at a FixFic while not doing much correctly. Several characters are unjustly vilified, there are common interruptions of the action to have Ranma and Akane kiss and celebrate how great the other is (again), every conflict is resolved either within a chapter or has chapters worth of buildup with a huge anticlimax, and sometimes it doesn't even make any sense (ex. a character who was knocked unconscious is suddenly conscious again and somewhere else entirely). Try it for yourself but I would honestly only recommend this to diehard fans of this ship.

762** ''The Taming of the Horse'': Complete
763** ''Centaur'': Dead
764* ''Synopsis'': Inspired by a gag gift from Nabiki, Akane sets out to "tame" Ranma once and for all using techniques inspired by the eponymous equestrian training manual. It won't be easy, because as any true equestrian knows one has to be able to govern oneself before they can expect to successfully train a stallion, which means Akane will have to learn to "rein in" her own destructive behaviors and resolve the questions her love for the serial GenderBender Ranma raises about her own sexuality, an effort sometimes aided and sometimes hindered by their old friends in Nerima and their transfer from Furinkan to St. Herebeke's School for Girls thanks to the machinations of Kodachi Kuno.
765* Pairing: Ranma/Akane
766* Tags: WAFF, Transgenderism, Romance.
767* ''Comments'': One of the better Ranma/Akane continuation fics, ''The Taming of the Horse'' starts from the recognition that Takahashi's OfficialCouple couldn't possibly work out unless Ranma and Akane grew up a lot and learned to accept each other's faults and foibles. It then goes about allowing them to acquire the necessary perspective and maturity in ways that remain true to the madcap nature of the setting and characters.
768** @/{{Daethalion}}: These continuation fics manage to perfectly capture the spirit of the original work - absurd situations mixed with genuine heartwarming moments. The original characters who get introduced are distinctive and full of personality. And of all things, Centaur is one of the few works in which Kasumi instigates just as much silliness as everyone else.

928* ''Pairing:'' Ranma/Asuka/Rei
929* ''Synopsis:'' Gosunkugi uses a magic spell to send Ranma into ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion'', where he expects Ranma to die a quick, messy death. Luckily for Ranma, ''Evangelion'' was one of his favourite shows. But what Ranma doesn't know is that Gosunkugi sent the Tendos the tapes of Ranma's life in ''Evangelion'' so they could watch his "demise".
930* Comments:
931** @/AxemTitanium: I know I recommended this story above but I have a few caveats and suggestions to a prospective reader. I find this story 90% fantastic and 10% aggressively bad. Ranma is a little OOC but it's believable and I never felt bothered by it. The story itself is a fine example of that oft-used Evangelion fanfic archetype of "replace the Shinji character with someone who at least meets the minimum standards for a decent human being" and Ranma does more than admirably. The writing in the meat of this story is quite engaging and I found it hard to stop reading. The problem is the 10% frame story of the Ranma cast watching Eva tapes, which serves as bookends for each chapter. It's fine in the first few chapters but it very quickly devolves into characters becoming mouthpieces for the author to pontificate about problems she finds with the storytelling in canon Ranma. Some points I agree with, some I disagree with, but regardless, it distracted from the main story and felt extremely OOC and not believably so. The final chapter takes place exclusively in this frame story and is a complete deus ex machina/OOC train wreck. I like this story for the great writing in the main Evangelion section and would highly recommend doing the following to improve your reading experience: 1) Skip all the frame story bits. You would only miss the Ranma cast chastising each other for being terrible people all around. 2) Skip the last chapter. The story ends reasonably well on chapter 17 and it would save you from the bad aftertaste of reading the last chapter. To be completely honest, chapters 16-17 are considerably weaker than the previous chapters as well but are more integral to the plot and can't be skipped as easily. I will also not fault the author for not being able to write good fight scenes, as she admits. Hopefully these two suggestions improve your enjoyment of this otherwise really good fic.

958* Pairing: Ranma/Shampoo. Hints of Akane/Ryouga and Ukyou/Mousse too.
959* Synopsis: Happosai sets out to torment Ranma, so far so usual just another day in Nerima. Needless to say it goes horribly wrong, not just splitting Ranma into male and female, but then transforming Ranma's male and female halves into a pair of Chui. It's a race against time for the NWC to find the cure, and just because Ranma is an animate inanimate object doesn't mean the parade of crazy martial arts challengers will stop either.

973* ''Comments'': An interesting twist on your typical Sailor Moon/Ranma ½ crossover in that it incorporates a fair number of the Ranma cast and Sailor Moon characters, and does an interesting job mixing elements of the two universes together so that both universes feel richer for it. Not to mention, most of the characters are treated quite well. A touch over-the-top in places, but worth the read, especially if you enjoy Ranma/Usagi.
