This thread is for those among you who write fanfiction, and have gotten reviews that you thought were funny, awesome, or just plain weird.

A few odd reviews I've gotten over the years....

Wacky Elven Thesis:

This made me grin elfen lied is the most depressing anime I have ever watched so is eva at times.

so making a crack fic out of the two is a glorious idea.

God Within:

Shinji and Asuka are Haruhi's parents. That explains EVERYTHING.

Down The Rabbit Hole:

...KIREI. Married to TAIGA...

You sir, have just won an interwebs.

.. i dont like alvin...you should make a optional crack ending were some random chick comes out gose a hulk and kills him and then the next chappy you say but that sadly did not happen and just keep ging with what you had .-nodes head- good plan good plan!

Yeah...I think the reviews were as big a factor in the way I've come to view my Old Shame works as the stories themselves.

Looking for some stories?

Boyd's Bunny:

From guest: "how the fuck do they have coconuts in crimea"

For reference, the word "Coconut" is only used as the name of one of the characters' horses, and only offhanded, and only twice.

I... just like how the word Coconut out of context was the only thing he cared about in the story. [lol]

On one of my Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess fanfics, "Westward!" https://www.fanfiction.net/s/6533685/1/Westward

From a reviewer going by "kindigo"

Oh, my darling Westward, it seems our sweet affair must come to an end. I think your author suspects something! But dearest, fear not, you've been a very special story to me, and though ours is a love that dares not speak its name-it can neither be denied! Your graceful adjectives; your balanced characters; the ebb and flow of you from climax to afterglow- er I mean "climax to resolution"; I won't forget you, and perhaps when your author's attention is elsewhere we can rekindle our love with a secret reread. Or two. Depending on whether your author chases me off with a broom for whispering sweet nothings to her/his fanfic.

It was left something on the order of three years ago, but I've always kept a mental note of that review and kept it in my heart because it is the best and most amusing review I have ever received on anything, ever.

In which I attempt to be a writer.

Got these replies to Distant Hearts a while ago. Spoiler tags have been added for FMA (manga/Brotherhood) ending spoilers.

Will it be possible for Sora, Riku, or Kairi to either learn Alchemy from the Elric Brothers, or will you at least let either of the "Keybladers" give Ed one each of the four Boosts; AP Up Boost, Defense Up Boost, Power Up Boost, and Magic Boost?

If you let Edward get a Magic Boost, then he could become able to use Final Fantasy-originated Magic, such as; Fire, Blizzard, Thunder, Magnet, Gravity, and/or Aero.

Also, it would let him be able to use that Magic to improve/enhance his Alchemy.

I wonder if Ed could restore his powers of Alchemy, if he had been granted the ability to use magic.

That's one way of thinking that Ed should have a Magic Boost used on him.

So many things wrong with this. First, I don't know what the heck he's talking about with these "boosts." I've played all the KH games besides Birth by Sleep (due to lack of access) and Coded (due to lack of interest), so unless it's something from those games, I've got nothing. Second, this fic's timeframe is nowhere near long enough for anyone to learn alchemy. Third, I am not giving Ed his alchemy back. He gave it up for a reason.

Then when I ignored him, he left this:

Since you decided to make his story plain in development, I think this means good bye for good.

What do you MEAN the author won't cater to my nonsensical whims? -RAGEQUIT-

That's about the weirdest I've gotten. I don't get too many noteworthy comments, especially since most of my fics are one-shots.

I won't directly quote it since most of the conversation was over P Ms, but back in writing In The Service, there was one guy who believed with all his being that among the many mecha shoutouts that Nanoha made, it was missing one.

It needed a character who was an obvious reference to Macross. Or Robotech. But there needed to be a VF. And I was the one true writer who could hope to do it for him.

Someone left a review on my Frozen fanfic telling me Anna was being "too arrogant" and therefore deserved to die.

I've got fanfics for Frozen, Spectacular Spider-Man, Crash Bandicoot, and Spyro the Dragon.

In my TTGL fic, I decided to write a small omake that had nothing to do with the story, in which I applied TTGL physics to Ed Edd And Eddy, just for fun. There was a point I received more reviews commenting on the omake than the actual chapter.

My work is here. Current main fic: Tengen Toppa Gurren Solvernia

Let's see...

I got this on my Fruits Basket poetry collection:

Yukiko Sohma 10/16/13 . chapter 2 this is nice can i be in it

...Did a Mary Sue just ssk if she could be in my fic?

And then there's this one I got on my Crack Fic, I Saw Yuki and Kyo Making Out:

'- Pocky' HEY ARU! That's my name aru!

There's more, but those are what I think are the weirdest/most irritating.

Hilariously enough, I got this a month after I updated the fic in question.
