This is a topic for people to gush about fics they like in the Ranma 1/2 community.

I'll have to look up something I want to read that I like (besides ass kissing the Sage).

Well, I'm a fan of Innortal's stuff. He's pretty fun even if he does usually stick to fanon cliches about a few of the characters (Akane in particular), though he can use them to good effect.

You can find his work here.

Legendary Legacy

I'll throw some praise out for Claymade's 'Dark Lords of Nerima'. While it isn't my favorite Ranma fic, it's still one of the very, very, VERY few Sailor Moon/Ranma crossover fics that I actively enjoyed. I think I ended up reading Ranma and Ryoga's fight with Jadite three time in a row when the chapter first came out.

I hear that Big Human on Campus story is good, but I have not read it.

One of the better Ranma/not-Akane matchups is "Handed on a Silver Platter" by Grookill. It's one of those rare fics where Akane isn't treated like a Saint or Satan. She just has her problems like everyone else.

I'd recommend "A Deft Touch" by John Morales as well. It does try and work with the premise of Akane dying at Jusendo and how it effects everyone. The ending is still one of the best tear jerkers in Ranma fanficition.

I would like to recommend the works of MZephyr. Although his earlier works has some Shampoo and Ryouga bashing, the later works toned it down.

Also, O'Donoghue fanfics are pretty good. He's the guy who wrote Meeting Later. Warning: Slow updates.

Ozzallos is pretty good and writes fun stories, mostly Ranma based. He has some flaws, such as being just a wee bit obsessed with female Ranma and having some problems with Sailor Moon fanon in crossovers, but he crafts a fun story. Hell is a Martial Artist is particularly worth reading.

That was second on my list of recommendations. It's really a lot of fun and stays fairly true to both series. I wholeheartedly second that recommendation, though I'm much more lukewarm on the sequel.

Her War by Materia-Blade is another great story. Warning: It's dark as hell. It's the sort of dark that makes you wonder why you're reading it. At the same time, it's the only fic that's used certain plot devices (see spoiler below if you're curious) and not felt disgusting or lessened by the inclusion of that material. It goes for the feel of an old mythic epic and largely succeeds.

Spoiler: click to toggle
