Crossover idea!
Dec. 24th, 2009 12:00 pmI've been having this glorious (bad?) crossover idea between Mahou Sentai Magiranger and Umineko no Naku Koro ni. I think it would be wonderful crack to have the Ozu family be one of the witch's furniture. Yeah, the role might fit the villains of Magiranger better, but the villains don't transform in colorful spandex. Plus, evil Ozus can definitely be fun. ;)
Good idea or not, I might just go for it. Most likely, no one knows both fandoms well enough to complain, anyway. XD

Aelita ???
Dec. 23rd, 2009 09:59 amLike I said, I've been posting my stories to AO3 one fandom at a time. I keep skipping over Code Lyoko, not because it's one of the fandoms I've written more in, but because I'm not sure what to tag Aelita.
Should it be Aelita Stones, the alias she used early season 2 until the end of the series?
Or should it be Aelita Hopper, what everyone including the canon characters assumed her real name was?
Or maybe Aelita Schaeffer, what we all found out her real name was, though only at the very end of the series?
I'm thinking just Aelita.

Archive of Our Own Vs. Fanfiction.net
Dec. 20th, 2009 09:04 amArchive of Our Own (AO3) is a new fanfiction archive site, inspired into existence by the 2007 fanlib wank. They want to be a fanrun archive for fans that will support fans and protect the content they post. And they're allowed to post anything and everything. So this is where the script fic writers will run to? ;) Yeah, it's not the first site attempting to overshadow fanfiction.net, and it probably won't be the last, but there are some things about it that distinguish it from the others, in my opinion.
Right now it's in open beta, but you still need an invite code. You don't necessarily need to get one from a current user, you can enter your e-mail to go on a waiting list on the main site. It was only about a week before I got mine. Since then I've been exploring the site as I upload my fics one fandom at a time and there are a lot of features that make me really excited. In many ways I like how AO3 works better than fanfiction.net, even though I still think it needs improvement. To be fair, it's still in beta mode, and has made some improvements even in the few weeks I've been using it. Despite that, I'm doing a comparison post between both sites and how they function right at this moment. Keep in mind that despite critique, I still like both sites. Yes, even the pit.

Season of Giving
Dec. 14th, 2009 07:30 pmI'm kind of disappointed that I missed toku_holidays this year. Not only do I enjoy getting other writers to write stuff like 80s sentai crossovers with yellow ranger femslash, but I also kinda enjoyed writing stuff that other people might like seeing just as much. So, in lue of that, this year I'm gonna open up requests. So...
Post your fic wish list here! The list can be long or short, with general or more specific requests. Wish and maybe be surprised. Nothing is expected in return for fulfilled requests, and don't expect me to actually fulfill any, though I'll try. ^^
OK to request: All pairings and also genfic.
Don't bother: I don't do lemons, and rarely anything above a "teen" rating.
Fandoms: Maskman, all sentai Turboranger through Go-Onger excluding Dairanger, all Power Rangers seasons, Tomica Hero Rescue Force, W.I.T.C.H., Winx Club, Code Lyoko, Jimmy Neutron, Higurashi, Umineko, Sailormoon, Urusei Yatsura, Digimon, Pokemon, Gakuen Alice. (Note: This was just a quick list, if there's something you know I'm familar with that's not on it, go ahead and ask.)

zomg I know that voice
Dec. 13th, 2009 12:51 pmOn my mp3 player, the song OK! (3rd Japanese pokemon op) came up followed by the Kamen Rider Ryuki op, and I just realized that they were both sung my the same person. That would be Matsumoto Rica, who is also the voice of Satoshi (Ash). Heh, I love her so much. <3 By the way she also played Sasami and Tenchi's karaoke obsessed mom in the Pretty Sammy OVAs. One of them ended with a song sung by her about gay love breaking her heart. It was pretty funny.
Gakuen Alice Volume 9 (Chapter 52)
Oct. 3rd, 2009 12:41 pmDespite all of the ZOMG Mikan kissing Natsume/Ruka moments in this volume, in the end my OTP shines brightest:
Mikan&Hotaru married! And Hotaru was the one to write it in, at that! Though at the start of the series seemed all Mikan->Hotaru one-sidedness, yeah, there's been several moments like this showing that for sure that's not the case. <3 Like earlier in this volume when Hotaru tried to poison Ruka for the kissing buisness. I know the fandom will use Hotaru's attempted murder as evidence of the Hotaru/Ruka (not that they even like it, just that it leaves room for their beloved Natsume/Mikan) BUT BE REALISTIC. Ruka was touching her Mikan. XD
Also funny how anything involving the Mikan/Natsume/Ruka love triangle turns into Natsume/Ruka. Like the scene with Mikan holding hands with the boys, and the first sentence of this entry....

Ookamikakushi
Sep. 20th, 2009 02:24 pmSo, more Higurashi anime after all? XD
The PSP game Ookamikakushi, which was released exactly a month ago, was created and directed by Ryukushi07 of 07-Expansion, known for the Higurashi and Umineko games. Of course it might not ever get an English translation, but there will an anime adaptation, as soon as January 2010!
Looking at the short summary, it seems very similar to Higurashi. New boy in a suspicious small town with weird traditions. And the same as Higurashi, it even takes place in 1983. I don't know much more than that, but I'll just wait and see. *adds to "plan to watch" list*
