[Reposted from the Megami ML.  Part 3 of 5]


I'll tell you, the response has been overwhelming for these.
Over a hundred messages on this list!  Sorry if the traffic
is too much...

OK, not.  Actually, I got one e-mail message, and that's it.
You're not trying, people!  Anyway, you think this will stop
me?  Ha!  I laugh in the face of indifference.

Anyway, I said I'd do Ranma X-overs this time.  Of course, I
find three new ones today.  Oh well, they'll be reviewed
later.



"Aa!  Megami-Sensei!" by Peter Ward

Pretty good, but I'm not an Urd fan.  No major problems, and 
introduces new characters.  But it hasn't stuck in my mind.  @



"Moonlight and Cherry Pie" by White Wolf

Probably the best of the Ranma X-overs that I've read, this is
basically a Ranma story with Skuld.  Lots of Akane cooking 
jokes.  Very funny.



"Akane's Delerium" by Stuart George

I couldn't bring myself to finish this.  Parodying a comedy
is always dangerous, and this time it just utterly fails to
work.  Urd and Skuld are badly mis-characterized.  Not 
recommended.



"Oh!  Ranma-Sama" by Richard Beaubien

Competent, but dull.  Belldandy is the only AMG cross.  @



"Improbable Encounter" by Ricardo Martinez

Excellent.  A short vignette with Ranma and Keiichi, this
is short and to the point.  No wasted words.  A treat.



"Timelines" by Mark Latus

This has an alternate Belldandy and Keiichi (ex-ninja!)
involved in the dark world of the Ryoga Crossover series.
This one isn't as depressing as the others.  Very well-
written, though incomplete.



The others I haven't read yet, but I'm getting to them.
Next up (tomorrow):  Tree of Doom, and the Urd-based
fanfics.

I'm probably not going to review Meta-Matics, or that new
one with Malice in the title that I can't recall, because
I hate depressing fanfics.  If the authors let me know that
they'll end happily, I'll be happy to review them.  I know
that Growing Pains is dark, but at least the core is AMG;
Belldandy and Keiichi are in love, and so forth.  

Sorry if this annoys you, see you tomorrow!
