 | : Katekyou Hitman REBORN! Fanworks Recs - REBORN! is one of those series that I had been seeing around forever and Vikki was on at the time I started reading the first few chapters and it all just sort of combined together and I started reading and promptly fell instantly in love. I dove straight into the fandom, heading right for the fanart (and a little bit of fic that was around at the time, which has turned into a LOT of fic now) and within a couple of weeks, I already had a rather insanely huge amount of stuff. I don't plan to stop any time soon. For now, this section will mostly be fanart links with a little bit of fic, mostly focusing on Dino/Hibari, Tsuna/Gokudera, and whatever else happens to be popular in the fandom. |
 | : KareKano Fanworks Recs - I'd heard of KareKano before, but I'd never gotten too much into the series because there never seemed to be the right time/energy for it. Then I was wandering through my library, saw they had the first seventeen volumes available, decided what the hell I'll check 'em out, and promptly devoured them. I very, very much like Arima/Miyazawa, but I also fell extremely hard for Hideaki. Hideaki/Arima/Yukino is probably one of the few true OT3s I ship, one of the few trios that I feel like each side of the triangle has its reason for being there. I also like whatever was canon for the rest of the series, but my main focus (which will be small, since the fandom seems to be tiny) will be on those three. |
 | : Kenran Butoh Sai: The Mars Daybreak Fanworks Recs - I probably really shouldn't be giving this series its own section, but, what the hell. I want to eventually go through some of the art sites out there and maybe someday someone'll write fic. As it stands, I don't really have any pairings, so I'm open to anything, whether het, yaoi, or gen, but if I had a choice... I'd probably go for Yagami/Grahm, just because they're my two favorite characters. Shush. So, I don't know what to expect here, 'cause I doubt I'll find more than one or two sites for that pairing. |
 | : Kodomo no Omocha Fanworks Recs - Another series that I didn't think that I'd be able to find enough for to make its own catagory (or even enough to put it in the miscellaneous section), but then the 30_kisses comm came along and there was just enough fic for me to be able to justify giving it its own section. It'll probably always be very small, as I don't feel a huge drive to find Kodocha fics, but if I stumble across the ones I like.... Will probably almost exclusively Hayama/Sana as well. |
 | : Koko wa Greenwood Fanworks Recs - Unfortunately, the Greenwood fandom is very, very small. Fortunately, what is out there is often times rather good, so this section will at least get you started. Like the seeming rest of the fandom, I fell head over heels for Shinobu x Mitsuru and their complicated, layered, surprisingly subtle relationship. I like all of the characters, but those two always have been and always will be my favorites. Yaoi, yaoi, and a dash of gen. If I run out of yaoi. ^_~ |
 | : Kyou Kara Maou Fanworks Recs - WHERE IS MY FANART, HUH? It's taken me this long just to find a small handful of art sites and I WANT MORE. *huffs* Given that this series is very much geared towards shounen ai, it shouldn't come as any surprise that this section'll be mostly yaoi/shounen ai. >:D However, I'm a huuuuuuuuuuge fan of Konrad/Yuuri (which is what most of the J-fanart sites seem to be geared towards) and rarely venture outside of it. Occasional Wolfram/Yuuri art sneaks in and I'm desperate for anything Gwendal/Gunther (OMG GIVE IT NOW), but it's going to mostly be Konrad/Yuuri, I suspect. |
 | : Last Exile Fanworks Recs - I always wondered why Last Exile didn't get more of a fan following, it was such a pretty series and had some really wonderful characters. I almost had to put these recs into the miscellaneous section, until I found a couple of pretty fanart sites and then Shi-chan-tachi started writing fanfic (and, omg, there's actually Vincent/Sophia fic, which I'd been PINING for! *___*) and suddenly there was enough to make a section for! Note: This section will probably often contain spoilers for the ending of the series, so I'd suggest waiting until you finish before you start clicking around. |
 | : Love Mode Fanworks Recs - I honestly never expected this series to have enough of an English fandom for me to be able to give it its own section--it's a yaoi manga and as popular as it seems to be, those rarely get more than a handful of fics in English. But there are a handful of writers writing for this series and writing beautifully, which makes me sparkle like mad. I tend to favor anything with Kiichi (especially HaruKii) or Takamiya (since they're my favorite characters), but who could possibly resist pretty much any of the main pairings? ^_~ I. Um. Also want Reiji/Kiichi. And Tien Lee/Kiichi. Plz don't kill me. Yaoi, yaoi, yaoi, of course. |
 | : LOVELESS Fanworks Recs - So. A couple years back, I attempted to read the LOVELESS manga and it just did not stick, whatsoever. The translations made no sense, the art did little for me, and the storyline held little pull. Fastforward to when the anime is announced and finally starts airing, I'm still a little reluctant, but give the first episode a shot. OMG SO PRETTY THE STORY ACTUALLY MAKES SENSE NOW THE ART IS SO PRETTY OMG SOUBI I LOVE YOU I MUST HAVE MORE OF THIS SERIES NOW WHEEEEE. Which really about sums up my reaction to this series. Now all I need is fic/art. +__+ Will largely be yaoi-friendly, but the series is rather complicated, so it may actually swing closer to gen-friendship-verging-on-yaoi sort of yaoi? But small, because I don't like the way most of the fandom writes the Ritsuka/Soubi relationship, which is totally my OTP. In that order. |
 | : Matantei Loki Ragnarok Fanworks Recs - You know, I just can't decide what kind of fan I am of this series--am I a het fan? A gen fan? A yaoi fan? A little of all three? I guess that last one is probably most accurrate. *grumbles* Not that I've gotten much chance to figure that out, since this fandom is so small. But I do like some het (*waves NarukamixMayura banner*) and some yaoi (*waves bigger LokixNarukami banner*), but I also like gen. And I'll read outside my usual pairings (Heimdall and Loki, I'M LOOKING AT YOU) if the writing is good enough. So, yeah. Yaoi, het, and gen. |
 | : Megami Kouhosei Fanworks Recs - I was actually aware of this series before it hit Cartoon Network, but, sadly, that's what actually kicked me into watching the series. And, of course, MY favorite characters, the yaoiboy one, dies. *huffs* Stupid series. So... yeah. I like yaoi. I'm not crazy about the het for this series. And, yes, I like HiedxZero, dammit. But I go over the moon for GareasxErnest. <333 |
 | : Meine Liebe Fanworks Recs - Originally, the Meine Liebe recs went into the miscellaneous catagory because I had too many sections scattered around the site as it was, but when I have two or three and plans for more, that's when I cave and give the series its own section. I don't expect there to be much for this catagory, it's a silly little 13-episode series that I forget most people will have forgotten in a year or two, but... for now, I'm quite enjoying the Orphe x Ed and Ludwig x Naoji and would like more of them, please. <3 Will probably be almost exclusively yaoi. |
 | : MeruPuri Fanworks Recs - Merupuri is one of those series that I never would have read without Meg ordering encouraging me to do so, but I'm very glad she did because it's an awesome series that has every single retarded shoujo cliche in it pretty much ever. And I actually like the characters and the art is gorgeous in places and I frequently wind up laughing so hard I'll cry. Hino was brilliant with this series, she walked the line between parody and making me actually care about the characters and was insanely clever about all the little things she packed in. Like every single shoujo cliche EVER. It was glorious. ♥ I mostly stick to Aram/Airi and Rei/Jeile with the fandom, but... well, it's small enough that I'll read just about whatever I can find. :D |
 | : Mirage of Blaze (Honou no Mirage) Fanworks Recs - I was, of course, immediately attracted to the Mirage of Blaze series because of the style of the anime being semi-similar to CLAMP's work on X (especially Naoe hitting my Seishirou buttons) and because of the lure of shounen ai. Eventually, though, I found a series that I liked enough for itself to read a little fic and find a little art. The fandom on both sides of the pond seem to be terribly small, so this'll never be a big section, but there's at least enough to give it its own. ♥ |
 | : Mushishi Fanworks Recs - You probably shouldn't expect much from this particular section, despite that I've looked all over the fandom for fic and art for it. Mushishi is one of those series that's sort of on the border of fandom, I love it enough that I crave more, but it's so beautifully done on its own that it leaves little room for fans to fill in the edges. You can find about enough here that'll occupy a couple of hours of your time, though, just enough for one whirlwind weekend of Mushishi stuff at least? I pretty firmly lean towards gen with a slice of het on the side, though, yaoi wouldn't make me run screaming... but that hasn't really been put to the test, the fandom is pretty quiet and seems to be largely gen. |
 | : NANA Fanworks Recs - I fell extremely hard and fast for NANA and practically mainlined it for a few days to tear through all the manga as fast as I could. I'm a little torn, part of me desperately wants fic for the series, something to take the edge off the hurt, something to give me my fix in between chapters. But part of me also wants to leave the series untouched because it's such a beautiful manga that doesn't need any holes patched up. But. I'm also a desperate, lonely, OTP girl for Takumi/Nana-chan and thus I caved and totally started reading fic. And begging fic off my flist. >_>a |
 | : Naruto Fanworks Recs - Once upon a time, this section was horribly unbalanced, probably something like 85% KakaIru-centric and 15% a mishmash of everything else. Now, it's still very much in favor of the KakaIru pairing (so run now if that's not your thing? ^_~), but it's also got strong sections for a lot of other pairings/no pairings, to the point I think it may be of use to non-KakaIru fans now, too. There's still a very high Kakashi concentration in just about everything I rec, but I also gravitate strongly towards Jiraiya/Tsunade, Lee/Sakura, Sasuke/Naruto, Kakashi/Rin, and character pieces about the rest of the cast. It's all broken down pretty well, so you should be able to at least find something you like? |
 | : One Piece Fanworks Recs - With One Piece, I tend to be all over the map. My favorite is Zoro/Sanji, but I also have a strong soft spot for Luffy/Nami and gen fics make me shiver with happiness. If I had my druthers, I'd probably read gen beyond anything else, I think, but all that pretty Zoro/Sanji fanart makes me shimmer and burble happily. So, there'll be gen, yaoi, and even the occasional het (I like Luffy/Nami and Zoro/Nami both), all depending on my mood and what I find. The OP fandom tends to be rather small Western-side, but the j-fandom is quite, quite large and I like to mine for pretty fanart from them. |
 | : Ookiku Furikabutte Fanworks Recs - This one is measuringlife and Anita's fault, because they both read the manga and really liked it a lot and I'd seen it around and, well. Peer pressure. :< I am weak to it. But it's a REALLY FUN little series that's got a delightful OTP and a crapload of gay and some very sweet fic written about it and a handful of nice art sites. I want to get deeper into the series and I suspect I will eventually, but for now, this section is pretty small. It'll get you started and I'll probably be mostly focused on Abe/Mihashi all the time, but. I'm just getting started, too. |
 | : Ouran Koukou Host Club Fanworks Recs - Host Club was a manga that latched its claws into me faster than I would have ever suspected. I read the first volume in scans (before the anime came out, so I've been disappointed in the anime version of the series a lot D:), quickly decided I had to own the rest of the series, hit up Amazon.com, and read them all in about three days. I love this manga for mocking shoujo cliches yet still making me care about every last one of those characters. I focus mostly on fic here, but there's a few art sites to be found as well. My favorites are Kyouya/Tamaki, Kaoru/Hikaru, and Mori/Haruhi, but you'll also find... well, pretty much if it got a manga cover, I'm fond of it. Mostly. |
 | : Outlaw Star Fanworks Recs - While there's a lot of fic on FFNET for OLS, I've not really delved too deeply into the fandom. If you've ever taken a stroll through the FFNET catagory, you probably know why. >_> The idea of Gene/Jim isn't my thing, the idea of Gene/Melfina isn't my thing (*firmly a fan of Harry/Melfina*), and I'm a Fred Luo fangirl, so this section tends not to get updated until one of my favorite authors in another fandom writes fic for the series. So, this one will be mostly yaoi and gen and the occasional bit of het if I can find Harry/Melfina fics I like. >_> |
 | : Peace Maker Fanworks Recs - Ahh, Peace Maker, for a series that started out so obsessively with me, you certainly burned out quickly. I still love the series and I will still read fic for the characters and I will still look for art for the series, but... it's not a flaming, bright passion with me. Even after I marathoned the anime, I never felt much of an urge to go on a fic spree... I love the seres and characters dearly, but something didn't quite click 100%. Still, every so often.... Yaoi, yaoi, yaoi, of course, but mostly Hijikata x Souji. ♥ |
 | : Prince of Tennis Fanworks Recs - Wow, um. Where to start, eh? With Prince of Tennis, I'm pretty well all over the map, I like just about anything (with a handful of exceptions); yes, the section will largely be yaoi-centric, but I also like some het and I'll pounce just as fast on gen. Tezuka x Fuji is going to make up the lion's share of this section... well, okay, Tezuka x Just-About-Anyone is going to make up the majority of this section, but I do occasionally branch out. (....you decide how much of that is serious and how much I'm just kidding about. XD) Yaoi, het, gen, whatever, I'm too obsessed to care. ♥ I've mostly slid out of the fandom these days, but this section is still the biggest on my site, I think, which means you'll have plenty to get you started if you're a new fan. |
 | : Princess Tutu Fanworks Recs - There's not a lot of fic for this series, unfortunately (though, it's one of those series that doesn't really need fic, I don't think), so I tend to be more focused on the fanart here. I originally started out as a FakiaxMute fan (and I still am!), but the more I watched the series, the more I found my heart really wanted FakiaxAhiru... and it seems like the J-fen agree with me, so there's a fair amount of fanart here. Yaoi, het, and gen, but probably mostly het... it depends on what I can find. |
