 | : Vampire Knight Fanworks Recs - I've been reading Vampire Knight pretty much since the first four chapters or so came out because I really loved Hino Matsuri's previous works (Merupuri is one of the best things ever) and while it's not my favorite of her works, it seems to be gearing up to be the most popular. The fandom is still small, but maybe with the anime coming out, it might attract more attention? I ship Zero/Yuuki for the most part, but Hino is so totally encouraging the Kaname/Zero and I just want one really good angry hatesex fic for them because it could totally work in the right context, imo. But, yeah. It's not a fandom I feel a strong urge to comb through, so this section will probably always be small. |
 | : Viewfinder Fanworks Recs - I originally read this manga in late 2003 and didn't really think twice about it. Well, other than the whole film container thing, which certainly stood out in my memory. But I never realized that it had much popularity (despite being a Yamane Ayano work) until recently when I was browsing the Yamane-sensei comm and seeing fic and that there was a new Viewfinder series coming out (that I'd known about, but hadn't had much access to until then) and then I dove head-first into the fandom. Especially when I learned that Jenn-san was a fan as well, which always seems to feed me terribly. I generally lean towards Asami/Akihito, but I can be occasionally convinced of Asami/Fei Long. This section will be yaoi, of course. |
 | : Weiss Kreuz Fanworks Recs - Ahhh, Weiss Kreuz, how I loved you and obsessed over you once upon a time, as you can see by the sheer size of this section. Not my biggest, but nothing to sneeze at, either. I, of course, liked yaoi with the series, because almost no gen was actually well-written. RanKen was my pairing of choice, but I had a strong love of Crawford x Schuldich and YoKen. I branched out a little, but if one of those three pairings isn't your favorite, you're probably not going to find much here. ^_~ |
 | : Wolf's Rain Fanworks Recs - Wolf's Rain... I never got too far into the fandom because those FOUR recap episodes in a row really killed the interest I had in the series. By the time the series picked back up again, I was bored and I rarely venture into a series if I haven't finished it (am still on episode 23) because I want to avoid spoilers. I mostly read a few cute, fluffy fics and wandered around for some fanart, so this section is rather small. It's almost pure yaoi (since there's little gen with the series), almost all of the Tsume x Toboe variety. |
 | : X/Tokyo Babylon Fanworks Recs - Despite this section not being as big as I would like it to be (given the level of obsession I went through for this series >_>), this is one of the bigger sections on the site. I was with the TBX fandom for nearly a year and I was ravenous for SxS stuffs. However, I started doing recs a fair amount of time after I was into the series (Natalie Baan's "Sakura & Snow" fic was one of the reasons I started this whole project, actually), so it's never going to be as big as I wish it were. I'm all over the map with this series--I'm mostly an SxS girl, but I liked the occasional FxK or KxK or KamuixYuzuriha (THAT NO ONE WRITES, GODDAMN YOU *FISTSHAKE*) or Fuuma/Subaru or Sorashi or Kusanagi/Yuzuriha or anything involving Aoki or Seal interaction fic or some of my other pet crack pairings. So, het, gen, yaoi, whatever appealed to me at the time. But mostly SxS. |
 | : xxxHOLiC Fanworks Recs - All right, all right, I cave on XXXholic. It was Yuuko (who is PURE EVIL ♥) that eventually made me cave, because she's such the typically fun CLAMP character that she reminded me of why I liked them in the first place. Well, that and the series finally got me to cave on being a hugely dippy Clow fangirl, so I have to like it for that. Mostly, this section will probably be pretty small since XXXholic is so obscure, but I would love, love to find more Clow/Yuuko fic. Or maybe the occasional fanart, but I don't hold out much hope. A lot of these recs may be crossed over into weird sections like the Cardcaptor Sakura section (since HOLiC is very likely set in the same world) or Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLES, since they were crossed over. It's... a complicated mess CLAMP's made here. But this section should hopefully be largely Yuuko-centric. <3 |
 | : Yami no Matsuei Fanworks Recs - Yami no Matsuei was another one of those series that was just mad about for a long time, so the recs page is pretty healthy, even if I started doing recs mid-obsession with the series, so it'll always be smaller than I wish it were. I'm a Hisoka fangirl with a laaaaaaarge side-helping of TatsumixWatari, so this recs page largely revolves around TsuzukixHisoka, MurakixHisoka, and TatsumixWatari (Eeee! My favorite! ♥) However, the fanart is split between Tsuzuki/Hisoka and Tatsumi/Tsuzuki because there's some gorgeous fanart for both. This section will be almost pure yaoi, but occasional dashes of gen will be mixed in. |
 | : Yoroiden Samurai Troopers Fanworks Recs - YST is a very old series for me, but may still be the series I fell hardest for, ever. Prince of Tennis is getting up there, but I think YST still reigns champion in my black little fangirl heart. However, the fandom really kind of blooooooooooows. And sucks. At the same time. That's how bad it is. I find occasional fic I like, occasional fanart I like, but combined with the shitty fandom and the date of the series (thus not a lot of J-fanart sites still being around), this section is pathetic. I'd love to change it, but I fear the crappy fandom, I really do. Whatever's going to be here is mostly going to be yaoi, with occasional dashes of gen. Almost purely SeijixTouma, with the occasional RyoxTouma and maybe some RyoxShin/ShinxRyo. |
 | : Yu-Gi-Oh Fanworks Recs - ....dude, I don't even know why, myself. All I know is that I stumbled across a fanart site that was ungodly pretty and I am a sucker for zee pwitty arte~~. Then I started exploring the links page and found a few other really top-notch sites... and thus this section was born. I read no fic (nor do I have an interest in doing so at this time, as I don't know the series and trying to watch the dub tends to make me remember why I generally dislike dubs) but fanart... well, whatever's pretty, be it het, yaoi, or gen. Though, mostly yaoi. >_> |
 | : Yuu Yuu Hakusho Fanworks Recs - Yuu Yuu Hakusho was my very first anime love, the series that dragged me into the whole anime thing in the first place--I ordered my first fansubs for this series (back in the days when you actually had to get them by VHS, you whiny little brats who have your digisubs just HANDED to you *FANGS*) and learned all about this thing called 'anime'. And I immediately fell head over heels for HieixKurama and, to this day, I still adore them. However, I also, the more time I spent with the series, came to fall completely in love with YuusukexKeiko and... to be honest, if you gave me a choice between a good fic for either pairing... I'd probably go with the YuusukexKeiko, that's how much I adored them. So, het and yaoi and gen will all appear here. ^_^v |
