 Ganheim 2009-06-30 . chapter 3“Oh, that my son is so worthless that he can’t even dodge rocks that I throw in other directions while he’s standing still and not looking!”
There was a collected silence from the Tendo sisters as they tried to figure out how that made any sense, while Soun seemed to take these words as gospel.
[So true to the zany humour of the Ranmaverse]
Chapter 2
“Ohh, sir, you fall in Spring of Drowned Evil Creature I Never Find Name For. I call it ‘The Hissy One.’”
[Points +1]
“Don’t worry, Akane’s been having that coming for a long time now,” reassured Nabiki.
“And it’s quite improper to assault the guests,” Kasumi continued.
“If you’re sure,” Ranma answered, a little startled by their acceptance of this. He wondered if weird stuff happened all the time in Nerima.
[How unexpectedly odd, yet strangely fitting]
“Yeah, I’m getting better at this stuff.” Mostly, anyway. And Nabiki doesn’t seem to mind the infrared vision… or the sharper sense of smell…
[Points +1]
“Well, Herb was a young dragon… COW! Definitely cow. Yeah.”
[He just kills Herb without a thought. Why is that so funny this time?]
“What the hell was that?”
[I second the motion. All in favour?]
Chapter 3
[That was so weird…yet funny]
The white-haired boy immediately broke into a kind of hopping, one-legged dance, arms pointing up, spinning his head around in circles.
[I don’t get it, but okay]
Nabiki stared at Ranma, who wasn’t moving from the pose he had stopped in.
[Points +1]
Akane began to growl.
Akane stopped growling when the boy seemed to like it.
[What a funny reversal]
“So- ITE!”
[Unnecessary Japanese]
Forget the hair thing, I wanna learn that! Akane’s head filled with images of four-inch thick water-dragons springing out of the school’s water fountains and knocking Kuno for a loop.
[That would be funny, but I don’t think she’s cut out to be a weaver]
boy is to good
[too]
Then, Ranma saw her.
“Not my type,” he scoffed, dismissing Akane with a wave.
“WHAT?”
[Reversal from canon this is, I’m still surprised that the patriarchs somehow don’t leap up at this like Akane]
“IF YOU EVEN LOOK AT HIM WRONG, YOUR PURSES ARE MINE, **!”
[While so different from canon, that is definitely Nabiki]
“Doton: Yomi no Shoutaku no jutsu!”
“AH! I’M SINKING! WHERE DID THIS SWAMP COME FROM?”
[I still don’t know what fandom this ‘Ranma’ is making fun of, but the strange exclamation is funny]
…but pulled out the notebook back out anyway.
[Repetition of ‘out’]
Soun abandoned the cup. The bottle was so much faster.
[Points +1]
The battle between Saffron and Ranma devastated more landscaping than anything the Amazons had recorded.
[The insurance agency’s gonna go nuts…]
They’re all refrencing other series’ I’m not familiar with, but the parody chapters are remaining rooted enough in the Ranmaverse that it’s understandable anyway. And most of the time they’re pretty funny. |
 Loatroll 2009-05-27 . chapter 3So funny! :D:D:D
I love it!
I also love how Genma kept screaming in his mind :D It's such a change to see him like that, and also realistically. I love it all :D
I also am incredibly amused by the sealed-arms-Orochimaru Ryouga, and the female part just takes the cake so to speak :D
Great work!
While I'd completely love a more fleshed out version of this chapter into it's own story, continue making new and exciting Spring of Drowned chapters :-)
I also loved the Drowned You-Know-Who chapter, and the Godzilla chapter. Great work so far! Really looking forward to more! |
