Research will be enough

Do these qualify as badfic? by Altruis on 2010-11-14 05:48:00 UTC Reply

The first charged fic:
http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5812973/1/MetroidtheGensokyoProject

It's a crossover between Touhou and Metroid, which itself is a problem. The entire Touhou cast is also massively OOC, even by that fandom's standards, and it directly contradicts canon multiple times. On top of that, it has several characters randomly go insane and attack people, and is written entirely in beige prose.The author even gives descriptions of canon characters in said beige prose, which are so general that anyone familiar with the respective canon already knew everything stated.

The second charged fic:

<a href="http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6254920/1/FromtheSkyandBeyond">http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6254920/1/FromtheSkyand_Beyond

From just the first chapter, I see a VERY obvious Stu. He can resurrect if killed, is strong enough to kill guys in powered armor(which doesn't exist in canon) with a few punches, looks 20 while actually being 1500, and various other offenses. Beyond the Stu, the story has either made a canon character look massively older or contains lime-level lolicon, as well as worse than usual fanboy Japanese.

If anyone decides to do a mission in either of these, its important to note that characters being mildly OOC and/or something being different from canon is acceptable in the Touhou fandom. Major discrepancies are not allowed, but minor changes the author likes tend to become canon. It is also important to realize that Touhou characters tend to make god mode sues look weak. All of the named characters from Harry Potter combined might be able to beat one of the weaker Touhou characters. Any agent attempting to enter the continuity should prepare accordingly.

While I am in the process of developing a pair of Assassins and would love to take on the second fic, I've only really played one of the games (and have so far failed to complete it because of how hard it is).

Do you think I could manage it with a lot of research?

Also, what do you think would be a good counterpart to a krogan Agent? I do have a werewolf character, but he might be too cheery to handle a krogan warrior well.

That should have all the information you need to set things straight, as well as build up a fuller chargelist against the Stu if needed. I don't know enough about Mass Effect to help you find a partner for krogan though.

Also, the Stu has also launched the land of Gensokyo off into another dimension, leaving a hole 10-30 miles wide in the center of Japan. Add that to his chargelist.

That's canonical. However, the landscape was cloned, so no holes around. However, if the Stu is involved, that's not canon. At all.

According to the descriptions, both are badfic.

Being some thousand years old is not an heavy offense in the Touhou canon, since a lot of people is much older. (Eirin was probably around 6000-7000 years ago. Yes.) However, if the Stu is an human, it cannot be: humans age just as Real World ones in Touhou. However, most Touhou characters look very young, and most of the girls look like lolis.

I know Touhou a bit, but not enough to claim them. And I've got enough mission to write, anyways.
I don't see why not. by Sedri on 2010-11-14 08:39:00 UTC Reply

I don't know the fandoms, but according to what you've listed here, those all sound like solid charges, even if not enough to send agent screaming in terror. Just because they have decent grammar and spelling certainly doesn't make them goodfic. What makes you think they wouldn't qualify?
