COMMENTS: Once upon a time, there was a reviewer named Ni. This reviewer found an MST of a crossover fanfic, and decided to see if it really was as bad as it claimed to be, taking it upon herself to edit it to its original, unfiltered (in)glory. Five days later, as a result of that idea, she nearly lost her sanity trying to wrap her head around it. Her speech was reduced to incoherent jibberish, her eyes were bloodshot, and when she learned there was a sequel and prequel to it, she screamed and cried onto her computer screen. Forget about making Kousagi cry - Kousagi was almost put into a straitjacket and locked away for the rest of her natural life after this one.
No, I am really not exaggerating the effect of this fanfic on me. It really did make me cry, more than once. I...where do I even start with this story? I just can't. Everything is just so inherently wrong with it. It basically fits into everything that is wrong with bad fanfiction, combining everything into a stew of pure shittiness that no amount of explaining can undo. It's so terrible I had to put it under three different categories to more sufficiently express my utter horror and disdain for this story. I never thought I'd have to do that. I never thought a fanfic would push me that far to categorize it more than once. Well, ladies and gentleman, the line has been crossed - you know this fanfic has something wrong with it when the author actually pulls the original off the internet because he was afraid it would either offend sensibilities or encourage someone to commit a terrorist act after 9/11. The sad part is, the terrorist acts in the story (and the accompanying ethnic stereotypes) are just the teeny-tiny tip of the iceberg as to what is wrong with this story. (Don't even get me started on the 'cultural references' the author decided to use...or even his OOC Beavis and Butt-Head. How the hell can you make Beavis and Butt-Head OOC!?!)
Normally, I would be a little more humorous and say "read if you daaare!" for a good laugh or to just make you shake your head, but with this fanfic? I can't do that. With all that it does, it's beyond terrible. It almost goes into the sublime as to just how absolutely crappy this one is. And frankly I'm glad the prequel and sequel don't have any Sailor Moon in it, because if it did, I don't think I could have handled it. I think I would have just quit maintaining this site, just so that I didn't have to read it. So, I say to you, Peter Guerin, in the words of your Yoriko Amizana:
"GO TO HELL YOU BASTARD!!" That is all.
