The Quest continues and a Change to the Updating Schedule!

Hey everyone, I made a snap decision yesterday when I woke up and only had an hour to make a post before yesterday became today. Therefore, from now on, Tuesday will be the second posting day instead of Monday because I have an easier time staying awake on Tuesday apparently. Other than that I’ve been following my new self-imposed task to read all of sakurademonalchemist’s fics. I haven’t finished, but I did a good chuck of them, mostly the ones I’ve already read. The new chapters for the weekend are: Melody of Fire (Sat, Sun, Mon, Tues [now with The Mummy]), Relic of the Future, Tsunami, The Unseen Hunt, Black Sky (Mon, Tues), Deku: The Golden Saiyan Hero of Hope, Broken Dreams, Konsō (abandoned), A Smile on Your Face and a Song in Your Heart, Mauling Snarks, Taylor Varga (Omake) and Reading Chronicles Book 1: To the Victor, the Spoils.

The first of the one’s I reread was Flames of the Creed, which is a KHR and Assassin’s Creed crossover. Assassin’s Creed is a video game series by Ubisoft about the struggle between the Assassins and the Templars. The Assassins believe in free will, while the Templars want to control the world. They fight over artifacts from the previous species that were in control of the world, such as The Apple.

For the first few, follow Desmond Miles, a born Assassin who ran away from them. He is caught and put into an Animus to try and find where the Apple is. An Animus is a machine that allows you to live through the life of one of your ancestors (at a time), up to the point where they had their first child. You can Sync with them and learn their skills yourself. Later games go to different characters, but they all have the Animus in them.

In the fic, Tsuna is an assassin and has been trained since he was a kid. He was sealed because of Templar infiltrators and was released by Assassins he found. When Reborn comes to train him, he is surprised to find a fully trained Assassin. How will things change when they find the CEDEF is being turned over to the Templar’s side?

Second one I reread is Fullmetal Flames, a crossover between Fullmetal Alchemist and KHR. Ed and Al are reborn into Tsuna and his younger brother. They escape from being sealed and meet Fon, who helps them. They eventually get their memories back, but will everything work out and are they the only ones with memories of a past life? Warning there are Male/Male relationships and implied lemons. Don’t Like, Don’t Read!

Third is Spirit Fire, a Yu Yu Hakusho and KHR crossover. It has Yu Yu Hakusho happening in district of Namimori (where KHR takes place, mostly), that Hibari doesn’t care about. Yusuke meets fem. Tsuna and becomes her friend before the beginning of either series, causing her to be involved in the events of Yu Yu Hakusho. It never gets to the KHR actual events, but characters from it do get involved.

Following that is Thief in the Midnight World, which is a KHR and D N Angel crossover. It has Nana (Tsuna’s mom) being sisters with Daisuke’s mom. After he’s sealed, she goes to her family and they help unseal him. He grows up and get’s Dark before Daisuke and makes his own legacy with it. But why is Hibari, Dark’s Sacred Maiden? (no male/male relationships)

Then came Forgotten Famiglia, a KHR and Harry Potter crossover. Before third year, Harry goes to the goblins to find if he has any more family. Finding Daniela Vongola is his great-aunt, he contacts her and they start to talk. She takes him in after third year and takes over his guardianship. Not thinking much of Hogwarts, she sends Xansus in with him for fourth year to find out if it’s worth it.

Which is followed by Breaking the Sky, a KHR and Dragon Drive crossover. Dragon Drive is a manga turned anime about a VR game where you get your own dragon. Follow Reiji Ozora and his new dragon partner Chibi as they get started on the game. However, not everything is as it seems and why are they in a different world?

In the fic, fem Tsuna plays the game to get away from the reality where her absentee father took her mom on a yearlong cruise, leaving her on her own. She saves up enough points to get a special box that allows her to manifest her dragon Sora in the real world. However, the creator didn’t mean for non-mafia members to get that product and sends agents out to find the one with it.

Then was Equus, a KHR and Harry Potter crossover where Fem Harry runs away after fifth year and becomes a horse trainer/breeder in Italy. There she meets Dino of the Cavallone family, who eventually starts courting her. How will things work out between them and will her past come back to find her?

Harmonic Symphony is a purely KHR fic. In it, Tsuna finds a violin and fixs it up. He finds he has a talent for it and while he hides it, it leads him to new friends that find their own instruments. How will Reborn and the Vongola deal with an heir that plans to convert people to music?

The last of the previously read fics is Coping Mechanisms. It’s another purely KHR fic, but it has Tsuna crossdressing in order to help his mom. When Hibari finds out about it, he recruits him to be his fangirl repellant. Fon finds out and helps break his seal, which eventually allows Tsuna to be able to actually switch genders. How will this effect things? Warning Gender switching and implied Male/Male(or female) relationship. Don’t Like, Don’t Read.

The first of the new fics for me is Darkness and Hope. It’s a Pokémon and Bleach crossover that has Urahara sending Ichigo to the Pokémon world in order to help him get over his depression over losing his powers. Neliel also goes along and they find themselves in their ten-year old selves. Join them as they join up with Ash and start their adventures. Not Updated since 2013.

Second is Eternally Black, a Harry Potter and Naruto crossover. It has Sirius being descended from an experimental marriage between an Uchiha and a Black. Sirius unlocks the Sharingon during the war and gets it’s upgrade right before he is put in Askaban. After a few years, he escapes and takes himself and Harry to Konoha. How will the Uchiha deal with a half cousin? Same update time as above.

Next is an actually finished fic and it’s unfinished sequel, Prince of Thieves and Prince of Thieves2: Rise of the New King. Prince of Thieves is a Harry Potter and Yu-Gi-Oh! Crossover, with small The Mummy interludes. It’s sequel includes One Piece.  Young Harry is dragged to the past by Bastet, Cat Goddess and ends up Ba-Ku-Ra’s brother. After the night their village was killed they worked together to get revenge until Ba-Ku-Ra was possessed and Horus (Harry’s new name) was pulled back to his time by a meddling old wizard. How will their reincarnations deal with a figure from both their pasts? 2013 once again.

Then was Repeat, a pure Naruto fic. Fem Naruto and Itachi have been sent back multiple times by Madara (with fem Naruto not knowing Itachi was also repeating). This time, they end up being sent back to the Fourth Shinobi War and save Minato’s team. How will they deal with this unexpected change? 2013.

Finally, was Once Lost, Now Found, a Naruto and Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles crossover. I talked about Tsubasa before, but it has a different Sakura and Syaoran than the ones in Cardcaptor Sakura traveling worlds to find her memories (in the shape of feathers) along with Fai D. Flowright, Kurogane and Mokona. CLAMP (the writers) use a lot of different versions of their previous stories characters in the series and it’s companion xxxHolic.

Spoilers Start!

In the fic, Fai’s (who’s real name is Yue) twin brother Fai sacrifices himself to save Yue (this happens in the actually story too). Fai stays around a while, but is eventually reborn into Naruto’s body. He makes a deal with the Kyuubi to help get him and his siblings to the Time-Space Witch to make a deal to free them. Fai lets Naruto’s personality to come about without him and they don’t meet until Naruto learns Kage Bunshin. How will this effect things? 2013.

Spoilers End!

That’s all I’ll talk about for today and sorry for ‘being late.’ See everyone one on Friday and May Your Heart Be Your Guiding Key!

 

I Have a New Quest, Though It’s More of a, Let’s Get It Over With, Than a Real Want

Evening everyone! There’re many things that came up this week, so lets get into them. First off, sooner or later (sooner or so is said) there’s going to be free DLC(s) for KHIII that will have the critical mode. It will also have some more minor story information, such as how Xion ended up where she did during the final battle. There will also apparently be a larger paid DLC coming (supposedly) by the end of the year. I’ve also heard that there will be at least one more game between III and IV. For those of you who want more Kingdom Hearts information sooner, Kingdom Hearts Union x (the phone game) is apparently going to be going to a new world and more new information.

There was also new information on the upcoming Pokémon games! They’re called Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield and are coming out ‘Late 2019.’ Based on past experience, it’ll be the Friday before Thanksgiving. They showed a bit of the game, but they also showed the new starters. … To be honest, I’m not that thrilled with the look of the new starters. I think they’re too close in looks to some of the previous Pokémon. The game looks good otherwise and it seems to have the previous random wild Pokémon engine instead of being able to see them walking free. Have to wait and see if it’s any good.

Moving on to what I’ve read this week, the answer is more than I plan to talk about today (I think). I reread more of Mauling Snarks and Here in My Arms. The new chapters this week were: Breaking the Gilded Cage (Tues & Thurs), Angels and Demons, Another Way (Tues, Thurs), Service with a Smile, Souls of the Heart (Tues, Thurs), [Harry Potter, Lone Traveler, God and Wizard], Swordsaint, Heroes Assemble!, Dodging Prison and Stealing Witches – Revenge is Best Served Cold, Taylor Varga (Omake) and Mauling Snarks.

I have to say this now just in case someone is annoyed by it, I’m gonna focus on reading all of sakurademonalchemist’s stories, to finally get them over with. I’m on page 8 of 13 and am working backwards. If I haven’t mentioned one from earlier pages (that aren’t compilations of one-shots), it’s because I read it before I started the blog and haven’t reread it yet. However, this includes rereading those so I can talk about them on the blog. There are also some I need some prerequisites for (like, you know, reading/watching the original work) that I’ll get to later. So be prepared for the next few posts to be filled with their work.

Getting on with that, the first one is A Second Chance, which is a Harry Potter and Rosario + Vampire crossover. The summer before third year, Harry sends an application to Youkai Academy after to talking to a goblin. He gets his acceptance before fifth year and decides to go there instead of Hogwarts. There he meets Tsukine and gets involved in the start of Rosario + Vampire. How will that story go with him being included? I doubt we’ll know because there are only three chapters and it hasn’t been updated since 2013.

Next is actually a new fic from them (again). It’s called Melody of Fire and is a Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them crossover. … Yeah, so a few Harry ends up in the past and turns into her dragon form. Newt finds her (sometime before he finds the Thunderbird) and she decides to go along with him. It already has five chapters, so maybe this one will be finished (I wish).

Third is a two-chapter story (not finished and also in 2013) I reread called Lunar Keyblade Master. It’s a crossover between My Little Pony, Kingdom Hearts and Rise of the Guardians. Luna and Nightmare Moon find Heartless on the moon and get their own keyblades. They go to other dimensions to fight the Darkness until they are freed from the moon. In reality, they only go to the Rise of the Guardians dimension before the fic ends currently.

Fourth is The Dragon’s Jewel, which is a Yu Yu Hakusho and Harry Potter crossover. It has Harry finding a wishing jewel before the First Task of the Triwizard Tournament. He uses it unconsciously and eventually it turns him into a dragon himself. Finding out some truths, he flees to Japan and eventually meets the Yu Yu Hakusho crew. Warning, there are some genderbending and male/male relationships in this. Don’t like, Don’t read. Also hasn’t been updated since 2013.

Then was Second Chance, a One Piece and Naruto crossover. It has Ace being reincarnated as Itachi. He refuses to use his bloodline, but has unprecedented control of fire jutsu. He leads a much different life and handles things differently. I has five chapter and also hasn’t been updated since 2013.

Following that was Shark in the Leaf, a Harry Potter and Naruto crossover. Harry is transported to the Elemental Nations as a child and the Sanbi seals himself inside him to hide from the shinobi. A Kiri trained Harry learns he has a bloodline and escapes to Konoha before he is found out. Watch as a Kiri Harry influenced Naruto becomes a shinobi. It has twelve chapters, again 2013 and actually gets to Hogwarts before it stops.

Rose Princess is next. It says it’s a triple crossover, but in the three chapters it only covers Harry Potter and Fate/Stay Night. Instead of going to save Sirius at the end of fifth year, fem Harry runs to Japan. She learns she’s the ‘Rose Princess’ and can recruit Heroic Spirits as her Knights. 2013 once again.

After that is Toshiro Potter, which is a five-chapter Harry Potter and Bleach crossover. A young Harry dies and becomes Toshiro Hitsugaya. After becoming a Captain, he and some others (including his dad) are sent to deal with Voldie by pretending to be eleven and entering Hogwarts. Dumbles thinks ‘young’ James is Harry and thus continues his plans. How will they end up with a jaded Toshiro? Also 2013.

Then came Sailor Naru, a Sailor Moon and Naruto crossover. In it, fem Naruto is Sailor Moon and meets Luna before she graduates. Now she has to find the Sailor Scouts and get through life as a ninja. The Negaverse doesn’t have a part of the current six chapters, but it was implied that they would be coming soon. Also no Tuxedo Mask so far, and another 2013.

Continuing after that was Changed Fate. It’s a Naruto story where he learns that Jiraiya’s biggest regret was not killing Orochimaru when he turned traitor. He makes a different choice at the Valley of the End to make sure he doesn’t have that regret. At the end of the four chapters, he is still travelling making friends around the Elemental Countries. 2013, enough said.

A Yu Yu Hakusho and Bleach crossover, Sword and Demon, is next. It has Ichigo going to Yusuke’s school instead of staying in Karakura because they think he’s a delinquent. He befriends Yusuke and helps him out when he becomes a ghost. How will both their stories change? Quite a bit even in four chapters, also a 2013.

Finally, I reread Hexe Dragon. It’s a Harry Potter and KHR crossover where Fem Harry sneaks into the Varia in order to have a place to belong. When she is found out, after a while, she helps reveal something and is allowed to stay. Xansus even takes an interest in her. It’s a good story and only hasn’t been updated since 2017, so it may, and again I say may, be eventually updated.

That’s it (I actually got through everything, I’m impressed) for the week. I’ll see everyone on Monday and May Your Heart Be Your Guiding Key!

It’s a Black Sky Week!

Hello everyone! Another week gone and this time I did work a half day today. Nothing big this week, but I do now have 2 shiny Meltans! Thanks for all the likes I got for my last post!!  I also ordered some new shirts from TeePublic, a indie-artist product website.  There was a Valentine’s Day (Happy Valentine’s Day, by the way.  Or rather Single’s Awareness Day for me) sale and I got three KH shirts.  One with my new endig phrase (May Your Heart …), one with Kairi’s letter to Sora from KHII (“Thinking of You, Wherever You Are …) and one with the poem that was at the beginning of most KHIII trailers (“If You Can Imagine a World …”).  I didn’t read anything I’ve previously mentioned, so let’s go straight into the new chapters for this week (I’ve decided to include links to the first chapter for the updated stories as well): Black Sky (4 overall, 1 a day), Reading Jaune Ryu-long: Dragon contractor, Knight of Betrayal and Taiga Cub (Tues & Fri), Marvel’s Maelstrom, Service with a Smile, Uzumaki Naruko: To the Victor, the Spoils V2, Breaking the Gilded Cage, Angels and Demons, Hive Daughter, Taylor Varga (an Interlude), Heroes Assemble!, Restart and Mauling Snarks.

The first fanfiction I read this week is called Harry Potter and the Visored by Lupin Dark.  It’s a Harry Potter and Bleach crossover that has Harry being abandoned by the Dursley’s at a young age in Japan where the Visored’s find him.  They deal with his scar by making him a Visored himself and when he goes to Hogwarts things definitely do not go Dumbles way.  Watch as Bleach affects the Harry Potter world (and eventually the opposite will happen, when the events of Bleach happen).

Next are two stories by TheBeardedOne that I’ve read before.  The first one is called The Last Mage of Krypton and is a Harry Potter and Superman crossover.  It has Harry being stillborn, but the Potters’ finding Kal-El and blood-adopting him (Lily was obliviated and doesn’t remember him not being her blood son).  This fic covers his first year at Hogwarts.  Watch as a Kryptonian Harry goes to Hogwarts while learning of his heritage!

The second one is it’s sequel, Rising from the Shadows.  It covers the second year and man are things changed.  Just because it happened in a certain year in the original books, don’t expect it to be the same in this series.  I recommend them and can’t wait to catch up to where the overall story is now because I haven’t read much of the fourth fic in the series.

Following that we’re back again with sakurademonalchemist (I’ve just linked to my own page on here because it’s easier).   The first of their stories I read this week was, Natalie Winchester, was a crossover between Naruto and Supernatural.  It had a fem. Naruto being transported to the Winchester’s house soon after the Kyuubi’s sealing and a few weeks before the fire.  She eventually leaves cause of her father soon after Sam and the brother’s find her again dating Loki.  How will this turn out? (we may never know cause this is from 2014 and hasn’t been updated since).

The second one was Adrian Romanov, a Harry Potter, Avengers and MCU crossover.  It has Harry being an experiment that Loki was doing which was banned by Odin.  Loki doesn’t like that Harry would end up with the Dursleys and gets in in his head that Black Widow taking in the kid would be better.  An assassin-raised Harry is set upon the world, my God have mercy on their souls. (Another 2014 one)

Third is Ether Net, a crossover between Harry Potter and Megaman NT Warrior.  It has Harry, or rather Ether Net Hikari, become the (adopted) brother of Lan Hikari.  Since he has been around science all his life and found ways to integrate magic and science, when he goes to Hogwarts he wants to make everything better.  Albus really doesn’t want that, but can he stop an Hikari on a mission? (2014 again)

The last one is one I’m still rereading (the others were new) is called Hawk-Eyed Charlie.  It’s a purely Harry Potter story (with manga and anime mentioned) where Harry’s paternal grandfather, Charles, lost him memory of most things in an accident and is presumed dead.  Having lived his life as an officer in the Queen’s military, when he retired he ended up on Privet Drive.  When he sees Harry being left on the Dursley’s doorstep he takes him in himself, not knowing he is his grandson.  A military raised Harry goes to Hogwarts and shakes things up!

Finally, there was also an update for a story I haven’t mention yet (also it’s ending with a possible sequel, eventually) called Souls of the Heart by Riku Kingdom Hearts.  It’s a Kingdom Hearts story where Ventus (who is in Sora’s heart in canon) and Vanitas (who is not in Sora’s heart in canon) end up in Sora’s Heart.  However, instead of being dormant, they talk to him and try and help him (Vanitas reluctantly).  They also remember very little about themselves.  Watch as Sora deals with hearing voices in his head as a young kid and people thinking he’s crazy.

That’s it for this week my friends.  Remember that you can get shiny Meltans from your mystery boxes in PoGo and that there is a Community Day tomorrow with Swinub.  You will also be able to get 5 Sinnoh Stones from battling the leaders and 5 from battling friends.  Hope you get everything you need.  Have a fantastic weekend.  May Your Heart be Your Guiding Key!
