Just-in-before-the-end-of-the-year-2007 Update: Yeah, I'm still alive, and writing.  ^_^;  I apologize for not posting any notices that I'm still here more frequently, but the same 'Real Life' excuse problem includes finding the time to sit down and work on the pages.  I really do need to work on/revise all of the pages, at some point.  (Plus, I still would rather not post updates that aren't more than just "I'm still here," even if it's somewhat necessary, now.  So, I might change my mind on that point.)

Unfortunately, I don't have anything complete to post, at the moment.  I was considering posting some drafts, or a basically complete (but still untitled) Ranma/Final Fantasy 7 one-shot experiment.  I've been considering adding a forum or blog in which I could post work-in-progress drafts, the vast amount of ideas gathering dust in my folders, and artwork.  And not all of it has something to do with Ranma.  ^_^
Also, I'm considering ways other than email notices for a simpler way of letting people know there's been an update to these pages (probably easier to do with forums/blogs, though), such as an RSS feed.   Oh, and a FAQ for general/story questions, too.

A Goddess' Dilemma is still (officially) on hiatus.  There's still some things I'm debating about, including the way a certain plot point unfolds, and whether or not I want to extend everything into a third series (Dilemma was originally supposed to be the conclusion, for the most part).  If I did write a third series, I'd probably have to re-map/rewrite AGD.

IMPORTANT:
As of sometime on November 18-19, 2005, my cal.net address will no longer exist.  It's been my dial-up account for nearly ten years (back when hardly anyone was using the username 'makoto'  ^_^), and I've never had any real problems with it - but due to DSL, it's mostly been used for email only, for a while. 
I haven't decided which of my other email addresses to use as the 'primary' address on these pages, though... because as you all know, whatever address I pick will probably be completely flooded with spam by the end of the day.  -_-  Until then, use my fanfic.net address (see below, at the bottom of the page), if you want to email me.  I'm waiting until I make up my mind, before I change the email addresses on all the pages, though that's probably not a good idea...
Also, this means that the Unofficial Magic Knight Ranma pages will be down for the time being.  I'm not sure where I'll put them (Kiyone, you there?  :). 

Another IMPORTANT note: Due to the above-mentioned email issues, the primary address you can use to contact me is now: . My fanfic.net address is now the secondary address, but only use it if you can't contact me at the primary address.  
Also, be sure to include a subject line that's relevant and clearly not spam (no subject lines that merely say "Hi" or "Your site," for example.)
 I haven't had a chance to update the story files and all the sub-pages, yet.

Ten Year Anniversary

- That's right; as of 2003, I've been writing anime/manga fanfiction for ten years. (My first story being Bubblegum Splash!, in 1993.) I'd wanted to post a more substantial update, but RL has been preventing me from getting much work done for some time.

Update status: I'd update more often, but I grew rather tired of posting semi-frequent updates that said little more than "I'm still here, haven't done much, but hope to have something posted soon!"  -_-  'Real life' has really been complicating my schedule to no end (and is showing no signs of stopping @_@). 

NOTE: Due to a server upgrade, the address for these pages has changed. If you're linking to http://www.anime.usacomputers.net/~makoto/index.htm (or any other URL), please change the link or bookmark to http://www.fanfic.net/~makoto/. We apologize for any inconvenience.


This page is currently (always!) under construction. Suggestions, comments? Email me at or if the first address doesn't work.

I've removed the MIDI-playing routines from this page as it probably created a fair amount of overhead when loading the page, and because I'm splitting more of the page off into sub-pages. (I have no intention of setting up frames, though. ^_^) As a way of saying thanks again to ST for creating his own rendition of the Sailor Stars Song and letting me use it on these pages, I'm leaving the zip archive of it posted for all to download.

Anime Fanfiction Stories

(Note: For the sake of everyone's sanity - including mine - I've done away with the GZip files and all of the stories are now presented here as plain text, unless stated otherwise.)

These stories are essentially the same as the versions stored in the rec.arts.anime.creative archives, except for a few changes in editing, email address, etc.




Bubblegum Splash!


What happens when you mix the worlds of Bubblegum Crisis/Crash! and Ranma 1/2, adding in references to other series, manga, games, and more? ......I'm not sure. You're supposed to get Bubblegum Splash!, but I may have made a mistake in the recipe somewhere... hmm...

Ranma 1/2: Destiny's Wish

Given a single wish to change the Past but not Destiny, Saotome Nodoka tries to change the Past so that Ranma is never taken from her. But she is unaware of the consequences of her wish, and what is to happen as a result...

Aa! Megamisama/Ranma: Instruments of Change

After spending nearly seventeen years "lost in the system," Belldandy, Urd and Skuld's sister - the Goddess of Change - is finally found... and her return triggers an array of changes, even in her own life.

Click HERE to go to the Instruments of Change page.



Aa! Megamisama/Ranma: A Goddess' Dilemma

With all the Change that has occurred in Akane's - and the other Goddesses' - lives, will she grow farther apart from Ranma?  Or will the Ultimate Force keep them together... somehow?
(Note: This is a sequel to Instruments of Change, so it might be a good idea to read that, first.)

Sailor Moon/Ranma: A Call To Action

Sailor Moon S: Digital Moon


Sure, role-playing games and adventure games are fun, but what if you were Usagi Tsukino - otherwise known as Sailor Moon - and your best friend, Naru, literally disappears into one... following the path of several other gamers in Tokyo? How will Naru and the Sailor Senshi survive?
