Fics where Nabiki gets her comeuppance

Postby Ran » Mon Mar 24, 2008 10:29 pm

Nabiki is my least favourite character in the Ranma series, she is the only one whose actions seem to be consequence free for her. She is (as portrayed in the series) the most irrideemably evil character in the cast and yet she never received any backlash in the series and typically in fanon she is cast as the one person keeping the Tendo household afloat and a good soul despite a little tarnish.

What I'd like is a list of fics where Nabs gets what is coming to her.

Hmmm... can't say I entirely agree with that assessment of her, however, I also do not agree with the fannon depiction of the hidden angel and savior.

In any case, a couple come to mind off top of head:

RANMA 'A Plan Gone Askew' by Targhan - [Status=Not Complete] - [Last Dld=09/09/2002]
RANMA 'An Overlooked World' by N Reynolds - [Status=Complete] - [Last Dld=08/16/2006]
RANMA 'Astrild's Restaurant' by Skysaber - [Status=Not Complete] - [Last Dld=11/26/2004]
RANMA 'For Better or For Worst Case Scenario' by Golden Arms - [Status=Complete] - [Last Dld=02/06/2007]
R-AA 'Ifurita 1-2' by Multiple - [Status=Not Complete] - [Last Dld=09/10/2007]
The following I have no valid link for, but is one in which Ranma takes revenge on Nabiki by spreading pictures of her:
RANMA 'Photographic Justice' by The Tenchi Knight - [Status=Unknown] - [Last Dld=08/31/2003]
  • No known valid link

Tecnically, the following assumed all canon events, and then showed what her actions had led to, then given a chance to change it:
RANMA 'Ranma Take 2' by Innortal - [Status=Not Complete] - [Last Dld=10/23/2005]
I *think* it was in the following Akane actually attacks Nabiki while in a fight to get back at her manipulations, and later on is possessed by a ghost.
R-AA 'Tokyo Archmage-SM' by Multiple - [Status=Not Complete] - [Last Dld=12/30/2007]
I'm uncertain the following would count by your criteria, Nabiki's teasing forces a divergence during the time she became Ranma's Fiancee, and is forced to not only pick it up, but take it serious even with Akane disowning her.
RANMA 'A New 17' by grookill - [Status=Not Complete] - [Last Dld=06/09/2003]

I wouldn't quite say evil, and she's definately not the most evil. She's just plain greedy, and yet Genma is far worse as he always shoves the problems he creates from his greed, over to Ranma. I do agree however in not liking Nabiki, She and Genma are total scum in my veiw but not evil.

The morality or immorality of the characters in this series appears to be directly proportional to how funny a moral or immoral act would be at any particular moment. :P

Just like in Roger Rabbit.

"You mean you could have gotten out of those handcuffs any time?"

"Oh, no, only when it was funny."

Oh agreed, however Nabs is the most amoral and never shows any regret over her actions except in cases where she could have fleeced someone for more than she did.

In the manga this is entertaining though slightly annoying that none of the consequences ever reach her, but the vast majority of fics go for more serious tones and thus slapstick becomes abuse and yet Nabs somehow ends up nice.

Edited to denest quotes.

Oops got a nest there. It's kinda unique but I think that rule against nested quotes is still on these forums.

Ranma/OMG crossover KamiSama Punishes Nabiki and Then Some is at least a runner-up.
