Since I’m such a huge fanfiction fan, I believe something like this shouldn’t be missing. Still, I think this post will mostly be a copy and paste post, since almost all of the fanfics I’ll name are already in one of my two fanfiction recommendation lists that I made some time ago. Again, I have to note that I don’t know how many people are really interested in something like this, but I really hope that I can at least help some of you find something new to read~
10. Bad Dog
Source: Shingeki no Kyojin
Author: CanaanAlphardForever
Description: Krista nearly hits a dog with her car during a storm and takes it home, only to find that it’s not just a dog, but a person named Ymir seemingly stuck within a curse.
Genre: Romance, Comedy, Supernatural
Pairing: Ymir x Christa
Words: 52,029
Chapters: 30
Status: Complete
Link
I just came across this one a few months ago and fell in love with it at first sight. Other than the characters, this fanfiction has nothing in common with the Shingeki no Kyojin anime and manga. So you could say it’s a rather light and fun story that is quite easy to read and very entertaining on top of that.
9. Citrus Schtuffs
Source: Citrus
Author: angel0wonder
Description: A collection of short one -shots featuring Yuzu and Mei. And pretty much everyone else!
Genre: Romance, Comedy, One-Shots
Pairing: Yuzu x Mei
Words: 15,603
Chapters: 21
Status: Ongoing
Link
This was the first Citrus fanfiction that I ever came across, and I eternally thank @slicesofcake for showing me this one and basically all the other Citrus ones by this author. The description might not make it sound that good, but believe me when I tell you that this collection of short ones should be worth so much for each and every Citrus fan out there. I’m usually not a fan of short, and especially unconnected, chapters, but in this case, it couldn’t be any better.
8. Week
Source: Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha
Author: Satashi
Description: After admitting her feelings, Fate is given one week to make Nanoha fall for her.
Genre: Romance, Comedy, One-Shot
Pairing: Nanoha x Fate
Words: 16,066
Chapters: 1
Status: Completed
Link
This is a one-shot with a simple, yet interesting, plot. I don’t wanna tell you too much about this, since it only has one chapter, but I can promise you that if you are a fan of NanoFate, you’ll love this one.
7. Giving In [Adult]
Source: Mai-HiME/Mai-Otome
Author: Centauri2002
Genre: Romance, Adult, Comedy, Adult
Pairing: Shizuru x Natsuki
Words: 52,057
Chapters: 4
Status: Completed
Link
Yup. This is the only adult fanfiction in this list, even though there are quite a number of other great adult ones out there. Still, this one is surely done by one of the greatest smut authors of all-time. Seriously, Giving In is absolutely great, especially if you’re a ShizNat fan who’s okay with some smut.
6. Kannazuki no Miko: Priestesses Unchained
Source: Kannazuki no Miko
Author: Tsuyazakura Kouyuki
Description: In the aftermath of the battle, Chikane was separated from the girl she loved and Himeko found herself waiting for a person whose face she didn’t even know. Yet, after years of torturous longing, the cogs of Fate turned once more.
Genre: Romance, Slice of Life
Pairing: Chikane x Himeko
Words: 81,355
Chapters: 4
Status: Completed
Link
This story is probably the most romantic thing I’ve ever read. It’s cheesy, it’s overly cute, and most importantly, it’s just how I would want a second season of Kannazuki no Miko to look like. If you’re a fan of romance, I’m sure this will be to your liking, but be prepared. This really is romantic to no end, some of you might not be able to bear it.
5. Saved by the Bell
Source: Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha
Author: Satashi
Description: A seventeen Nanoha meets Fate on the first day at a new school, forever intertwining their destinies.
Genre: Romance, High School, Comedy
Pairing: Nanoha x Fate
Words: 134,861
Chapters: 20
Status: Completed
Link
In contrast to all the above mentioned fanfics, Saved by the Bell is much simpler. Two girls accidentally meet in school, become friendsand fall in love. But this simplicity is exactly what makes it so good. Their feelings are presented in such a nice and comprehensible way. All the little details that the author added to the story, and all the clever comedy elements make this fanfiction so very enjoyable that I have already read this story more than only once.
4. Monster
Source: Mai-HiME/Mai-Otome
Author: ShayP
Description: Natsuki Kuga is running away from an abusive home. She finds herself at Garderobe Military Academy where she meets her teacher, Shizuru, her rival, Tomoe, and her friend, Nao. She can only pray her past doesn’t come back to haunt her.
Genre: Romance, Drama, Military School Setting
Pairing: Natsuki x Shizuru
Words: 585,496
Chapters: 29
Status: Ongoing
Link
Almost 2,000 reviews for 29 chapters? That’s almost 70 reviews per chapter! This story is humongous. I don’t even know how long it took me to read those 29 chapters, but I do know that I loved reading this to no end. The way the relationship of Natsuki and Shizuru is developing so unbearably slow with all the obstacles that lay in their path will keep you entertained for a very loooong while. Trust me.
3. Kannazuki no Miko: Lovers Eternal
Source: Kannazuki no Miko
Author: Tsuyazakura Kouyuki
Description: In the City of Mahoroba, on the birthday of two maidens, a Dark Sun appeared across the sky, bringing down its wrath upon the earth. Why are two school girls drawn into this conflict between good and evil? And are good and evil what people perceive?
Genre: Romance, Adventure, Gods, Drama
Pairing: Chikane x Himeko and many others
Words: 315,776
Chapters: 15
Status: Completed
Link
I’m not lying when I tell you that this is a real masterpiece. The fanfiction follows the same story as what we’ve seen in the anime, but it’s is like 100 times better! While the anime left so many questions unanswered, what you’ll get here is not only great explanations, but also a freaking complex story, with a ton of different characters, other than Himeko and Chikane, of course. Each and every one of them has a great background story, making their choice of actions remarkably understandable. Furthermore, the author presented the story of the Orochi (which was by the way not even explained in the anime) in a fantastic way, showing the feelings, actions, and in general, just everything in a way, that is perfectly understandable. If you are a Kannazuki no Miko fan and love good dramas, then read it. It’s fantastic!
2. Siren of the Sea
Source: Mai-HiME/Mai-Otome
Author: ShayP
Description: What happens to Natsuki when the ship she’s traveling on is taken over by the infamous Captain Viola, siren of the sea, pirate queen, and bloodthirsty murderer? What about when the only cargo she wants to steal happens to be an unwilling Natsuki?
Genre: Romance, Drama, Pirates
Pairing: Natsuki x Shizuru
Words: 26,218
Chapters: 10
Status: Ongoing
Link
Siren of the Sea is probably one of the best fanfictions you will find. Just look at the ridiculous amount of reviews this got, and you know that this is going to be great, and it really is. This story sucked me in with its first chapter, and I’m still bound to this masterpiece. You don’t necessarily have to be a Mai-HiME fan to enjoy this. I’m sure you’ll fall in love with this even if you haven’t watched this show.
1. Fairy Tale Variation: The Little Mermaid
Source: Kannazuki no Miko
Author: Tsuyazakura Kouyuki
Description: It’s the story of how Chikane, a powerful mermaid as well as one of the Eight Sages of Yamata no Orochi the Serpent God, and Himeko, a shy and clumsy girl living in disguise in the great palace of the royal family of Mohoroba. Their meeting is destined, but unwanted by both the merfolk as well as the landers, since their relationship might eventually cause the tensions between the nations to burst.
Genre: Romance, Drama, Fantasy
Pairing: Chikane x Himeko
Words: 124,468
Chapters: 11
Status: Completed
This fanfiction has, unfortunately, been taken down by the author some years ago and will be uploaded again as soon as he’s done fixing some mistakes.
It’s such a pity that you can’t find this specific fanfiction online anymore…. This one seriously combines all my favorite themes in the most convenient way possible. There’s a whole lot of drama, there’s even more romance, and best of all, there’s an irresistible cuteness nicely mixed into almost each and every part of this story. Chikane and Himeko have seriously never been cuter together~
Number 1 is like some myth to me. I've heard about it several times, yet haven't been able to prove it actually exists. I don't normally like reading stuff, but maybe I can make an exception for this one, eventually.

It's when a fic writer uses a description instead of the characters name or a proper pronoun. It's annoying when a writer insists on referring to a character's hair color (the worst is anime fanfic which use “the bluenette”), extremely annoying when a writer tries to mix things up by constantly referring to a character by a different trait, for example “the brunette” in one sentence followed by “the young British archaeologist” in the next, and it's just offensive when a character is simply referred to by their ethnicity.
I haven't looked at all your recs yet but so far #10 and #9 are pretty bad offenders.
LikeLike
Oh yes, I know that happens in a lot of fanfics, really a lot.
I guess the only time I'm really bothered by that is when it happens too often, but especially that word “bluenette” would annoy me. Brunette or blonde is ok, but bluenette…. no thanks 😛
I wouldn't call it offensive, but I can understand why it bothers you.

Agree with you on KnM: Lovers Eternal. It's really such a masterpiece! They should have made this into anime adaptation instead. And glad you also like Priestesses Unchained. It's my all time fav. Cuteness overload :3
Also, have you read “The Sound of Falling Snow” or “An Iridescent Love To Light Oblivion” by Your Elegant Goddess? The cuteness and fluffiness are also overflowing on these two fanfics :3
I've also read a lot of ShizNat fanfics, but have not heard of written by ShayP, so I'll check them out later. The on-going tag kinda puts me off though >,<

Wow, first time seeing a person preferring ShayP fics over Inter Nos. I’m wanting to read something new, but should I bother with your lists? After all, Inter Nos is held high in every fandom I’ve across. It’s quality and impressive world-building alone is astounding, add to it the way ethne (author) flesh out the characters and their interaction. This fic also includes Chikane & Himeko btw since you have many KnM recs.

1. Fuuka Academy for the Naturally Gifted by EvanescentAmethyst (this one has school element that is similar to Saved by the Bell)
2. Melting the Ice Maiden by zeitgeistx (AU and OOC, but the story very enjoyable)
