General Fics

Stories focused on the family and the friendly relationships of the cast. Plot-focused stories or light day-in-the-life stories. Pretty much anything that isn't focused on romance.

LvM: War of Hearts by HikariSword

• Recommended by SAMAS
• Synopsis: Latooni lures Mai out to the Earth Cradle and tries to Murder the Hypotenuse, but things quickly turn serious. Why is Latooni taking such drastic measures? Why are Arado and Seolla helping her? Will Excellen quit messing around with the simulator?
• Comments: A fanfic, you YouTube? "Blasphemy!" You say. "Madness!" You say. ("SPARTA!" I say, and kick you down a well) But yeah, it's basically turned out that way, at least that's how I see it.
• Series Represented:

Super Robot Wars SWF (YouTube Edition for easy loading; it can also be seen in actual SWF form on Newgrounds and DeviantArt) by Resak

• Recommended by Nerdorama
• Synopsis: Another animated fic. Really, it's just an excuse to watch half of the Alpha Numbers kicking ass in a hilarious fashion, but hey, it's half of the Alpha Numbers kicking ass in a hilarious fashion.
• Comments: It's probably best to remember that this was made in Flash years before the existence of SRW Original Generations or the Free Battle mode if you're a stickler for quality special effects...in your fanfic.
  • Update: The YouTube version appears to be quite dead. So here's the Deviantart version, for the sake of convenience. Enjoy!
• Series Represented: Super Robot Wars Alpha Banpresto Originals, Gundam Wing, Super Dimension Fortress Macross, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Gunbuster, and very briefly Mobile Suit Gundam: Chars Counterattack.

Super Robot Wars Omega by Lanthanon

• Recomended by Pata Hikari
• Synopsis: Author Lanthanon desided to write his own Super Robot Wars story, and it's working out pretty well so far. The stars are Erin and Jedis Shore, a brother and sister pair. The story starts with the setting up of several anime plots, plus the original characters stories begin... Erin has been living in space, making a living doing shipments for Mao Industries. However one day while on what she thought was a routine shipment, The Titans attacked her ship. It turns out they were carrying the experimental Huckebein Slasher, she ends up Falling Into the Cockpit and fighting them off. Meanwhile, on Earth, Jedis is in the middle of an attack on Tokyo by Baron Asura in the chaos, he stumbles across Sousuke Sagara, who claims to know him, having worked with him in Mithril... things get more complicated from here.
• Comments: According to the author, it's dead.

Super Robot Wars Quest by Sciencegar Sciencebolt

• Recommended (and archived) by Haken Browning
• Synopsis: A choose-your-own-adventure-type fic perpetrated on 4chan's /m/ (and archived externally) wherein the Shadow Mirror version of Katina Tarask explores the Original Generation universe's twisted counterpart...shortly before absconding to ANOTHER parallel universe of her (well, her and a rogue Duminass's) own creation.
• Comments: Threads are collated into "discs" for archive brevity's sake. Also, a novelization may or may not be in the works depending on how rights negotiations on IRC work out.
• Series Represented:
  • Disc 1: Practically every imaginable Shadow Mirror counterpart of the Original Generations-era Banpresto Originals, plus some 75% of the ACTUAL Banpresto Originals, AND a smattering of wacky cameos.
  • Disc 2: While getting our favorites from Disc 1 back together, we've currently stumbled across... *takes breath* several of Godzilla's also-rans, Zoids from the old UK comic (with a few new robots, including Grimlock as a Gojulas), Gender-Bent Shura, The Big O, Metal Wolf Chaos (sharing an Eagle Land with Getter Robo), Kamen Rider Spirits, several series of Macross, a Grail War being fought by people from a variety of properties Sciencegar couldn't integrate fully...and somewhere in the background is a war in Cyberspace where XANA is turning people into Orphenochs to feed them to gestating Mimetic Beasts - though with our heroine getting her own Digimon, that may get its share of the limelight soon enough...

"Super Robot Taisen S" by Lily Nadesico

• Recommended by Gelgoogle
• "Synopsis": Space Century 141. In a dark, oppressive future, begins the incredible journey of a courageous female pilot and her struggle to set right what once went wrong...
• "Comments": As the synopsis suggests, it's shaping up to be Darker and Edgier than your standard SRW fare, but that's hardly a bad thing. Lily has also found the time to throw in some amusing in-jokes, particularly with Char and Durandal's scheming conversation, so it's not all doom and gloom. Only a few members of the massive cast pieces have appeared, but it has all the makings of great fun.

"Super Robot Wars Original Generation 3A" by Neo Juste Belmont

• Recommended by Catch The Sun
• Synopsis: After the Inspectors War and the ODE incident, the Earth Federation was placed under the tyrannical control of those such as Kenneth Garret and Graien Grazman but was otherwise once again at peace. However, this tyrannical regime simply sowed the seeds of corruption and rebellion. So, soon after peace returns to Earth, a rebellion breaks out once more. However, strangely, they seem to have armed with Shadow-Mirror-like mechs. What does this mean? Could it be that the Shadow Mirror is not as destroyed as everyone imagines? To combat this new threat, the ATX Team and the Aggressors are mobilised once more. However, the SRX Team is nowhere to be found. They, as well as various other people around the Earth, seem to have simply vanished without a trace. Could this 'vanishing people' incident be related to the mysterious "La Gias" Masaki spoke of? And what about these mysterious "Guests" and the "Shura"? What part will they have on the events to come?
  • tl;dr version: A fan writes a version of Super Robot Wars Original Generation 3. And it is awesome.
  • Word of God says: Please be wary if there are some differences with the OG Gaiden, because this was written before OGG was released, so there are differences, such as how the Compact 3 and Reversal characters are handled (follows a more faithful adaptation to the original source, along with the Compatible Kaiser (And the lack of MX originals).)
  • Trope Page under construction
• Comments: It's a script fic. Not that it's a bad thing. Apparently completed. Or as completed as it'll get considering the last post was 2 years ago and the thread appears to be locked.
• 'Series represented' (as in new series since OG2.5: Super Robot Wars EX, Super Robot Wars Alpha 2, Super Robot Wars Destiny, Super Robot Wars Judgment, Super Robot Wars Compact 3, Super Robot Wars Reversal, Super Robot Wars 4
