I'm reading a fic, enjoying it even, when out of nowhere chapter 12 is suddenly devoted to extreme Akane bashing.

Note the fic is question is a Yu Yu Hakusho/Negima crossover.

The Akane Tendo bashing literally came out of nowhere, for no purpose, FOR A WHOLE CHAPTER! What the hell?!

Not just that, but the tone of the chapter was completely at odds with the rest of the fic. Just, weird. (Also annoyed the author doesn't seem to recall all the training Kuwabara did with Kurama)

From another story of his, totally out of the blue.

QuoteAt the same time, a certain imortal senshi of time suppresed a shudder, feeling a sudden urge to stock up on aspirin and booze. She hadn't had a premonition THIS bad since she'd ensured Saotome Ranma wasn't a threat to Crystal Tokyo. Who knew hitching him off to the youngest daughter would ensure he died before the great freeze?

Yep, rabid Akane hater.

Defense accepted, but furthermore!

QuoteThough Luna always wondered just where the strangely adaptable Youma had come from.

In a cell of the JSDF, a certain uncute Tomboy was rolled in on a stretcher, wrapped in a straightjacket with a muzzle firmly in place to keep her from biting her way out...again.

"Court is now in session." A stern looking judge called out, several snipers aiming their weapons at the girl, lest she, or any of her would be suitors, got any funny ideas. They'd already been assured that a certain Lost Boy was currently trying to find his way to the great wall in Antarctica, but better safe than sorry.

"Tendo Akane," the judge growled out, glaring down at the captive with a scowl "you are hereby charged with creating an enviromental hazard that almost wiped out the minato ward of Tokyo," he pointed to a picture of the creatue that had battled the scouts the week before "As well as the attempted poisoning of your entire familly, and several guests" here he turned his attention to a row of witnesses, including the girls father, who was upright but not all there because of the drugs needed to purge his system "how do you plead?"

"This is all Ranma's Fault!"

Done.  Share more precious gems~!
I would, but I don't save the links to any of the fics that I can't stand.

I do wonder, though; do you think people who watched the anime have a much worse opinion of Akane (and most of the characters) than those who read the manga? I own the whole manga run but couldn't get through the second season of the anime (I like the movies/OAVs, though.) I just don't see how you read her character like this.

Brian

That's pretty much a fact.

Most of the worst Akane bashing comes from the anime, not the manga.  Akane's worst character arc in the manga is proooobably the Battle Dougi arc.  Yeah.

In the anime, she's just a psychotic tsundere locked in tsuntsun mode -- with the switch broken off and thrown away for good measure.
