Re: OCs in fanfiction

[(Anonymous)]

I actually really like them as side characters, especially if it's a fic where the main character is outside of their normal setting (i.e. say a character from a fighting heavy genre/media is "settling down" or trying to have a normal life). I also am fine with a lot of isekai esque/author insert stuff as long as it's not a power fantasy thing.

My immediate NO is when they're named after characters in other media. I LIKE crossovers and I still don't want to see your quirky trio with characters named Sakura, Sasuke, and Naruto that otherwise don't share any personality traits/came out of nowhere. It lacks creativity. It's annoying. And it always feels like the creator is like nudging me like "huh? huh? get it?" And it's never a small fandom they're "referencing" either.

Couldn’t agree more! I read a fic like that was full of these “shoutout” OCs that weren’t enough like the referenced characters to fit the lowkey crossover the author claimed it was.

It just felt lazy, like they weren’t original enough to come up with new names for their OCs. But it also felt like they weren’t talented or confident enough to make an actual crossover that would justify these characters just being in the fic.

I still kinda enjoyed it, but it don’t think it was completely unironic enjoyment.
