Yeah, the first chapter struck me as rather horrid. A familiar take on the Girl-who-lived idea so common in fanfic (And I thought Blaise had gender issues...),
with an added dose of 'every single character ever is a backstabbing murdering rapist asshole', followed up by 'the supposed hero commits mass
murder because she's the hero and they're the bad guys'. Hell, Skysabers followup chapter was actually BETTER then the first one
Skysaber Train Wreck #1: The Skysaber self insert. The ultimate in Marty Stu godmodding. Can outfight, out-manipulate, out-think and outdo anyone and everyone,
without even trying. If it's female, it will fall for him and join his harem. If she's a lesbian, his mere presence will turn her straight. They'll
all hold the opinion that all other women out there should join the harem. Men won't be jealous or angry, because he's just that awesome. Unless
they're evil, at which point they'll be complete monsters anyway and he'll destroy them. While preaching about something in a superior tone. At the
same time, his own actions will be well over the moral event horizon, but hey, he's the incredible Skysaber! Love him and worship him! So what if he
destroys his adopted sisters self confidence with a series of curses and tortures that makes her think she's a worthless nobody and how nice it was of her
dear brother to help her? Lina Inverse is better as a broken bookworm anyway, right?
Skysaber Train Wreck #2: Uncontrolled crossovers. This is common to any fanfic author out there. God knows I've done it myself before. This one is merely a
STW on the grounds that he uses the same writing approach. A character will be designated the Marty Stu and proceed to be as awesome as Skysaber. He'll
preach, mock, cross the moral even horizon, while easily destroying any horrible flanderization of supporting characters that appear. And if it's female
(And not Akane), he'll end up with her in his harem.
Skysaber Train Wreck #3: Technically a variant of STW #2, but without any real crossovers. Expect Godmodding, incredible powers, and immense stupidity from
everyone around Marty.
Common to all STW's is the need to bash and abuse Akane Tendo in every possible way, and to then blame other people for being mean to the writer and
running away for a year or so.
... Oddly enough, I still have Guilty Pleasures of some of his older works. Especially the Labors he did with Grey, although that may because someone else
wrote the scenes I like... *Shrug*
