It's-fukufic-time:

https://archiveofourown.org/works/60174424 — "Transcendent Destiny" by Trisar. Finished at eleven chapters.

Ranma is getting these weird headaches, and a dotted circle tends to pop up on his/her forehead.

The legalities around siccing the JSDF on Godzilla are rather messy and confusing.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/60293077 — "Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Ranma" by stsai465. R/SM cross, twelve chapters.

Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Ranma? Why does this sound familiar?

Some old oddities:

This tidbit definitely passed me by.

Scary.

Here's to hoping the child never becomes a hardcase.

A Kuroneko (aka Yamato Transport) employee or Jiji from Kiki's Delivery Service?

You will have to jump back, forth and sideways to get as much of the fanart as possible.

Newish-fic-time:

https://www.fanfiction.net/s/14400047/1/Not-So-Heroic by sakurademonalchemist. Smallville/Once Upon A Time crossover, seven chapters.

There is a new Green Lantern that is behaving quite unusually for a super. Read with care lest you damage any stitches.

In which Xander is on Remnant, being benevolent towards the faunus. Maybe not wise but definitely benevolent.

Gotta drop this in as a bonus.

Gundams (Avengers Disassemble!) and Samurai Spidermen are nice. A combination would be even nicer. Are you aware Disney has created a robot Spiderman acrobat? It's on youtube. There's a short video, and a longer one. And more, but I thought these two were best.

[Té Rowan]

Hadn't heard about Disney's mecha-Spidey. But then I'm so not a moviegoer.
