The fanfiction is currently above 16,777,215 words (we don’t know the word count because fanfic.net uses 24-bit integers to count the amount of words and this fic surpassed the computational limit), and is 2000+ chapters. It is written by Jamesdean5842 and is still being written to this day.
The story is about an OC named JD Knudson who moves into the Louds town and goes on adventures with them after creating a superhero team with them. According to the recap (Obviously not even close to finished recap) on Tvtropes.org, the fic is mainly comprised of loud house episode plots rewritten to include the OC and a multitude of crossovers with other franchises from any piece of media you could possibly think of. (https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Recap/TheLoudHouseRevamped)
Some examples of the crossovers are Ed, Edd n Eddy, Naruto, Dante’s Inferno, Inside Out, Matilda, Pulp Fiction, CatDog, Metroid, The Simpsons. This is a very small selection of the crossovers done in the fic.
Despite the fic’s main characters being minors, the story contains lots of swearing, sex, romance, drugs, and violence. The sheer amount of strange details about this fic is insane, reading the TVtropes page will give you some insane mental whiplash. (https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Fanfic/TheLoudHouseRevamped)
This is just the tip of the iceberg for this story, it is absolutely insane.
Hasn’t this been going on for many years? I’d be curious to know what the author actually feels about the work. Like do they go back and read their earlier chapters and cringe or are they merely impressed that they have gotten better. Have they gotten better? Or has the work degenerated as any long running fiction usually does after a time. Are there particular arcs to read that are excellent and others to skip.
Most importantly: is there fanfic of this work?
It was started in 2017 and is being updated daily.
According to people who have read a great portion of it, the writing is god awful and does not improve the longer you read.
From what I can tell from Jamesdean5842’s profile, he is quite proud of The Loud House Revamped calling it his “prized work” (https://www.fanfiction.net/u/5625800/Jamesdean5842).
The first TVtropes link I put has a list of the “episodes” that have been documented by readers so far. Each chapter seems to be its own episode of sorts.
The plot itself is not very interesting, the only thing noteworthy about the plot is all the bizarre and absurd things that occur in it, but it is not fun to read. You can see examples of the strange things that happen in the story on TVtropes.
As far as I can tell, there are no fanfics of this particular work, but there is a lot of fan fiction of the Loud House.
When did it stop being the super smash bros subspace fanfiction?
That one is only about 4 million words
The Loud House Revamped passed Subspace Emissary a while ago though I cannot find when that happened exactly.
One of my favorite things about fanfiction is the wild crossovers. This particular fic doesn’t sound like my thing, but just, people go so far off the rails in a way that is really enjoyable to me. Sometimes for “hilarious chaos” reasons, but other times people somehow manage to pull off a serious and moving story out of a blatantly ridiculous premise, which is just about my favorite thing ever.
Unrelated… Why does anyone choose fanfiction.net or wattpad over ao3 for hosting fic these days? There’s definitely a cultural gap between the sites and the userbases, but even accounting for that, ao3’s tag system is so much better and easier to search/better for discoverability, and there aren’t ads. Are fanfiction.net and wattpad allowing authors to monetize fics or something? Or is there some other advantage I’m missing? Or is it just habit and sticking with the site they got used to when they got into fanfic?
I think fanfiction.net technically banned sexually explicit fics ages ago (idk about wattpad), so couldn’t explicit fics get unexpectedly taken down there, too? Or did they walk that one back?
I really thought that the Sexy Times with Wangxian fic was the longest fic, but upon double checking it was only the most tagged fic on AO3 at a measly 1+ million words.
Just trying to comprehend 16 million words is just… mind-boggling.
This work of art sounds invaluable. I can’t wait for the Down The Rabbit Hole episode. From tvtropes:
Later-Installment Weirdness: Earlier chapters were only remakes of Loud House episodes with J.D. appearing to help out Lincoln and Clyde, while later chapters contain the following: entire wikia entries, transformation sequences that are pages long, Lincoln’s harem growing bigger by each chapter, song lyrics copypasted, and gym sequences featuring 900,000,000,000,000 crunches.
The Wandering Inn is an OC web-serial which is currently at 12,246,348 words and also still going. Not quite as large, but still very big.
This sounds like Mr. Boop but without the self awareness.
