The new chapter is up! Read: Prologue · Scene 1 ~ Scene 14 (new!) 

OMG it is so fun to draw them sleeping on the same bed. Visit the AO3 link for more art I haven’t posted yet. Or… wait.

Also, a new character is appearing on the scene this time! Enjoy~

Scene 13 [Akane] Routine

The new chapter is up! Read: Prologue · Scene 1 ~ Scene 13 (new!) 

This chapter is closer to “fanart with fanfic” than “fanfic with fanart,” so do jump in to see what’s there! It will take some time for me to share it all on Tumblr. But if you are waiting to read it... Then do NOT go in. I'm sharing the least spoiler-y images for now. Mostly. HEADS UP! The total chapter number increased post-beta and edits in the last arc of this fanfic :D. It will be 20 chapters, including the prologue plus the main epilogue.

Scene 12 [RANMA] Amendment

“But… sleeping together? For real!? Akane had lost her mind. And she’d also promised a barrel of honey to a starving bear.”

The final arc for 15 Minutes to Save Him is almost ready! I added both text and images. Now we're at 20 chapters for the main story, including the prologue + main epilogue. Thank you, betas!

PS. Remember this sketch? The final art finally made its release inside the story~

Curious: What line or moment of 15 Minutes to Save Him (my illustrated fanfic) stuck with you the most so far?

[coraltinyrose]

Ranma crying "AKANEEEEE!!!" | And a heads up that there may not be a new [15 Minutes to Save Him] illustrated rankane fanfic chapter this week, as the art isn't ready. The beta(s) and I are focused on reviewing and editing the whole final arc's text. So... invisible progress for now. ----------- Art inspired by Rumiko Takahashi's work.

What Pokémon would the Ranma cast adopt to fight together with?

I'd say... -Ranma: A big bad bird for aerial battle. Or a Charizard, and not always be on good terms. Charizard doesn't want to be used to warm kettles. It's beneath him! -Akane: Psyduck? Powerful + derpy + duck! Or Poliwrath? -Akari: Lechonk, Emboar... -Ryoka: A type opposite to Ranma's! Probably water, which weakens Ranma's Pokémon but can backfire on Ryoga too (P-chan) -Shampoo: Espeon as Ranma's weak point? Hm, repetitive. -Kodachi: Gigglipuff. Cutie and sleeps opponents. And it has a temper!

What if Ranma ALSO moves in his sleep?

Art notes:

This one is my absolute favorite of ALL 15Min fanfic’s art! It has been since I imagined it, and the clean-up version still is. I’m a bit sad the “hold” in the sketches is more clingy, and it looks more comical overall, but I had to let his arms expand a bit to match the pose a bit more realistically as I draw their bodies in more detail. Despite the red hair, Ranma is in male form here. I’ve just been simplifying most of the art of the fanfic into Akane-blues and Ranma-reds. But if you want to imagine he’s in a buffed female form… well, why not? You’re free to do so! I actually like that this art can fit a bunch of scenarios.

Yes, I made a poll and talked about no sharing full art too soon after a chapter's release. BUT that may not apply to every single chapter. In fact, there is and will be higher spoilery art inside the AO3 fanfic. I haven't shared everything…  And if you want to read the fic and avoid spoilers through art social media “new chapter up” updates, then subscribe to the fic on AO3. I wait hours (if not 1 or more days) before sharing art online. Cropped or not.

Scene 10 [Akane] Fear

The new chapter of my Rankane illustrated fanfic is up! Read: Prologue · Scene 1 ~ Scene 10 (new!)

[coraltinyrose]

Thanks for participating! The results are pretty close, and on Twitter, with 27 votes, "B" won by a higher margin. So I will stay on the least-spoilery side for the last chapters. Still, everything (or most) art will be shared in here eventually. At least that's the plan!

The final chapters for "15 Minutes to Save Him" are rather close, and things will get spoiler-y when I use accompanying art to announce a new chapter's release. Should I... A) share the full art 24h post chapter release B) share a crop in 24h, and wait more days to share full images on socials

Notes: -I will share all art on socials sooner or later. You may just want to see the fanart, not read. -The top spoiler-free way to follow my fic is to subscribe to my AO3 account so you get a notification as soon as a chapter is up and read it within 24 hours!

I'm asking this on Twitter too. I'll sum votes...

Ranma styles mix redraw~ (This is a FAKE frame made just for fun, not profit. / Not AI)

らんま作画スタイル融合 (このアニメ風一コマ は遊び心で作ったもので、営利目的ではありません / AI不使用)

[coraltinyrose]

I drew a frame with a style mash-up! Shall I color it?

Scene 9 [Akane] News

New chapter is up! Read: Prologue · Scene 1 ~ Scene 9 (new!)

Excerpt:

Ranma’s travel backpack and camping gear were in disarray, and those items didn’t tell much. So, she continued inspecting the rest of his meager possessions.  School supplies… A foldable umbrella… Hidden snacks... Yeah, probably hidden from his dad. A razor… He shaves? Well, we’re 18… But why is it here and not in the bath area? Ew hairs!… Moving on… A few old manga and even fewer books... Four old boxes of medicine… for food poisoning? Why would he need…? Akane narrowed her yes. Ranma you #*!)?!% !&* !! Okay, Moving On!! Another foldable umbrella… A paper bag with period pads. Meh, I knew about that secret already… Oh! What’s this? A fancy spray bottle? He uses perfume?! Hoooo~ Akane smiled devilishly at it, ready to use this for teasing ammunition or to take a curious, sneaky sniff maybe. She turned it over in her hand to check the label properly. Of what scent… ? “Catnip, The Anti-Cat Essence”. She blinked twice and read it again to make sure she had gotten it right. Oh, Ranma! Who scammed you?! Nabiki? She put a hand on her mouth to cover her laughing and feeling somehow vindicated for his exaggerated stomach ache medicine supplies.
