I'm pretty sure it was Ranma.
Actually, I thought it was the Naruto Loops that spawned the Ranma Loops which spawned all the other loops...
Yeah, it was Naruto with the New Intros thread, started in 2008. The Ranma thread didn't start until 2009.
The real ideas behind all the time loops didn't spawn till what? 10-20 pages in?


EDIT: Woot!!! 1k posts

If that's the case, which came first?
New Intros. It was called that because it was just humorous versions of how Naruto could introduce himself to his team, and eventually the time loop idea was introduced, after the intros started to get a bit meta...

I think. And Zeebee, weren't you around for that?

I started new Intros, based off the ideas from the Chuunin Exam, a story about Naruto Looping throughout the exam until he becomes a Chuunin.

Then came the others, as ideas arose.

I was around for New Intros. But I didn't pay much attention to when it became the looper thread. Nor did I pay much attention to when Ranma started doing this. But I do know that looping canon, as such as it is, states that Ranma has eons on Naruto when it comes to looping.

Not so much eons on his as they started about the same time. It is just that Ranma doesn't exactly have a main enemy to defeat or work towards messing with over a 3-4 year period. He has maybe little more than a year thanks to the Endless Summer motif.

Meh, taking a break from frantically searching for ID.



It was unstoppable. Marching forward it swept through every line of Soul Society's defenses without even slowing down.

It was swift. Yoruichi and Soi-fon still hadn't managed to get a single hit in. In defiance of physics in a world where physics had already been thrown away it was always one step ahead of the two fastest Shinigami alive.

It was strong. Komamura's bankai had been summoned in a desperate attempt to slow the creature down...and had been used as an impromptu club. Komamura was looking decidedly dazed from this.

It was all-seeing. Aizen - yes Aizen, had stepped forward and surrounded the creature with illusions to lead it out of Soul Society and into a trap. He had been squashed into the ground without hesitation and his illusions disappeared as he lost consciousness.

It was pink. In fact, a good two-thirds of the creature was pink. Something that just made it even more horrifying.

"Kurosaki-kun, ruuun!" Hanataro urged the strange ryoka he had just met "it's Yachiruzilla!"

Ichigo Kurosaki just stared at the gigantic loli happily rampaging through the shattered remnants of Soul Society.

"What. The. Fuck." he replied intelligently.

It has been constantly referenced in the loops that Ranma has been doing this for thousands of years longer than anyone else.

see this is why i get annoyed with the loop thing. sure there are snips i enjoy. but as much as people deny it they've forced a canon, that most loop writers follow. it's canon that Ranma is top dog an oldest looper despite his loops thread starting after the naruto one. it's canon that they stopped themselves having kids. sure we can write our own stuff but the majority of material, the ideas we may want to expand on or follow up are unfortunately tied to that canon.

Damn Frustrating

At the end of the day humans crave structure, so we develop a structure we can follow rather than letting things fall into total anarchy. It's the samew reason any large group of people left alone will eventually develop laws and rules to govern themselves.

The only real way to stop it, would be to go off on your own and make snippets in spite of all that... And if you do it enough, people will follow..

All I can say is, write what you want... I mean come on, its a TIME LOOP... even if you do adhere to the supposed canon doesn't mean you have to include it... Your snippet could be from a time before all of that came around...

The Karakura Protective Force could only stare in shock.

Of course, that could be forgiven. Captain Commander Yamamoto had used the abilities of his zanpakut?, Ry?jin Jakka, to isolate Aizen and the two other renegade captains from their arrancar forces. At that moment, the shinigami had expected the Arrancars to attack.

Normally, they would be right.

This Loop was not normal. This was a Loop where Kisuke Urahara had once again, convinced Ichigo Kurosaki to take up the position of the Arrancar, Shirosaki. And as usual, Baraggan took exception to the Arrancar always covered in the cloak and hood.

Thus why this time, instead of the creepy Viking-like Arrancar, it was a severely covered oneùwith over twenty extra female Arrancar in his Fracci¾nùtaking command.

The first command?

ôTexam Hold æEm, no wilds,ö Shirosaki stated, as the assembled Espada and a few Fracci¾n gathered around a table on a nearby rooftop.

ôMwah,ö spoke up Captain Shunsui Ky?raku, ôarenÆt you guys gonna fight us?ö

ôWhy should we?ö asked Shirosaki, not even looking up from his cards.

ôIsnÆt that AizenÆs plan?ö asked Captain J?shir? Ukitake.

ôIf he had a plan, he didnÆt tell us,ö waved off Shirosaki. ôAnd quite frankly, since the man always told us to never trust him, IÆve decided since he wonÆt even try to get his ass out of the fireùliterally and figuratively speakingùwhy should we expend our energy to die in his name?ö

ôBut you outnumber us,ö stated Ukitake.

ôMost of my Fracci¾n are medicals,ö Shirosaki continued. ôTheyÆre just here to heal wounded. The rest I got from the former Segunda Espada. If they wish to through their lives away for a moronic quest, who am I to stop them.ö

The six Fracci¾n looked at him in surprise. ôYou-you mean it?ö asked Avirama Redder.

Shirosaki paused, upping the pot by a large amount, before turning to the Arrancar. ôI taught you what I felt was enough. Go do with it what you will. As I said, if you wish to die for a moronÆs quest, than do so. If you wish to die for the thrill of battle, then do so.

ôI simply tire of you complaining of no fights.ö He paused, looking at his cards. No way does Starrk have a flushà ôI raise fifty.ö

Ukitake simply palmed his face. ôShunsui, this is truly the oddest fight we have everùShunsui?ö he asked, looking about.

ôMwah, how much to get in?ö asked said Captain, now pulling up a chair beside the Espada.

ôSHUNSUI!ö yelled Ukitake. ôWHAT ARE YOU DOING?ö

ôCanÆt you tell?ö he asked. ôIÆm getting in on the game.ö

ôDo you have anything to trade for chips?ö asked Shirosaki.

ôI have this bottle full of hundred-year sake,ö he replied, setting it on the table.

Pausing for a moment, Shirosaki took it, shook it to see how full it was, then took out the stopper to sniff it. Deciding it was worth something and not poisoned, he slid over nearly half his chips, earning a curious eye from the other two Espada and the playing Fracci¾n.

ôWhat?ö he asked. ôIÆm tired of AizenÆs tea.ö Besides, this stuff was way better than what Kisuke usually got.

<hr>

ôWow, Captain Aizen,ö muttered Gin, looking about the fire. ôIt must be a stand-off. I ainÆt even felt a power increase.ö

ôGin.ö

ôYeah?ö

ôShut up.ö I knew I should have dealt with the one Arrancar to show common sense.

Oh, that's great!

Why do I see them doing that if someone offered to play cards?

I guess telling your people that they have no reason to trust you and making it clear that you don't care if they die, and you might be the cause, has some flaws.

Only if you haven't taken measures to insure their compliance-typically some form of irremovable compulsion effect going on.

like absolute hypnosis?
The problem with that is that the "Absolute Hypnosis" isn't anything of the sort, but rather, it's total control over sensory perception. That said, Bankai may very well be able to take it into actual hypnosis/mind control, and manipulating others is much easier if you can control all of another's senses, but as it is right now, the shikai can't do anything like that.

Unless Aizen lied about the effect of his sword, again... Which... May be quite possible...

If Aizen had mind control he wouldn't be fighting. He would have just asked for the key.

Considering that Aizen has total control over perception and yet still wasted his time in a pointless fight that left him with far fewer minions than when he started I don't think the series would have changed at all if he had hypnosis instead.

Of course the whole series has just been Aizen pulling shit for the lolz. Alternatively, the orb-of-super-plot-divce might have upped his abilities to do that while it's been supercharging him into a butterfly.
