"Until the End of Time" by gofer-chan

This Golden Oldie is "Until the End of Time" by gofer-chan, hosted here.

TV Tropes uses an illustration for the fic on its page for "Crack Fic" and says about it:

Quote :

There is a crossover fanfic that was, I shit you not, a crossover between Dragon Ball Z and The Diary of Anne Frank. Anne lives, falls in love with Goku, and Hitler turns Super Saiyan shortly before Goku vaporizes him. One gets the feeling that this was inspired by an O.D. on a combination of Psychadelics, Ritalin, and bad ingenuity.

Topless Robot featured it way back in 2008 and said:

I really, really have nothing to say. There are simply no words in the English language to describe this, or my feelings about it.

Yes, that's right: it's a goddamn Dragon Ball Z/Anne Frank crossover. One of the most notorious examples of intra-contiuity shipping, gofer-chan's "Until the End of Time" meshes the genres of romantic melodrama, revisionist history, and batshit insanity by pairing off doomed diarist and Holocaust victim Anne Frank (you know... that Anne Frank!) with Goku, the intrepid protagonist of Dragon Ball Z and self-proclaimed strongest man in the universe.

I think Dragon Ball Z/Anne Frank is a great idea.

I always though this one was so deranged it was awesome.

Just as with every badfic that's particularly brain-breaking, I came across many rumors that it was written deliberately badly, but after about half an hour of googling I gave up on personally locating any proof.

I remember this. There really are no words...

I like to imagine gofer-chan as a lonely younger sibling with few friends. One day, she happens to overhear the following exchange:

Stoner older brother: Hey, you know what'd be like, awesome?

Brother's stoner friend: What?

S.O.B: If, like, this Dragonball thing had, like, Nazis. Nazis were fuckin hardcore! With the killing and the tanks and shit!


This gets her young mind churning, and Until The End of Time is crapped onto the internet.

Even though she says it was her brother's idea, I always imagined something more like this...

Open on a messy room. One can tell it is a girl's room from the light wallpaper and pink bedspread, but posters for shonen anime cover the walls. Gofer-chan, our heroine, is sitting on her bed, clutching a copy of Diary of a Young Girl and hanging her head in heartbreak.

Gofer-chan: [on the verge of tears] Oh, Diary of a Young Girl is so sad! Why would Hitler be so cruel as to kill a nice girl like that? [Gofer-chan sobs] I almost wish they didn't make us read it in school. If only someone could have saved Anne Frank...

Gofer-chan looks up at a nearby DBZ poster featuring a musclebound Goku looking benevolent and heroic. A smile slowly spreads across her face.

Gofer-chan: [sounding hopeful] He could have saved Anne! He could save anybody! And he'd fight Hitler too! I've always dreamed of seeing Goku save a real person...[sighs] if only...[a pause] wait! [excited] I'll write a fanfic! Anything can happen in fanfic!

Gofer-chan bounces off the bed and rushes to her computer. She sits in a swivel-chair with her back to the audience. The stage darkens and spotlight falls across her upper body, and she begins a portentious narration over the soft sound of typing

Gofer-chan: [dignified] Anne sighed as she sat in her room, staring at her wall...

What really makes this fic an absolute classic is Hitler quoting M. Bison from the Street Fighter movie before turning into a Super Saiyan.

And then I read Legend of Koizumi...

Yeah, it ranks right up there with New Coke and the Edsel.
