Stories focused on the family and the friendly relationships of the cast. Plot-focused stories or light day-in-the-life stories. Pretty much anything that isn't focused on romance.

Constellations by UnwelcomeStorm

  • Crossover with: Worm
  • Recommended by: Veris, eeveelutionlover2000
  • Length: In Progress
  • Synopsis: The sun rises over Brockton Bay.
  • Comments: Ammy makes friends with a shy human girl, Taylor, and subtly gives her some direction in her life by seemingly tossing the logical approach to things into the wind. Equally heartwarming and hilarious, it is a good read. Prior knowledge of the web serial is helpful, but not entirely needed to enjoy this work.

Fading Shadow, Rising Sun by Stone Masked Taliesin

  • Crossover with: Persona 4
  • Recommended by Tropemania
  • Length: Dormant; last updated July 2020
  • Synopsis: Evil rises to take its place, and now the human race is at stake. Not only one, but two worlds threatened, the imaginations of the Dark Lord loom. Ruin lies at the wings of lies, and truth is hidden in a blanket of fog. But never fear, for a Hero will rise. Aided by the hot sun herself.
  • Comments: An interesting story that blends concepts and characters from both series into a new and exciting spin on two memorable and lovable games.

Land of One Hundred Stories

  • Recommended by: Eagle Fox, Nightgazer, and moooomoooo, eeveelutionlover2000
  • Synopsis: Ammy and Waka embark on an adventure based off of various old Japanese ghost stories in the fog covered land of Kaiden.
  • Length: Oneshot
  • This fanfic isn't on fanfiction.net. This is this troper's favorite Okami fanfic of all time. Ammy stays true to her game self and doesn't talk yet she is probably the funniest character in the entire story. It follows the format of the game in the way it combines characters and plots from different stories all into one package. The friendship between Waka and Ammy is definitely one of the highlights of the story.
  • Great writing that fits perfectly with the games' tone and canon. Really makes me want to hear more about Waka and Ammy's adventures after Okami.

One Day To Live

  • Recommended by phazonfarmer
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: This is an High School AU set in modern times. The main cast is Amaterasu Snowy, her boyfriend Waka, Issun, and an Original Character named Kiyoko. Who happens to have a terminal illness.
  • Comments: The writing in this is incredible. It gives each character a distinct personality that helps drive the plot. Just don't let the name fool you; Kiyoko actually lives for several days after her diagnosis.
    • YMMV- The characters just... didn't feel right to me. If this WASN'T an Okami story, I might have said different, but the characters just don't seem the same as their game counterparts.

Through A Sue

  • Recommended by thepunkmaster
  • Status: Dormant
  • Synopsis: "When Issun finds an overly sparkly scroll on the shelves, he feels that he must show it to his friends. However, the glittering ink weaves a story that no one in Nippon has ever seen before. Join Amaterasu and her companions as they fight an enemy that is destroying all that they hold dear- A Mary Sue."
  • Length: In progress.
  • Comments: For the Okami fandom, you don't see many fics around that address the issue of Mary Sues. This one is amazing. The writing quality is wonderful. No one is out of character, and their reactions to the fanfiction that they are reading are perfectly in character as well. It even ties fanfiction to game mechanics in ways that makes sense. Overall, this story introduces the concept of a Mary Sue in a very clever way.

RESET

  • Recommended by Kittastrophe, moooomoooo
  • Status: Complete
  • Pairing(s): Amaterasu/Waka
  • Synopsis: The courtship of Amaterasu and Ushiwaka. Full gamespoilers.
  • Comments: Really beautifully written oneshot about the relationship between Waka and Ammy. It's set pre-game and the story has a beautiful flow to it. Takes a few things from the mythology the characters were based on.

A Spark Of Moonlight

Land of the Slaying Moon by Rosethorn

  • Recommended by: eeveelutionlover2000
  • Crossover with: Bleach
  • Status: Dead
  • Synopsis: Aizen is not the only entity to take notice of Ichigo's potential. He should have looked into reasons why Karakura suddenly regain its Juureichi status. Or why it became known as "the town of the empty seat (throne)" as opposed to "the village of the divine tree".
Shiranui was mostly in it for worth while companionship and a modern day Celestial envoy. Ichigo just wanted to make sure June 17th never happened again.
