This is a community dedicated to the anime movie Promare.
I wanted to create a central location so that people could share and find Promare-related content here on Dreamwidth. The community is named after one of the tracks on the Promare movie soundtrack by Hiroyuki Sawano - Burning Formation aka BAR2NG4女14yoN.
( The rules are simple... )
I decided to try writing some triple drabbles to exorcise some of the Promare AU ideas from my brain and also to act as 'proof of concept' for things that I might want to turn into longer stories. Let me know what you think!

Promare AU #1051 - reincarnation
Gueira, Meis. Gueira/Meis implied.
300 words. Sort of canon divergent. 2nd person POV. Some profanity.
Ao3.

One of the things I really love about the movie is the soundtrack. There were two parts of it that I found available to buy.
1) the Promare Original Soundtrack by Hiroyuki Sawano
What it says on the tin - includes most of the songs and music from the movie.
2) the Ambitious EP by Superfly
Features Lio's theme song, Kakusei (you know, the one that goes 'mahari yuware...'), and the song from the movie's end credits, Kori Ni Tojikomete.

I hadn't read any fanfic in a while and I'm only really getting started on Promare fic now, but here's some of the stuff that I've read so far...
01. Safekeeper by youaremarvelous. Lio/Galo, 11.4k, rated T. Post-canon, hurt/comfort, building to eventual relationship, *ongoing*.
This is mostly focused on Lio trying to find his purpose and place in the world without the Promare, with a side of Galo worrying about him/trying to help. Still ongoing, so mostly the hurt part out of the hurt/comfort so far and very slowly building the foundations for Lio/Galo.
02. Boy Meets Fire by Owlily. Lio & the Promare, 1.5k, G-rated. Post-canon/canon divergent, fix-it.
A cute and funny little fix-it fic about the Promare trying to look out for Lio after the events of the movie. Has accompanying art.
03. carry me home by sepiacigarettes. Lio/Galo, 2.8k, rated M. Post-canon, emotional hurt/comfort, start of relationship, includes sex scene.
Judging by the author's notes, this looks like it was a bit of a stream-of-conscious reaction after watching the movie for the first time. It's focused on Lio slowly healing after losing the Promare and finding himself growing closer to Galo in the process.
04. Something Human by hyrulehobbit. Lio/Galo, 38.3k, rated M. Post-canon, established relationship.
Starts out unassuming enough, with everyone being nicely happy and settled... only for fresh shenanigans to ensue, with the Promare returning and Kray stirring up trouble for our heroes again. This has a very cool sci-fi plot, with a very sweet portrayal of Lio and Galo's now established relationship woven into it.

I've posted these recs elsewhere, but this seemed like a good place to crosspost them. :D
I haven't had a chance to read widely in this fandom yet, so if anyone has read these and knows of other awesome canon-universe fics with a similar feel, I'd love to hear about them.
01. Wear Sunscreen by Winterhill. Lio/Galo, 6.1k, rated M.
Cute friends-to-lovers postcanon fic with Galo teaching Lio to swim, and the two of them figuring out what they are to each other, with rebuilding going on in the background. I thought it was really sweet.
02. Sparks Dance Under Your Fingertips by TaurusVersant. Heris/Lucia, 8.3k, G-rated. Post-canon, guilt & recovery, and the beginning of a relationship.
The shipping in this is low-key and understated; it's at the beginning stages and more of a hint that whatever Lucia and Heris have built up might lead to more.
03. Without you is how I disappear by henriqua. Lio/Gueira/Meis, 6.2k, rated T. Post-canon, with some hurt/comfort, and understated pining that ends with the beginning of a relationship. *This fic is part of a series; more details at the link.
This was sweet. The way the author wrote the dynamic between the Mad Burnish trio was very comfortable and cozy. It's exactly the kind of thing I was hoping to find for them.
04. Light Up the Sky by Oripoke. Lio/Galo + ensemble, 81k, rated M. Postcanon, friends-to-lovers, action/adventure, worldbuilding.
This fic does a great job of keeping up the general feel of canon; by that I mean mechs and fire and stuff blowing up. Like, if there were a second film, a lot of the plot-related stuff in here would be things that I can see happening. Ori takes what we get with the worldbuilding and explores it a bit; there's a lot that the film doesn't show us, so it was cool to see someone play with that. Take a look at this one if you're familiar with the canon and are in the mood to sink your teeth into something nice and long!
05. Rising From the Ashes by runicmagitek. Lio/Galo, 2.1k, rated T. Postcanon, friends-to-lovers. A sequence of triple drabbles.
Bite-sized and sweet postcanon fic in which Galo tries to help Lio figure out how to live an ordinary life now that everything has changed for him.
