I recently noticed that there are no actual parodies of FoR on this site.
Not one. So I thought what the heck, I may as well try my hand at one.
This is a parody of the anime. I haven't read the manga yet, though I do know a lot about the differences (and as such I can make jokes on them). Plus it makes it a lot shorter a job. Maybe once I have finished this and read the manga I might consider doing one of the manga (if this is any good).
Obviously, this will contain just about every spoiler for the anime you could have, and several for the post-anime manga.
Just a note: I categorise fans into several categories. English Speaking Fans really means fans who don't speak (or read) Japanese. Japanese Speaking Fans, obviously, means fans who do. Fans Who Have Read The Manga means fans who have read the manga, for fairly blatant reasons I should think. Fans Who Haven't Read The Manga is the opposite. Why am I bothering to explain this anyway? Other than the first, none of these need explanations! Oh well.
Disclaimer: Nothing here belongs to me. None of it. Except myself (Author, for those who needed all of my explanation on the fans above).

Backstory with the time travel thing happens. You know it. I don't need to describe it. And I'm not going to.

Domon: Graaaaaah!! I'm stronger than you!
Recca: But I'm better than you.

Homer: Dig your way out!!!!
Recca: To further prove my superiority, I'm going to drop a highly dangerous explosive on you!
Domon: Ow.

Author: Looks like a pretty smart cast so far, eh folks?

Recca: Damn.
Author: Meanwhile.
- Construction Site -
Yanagi: Let's go for a walk next to this highly unsafe construction site!

- Park -
Yanagi: You have a scratch. Let me heal it with my BIG SECRET! *heals*

- Warehouse -
Recca: I will now try to impress you with my fireworks!

Kage Houshi: No I'm not. Now show me your flame!
Recca: What?
Kage Houshi: *fight*
Recca: *lose*
Kage Houshi: I will now kill the girl! If you don't do something dramatic, Recca, she's going to die! You don't have much time! The knife is moving towards her! Only something highly unexpected will stop her dying! She's going to die now!
Recca: NOOOOOOOO!!!!! *flame*
Kage Houshi: Ha! I'm not dead! *leaves*

- School -
Fuuko: Haha! My mysterious powerful device will enable me to beat you!
Kage Houshi: But she's obsessed with fighting because of it.
Yanagi: I have suddenly turned up and now I shall get help!

Yanagi: *collapse*
Mysterious Domon-like figure: *help*
Recca: *losing*
Domon: *save Recca*
Fuuko: *attack*
Domon: *ignore*
Fuuko: *wake* Huh? Wha?
Kage Houshi: No you don't.
Gem: Shing!
Recca: Yaaar! *flames*

- Fountain -
Mikagami: Pity me fangirls, for I am attractive, have a tragic background and have my own theme music!
Fangirls: Yes sir! *worship*
Mikagami: I said pity me! Not worship me!
Fangirls: Yes sir! *worship*
Mikagami: Oh, forget it. Hey, why don't I reveal my mysterious weapon in public for no reason!
Kage Houshi: I know all about you!
Mikagami: *flashback*
Kage Houshi: Fight Recca!
Mikagami: No.
- Hanabishi House -
Recca: Who is my real mother?
Recca's Dad: Oh, um, eh. Hey! Look over there! It's a distraction!
Recca: Huh? *looks*
- Road -
Recca: Someone's following me!
- Fountain -
Recca: Isn't it odd that although I was running away from someone following me he was waiting for me at the fountain?
Mikagami: You know who killed my sister!
Recca: No I don't.
Mikagami: LIAR! *whack*
Recca: I still don't know.
Mikagami: *flashback* Now I shall explain all about my weapon and exactly what it does.
Recca: I know, I'll attack him with my uniquely ill-suited special power! *lose*
Mikagami: You are my sister!

Fuuko: Recca is depressed.
Yanagi: Let's go to an amusement park then!
- Amusement Park -
Recca: I am still depressed.
Mikagami: You must come with me so Recca will fight me again. Even though I stopped the fight last time because you were there.
Yanagi: Recca! Don't come! It's a trap!
Recca: Hm? A trap! I must walk into it!
- Mirror Room -
Recca: I am no longer depressed! I must beat up Mikagami now! *fight*
Mikagami: *winning*
Kage Houshi: Guess who!
Recca: I will now stupidly give away how little I have left in me.
Mikagami: You're an idiot.
Author: Didn't we already establish that?
Mikagami: Yeah, but I wasn't there at the time.
Author: Oh, that's all right then.
Recca: Despite the fact that I just smashed all the mirrors, I will fool you with a mirror of myself!
Mikagami: Oh no! I lost because he punched me once!
Kage Houshi: Now all of you that have fought each other must work together.
Mikagami: No.
Yanagi: Don't worry Recca, my BIG SECRET will heal you! *heal*
- Mysterious Place -
Mori Kouran: Capture the healing girl!
Kurei: Didn't you say that already?
Mori Kouran: Yeah, but the main characters were doing important things, so we had to move reeeally slooowly until they finished.
Closing Theme plays
English Speaking fans: Why are there 2 lines of English in this song that make no grammatical sense?
Japanese Speaking fans: Great, more highly relevant music.
