Sometimes the fans think that the Powers That Be screwed it. Maybe they've wasted the storyline, or they went for the obvious when a better solution should have been favored. Maybe they didn't focus on a certain character enough. Maybe they've paired the wrong couple together, or they don't even understand who the true hero of the story should be. Or, even worse, they've killed/derailed the best/most important character, or given the story an ending that is unsatisfying for whatever reason. Whatever the reason, some fans are dissatisfied and they won't be content to complain about it. They're going to address it, in a fanfic. In short, an AU with an agenda, rather than as an intellectual exercise. The motivations for writing these can vary greatly, along with the perceived justification — they may want to "correct" something that went just fine, or want to offer an alternative to something genuinely and incredibly stupid. If the writer is lucky, the trend may be popular enough that the fans don't mind at this point. Some Fix Fics use a Peggy Sue to get the ball rolling. Others bring in a Fixer Sue. Usually a side effect of Die for Our Ship or He's Just Hiding. Fix Fics come in two varieties. Either they can be an Alternate Universe Fic that ignores the unwanted elements and replace them with something better. Or they can be a Pseudo-Canonical Fic taking the form of an elaborate explanation in story form that gives a whole new spin to the latest episode/chapter/volume. Compare Retcon and Armed with Canon, the Canon versions of a Fix Fic. If different official writers in the same franchise try to impose their view of canon on each other by force, see Armed with Canon. In very rare cases, may lead to Ascended Fanon. Contrast Deconstruction Fic, although they can and often do overlap in the case of deconstructing something the author dislikes and replacing it with something the author does like. Accusation Fic, Revenge Fic and Hate Fic can overlap as well, depending on how much the writer feels the need to "punish" the characters for what happened in the original story. Not to be confused with a fixup, which is a novel composed of older and/or unpublished short pieces of fiction, often tied together with some sort of Framing Device. For that, see Patchwork Story, or this nice discussion on Wikipedia. |

The Ending of the End - Love and Tolerance Edition addresses several issues the author had and others may have had with the finale. Such as: The Terrible Trio of Tirek, Chrysalis, and Cozy Glow are not only spared their controversial canon fate, but the shreds of a Villainous Friendship they had shown starting to form are expanded on and they're given a redemption arc… even if they refuse to admit it. Grogar is very real and not Discord in disguise, as part of an extremely questionable scheme to give Twilight some "self confidence" by playing around with three very dangerous villains. Mean Twilight is revived to join The Legion of Doom, as the show seemingly hinted by having Queen Chrysalis hold onto her log, but didn't do anything with it. Instead of just being left dead after one episode and never even getting to meet the heroes properly. The rest of the Mean Six are revived and reunited with her in the epilogue. Cozy Glow is not able to use the Bewitching Bell to become an alicorn and decides not to give herself any other kind of flashy power up that allows her to rely on brute force. Instead granting herself abilities that complement her natural talents and role on the team. And continuing to set herself apart from her powerhouse cohorts. King Sombra is revived once again and his comic book origin story that the show decided to ignore is acknowledged. The Tree of Harmony/"Treelight" is given much more focus and called out for it's more questionable moments. Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash all become alicorns like Twilight after the final battle, allowing them to rule beside her indefinitely. Princess Celestia and Luna decide to hold off on their retirement after the events of the finale, to help Twilight and Equestria's five new alicorn princesses settle in. |

Puella Magi Madoka Magica's concept is that the life of a Magical Girl is very tragic and that it doesn't have a truly happy ending. As you can probably guess from that concept, a lot of fanfics are dedicated to saving someone from death. It doesn't quite help that one of the main characters is looping time over and over to save the titular character for an unknown amount of times, which simply added fuel to the fire. Magica Madoka Veneficus Puella arguably plays with this trope. While the characters are now capable of finally getting their happy endings, the fights that take place cause collateral damage on par with your average war. Add to the fact that a potential class X-4 apocalypse is heading over the horizon and you have yourselves a problem. A Hero, another Puella Magi Madoka Magica fanfic, is a subversion. On one hand, it adds Dalek Sec to help fix things. On the other, it also adds the rest of the Whoniverse to screw things up even more. As Time Diverges: The Mitakihara Case adds a quirky yet genius detective and equally smart grad student to the mix, and while L catches onto what the antagonist is planning right away, but this soon gets subverted as the events still play out, and soon get worse as Light face heel turns and kills Kyouko. It gets double subverted though, as L goes back in time and fixes much of the problems that belied their first loop... Though it gets triple subverted when L decides to kill Kyousuke and have Sayaka become a Witch... Would you believe this is quadruple subverted, since this was L's plan to invoke the Decon-Recon Switch? "I've Managed To Save Mami-san" is a remarkably straightforward fancomic in which the timely application of a Dragonslayer to the face manages to, well, save Mami. The author continued in the same vein with Guts Big Damn Hero-ing Sayaka, Kyoko and (in an Attack on Titan crossover) Mina. After the end of the series, roughly seven hundred thousand stories or doujins were written where Homura and Madoka find a way to meet again. Bringing Sayaka with her is optional. After the release of Puella Magi Madoka Magica The Movie: Rebellion, viewers have observed that the ending almost seems to deconstruct these types of fics. On the other hand, given the more contentous nature of the movie's ending, more Fix Fics have been created to remedy the film's ending. The fact that it ends in a Sequel Hook of sorts and there is no sequel to be seen on the horizon only increases the efforts. An example of an interesting take in the Rebellion Fix Fic is The Persistence of Memory, as it restores the Law of Cycles world, while managing to get Homura's cooperation so that the Law of Cycles members can keep in touch with their loved ones- and take care of the incubators (in comparison to most fix fics of rebellion, that simply bring the Law Of Cycles system back). Magical Girls Unite Retransformed is meant to be one towards not just Puella Magi Madoka Magica, but all other Magical Girl Genre Deconstruction works as well, with heroes from other works coming to ensure the characters' escape their fate. One chapter, for example, sees the infamous Downer Ending of Magical Princess Minky Momo outright averted, with her being saved from her fate of being run over and her quest completed. |

Gate: The fanfic Manifest Destiny, whose author has set about to better portray issues such as local economics, culture, global politics, and most noticeably psychology, issues that the original either glossed over, oversimplified, or ignored. The result is much Darker and Edgier story, more along the vein of Heart of Darkness than its source. | |

Abraxas by Hrodvitnon started out as one to the MonsterVerse, particularly Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019) after the movie saw Sally Hawkins' character Vivienne Graham unceremoniously killed off after having gotten very limited characterization across her two movie appearances. The fic sees Vivienne resurrected and transformed by San's severed head into half of a Two Beings, One Body Titan, and it does more to flesh out Vivienne's character whilst giving her a concrete, story-long character arc. | |

The Star Trek Online Foundry mission "Divide ut Regnes", for the infamous official storyline mission "Divide et Impera". It uses a Stable Time Loop to explain why Admiral Zelle is still standing motionless in Admiral T'nae's office after the Undine impersonating her uses you to get her into a Romulan medical facility to Kill and Replace its commander, and Mind Control to explain the more-blatant-than-usual Railroading. It also does some Arc Welding, incorporating little details from other missions' briefings to make the rather disjointed storyline hang together better.e.g.Why is the Romulan fleet out of position? They're responding to your Time Traveling starship hitting one of their facilities. | |

Several Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony fanfics, such as I'd Trade My Life For Yours and Three-Point Shot often have Kaede Akamatsu survive the first chapter; the former does this by having Shuichi be convicted of the murder in her stead and the latter does this by having Shuichi discover that the shot put couldn't have hit Rantaro, enabling him to expose the true murderer. | |

Beyond the Valley of the Dolls: This schlocky fever dream written by Roger Ebert has inspired a few fanfics which prevent the massacre committed by Z-Man at the end of the film. Titania and Oberon (link here) is one such example, as Z-Man's friendships with Roxanne and the Carrie Nations, plus a developing romance with Harris, lead to him shaking off his darker impulses. | |

The Infinite Loops can sometimes contain examples of Loopers going through their original storyline, or that of popular fanfics, and doing things "right" this time around. Then again, the Loopers are equally likely to just screw everything over for the lulz, or to engage in oddball shenanigans also for the lulz. Notably, characters getting too obsessed with "fixing" things can sometimes cause problems and cause a Looper to break under the strain, especially if they come to believe that "fixing" the events of their baseline will get them out of the Loops. | |

Bleach: A Protector's Pride is basically all the characters being a lot smarter and pragmatic than their canon counterparts. For example, Ichigo, Orihime, and Chad devoting more time to actually mastering their powers, Orihime being willing to use her powers offensively in battle, and Ikkaku using his Bankai during the Fake Karakura Town arc. Downfall is an example of a fic that starts out much lighter than canon — several characters that were dead in backstories are alive — only to start killing off several others in heartrending ways. Also, Unohana makes a great villain. Somehow, it still manages to feel like a fix fic. |

Telling Lies? No, Mama: Besides being a deconstruction of the usual Salt Fics, it also fixes many grievances most fans had with canon. Alya, Nino and Adrien don't hesitate to jump in Marinette's defense when Lila makes it appear that she's being a bully, and they're her staunchest allies through the whole story. Ms. Bustier isn't some gullible idiot: she believes Lila's claims of disabilities because Lila gave her forged medical notes, complete with her mother's signature. Chloé is given Character Development and a proper redemption arc that actually sticks instead of being a victim of Aesop Amnesia. She also tries to build a proper friendship with Sabrina, instead of treating her like a disposable stooge. |

League of Extraordinary Gentlemen: Tempest Rewrite is, well, a rewrite of the final volume of League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. While the original comic was focused on delivering an elongated Take That! to everything the author hates while arguing that modern storytelling is a cultural wasteland, this story dismantles those very arguments by reportraying characters who got demonized as their original heroic selves, while bringing in many modern fictional characters (and public domain ones that got overlooked in earlier volumes) and giving them the same respect as literary classics. | |

Subverted in The Accidental Animagus, which seemingly presses all the buttons for fixing all of Harry's problems. He's adopted by a loving family, introduced to the political situation before he goes to Hogwarts, learns wandless magic, keeps a level head in response to Draco's taunts, identifies the hidden message in Professor Snape's first class and defuses the conflict with him, gets Sirius exonerated...everything appears to be headed for smooth sailing, until it turns out that the villains have been level-grinding in the background, and everything falls apart. | |

Taaroko's Buffy the Vampire Slayer does this to the Angel episode "Shells"; when Angel called Giles in an effort to get in contact with Willow to save Fred from Illyria's possession, Giles simply tells him that Willow can't be contacted because she's in the Himalayas on an astral plane, and flat-out refuses to help him at all after confirming Angel is still working for Wolfram & Hart. Here, Willow was captured by the agents of the latest threat at the same time Fred was infected by Illyria's essence, and was simply unable to help Angel save her either way. | |

My Brave Pony: Starfleet Magic is a fix fic which also happens to be a Hate Fic, with the author trying to change the entire universe and its concepts to fit his ideas (for example, he absolutely hates the idea of friendship (the main concept of the FiM universe), and thinks that the power of belief is the strongest there is (whatever he means by that)). It's not a Troll Fic. The largely negative reception to the fic resulted in several Fix Fics of it (including Fall of Starfleet, Rebirth of Friendship and My Brave Pony: Starfleet Nemesis), which revolve around deconstructing and "un-fixing" the changes made by Starfleet Magic while also fleshing out the original characters it introduced (who, to be frank, have very little in the way of actual character). | |

Less Bittersweet explicitly aims to make the ending of Doki Doki Literature Club! more happy by continuing the story. However, if you go by Word of God, then he thinks the original Downer Ending was perfect, and "fixing" it is actually a bad idea, so it's Inverted Trope. (But he thinks it can otherwise be a good story, so that's why it's worth writing.) | |

Another specific example is Shinji and Warhammer40k, where the changes begin with Shinji discovering a case with some Warhammer 40,000 sourcebooks and miniatures early in his childhood. The butterfly effect takes hold with the result that every change following flows mostly logically from the previous changes, until you're halfway through the whole thing and Shinji is holding a nuclear explosion in his hand, and you wonder how the heck you ended up there. | |

Thomas & Friends: There have been some alternate ending fanfics of the episode, "Duck and the Slip Coaches", where Emily gets a proper shed to sleep in when Duck is staying at Tidmouth Sheds for the night. One in particular has Emily sleep in James' spot at Tidmouth Sheds, giving the latter Laser-Guided Karma for stealing Duck's idea about using Slip Coaches and bumping the Slip Coaches. Fanfiction author Hufflepuff Batboy (formerly ThomasAngryBirds and Shimmering Sparkles) has a whole Thomas & Friends fanfiction series known as Railway Series Evolution. Half of the stories are devoted to re-writing episodes from the later seasons. Examples of fixes include putting a different character in the main role (i.e. Henry instead of Edward in the infamous "Edward Strikes Out"), making accidents the faults of humans instead of engines (i.e. having a haughty driver cause Thomas to go off prematurely in "Wonky Whistle" instead of Thomas doing it on his own volition), and even re-writing Thomas and the Magic Railroad with a better origin for Lady, relegating Diesel 10 to a secondary antagonist role, introducing a new, nastier villain, replacing Splatter and Dodge with pre-existing characters 'Arry and Bert, and replacing Mr. Conductor with a human character named Mr. Brenner (a tribute to then-current series head writer, Andrew Brenner). He also gave pre-existing HiT-era characters fleshed-out origins, such as having Emily be #4 on the Sodor and Mainland Railway (one of the North Western Railway's constituents), making Paxton and Sidney replicas, making Dennis and Neville experimental Bulleid designs tested on Sodor, and having Belle be one of the eight engines who subbed for the original eight in "The Eight Railway Engines". Restoring Lost Honour serves as one for Sodor's Legend of the Lost Treasure, particularly the Fat Controller's treatment of Thomas. After Thomas is unfairly punished for the dynamite incident, and Donald and Douglas start spreading the news of the Fat Controller's unfairness, Emily gives him one hell of a "Reason You Suck" Speech (the author's M.O. is Thomas/Emily fics that somehow features them kissing and holding each other, which is physically impossible for them; it has been theorized that they either have the ability to hyper-extend their faces à la Shed 17, have the unwritten ability to turn into humans, or use the exaggerated movements introduced in Journey Beyond Sodor; the author has invoked the MST3K Mantra on several occasions). Not only does Emily manage to change the Fat Controller's appraisal of the Thomas situation, she also leaves him a quivering wreck. The cherry on top, though, is a scene made specifically for the fanfic, in which Thomas is about to leave Sodor, only for the Fat Controller to give a very heartfelt apology, and Gordon gets some Laser-Guided Karma for his teasing of Thomas that lead to the incident with the coaches in the form of being made to watch scrap get melted down. After this, the fic follows the special closely, with the Fat Controller being more supportive of Thomas, though otherwise, the climatic chase with Sailor John is unchanged. In "Stepney Gets Lost", Arry and Bert faced no consequences for attempting to scrap Stepney. This picture on Deviantart, however, depicts them being towed away to the mainland to be scrapped as punishment for their murder attempt. |

Miraculous Ladybug: The LadyBugOut Alternate Universe and most of the other works of its creator, Miraculous Content. The author claims that the show keeps blaming the main character Marinette for things she has no control over, going so far as to have other characters behave like terrible people with no repercussions so she can get blamed for the fallout. So, most of their works follow the formula of having a character behave in a terrible way exactly like they do in canon, but then being called out or suffering the consequences. Meanwhile Marinette doesn't get unfairly blamed, instead usually ending up in a romantic moment with Luka as that is the author's favourite ship. In LadyBugOut itself this comes after the episode "Oblivio", when Alya posts a photograph of Ladybug and Chat kissing while they are under the effects of the titular villain's amnesia ability to her Ladyblog. While canon treats this as just another Ship Tease moment between the heroes, in LBO this leads to a major fallout between Marinette and Alya, as well as between Ladybug and Chat. Alya, Adrien, and Chloé, all characters the author views as mistreating Marinette without comeuppance in canon, permanently lose their status as heroes, with their powers going to characters the author is sympathetic towards (Juleka, Luka and Kagami respectively). Telling Lies? No, Mama: Besides being a deconstruction of the usual Salt Fics, it also fixes many grievances most fans had with canon. Alya, Nino and Adrien don't hesitate to jump in Marinette's defense when Lila makes it appear that she's being a bully, and they're her staunchest allies through the whole story. Ms. Bustier isn't some gullible idiot: she believes Lila's claims of disabilities because Lila gave her forged medical notes, complete with her mother's signature. Chloé is given Character Development and a proper redemption arc that actually sticks instead of being a victim of Aesop Amnesia. She also tries to build a proper friendship with Sabrina, instead of treating her like a disposable stooge. |

iCarly: Changing the end of several episodes: iKiss: Carly and Freddie kiss and not Sam and Freddie. Or Sam doesn't actually like the kiss (in Carly/Sam works this usually leads to Sam realizing lesbian). iSpeed Date: Freddie notices Sam and runs after her, not the actual ending with Carly and Freddie dancing after not noticing Sam. iOMG: Adding a post-script which solves the cliff-hanger. Freddie gently letting down Sam then going after Carly or having Carly come after him, the same but with Carly going after Sam, or just having Freddie respond to Sam positively. |

Son of the Sannin at first glance comes across as a very traditional Naruto Fix Fic, but it goes also into meta-level. The premise starts with Jiraiya and Tsunade raising Naruto together as he grows up, and sticking around Konoha during those years. The introductory arc shows them preventing canon tragedies such as the sacrifice of Hizashi Hyuga or Gaara turning into an Ax-Crazy murderer. However, other interesting What If? scenarios are explored, such as the aftermath of the Uchiha Clan pulling off their coup, resulting in Konoha losing a lot of its military manpower, including clan leaders Hiashi Hyuga and Inoichi Yamanaka, and Orochimaru taking advantage of the ensuing chaos to snatch the Sharingan for himself. As a result of this, Konoha is forced to up the standards in the Ninja Academy to ensure that the graduates are better prepared to handle future threats. The story goes out of its way to fix many of the plot holes left in canon while still staying true to the spirit of the series. | |

The Phantom Menace: Obi-Wan takes a much more active role in the plot as the protagonist, he and Padmé have a Will They or Won't They? dynamic reminiscent of Han and Leia, and he's something of a hothead who gets tired of peacetime and wants to prove himself as a warrior. Anakin is aged up to a young adult, he's a first-time podracer who gets pushed into a race by Qui-Gon as a ploy to test his latent Force powers, and he doesn't take part in the final battle. Jar-Jar isn't in the movie, Yoda is only mentioned, and Darth Maul survives to the end. | |

The Star Trek: Picard fic "He Lives In You" (featuring Soji visiting Data in the simulation before he is deleted) addresses both the question of Data having "aged" in the simulation and why they didn't download him into a new body; the physical signs of aging were actually a visual representation of Data's code having degraded after he was transferred into the simulation, and it is just too degraded to survive a transfer into a new body from an already antiquated data storage system. | |

Lyrical Nanoha has an odd example in Game Theory. The basic premise is that Precia, while still cold and manipulative, is not openly cruel to Fate. While this does not necessarily sound like a Fix Fic, it quickly becomes clear that part of the story's agenda is to fill in some rather large holes in the canon setting—it provides explanations for (and dwells upon the consequences of) concepts the original show basically Hand Waved, such as familiars, Dimensional Space, and Yuuno's shapeshifting, as well as elaborating on just what the heck was going on with Al-Hazard (called Alhazred in the story) and Ancient Belka. The end result is something quite a bit more complex and sci-fi-feeling than the source material. Of The Stars by the same author does something similar with Sailor Moon, except it aims for Science Fantasy rather than Magitek and is a straight up remake rather than a divergence. |

The finale of Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans was extremely controversial among the fanbase, so naturally there exists some fanworks that rewrite the finale in some way. Until the End of Line fixes Mikazuki's death by having Julietta pull a Heel–Face Turn to save him, allowing him to return to his family and raise their child. Our Family Changed Shape is a one-shot that, according to a comment by the writer, takes place in a timeline where Shino's all-or-nothing shot succeeded in killing Rustal, presumably preventing Gjallarhorn's canonical victory. As a result, Mikazuki and Orga survive (albeit the latter is confined to a wheelchair) and the fic shows them years later having fun with their new family, Kudelia, Atra, and Mikazuki's son Akatsuki, and joyfully learning Kudelia is pregnant as well. |

The Lizzie Bennet Diaries qualifies toward the end, if only because Values Dissonance necessitated it. In the original Pride and Prejudice, Lydia marrying George Wickham was considered the best possible outcome for the character, just because society at the time would have considered her "tainted" and totally unable to marry anyone else. The Setting Update gives her another option: just dump George and move on, which is exactly what she does. Also, Bing isn't quite so Easily Forgiven for dumping Jane just because his friend told him to. | |

Rapunzel starts up an even more epic, rousing rendition of "When You Wish Upon a Star" on her guitar, and Cinderella sings the opening lines, before handing over to Belle and the Beast's duet. This new rendition steadily gains momentum as more and more characters join in, and others step into fix Goofy's earlier mistake, and it ultimately becomes an even grander and more epic finale than that of the existing OUAS, with everyone triumphantly singing the final verse as a unified ensemble. The finale even involves Cinderella and the Prince, Rapunzel and Eugene, and Aladdin and Jasmine singing the opening lines to the choruses of their own signature tunes, before everyone proudly sings the line "Your dreams come true!", as Tinker Bell finally uses her wand to create the photo. The new photo even includes Moana's father, Chief Tui, standing proudly alongside her and Cinderella, Yo-Yo Flamingo and the Spring Sprite from Fantasia 2000, and even the spirit of Mufasa watching proudly from the roof of the studio building. | |

Gaige's ECHO Logs, a Borderlands 2 Script Fic, is a downplayed example. It hews extremely closely to canon, but still makes an effort to smooth out a few of the plotholes in the original. The most obvious would be the question of why, if the Vault Hunters all had their action skills in the opening cinematic, they had to level up and learn them again (their ECHO devices were destroyed, and they had to get new ones). The author later did a companion story which explains why Krieg wasn't present in the story until the events of the Tiny Tina DLC (which confirms that all six Vault Hunters are together in a group). | |

The oneshot a quest in three acts explains that Kumiko is only dating Shuichi due to internalized homophobia. Even though she isn't into men, she feels obligated to date Shuichi and treat him as her Beard because she feels that's what she "should" be doing. After her friends call her out on forcing herself into a onesided relationship, Kumiko eventually dumps Shuichi. | |

RWBY: The show has a very divided invokedBroken Base, with one of the most widespread criticisms from the negative side being that the franchise's world is brimming with potential that was wasted, untapped or misused throughout the canon storyline — as a result, RWBY fix fics of considerable length abound. Youtuber adel aka has a series of videos where he completely rewrites characters arcs in order to fix them of any issues he sees with them. There's also no romance because it's felt that the romantic plots drag down the series. However, with the exposure of his mysogynisy and transphobia, as well as the general progress of RWBY rewrites, adel's version has become discredited nowadays. Breaking The Chains fixes the Blake vs Adam scene in Volume 6 so that it involves Weiss instead of Yang. This is a "fix" because the writer felt that it fit Blake, Weiss, and Adam's arcs better that way and that it was a missed opportunity that Weiss never met Adam considering his SDC brand. Can One Change Fix All of RWBY?: The video and its content were conceptualised as Calxiyn's attempt to create a fix-fic that remedies as many of the widely-held criticisms against RWBY as possible, but does so by only altering one thing which causes a butterfly effect on the rest of the timeline, instead of actively altering multiple things as other fix-fic videos like Fixing RWBY and I Rewrote RWBY Volume 8 have done. Fixing RWBY is a web series where one man describes how he'd rewrite the show from Volume 1 up in order to improve upon it. The video series RWBY Alternate is an attempt at revamping the series from the ground up. Unicorn of War-Thomas Vaccaro made a two-part Youtube video series called I Rewrote RWBY Volume 8, which made changes that fixed the issues many fans had with Volume 8. |

The whole point of The 13th Ghost of Scooby-Doo is that it serves as an alternate ending to The 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo for fans who weren't happy with the changes made in the direct-to-video film Scooby-Doo! and the Curse of the 13th Ghost.

Flashpoint 2: Advent Solaris is essentially a 2-in-1 fix fic of both Justice League Dark: Apokolips War and Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) with the first half being dedicated to a retelling of the latter and the second half being focused on the former. Apokolips War is the primary one being "fixed" though, via use of a Time Travel induced Cosmic Retcon to full-on undo the events of the film prior to the invasion of Apokolips, putting everyone back to where they were prior to all of those events. The fic also ignores Jason Todd being Adapted Out (and Word of God saying the Robin mantle went from Dick directly to Damian) and the Word of God that the first Kid Flash was in fact Barry by depicting Jason (as his usual role of a former Robin turned Red Hood) and Wally as the first Kid Flash. | |

Les Misérables: As a story where almost every sympathetic named character dies by the end, has plenty of these. One common Fandom-Specific Plot of Les Mis fix-fics is the genre known as "Post-Seine", where the canon divergence is that Javert's suicide attempt, instead of succeeding as in canon, fails by Valjean's intervention; an example of this genre is A Reflection of Starlight. | |

Dragon Ball, being such a big franchise, has entire genres of fix fic, and it's all too easy since the series has a canonical Reset Button. Sadala Chronicles: The Saiyan and the Devil's Fruit provides a few changes to the Champa saga in the epilogue. As the protagonist, Cabba receives buildup for his transformation as a Super Saiyan, with him being pure of heart; Universe 6 Saiyans are written to be flawed but not evil, just to answer why nobody transformed in a Super Saiyan before if they are all heroes; Frost is evil like in the source material but sees himself as necessary for the universe to function; and Piccolo replaces Goku as the first fighter in the tournament, with the author stating his disgust at Goku's redundancy in this arc. A Second Chance is one of several Revenge Fics that don't like Bulma or Chi-Chi, usually involving them being demonized and giving someone else an excuse to kill them so they can end up with invokedRelationship Sue. It's easy to do with Vegeta, especially given how long his Heel–Face Turn took. It's harder with someone like Goku or Yamcha. |

Harry Potter: Subverted in The Accidental Animagus, which seemingly presses all the buttons for fixing all of Harry's problems. He's adopted by a loving family, introduced to the political situation before he goes to Hogwarts, learns wandless magic, keeps a level head in response to Draco's taunts, identifies the hidden message in Professor Snape's first class and defuses the conflict with him, gets Sirius exonerated...everything appears to be headed for smooth sailing, until it turns out that the villains have been level-grinding in the background, and everything falls apart. Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality turns Harry into the ultimate critical thinker and gleefully has him point out everything that's wrong with how magic works and the Wizarding world. However, it also gives everyone else a step up in intelligence (even Crabbe and Goyle). It even has an explanation for that, "fixing" the way magic works so that power comes entirely from intelligence; therefore, the powerful adults are all either The Chessmaster or a Reasonable Authority Figure. Sure, they do commit some seeming acts of stupidity like in the source material, but now it's either designed to look stupid to fool people or totally justified in the context of the character's new motivations. The Pstibbons story The Writer depicts Hermione travelling to "our" world, only to find that Ginny has beaten her here — and assumed the alias "J. K. Rowling" and written the Harry Potter series. The fic posits that Ginny's account of things was self-serving and goes on to tell us what "really happened", in the process throwing out the last two books entirely. My Immortal never made much sense to begin with, which may be why it has a "fix chapter within a fix fic". It's written by an unknown "hacker" who breaks into the author's account, kills off Ebony, and returns everything to how it was in canon — with one notable exception: |

The classic 1950's short story The Cold Equations (immortalized as a Trope Namer) has inspired more than one Fix Fic – one recent example is "The Cold Solution" by Don Sakers, which provides a razor-sharp solution to getting rid of the necessary mass. | |

Many fans of For Better or for Worse had some bitter feelings about the strip's last few years, and several have come up with ways to rationalize them: Foob's Paradise is a fix comic that portrays the final canonical plotline about Liz's wedding as the delirious fantasy of a broken Elly Patterson. It also shows what "really" happened, mostly from Liz's perspective. Foobar is a fix comic that explains the "new-runs" with magic; Elly, in a desperate attempt to fix everything she thinks is wrong with her life, managed to transport the other characters to the past to inhabit their 1981 bodies. Characters born after 1979 are out of luck, and they're left in a world without the adults. Both factions can communicate through April's Time Travel ability and are trying to resist. Once the main strip transitioned to straight reprints, Foobar had the characters succeed and allow Elly to send them back to the future. Elly herself, at this point divorced for six months, is left more or less isolated and has learned precisely nothing except that she was destined to be a housewife. Public discussion of the time warp eventually leaves her trapped in her own body, endlessly replaying the past. The New Retcons is the effort of a group of bloggers to write unofficial continuations of the strip. The final development is Elly Patterson's death as the result of a bungled attempt to murder John by a third party; the logic behind that is that the strip is going into straight reprints because Elly is dead and we're seeing her life flash before our eyes. One of those bloggers went on to write The Unauthorized Liography of the Patterson Family, whose ending is very much a fix fic, in which Michael realizes he's become Elly, seeks therapy, and becomes a Cool Old Guy; Liz realizes she made a mistake marrying Anthony, divorces him (with Therese, of all people acting as her attorney), and marries Warren; April reconciles with her siblings; and John and Elly... die within minutes of each other from bad eating habits. Hey, for the fans, that was an improvement. |

Legacy of the Sith is a fanfic series that replaces the last two books of the New Jedi Order and continues on afterwards, with the premise being that Anakin Solo was not killed by the Yuuzhan Vong but rather captured and brainwashed, and has just managed to escape. It wraps up the NJO in a manner largely reminiscent of the canon (though with different characters filling different specific roles) and then goes in a wildly divergent course. It's awesome. | |

An Empire of Ice and Fire is an AU for Game of Thrones in which Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen get together a lot earlier than in canon and end up becoming Emperor and Empress of the Seven Kingdoms. Additionally, later on in the fic, the author's goal extends towards fixing a lot of the problems with Season Seven and especially Season Eight- all Daenerys' dragons live to the end of the book, along with a lot more heroic characters, the Night's King doesn't end up being an Anti-Climax Boss, Bran Stark actually gets to do something with his Three-Eyed Raven powers, and Daenerys never undergoes a forced Face–Heel Turn. | |

Any Neon Genesis Evangelion fanfic that affects the overall plot will fix something horrible that happened to the characters. Over half of them also involve Shinji and Asuka's relationship. A Crown of Stars tries to fix the Canon and two fanfics, "A Throne of Bayonets" and "The Way Out Is Through" to give Shinji and Asuka and the rest of the cast a happier ending. After the events of "A Throne Of Bayonets", Shinji and Asuka are physically and emotionally burned and wrecked, but then a stranger shows up and makes an offer... Advice and Trust fixes Shinji and Asuka's relationship, giving both teenagers the skill to have a civil conversation, and injecting a generous dose of waffiness. Ghosts of Evangelion tries to fix the psychological damage done to the main characters and their relationship. In Last Child of Krypton, Shinji gets Kryptonian powers and an early lesson on power and responsibility. As a result of it, he tries to use his powers to help people. When he is summoned to Tokyo-3, he is still shy and soft-spoken, but he is more emotionally stable and more compassionate than his canon counterpart, he is committed to help and protect others, and he is powerful enough to fight anything thrown at him. Another specific example is Shinji and Warhammer40k, where the changes begin with Shinji discovering a case with some Warhammer 40,000 sourcebooks and miniatures early in his childhood. The butterfly effect takes hold with the result that every change following flows mostly logically from the previous changes, until you're halfway through the whole thing and Shinji is holding a nuclear explosion in his hand, and you wonder how the heck you ended up there. Thousand Shinji has Shiji meeting and training under a Thousand Sons Chaos Sorcerer as a child. The story fixes a few things, only to later come back and break them in new and interesting (and often horrifying) ways. Children of an Elder God fixes some little things (Shinji is less meek, Asuka's childhood is less horrid...) before sending everyone and everything straight to Hell. Nobody Dies keeps Yui Ikari and Kyoko Sohryu alive through the series, which in turn manages to make Shinji reasonably well adjusted, turns Asuka into the woobie, and turns Rei into...Rei. Mobile Fighter Evangelion has succesfully turned the original series into a complete Reconstruction of what it deconstructed. So far we have Landshark killing Shinji, Mad Scientist!Ritsuko, Gundams piloted by Pen-Pen, and a Grappling Hook!Gendo. It's as awesome as it sounds. Neon Genesis Evangelion: Genocide fixes Shinji and Asuka's post-war relationship, among other things. Once More With Feeling (Crazy-88) consists in Shinji going back to the past and trying to fix the monumental mess that the original timeline was. Superwomen of Eva 2: Lone Heir of Krypton gives Asuka Supergirl's powers. As a result, Asuka becomes a super-heroine, learns her existence is not worthless without Eva, evolves into a better person and has a real chance to avert the end of the world. In The Second Try, Shinji and Asuka manage to get over their worst issues, get together and go back to the past to save the world. |

In Step Right In and Start Again, because of Starlight's tampering with the time spell in the original episode, she has trapped herself in a permanent time loop where every day she reappears in Twilight's castle with no memory of the previous day, awaiting her punishment from Twilight and the Mane Six. It got a fix fic in the form of Starting Over Again, where Twilight creates a magic crown for Starlight to wear that stores and retains her memories as she goes through each time loop. When she realizes that she is now immortal and will outlive every living thing in existence, Starlight devises a potion of eternal youth and gives it to her friends and the rest of Equestria to use. Everypony becomes an immortal alicorn, the races of Equestria explore and colonize the galaxy, and Starlight lives to the end of the universe with her friends, where her time loop is finally broken and she transforms into an alicorn like everyone else. The story ends with a new universe forming, with every character we know and love being present to watch it. | |

Total Drama: Cast Swap: Due to the Pahkitew Island cast debuting in Revenge of the Island and vice versa, many plots go much better than in canon (especially during the All-Stars season). Dave and Sky's failed relationship ends more bittersweetly, Sugar and Scarlett's villain statuses are better executed, Sammy's Character Development is stronger, Feral Ezekiel is restored to his human self, Gwen and Courtney make up for good, Gwen breaks up with Duncan on amicable terms, etc. Courtney's Crusade for Redemption: Courtney's actions are set to correct all the things that went wrong with her and other characters in the canon season. Total Drama All-Stars Rewrite is a fanfic that rewrites the events of All-Stars, fixing many of the issues that people had with the season (such as the numerous continuity errors or the infamous reset button) as well as including characters that fans felt the canon series missed out on an opportunity to have and giving the first two generations of contestants a proper farewell in the post-season special. The Total Drama Comeback Series, an alternate version of Total Drama's second season, wasn't intended as a fix fic at first, as it was written before Action started airing... but due to said season's Seasonal Rot invoked, many started to see it that way. The Comeback series author, The Kobold Necromancer, later started a purposeful fix fic for Season Three called TDWT Reducks Redux, a season he despises primarily for what it did to Ezekiel, his favourite character. Other than the main fix of having Ezekiel actually participate in the season instead of getting booted first again and then turning into a monster, Kobold also addresses other issues he had with the season, such as Team Victory's treatment (especially Harold and Bridgette, two other favorites of his) and the character of Alejandro (who is one of his most despised characters). Candy for Your Thoughts? is an alternate version of the second half of World Tour, which mostly addresses the infamous Courtney/Duncan/Gwen love triangle, but also fixes other things the author had major problems with, such as Alejandro's Invincible Villain qualities, Ezekiel's treatment, and the Gainax Sudden Downer Ending. While not a direct Fix Fic (more of an Alternate Universe Fic), A Codette World Tour "fixes" many of the controversial or unpopular elements of World Tour due to the author's hatred for the canon season. These fixes include the treatment of Team Victory and many of its members (especially Ezekiel, Bridgette, and DJ), the characters of Alejandro and Sierra (who are both disliked by the author), the Courtney/Duncan/Gwen Love Triangle, and the finale itself. Total Drama Do Over is mostly an Alternate Universe Fic, but as early as the first season, the author aimed to fix elements of the canon he disliked, such as making Zoey's "indie chick" persona more prominent rather than an Informed Attribute and reworking the Courtney/Duncan/Gwen Love Triangle to make Courtney more unambiguously sympathetic (and pairing Gwen off with someone else). All Stars Do Over is the most explicit case; Mal is the antagonist in this series just like in canon, but due to how much the author hated the canon season and its take on Mal, he's given a more threatening role and a more fleshed-out motivation. There's several moments across all seasons that are direct potshots to disliked elements of canon, such as one scene in World Tour Do Over where Courtney drinks a glass of orange juice and makes a point that she has no complaints (one gag in the canon All Stars had Courtney complain about her orange juice). Twinning With a Twist The author has stated that they were unsatisfied with how Sammy's character development was portrayed in canon, and is writing the story to give her one that is more healthy and positive. |

The ending of The Karma of Lies had mixed reactions thanks to Lila being a Karma Houdini while Adrien suffered the consequences for her crimes in addition to his own misdeeds, which some felt was too harsh even for the unrepentant and blatantly self-centered characterization he displayed in the fic. A few Recursive Fanfictions address these points: Karma's a Bitch likewise averts Lila's Karma Houdini status and Chloé's redemption arc, and is overall more positive toward most of the main cast for those who disliked the high salt levels in the original. It also averts and deconstructs the popular Saltinette characterization Karma's Marinette had shades of in favor of addressing her canonical issues with jealousy and impulsiveness, taking a more balanced look at the situation and exploring why various characters act the way they do. What Goes Around Comes Around (Miraculous Ladybug) follows many plot beats from Karma, but tones down Adrien's suffering at the end, showing that while he's screwed up badly and is paying for it, he's also learned some valuable lessons and will have a chance to start over with his relatives in London. Lila and Chloé also get hit with Adaptational Karma, fixing the unsatisfying nature of the former being a Karma Houdini and of the latter making a Heel–Face Turn for those who thought she'd already crossed the Moral Event Horizon in canon and shouldn't have had a redemption arc. |

After the release of Puella Magi Madoka Magica The Movie: Rebellion, viewers have observed that the ending almost seems to deconstruct these types of fics. On the other hand, given the more contentous nature of the movie's ending, more Fix Fics have been created to remedy the film's ending. The fact that it ends in a Sequel Hook of sorts and there is no sequel to be seen on the horizon only increases the efforts. An example of an interesting take in the Rebellion Fix Fic is The Persistence of Memory, as it restores the Law of Cycles world, while managing to get Homura's cooperation so that the Law of Cycles members can keep in touch with their loved ones- and take care of the incubators (in comparison to most fix fics of rebellion, that simply bring the Law Of Cycles system back). | |

There's one fic out there for Persona 3 that does this - but from a gameplay standpoint, it actually makes sense. After finishing the game, a New Game Plus option appears, allowing you to keep your level, Persona Compendium, all items and social stats - but forcing the player to stay on the rails when all they really want to do is change what they know is going to happen. Of course, opinions vary, but all in all the "Fixed" elements were handled quite well. Shinji is saved, though it is explicitly mentioned that the side effects of his medication mean he will die within a year. Minato lives by holding back Erebus with the combined power of his social links, though he mentions he doesn't know if that will hold back The Fall forever. | |

Originally, in Sonic Adventure 2, Shadow the Hedgehog fell into the Earth's atmosphere and "died" after fighting the Biolizard with Sonic's help. Since then, Eggman resurrected Shadow, who'd develop amnesia, and even went far as to develop Shadow androids to confuse Shadow, and in turn, the player. So, one fanfic author developed two fanfics explaining the alternate ending where Sonic actually saves Shadow from falling into the Earth. That way, Shadow won't be able to whine, complain, and mope about his past, instead vowing to protect Sonic and friends as his new friends, while Eggman doesn't build the Shadow androids at all to confuse Shadow and the player. The first fanfic takes place through Shadow's perspective, while the second takes place through Cream's perspective, to explain Cream the Rabbit's addition to the story. | |

A common sore spot for many players of Undertale is that one character is Doomed by Canon, turning the Golden Ending somewhat bittersweet. The fact that Asriel will turn back into Flowey and lose all memories and emotions of the people who love him at the end of the Pacifist Run has left more than a few people upset. Thus, there are multiple Fix Fics, including A Dreamer Reborn, where the player character goes back to save them. Some fan writers also save the first Fallen Child bringing them back to life with their own body and soul and able to interact with the rest of the cast. This is usually done either for shipping purposes, or to call out people who bash the character. (The reasons for which are too complicated to go over in detail here.) Often the fics won’t even explain how Asriel and Chara were restored to life at all, but it just happened before the first chapter. Though most fanfic writers who want a happy ending will set their Continuation Fics in the True Pacifist timeline, some have tried their best effort at salvaging the events after the Genocide Route, undoing the Soulless Pacifist Ending if at all possible. Of these, the longest and most thought-out is Betrayed,note which also is an example of the “save Asriel and Chara� fics mentioned above which was ironically enough labeled a Crack Fic by its own author in the first chapter’s notes. But don’t be fooled, it takes the subject matter with all the gravity it deserves, and not only does the story avoid Deus ex Machina all the way through, but the heroes aren’t even able to begin to fix things until they go through a whole train of soul-searching and acknowledgment of the fatal flaws that got them into this mess in the first place. It also allows for the possibility that some things really are unfixable in an alternate ending. |

A Crooked Man: The premise of the story is Johann preventing and reverting the disasters and tragedies in the Marvel Universe. Johann's first act in the MU is resurrecting all the inhabitants on Genosha that died in Cassandra Nova's Sentinel attack; resurrecting the X-Men students that were killed in William Stryker's attack during the Decimation; and restoring all mutants of their powers. He also modified some mutants of their uncontrollable powers or disfiguring appearances. Cyclops is able to turn off his optic beams without his glasses. Rogue doesn't completely drain people of their life energies and can touch people again. Less human-like mutants such as Rockslide and Glob Herman can switch back into their human forms. Professor Xavier's spine is healed and can now walk again. Legion is made sane. Johann prevents the events of World War Hulk from happening by defusing the bombs that would have devastate Sakaar and revealing Miek's crimes to Hulk. Johann convinces Ben Urich in releasing the evidences that incriminate Tony Stark in all the illegal activities he undertook to bolster support for the SRA. This lead to the breakdown of the SRA and criminalizing Stark and other affiliates who abused the SRA. Johann resurrects Captain America and MVP. He captures a depowered Red Skull and turning him over to Israel. Averted for Ben Grimm, who refuses to accept Johann's offer to turn him back to his human form due to disliking Johann's role in Reed Richards' arrest. |

Chris Dee's Cat Tales series Fix Fics every piece of bad characterization and Retcon inflicted on Catwoman since the late 80's — the Wangst-filled past as a ghetto prostitute, the string of Squicky non-Bat love interests and the infamous goggle-wearing costume change are cleanly slate-wiped as the machinations of a low-brow tabloid, to which the real Catwoman responds in a... unique... way. The series has evolved into an Alternate Universe Fic with over 50 stories. | |

Cast Swap: Due to the Pahkitew Island cast debuting in Revenge of the Island and vice versa, many plots go much better than in canon (especially during the All-Stars season). Dave and Sky's failed relationship ends more bittersweetly, Sugar and Scarlett's villain statuses are better executed, Sammy's Character Development is stronger, Feral Ezekiel is restored to his human self, Gwen and Courtney make up for good, Gwen breaks up with Duncan on amicable terms, etc. | |

Breaking The Chains fixes the Blake vs Adam scene in Volume 6 so that it involves Weiss instead of Yang. This is a "fix" because the writer felt that it fit Blake, Weiss, and Adam's arcs better that way and that it was a missed opportunity that Weiss never met Adam considering his SDC brand. | |

Marvel Cinematic Universe The Fourth of July is one for Sharon Carter's whole MCU depiction, due to how she was Demoted to Extra and given the Chuck Cunningham Syndrome later on in the franchise (and turn to villainy in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier), giving more build up for her and Steve's relationship. After Avengers: Endgame came out, several of these were written. Some go out of their way to either prevent the deaths of certain characters (particularly Black Widow and Iron Man) or address certain Fridge Logic issues due to the nature of the movie's use of time travel. One specific example is the story Backwards, which takes a critical eye at Steve Rogers' actions during the ending in the movie. |

Belated Media has the three-part series What If the Star Wars Prequels Were Good?, an in-depth reimagining of the Star Wars prequels designed to fix some of their most criticized elements (complete with drawings to show what it might have looked like). In particular, Michael criticizes the Prequel Trilogy's excessive Call Forwards and over-reliance on Original Trilogy characters, and argues that the movies suffered from a general lack of tension because they revolved around a Foregone Conclusion. To remedy that, R2-D2, C-3PO and Chewbacca are nowhere to be seen, Anakin doesn't don the classic black armor, Palpatine doesn't proclaim himself Emperor, and Padmé actually lives until the end. To elaborate: The Phantom Menace: Obi-Wan takes a much more active role in the plot as the protagonist, he and Padmé have a Will They or Won't They? dynamic reminiscent of Han and Leia, and he's something of a hothead who gets tired of peacetime and wants to prove himself as a warrior. Anakin is aged up to a young adult, he's a first-time podracer who gets pushed into a race by Qui-Gon as a ploy to test his latent Force powers, and he doesn't take part in the final battle. Jar-Jar isn't in the movie, Yoda is only mentioned, and Darth Maul survives to the end. Attack of the Clones: Owen Lars is a major supporting character (portrayed as a Badass Normal space pilot in Padmé's employ), Padmé is the Queen of Alderaan instead of the Queen of Naboo, Bail Organa is Padmé's brother, Palpatine is a high-level Senate bureaucrat who heads the Jedi Council, Count Dooku is a sympathetic Well-Intentioned Extremist who rebels against the Republic and the Jedi because he knows that they're controlled by the Sith, Anakin is portrayed as Obi-Wan's more charismatic foil, the plot hints at a romantic rivalry between the two over Padmé's affections, the Clone Wars start with the Sith assassinating leaders on both sides to provoke a conflict, there's no side-plot about Obi-Wan hunting down the secret Clone Army, Obi-Wan gets to have a personal rematch with Darth Maul in an attempt to avenge Qui-Gon (though Maul escapes), and the movie ends with Dooku choosing to die as a martyr as the Clone Army bombs his stronghold. Revenge of the Sith: Anakin and Padmé's secret marriage happens offscreen (making it a surprise when they're revealed to be a couple), we actually see Grievous' kidnapping of Palpatine, Grievous is a truly dangerous warrior (á la Star Wars: Clone Wars), and Darth Maul dies on Grievous' flagship in place of Dooku. At the climax, Obi-Wan's friendship with Anakin collapses when Anakin discovers that Obi-Wan only trained him to fulfill a promise to Qui-Gon, and Anakin gets booted from the Jedi Order for killing Darth Maul, only for Palpatine to appoint him the new leader of the Jedi Council. In the end, there's a full-on battle on Mustafar preceding the climactic duel, where a power-mad Anakin purposely sends most of the Jedi to their deaths by making them serve as cannon fodder. Afterwards, Obi-Wan lies to Padmé and tells her that Anakin died in battle, and Owen personally offers to raise Padmé's child away from the chaos of war. Yoda also never battles Palpatine; he and Obi-Wan simply go into hiding to wait for the right moment to strike back at the Sith-controlled Republic. |

Fics where Harry Potter is taken from the Dursleys and raised by a character from another franchise are fairly popular, with the character from the other franchise often pointing out the obvious flaws in the Wizarding World, Hogwarts' rules/conduct, or decisions made by prominent characters (Dumbledore often gets called out for some of his decisions). These fics also usually end up punishing the Dursleys for their mistreatment of Harry (how extreme this punishment is depends on the writer), and explaining how/why no one ever noticed the tell-tale signs that Harry was being abused. Such fics include Harry Tano and If Wishes Were Ponies. | |

The author ElfCollaborator wrote a series of fics, called the This Is The Part Where... Dies series, based on deconstructing and fixing canonical—or in the first case, fictional—deaths via Insane Troll Logic, Lampshade Hanging and Breaking the Fourth Wall: The first installment is about the tendency of Death Fics to kill Ruby off. Ruby survives due to her protagonist-induced Plot Armor, which Blake lampshades. The second installment focuses on Nia and her death at her and Simon's wedding. She survives by dint of Simon and the rest of team Dai-Gurren, with the inclusion of a resurrected Kamina and Kittan, beating up the Anti-Spiral King who wrote the ending. The third installment focuses on Isara. Isara survives by Cezary lampshading that she in fact, by the game's logic, had three turns to die and reminding everyone that they had The Medic nearby with ragnaid. The fourth focuses on deconstructing Pyrrha's canonical death in RWBY. Pyrrha survives her death in the first part by pulling a Screw This, I'm Out of Here! when she finds she dies while complaining at the writers, and the second one involves her and Nora writing their own Fix Fic about said ending. |

Thanks to the feelings of many gamers towards the ending, Mass Effect 3 is starting to have many fics that are trying to fix this problem. They tend to either throw out the controversial last decision, keep it but allow EDI and the geth to survive the Destroy Ending, or rework much of the story. One well-known example is the webcomic hosted on DeviantArt by user koobismo starring and centered on the eponymous "Marauder Shields" a Memetic and Fanonical Ensemble Dark Horse, that is the final enemy combatant faced in the game, and by extent, the trilogy. Each 'episode' comes with recommended background music to be played while reading, and the creators are in the process of making an Audiobook for each strip with sound effects, licensed music, and voice overs by auditioned fan volunteers. The fanfic Razor's Edge Requiem does this unlike the previous parts Razor's Edge and Razor's Edge Dark Witness that followed Mass Effect 2 and LotSB rather well with a few changes in order to fit the novel structure. These changes include giving the Rachni a larger focus, putting Miranda and Kasumi back on the ship and Shepard fight against indoctrination. The fic Certus follows most of the game's major story beats, but throws in a couple entirely new arcs and significantly reworks the ending. The author's other fics already take some liberties with the plot of the first two games, so it doesn't stand out much next to them. It's a relatively minor note in a Massive Multiplayer Crossover, but Halloween Unspectacular X sees E350 and a number of crossover characters literally crash the party during the game's ending (they need the Crucible to foil a villain, long story) and change the outcome so that Shepard can destroy the Reapers without destroying all synthetic life. |

Karma's a Bitch likewise averts Lila's Karma Houdini status and Chloé's redemption arc, and is overall more positive toward most of the main cast for those who disliked the high salt levels in the original. It also averts and deconstructs the popular Saltinette characterization Karma's Marinette had shades of in favor of addressing her canonical issues with jealousy and impulsiveness, taking a more balanced look at the situation and exploring why various characters act the way they do. | |

The Our Miss Brooks fanfic, "The Reunion Assembly", dismisses the last season of the TV series (where Madison High School is suddenly torn down for a freeway, and Miss Brooks becomes a teacher at an L.A. private school) as All Just a Dream. [1]. This may be a unique case, as the writer used this trope to reconcile Canon Discontinuity. The concurrent radio series and the subsequent movie Grand Finale continued at Madison High as per usual. | |

What Goes Around Comes Around (Miraculous Ladybug) follows many plot beats from Karma, but tones down Adrien's suffering at the end, showing that while he's screwed up badly and is paying for it, he's also learned some valuable lessons and will have a chance to start over with his relatives in London. Lila and Chloé also get hit with Adaptational Karma, fixing the unsatisfying nature of the former being a Karma Houdini and of the latter making a Heel–Face Turn for those who thought she'd already crossed the Moral Event Horizon in canon and shouldn't have had a redemption arc. | |

Glee The Virtual Season Four, from the same fandom, is written as a backlash to season three and takes some elements of the real season four while repairing some of the things it and preceding seasons did. For example, the mass ship sinking of "The Breakup" is averted; the characters still have their problems with separation and loneliness, but deal with it in other ways (some better than others). | |

A classic Star Trek example is an attempt to fix an apparent continuity glitch. In the film The Wrath of Khan, Khan and Chekov recognize each other upon meeting. However, Chekov wasn't present in the one episode in which Khan appeared on the original series, "Space Seed". That's because it was a first season episode, and Chekov didn't join the cast until the second season. The semi-official Fan Wank is that Chekov was indeed on board the Enterprise and met Khan; he just wasn't on the bridge crew yet, so he didn't appear on screen. But this fanfic, which was long distributed in fan 'zines shortly after the film's release, went a bit further and envisioned Khan and Chekov's meeting in detail — they bumped into each other in the bathroom. | |

Cupcakes (Sergeant Sprinkles) has created many, many alternate endings by fans who hated the ending. For good reason. It's popular to explain the entire events of the story as All Just a Dream of Pinkie's or Dashie's, have them be shocked and horrified, then have them comfort each other. The Light in the Darkness is perhaps the most beloved example. | |

Attack of the Clones: Owen Lars is a major supporting character (portrayed as a Badass Normal space pilot in Padmé's employ), Padmé is the Queen of Alderaan instead of the Queen of Naboo, Bail Organa is Padmé's brother, Palpatine is a high-level Senate bureaucrat who heads the Jedi Council, Count Dooku is a sympathetic Well-Intentioned Extremist who rebels against the Republic and the Jedi because he knows that they're controlled by the Sith, Anakin is portrayed as Obi-Wan's more charismatic foil, the plot hints at a romantic rivalry between the two over Padmé's affections, the Clone Wars start with the Sith assassinating leaders on both sides to provoke a conflict, there's no side-plot about Obi-Wan hunting down the secret Clone Army, Obi-Wan gets to have a personal rematch with Darth Maul in an attempt to avenge Qui-Gon (though Maul escapes), and the movie ends with Dooku choosing to die as a martyr as the Clone Army bombs his stronghold. | |

Gold Poisons is a downplayed example, with the author even stating afterwards that not everything is automatically going to be okay now.

After The Thrawn Trilogy came out, and books following that were...less well regarded, fanficcers developed a mini-genre of "Zahn fixes," such as "How Timothy Zahn Could Fix This Mess," versions One and Two.

The Trainer from a Far-Away Land acts as a Fix Fic for Pokémon: The Series, for people frustrated with Ash's Not Allowed to Grow Up status and Flanderization into an Idiot Hero. While most Fix Fic make Ash/Satoshi into a badass uber-genius, this fic maintains Ash/Satoshi's childishness and thoughtlessness but has Satoshi learn from his past experiences. He grew as a person along with growing older with his Aura powers from the eighth movie not being forgotten. Although the above has only four chapters that went on a years long break before updating and leaving the fic's status in the air, fans can still be entertained by three other, extremely well-written, Fix Fics — Ashes of the Past, the A New Chance Series, and Pokémon Reset Bloodlines. All of them make Ash not be an Idiot Hero, but in different ways: the former is a Peggy Sue fic, thus providing a logical explanation for this, and for the Adaptational Badass status of every single character, whereas the latter simply diverges from canon after Pokémon Heroes, by giving Ash a legendary Pokémon in a way that actually makes sense, and uses this to have him mature as a trainer in a believable manner. The latter fic is inspired by Ashes and uses a similar set up for fixing things, though the fic is more focused on targeting smaller issues like Pidgeot and the Counter-Shield than a full rewrite of canon Ash's attempts (as the time jump creates enough of an alternate universe repeating things isn't the easiest thing in the world to do). Rebuild of Pocket Monsters: The Animation is an attempt to make the Pokémon series closer to Takeshi Shudō's vision: a family-aimed (rather than kid-aimed) work that grows with its audience. |

Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality turns Harry into the ultimate critical thinker and gleefully has him point out everything that's wrong with how magic works and the Wizarding world. However, it also gives everyone else a step up in intelligence (even Crabbe and Goyle). It even has an explanation for that, "fixing" the way magic works so that power comes entirely from intelligence; therefore, the powerful adults are all either The Chessmaster or a Reasonable Authority Figure. Sure, they do commit some seeming acts of stupidity like in the source material, but now it's either designed to look stupid to fool people or totally justified in the context of the character's new motivations. | |

Frozen: A Frozen Headache "fixes" an issue the writer had with Frozen (2013): Elsa hit her head, blacked out, and walked away fine a few hours later. The story adds in a dose of realism by giving Elsa a concussion. When all is lost, then all is found changes the controversial ending to Frozen II. Elsa isn't instantly revived and Anna goes on an adventure to save her. |

The New Retcons is the effort of a group of bloggers to write unofficial continuations of the strip. The final development is Elly Patterson's death as the result of a bungled attempt to murder John by a third party; the logic behind that is that the strip is going into straight reprints because Elly is dead and we're seeing her life flash before our eyes. One of those bloggers went on to write The Unauthorized Liography of the Patterson Family, whose ending is very much a fix fic, in which Michael realizes he's become Elly, seeks therapy, and becomes a Cool Old Guy; Liz realizes she made a mistake marrying Anthony, divorces him (with Therese, of all people acting as her attorney), and marries Warren; April reconciles with her siblings; and John and Elly... die within minutes of each other from bad eating habits. Hey, for the fans, that was an improvement. | |

"What if they saved Jake's family?" begins with the way Sol would've written the evacuations in #49: instead of each family going one at a time, the group splits up into pairs of Cassie and Tobias (who gently tell the former's parents), Rachel and Ax (who argue with the former's family), and Jake and Marco (who drag the former's family into the car by force using their battle morphs). Many chapters spare the real Tom because he's one of the author's favourite characters, and/or the Auxiliary Animorphs because she took issue with a bunch of disabled characters being killed off and then forgotten about. |

Glee: Hunting the Unicorn is a Deconstruction Fic of the Kurt/Blaine relationship involving liberal amounts of Cerebus Retcons, Backstory, and Fridge Horror for Blaine — which turns him from a Relationship Sue into a severely damaged person who desperately needs a hug. The author mentions that if the writers had given Blaine less songs and more writing, his characterization could have been similar. Glee The Virtual Season Four, from the same fandom, is written as a backlash to season three and takes some elements of the real season four while repairing some of the things it and preceding seasons did. For example, the mass ship sinking of "The Breakup" is averted; the characters still have their problems with separation and loneliness, but deal with it in other ways (some better than others). Glee: The New York Story is an ensemble fix fic which predominantly follows Finn Hudson who instead of going back to Lima, Ohio following his semi-honorable discharge in the army, goes to New York City and develops from an army reject, to a student—and later teacher—at a prestigious performing arts college. The first three seasons of Glee are canon, while the author diverges away from Seasons 4-6, capturing the reader in a world where Finn is alive, and successfully completes his goal in being a teacher. |

The Loud House: Lincoln Gets Limber has a downplayed example. While the fanfic is about Lincoln joining a gymnastics class because he discovers he likes the sport but hides it from most of his family and friends out of fear of mockery, Chapter 59 reveals that the extremely controversial parts of "No Such Luck" (the family locking Lincoln out of the house, not believing him when he told the truth that he wasn't bad luck, and forcing him to wear the squirrel suit when they thought it canceled out his "bad luck") was nothing more than a really bad and traumatizing nightmare Lincoln had. After he woke up from the nightmare and confessed about lying that he was bad luck, his parents and sisters reveal that they knew the whole time (they were just excluding him from a few family activities to pressure him into confessing), and they reassure him they would have never done what their dream counterparts did to him. | |

Many chapters spare the real Tom because he's one of the author's favourite characters, and/or the Auxiliary Animorphs because she took issue with a bunch of disabled characters being killed off and then forgotten about. Dæmorphing has some aspects of a fix-it, such as addressing continuity errors and solving problems in some very different, less immediately disastrous ways, notably this also makes a great number of new problems appear, and makes the threat posed by the Andalites even more explicit, without the means canon used to defuse it. While the author of Eleutherophobianote Who also wrote All Assorted Animorphs AUs likes the ending of Animorphs, the idea behind it was to have Jake's post-war life suck slightly less than in canon. She accomplished this by sparing Tom. There are a few fics where Elfangor didn't die after the crash and was able to lead the Animorphs, such as Elfangor's Folly. |

Synépeies - A Collection Of NTR Consequences does this towards several Netorare doujins. Usually, either the hapless protagonist who gets his girlfriend 'stolen' from him Grew a Spine, or an Original Character will intervene on his behalf, and in some way dole out Adaptational Karma to the antagonist and the cheating woman, who at minimum will be completely humiliated by the end. Meanwhile, the protagonist learns to move on and typically gets a new, loving girlfriend who is a far better match than the cheater. | |

The Command & Conquer fanfic Tiberium Wars was written more or less as a Fix Fic aimed not at the game itself, but at the official Novelization. Even though it's not even past the first act of the game thus far, the general consensus among the readers is that it has well surpassed the actual novel. Surpassing the novel itself isn't really that much of an achievement, considering how stupid and awful it was. Some people are speculating, though, that this fic could surpass the game. |

The Cliff is a fanfic of The Ring of the Nibelung, where Brünnhilde is woken up by Mime instead of Siegfried and more than ten years earlier than in canon. As they grow closer, Mime stops being embittered and angry and no longer harbours world domination plans, while Brünnhilde makes sure Siegfried is raised better than in canon. These changes eventually lead to the ring getting returned to the Rhinedaughters without any bloodshed, and absolutely everyone who was alive in the beginning of Siegfried is Spared by the Adaptation. | |

The Being To Timelessness fanfic series is an Alternate Universe Fic of David Tennant's tenure on Doctor Who from "School Reunion" onwards to depict how things would go if Rose and the Doctor formed a telepathic link. While most of the episodes stayed relatively the same (apart from changes made to accomodate Rose in the rewrites of series 3 and 4), the author strongly despises Steven Moffat's work and felt Moffat had no respect for the Doctor's relationship with Rose, and rewrote those stories to make the Doctor and Rose more in-characternote In "The Girl in the Fireplace," the Doctor doesn't go back to snog Reinette and instead follows his lead with the clockword droids, for instance; in the "Silence in the Library" two-parter, River Song is established to just be Melody Pond and the whole thing about her being raised to kill the Doctor has been eliminated. She's also just the daughter of Amy and Rory, future companions to the Doctor and Rose. Some episode rewrites also saved the lives of secondary characters who were killed in the original storiesnote e.g. in "The Impossible Planet" two-parter, the Doctor makes a detour to rescue some of the Ood rather than leave them to die after he defeats the Beast. In "The Sontaran Strategem," Rose reminds the Doctor to play nice with the UNIT brass; subsequently, Colonel Mace is more inclined to listen to the Doctor's warnings about the Sontarans' tactics and thus fewer UNIT troops die trying to engage the Sontarans. Luke Rattigan is also spared in the episode as a result of the Doctor using some alternate thinking when it comes to blowing up the Sontaran command's ship. In "The Unicorn and the Wasp", Lady Eddison's legitimate son Roger is saved thanks to Rose getting him out of the Vespiform's path in time, a decision the author made both to lessen Lady Eddison's angst (from also losing her housekeeper and her bastard son in that same night) as well as avert the Bury Your Gays trope that was very much prsent in the original episode. Martha's crush on the Doctor is eliminated thanks to the Doctor and Rose being married, so Martha's character moments are more emphasizing on her own strengths. Donna also keeps her memories at the end of "Journey's End" thanks to an alternate means of defeating Davros. | |

The fic Lighting Candles addresses how the Guardians' original process of meeting new spirits and (if they're chosen) helping them become a Guardian was flawed, with them admitting that if they hadn't ignored Jack Frost for 300 years before trying to make him a Guardian, then he might have been more receptive to joining. | |

In Last Child of Krypton, Shinji gets Kryptonian powers and an early lesson on power and responsibility. As a result of it, he tries to use his powers to help people. When he is summoned to Tokyo-3, he is still shy and soft-spoken, but he is more emotionally stable and more compassionate than his canon counterpart, he is committed to help and protect others, and he is powerful enough to fight anything thrown at him. | |

Code Geass fix fic mostly aims at the ending's "Zero Requiem". Even the Super Robot Wars series allows you to avoid it (if you fulfill a number of unlisted prerequisites or play a New Game Plus) by preventing the Black Knights' betrayal. Most interesting is Understudy, which depicts Zero Requiem as it happened in canon right up until Suzaku is in position to slay Lelouch — at which point he hesitates, giving Lelouch's troops enough time to gun him down. And this was Suzaku's plan all along — he wanted to be the one to take the blame for Lelouch's atrocities and atone for his actions, when in canon it was Lelouch who got to do that. The fan comic "Code Geass R 2 Remake" whose author was disappointed with the canon ending retells events in turns 22-25 in order to give the ending a more bittersweet one. |

The Conversion Bureau: Not Just Ponies is a more conventional Fix Fic for the setting in the sense the idea is rewriting it into something without the Fridge Horror of the original, the Ron the Death Eater aspects many Conversion Bureau fics use, or the 'humans wipe out ponies.' The end result in the merger of the worlds is not an invasion, but a natural cataclysm neither side can stop, the ponies aren't forcing the transformation on anyone but humanity needs it to survive, technology is being preserved and modified so the humans can use it correctly in their new forms, and, as the title suggests, humans have far more options than just ponies and free choice of what they become. As a consequence of this, the PER and HLF are both Knight Templar groups who grossly misunderstand the true nature of situation. | |

Young Justice: Darkness Falls and Young Justice Titans are fix fics for the Young Justice universe in some ways. For example, with such an emphasis on hard timescales, the 5-year jump felt abrupt and problematic for some parties concerned, so in order to keep things more grounded, Angelus-v1 picks up Darkness Falls right from after the end of Season 2, so as not to disorient readers going in again. There's also the discussion of Vandal Savage's accusations about the League's "protecting" evolution, with the Big 3 discussing how what they're really in a fight for is against the malcontents of a society. And of course, as mentioned above, Wally ceasing ties in nicely with what his plans are with Darkseid. | |

After Avengers: Endgame came out, several of these were written. Some go out of their way to either prevent the deaths of certain characters (particularly Black Widow and Iron Man) or address certain Fridge Logic issues due to the nature of the movie's use of time travel.

Chick Tracts have become a magnet for Remix Comics and Fix Fic of this sort, thanks to their endemic research failures.

The Fairly OddParents!: A Lonely Girl tries to fix the episode "Just the Two of Us" by changing Trixie's personality to be more in-line with her pre-flanderization one (with Trixie's persona being just an act and her having Hidden Depths behind her rich "popular girl" image). Instead of freaking out because Timmy's the only one around to adore her, she freaks out because she and Timmy are the only people left. Her asking Timmy to tell her she's pretty is a self-esteem boost. The All New Fairly OddParents! is one towards seasons 9 and 10 of the original show, due to the author's dissatisfaction of the direction that the original series took in those seasons, and goes back to the roots of the earlier seasons while also giving attention to plotlines that haven't been used by the show in years. A few episodes of the show have received alternate endings or rewrites, such as "Information Stupor Highway", "Movie Magic" and "Vicky Gets Fired". |

The Crimson Garment is most certainly a Kill la Kill Fix Fic. It's Darker and Edgier compared to the anime it's based on, removes much of the zaniness and World of Ham qualities, and makes the twist that Life Fibers are aliens common knowledge, which causes the main cast to make more competent decisions than their original counterparts. It also considerably cranks up the amount of angst the main cast goes through especially Satsuki. | |

Teen Titans fics that resurrect Terra after her Heroic Sacrifice are almost as endemic are those that inflict Die for Our Ship on her. After it's revealed that she actually was resurrected by unknown means, it changed into fixing what the author didn't like about that approach. One of them, part of the "Sanza Salazar Saga", has Terra revived by the actions of a group of villains, mostly so the Titans can get to her before she decides I Just Want to Be Normal like she did in the show. Quite a few fix "Things Change" where Beast Boy is able to successfully convince her to come back to the team. Though, one in particular had Beast Boy taking more drastic measures to convince her. | |

Once Upon a Studio: Version 2.0 is a huge extended cut of Disney's centenary short; a huge Script Fic written by lifelong Disney fans Matthew Muir and Lauren Sharpe, who believed the existing short had even more potential. It gives Cinderella, Moana, Rapunzel and their respective princes and families a considerably larger role in bringing the spirits of the other characters back up after Goofy's unfortunate accident. Rapunzel starts up an even more epic, rousing rendition of "When You Wish Upon a Star" on her guitar, and Cinderella sings the opening lines, before handing over to Belle and the Beast's duet. This new rendition steadily gains momentum as more and more characters join in, and others step into fix Goofy's earlier mistake, and it ultimately becomes an even grander and more epic finale than that of the existing OUAS, with everyone triumphantly singing the final verse as a unified ensemble. The finale even involves Cinderella and the Prince, Rapunzel and Eugene, and Aladdin and Jasmine singing the opening lines to the choruses of their own signature tunes, before everyone proudly sings the line "Your dreams come true!", as Tinker Bell finally uses her wand to create the photo. The new photo even includes Moana's father, Chief Tui, standing proudly alongside her and Cinderella, Yo-Yo Flamingo and the Spring Sprite from Fantasia 2000, and even the spirit of Mufasa watching proudly from the roof of the studio building. This is followed soon afterwards by a relaxing epilogue scene set in the studio's lounge area, where Mickey, Cinderella, Prince Charming, Fairy Godmother and a number of other characters send the audience off with a heartfelt address, assuring them of the Walt Disney Company's bright and promising future, before bidding their respective farewells, as we fade into the heartwarming end caption: "To all who have imagined with us, laughed with us, and dreamed with us, Thank You". This version also brings back even more Disney voice acting legends who were previously absent, including Kate Higgins as Aurora, Linda Larkin as Jasmine, Ernie Sabella as Pumbaa, Tony Goldwyn and Minnie Driver as Tarzan and Jane, Zachary Levi as Eugene, Christopher Daniel Barnes as Prince Charming and Prince Eric, and even Temuera Morrison as Chief Tui. |

Whatever Happened to Elfstar? is a retelling of the Chick Tracts story Dark Dungeons which gives a rational explanation for the events of the story and cuts out the demonization of role-playing games. Ms. Frost, here named Gina, is given a motive for killing off Marcie's character Black Star (she was jealous of how close Marcie was getting to Debbie, whom she wanted for herself). Marcie reacts so negatively to her character dying, even being Driven to Suicide, not because of the game itself but because she was repeatedly being bullied by Gina and got kicked out of the group for calling her out on it, leaving her friendless. Debbie finds the preacher's words condemning D&D as witchcraft absurd, but decides to quit the friend circle and burn her D&D stuff not because it is "evil occultic material", but as a symbolic gesture of putting her past with Gina behind her, as she realizes what a Toxic Friend Influence Gina was and wants to cut off all contact. |

If the Emperor Had a Text-to-Speech Device is an interesting case of a Fix Fic that has two layers. On one hand, the series's main premise is the Emperor fixing the setting's in-universe's problems, like reforming the Ecclesiarchy and the Inquisition and redeeming Magnus the Red. On the other hand, the series also retcons, ignores, or at the very least makes fun of those aspects of the lore which are widely disliked by the fanbase. OP characters like Kaldor Draigo or the Ultramarines, are made more grounded or become comic relief, the Flanderization of the Chaos Gods is reversed (though the more nuanced take on Chaos is mostly provided by Magnus and Uriah, so take it with a grain of salt), and the more controversial aspects of new editions are disregarded or introduced in a different manner. More widely, the dynamic plot of the series was at least initially a response to the perceived unwillingness of Games Workshop to advance the setting's storyline, but as the new editions started to bring more plot developments, often similar to those introduced in the ''TTS''-verse, this is now a moot point. | |

Sonic the Hedgehog: Originally, in Sonic Adventure 2, Shadow the Hedgehog fell into the Earth's atmosphere and "died" after fighting the Biolizard with Sonic's help. Since then, Eggman resurrected Shadow, who'd develop amnesia, and even went far as to develop Shadow androids to confuse Shadow, and in turn, the player. So, one fanfic author developed two fanfics explaining the alternate ending where Sonic actually saves Shadow from falling into the Earth. That way, Shadow won't be able to whine, complain, and mope about his past, instead vowing to protect Sonic and friends as his new friends, while Eggman doesn't build the Shadow androids at all to confuse Shadow and the player. The first fanfic takes place through Shadow's perspective, while the second takes place through Cream's perspective, to explain Cream the Rabbit's addition to the story. The same author wrote an alternate version of the same story in Sonic Adventure to correct the problems with not only Sonic's character-development, but also every other Sonic character, including Big the Cat as well as two new additions, Cream and Rouge. The fic is told through Sonic, Cream, and Rouge's perspectives, similar to Sonic Adventure's multiple-perspective storyline. In the alternate version, each character goes through a moment of development; Sonic struggles to learn what it means to rely on friends just as much as to protect them, while Cream learns the value of growing-up and protecting the people she cares for, and Rouge becomes more of an honorable thief with compassion for all life. Making Sonic Forces Again is a rewrite video of Sonic Forces where the plot is rewritten in an attempt at improving it. |

My Immortal never made much sense to begin with, which may be why it has a "fix chapter within a fix fic". It's written by an unknown "hacker" who breaks into the author's account, kills off Ebony, and returns everything to how it was in canon — with one notable exception: | |

The Conversion Bureau story Ten Minutes: Aftermath was written by Chatoyance as a response to the pro-human sentiments of the original story Ten Minutes, intentionally subverting the message of the original in order to fit the author's own work into her setting. It wasn't well received, however. | |

One of the best-known examples is The Hill of Swords by Gabriel Blessing, which does this for The Familiar of Zero. The original series is frequently criticized as being a waste of a good plot which is ruined by fanservice and harem antics (the anime especially) and an excessively abusive relationship between a tsundere with a hair-trigger temper and an idiot of a male lead who doesn't know how to keep his mouth shut around her. Gabe's solution? Replace Saito with Shirou Emiya, and watch in awe as the Belligerent Sexual Tension vanishes, the harem dynamics disappear almost entirely, and Louise is Rescued from the Scrappy Heap and develops into a character who is not only likable but admirable. While it has its share of flaws, it proved successful enough to spawn a massive following of fics with similar "Replace Saito with _____" premises. He later does the same thing with Sekirei with In Flight. With Shirou having the experience of partipating in another secret tournament, he's much more competent, serious, and prepared than Minato, the story is much different than Sekirei. It also made the reunion of Kusano and Shiina happen much earlier, made Akitsu an official Sekirei, and saved Chiho before Uzume's main/canon death. Also, with how the story's progressing, it has lessened the chance of Shirou becoming Archer. With more action and badassery (courtesy of Shirou), it won't be going too far if one says it's better than the original. It seems it will end in a different way than the original. |

Earth's Children: Broud's Destiny by Stephanie is a Pseudocanonical Fic. Broud gradually becomes more mature and tries to be a good leader, especially after he meets a young widow from the Others who is utterly unlike Ayla, and they feel compelled by the spirits, as well as by circumstances, to be together. It also fixes the "Ayla's clan are all dead/The Clan will die out" business by showing how the Clan as a whole, and Ayla's adoptive family, will survive through joining their destinies with some of the Others. |

Warhammer 40,000 If the Emperor Had a Text-to-Speech Device is an interesting case of a Fix Fic that has two layers. On one hand, the series's main premise is the Emperor fixing the setting's in-universe's problems, like reforming the Ecclesiarchy and the Inquisition and redeeming Magnus the Red. On the other hand, the series also retcons, ignores, or at the very least makes fun of those aspects of the lore which are widely disliked by the fanbase. OP characters like Kaldor Draigo or the Ultramarines, are made more grounded or become comic relief, the Flanderization of the Chaos Gods is reversed (though the more nuanced take on Chaos is mostly provided by Magnus and Uriah, so take it with a grain of salt), and the more controversial aspects of new editions are disregarded or introduced in a different manner. More widely, the dynamic plot of the series was at least initially a response to the perceived unwillingness of Games Workshop to advance the setting's storyline, but as the new editions started to bring more plot developments, often similar to those introduced in the ''TTS''-verse, this is now a moot point. Tales of the Emperasque is an older take on the same concept as TTS. It can be summed up as "God Emperor hijacks a body of a giant lizard and goes on to fix everything wrong with the 'verse and save the Imperium". Awesome ensues. |

A Lonely Girl tries to fix the episode "Just the Two of Us" by changing Trixie's personality to be more in-line with her pre-flanderization one (with Trixie's persona being just an act and her having Hidden Depths behind her rich "popular girl" image). Instead of freaking out because Timmy's the only one around to adore her, she freaks out because she and Timmy are the only people left. Her asking Timmy to tell her she's pretty is a self-esteem boost. | |

The Final Fantasy X comic Guardian centers around Lulu's backstory and takes the opportunity to either explain or alter things that didn't make much sense in the game. Lulu's unusual fashion sense is explained by being born on a snowy island before moving to Besaid, Chappu's "likeness" to Tidus is shown when he gets an Important Haircut to join the Crusaders, and Lulu staring as a level one mage despite twice being a guardian is due to her Heroic BSoD after Ginnem's death. Additionally, Yuna never loses her "goodbye" sphere, as the author dislikes the scene where Tidus hurls it from the airship. | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: The Pony POV Series isn't solely a Fix Fic, but the author typically does major edits with every new episode to integrate the canon into the story, in the process providing explanations that, in the universe of the fic, make perfect sense and actually explain a Plot Hole or two. For example, Rainbow Dash's behavior in "Mysterious Mare-Do-Well" was the result of her trying to cover up/compensate for her Heroic BSoD resulting from how she handled Discord's Sadistic Choice. A sort-of in-universe example occurs when Twilight ascends into Princess Amicitia, becoming the Alicorn of Friendship, Magic, and Happy Endings. As the personification of Happy Endings, her duty is to travel to various Crapsack Worlds throughout the multiverse and give mortal ponies the encouragement or inspiration they need to achieve their own happy endings, or to discreetly prevent terrible things from happening or Disaster Dominoes from being set in motion. Many of the "bad worlds" she repairs are from existing grimdark fanfictions written by other authors. Cupcakes (Sergeant Sprinkles): Pinkie Pie's murderous insanity is explained as the result of her brain becoming infected by a parasprite larva hiding in a cupcake she ate after the events of "Swarm of the Century". Amicitia tells Gummy to knock the tray of cupcakes off the table, preventing Pinkie from eating any of them. Sweet Apple Massacre: Right before Big Mac is about to torture and murder the Cutie Mark Crusaders, Amicitia reminds him how much he loves his little sister Apple Bloom, how he's always loved and protected his family, and that he would never do this if he was in his right mind. Horrified at what he's done, he frees them, leaving them terrified but unhurt and alive. Big Mac laments that his family will never forgive him, but Amicitia sets him down the path to redemption. Lil Miss Rarity: Rarity briefly thinks of killing her cat Opal when it claws her face open, but Amicitia counters the thought and reminds her that even the best child can hurt their mother without meaning to, and calls Sweetie Belle to get out the first aid kit. Pages Of Harmony: Amicitia convinces Twilight not to experiment on her friends because the knowledge she will gain isn't worth the price she and everyone else will pay for it. Twilight ends up getting therapy and moving back in with her parents, with support from her friends. Rainbow Factory: In her fillyhood, Rainbow Dash discovers the horrors of the Rainbow Factory. With Amicitia's encouragement, she goes straight to Princess Celestia and tells her all about it, who dismantles the Factory and removes the majority of Cloudsdale's officials from power. It should be noted, though, that Amicitia has limits. She was unable to stop The Immortal Game from going south because of how ingrained in the setting the conflict is, but was able to lessen the damage. The Friendship is Magic fanfic Whisper explains the parasprite infestation in "Swarm of the Century", and Twilight's attempt to fix it going horribly awry, as the work of sabotage by the Great and Powerful Trixie, who wrongly blamed Twilight for an apparent curse (actually a case of poison joke) that spoiled Trixie's stage presence. Do you hate Prince Blueblood? Then read The Best Night Ever, where he gets trapped in a "Groundhog Day" Loop and ends up getting immense amounts of Character Development before managing to break the loop. Self-entitled jerk goes in; decent, friendly, and likable prince goes out. There is a genre of fics that try to address the minimal apology Twilight received at the end of "A Canterlot Wedding", which range from sweet (Post Nuptials) to dark (Faith and Doubt). My Brave Pony: Starfleet Magic is a fix fic which also happens to be a Hate Fic, with the author trying to change the entire universe and its concepts to fit his ideas (for example, he absolutely hates the idea of friendship (the main concept of the FiM universe), and thinks that the power of belief is the strongest there is (whatever he means by that)). It's not a Troll Fic. The largely negative reception to the fic resulted in several Fix Fics of it (including Fall of Starfleet, Rebirth of Friendship and My Brave Pony: Starfleet Nemesis), which revolve around deconstructing and "un-fixing" the changes made by Starfleet Magic while also fleshing out the original characters it introduced (who, to be frank, have very little in the way of actual character). Similar to the Pony POV Series example listed above, the fix fic No Hard Feelings takes place right after the events of "Mysterious Mare-Do-Well", where the rest of the Mane Cast have a Jerkass Realization over how their plan to teach Rainbow Dash a lesson in humility ended up unintentionally hurting her feelings. Cupcakes (Sergeant Sprinkles) has created many, many alternate endings by fans who hated the ending. For good reason. It's popular to explain the entire events of the story as All Just a Dream of Pinkie's or Dashie's, have them be shocked and horrified, then have them comfort each other. The Light in the Darkness is perhaps the most beloved example. The Conversion Bureau story Ten Minutes: Aftermath was written by Chatoyance as a response to the pro-human sentiments of the original story Ten Minutes, intentionally subverting the message of the original in order to fit the author's own work into her setting. It wasn't well received, however. The TCB universe in general has received several kinds of Deconstruction Fics aimed at examining the Fridge Horror implications the original and its more "pro-conversion" spin-offs gloss over. The Conversion Bureau: The Other Side of the Spectrum, in addition to addressing the many Fridge Horror and Fridge Logic elements of the original, also gives a plausible reason for why the Equestrians would even launch an extermination campaign against the humans to begin with. Following some Creative Differences and troubles behind the scenes, it's receiving a reboot called Spectrum, which aims to fix some of the issues found in the original story. The Conversion Bureau: Not Alone illustrates that a semi-medieval/barely industrialized society would be curb-stomped by 21st century tactics and weaponry, not every pony is on board with the conversion, and the other species inhabiting the ponies' world would not be happy to see the ponies try to convert an entire species against their will. The Conversion Bureau: Not Just Ponies is a more conventional Fix Fic for the setting in the sense the idea is rewriting it into something without the Fridge Horror of the original, the Ron the Death Eater aspects many Conversion Bureau fics use, or the 'humans wipe out ponies.' The end result in the merger of the worlds is not an invasion, but a natural cataclysm neither side can stop, the ponies aren't forcing the transformation on anyone but humanity needs it to survive, technology is being preserved and modified so the humans can use it correctly in their new forms, and, as the title suggests, humans have far more options than just ponies and free choice of what they become. As a consequence of this, the PER and HLF are both Knight Templar groups who grossly misunderstand the true nature of situation. Today, Tomorrow, and Forever is about a loving mother, Derpy Hooves, having her daughter taken away by the Foal Protection Service for being unfit to care for a foal. This was too heartbreaking for many, so a different ending (And Forever Together) was written when it turned out the whole case was handled incorrectly, several ponies vouch for Derpy's qualifications as a parent, and they are reunited happily. Consequences – A Bad Apple Comedy of Justice is two Fix Fics in one: The author saw Babs Seed as a bit of a Karma Houdini (right down to mentioning the trope name in his Author's Notes), so he wrote two short stories where Applejack intervenes shortly after Babs' Face–Heel Turn in the first, and a reformed Discord actually shows Babs the original episode in a dream for the second one. Light Born From Regret is a Fix Fic to Siege of the Crystal Empire, primarily dealing with the common view of Radiant Hope being Unintentionally Unsympathetic and having a Lack of Empathy for anyone except Sombra. As the writer detests Fix Fics that are actually Accusation Fics in disguise, this is accomplished by having Hope, after all is said and done, simply having a Delayed Reaction and it hitting her exactly what she'd done, to the point of having nightmares about what she could have caused, and ultimately accepting like Sombra she has a lot to make up for, rather than being chewed out by other characters for it. Many fans were not happy that Starlight Glimmer was Easily Forgiven at the end of the Season 5 finale. Some have taken it upon themselves to write fanfics where she receives proper comeuppance for her actions. In Step Right In and Start Again, because of Starlight's tampering with the time spell in the original episode, she has trapped herself in a permanent time loop where every day she reappears in Twilight's castle with no memory of the previous day, awaiting her punishment from Twilight and the Mane Six. It got a fix fic in the form of Starting Over Again, where Twilight creates a magic crown for Starlight to wear that stores and retains her memories as she goes through each time loop. When she realizes that she is now immortal and will outlive every living thing in existence, Starlight devises a potion of eternal youth and gives it to her friends and the rest of Equestria to use. Everypony becomes an immortal alicorn, the races of Equestria explore and colonize the galaxy, and Starlight lives to the end of the universe with her friends, where her time loop is finally broken and she transforms into an alicorn like everyone else. The story ends with a new universe forming, with every character we know and love being present to watch it. The somewhat divisive Series Finale has spurred a few. Such as Fix, which attempts to fix one of the issues fans had about the series finale — namely, the lack of redemption for Chrysalis, Tirek, and Cozy Glow. Other fanfics prefer to fix another issue fans had- namely, the fact that Grogar was fake. My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic Season 10, for example, has the real Grogar appear to threaten Equestria, and even adds his right-hand donkey Bray to boot. The Ending of the End - Love and Tolerance Edition addresses several issues the author had and others may have had with the finale. Such as: The Terrible Trio of Tirek, Chrysalis, and Cozy Glow are not only spared their controversial canon fate, but the shreds of a Villainous Friendship they had shown starting to form are expanded on and they're given a redemption arc… even if they refuse to admit it. Grogar is very real and not Discord in disguise, as part of an extremely questionable scheme to give Twilight some "self confidence" by playing around with three very dangerous villains. Mean Twilight is revived to join The Legion of Doom, as the show seemingly hinted by having Queen Chrysalis hold onto her log, but didn't do anything with it. Instead of just being left dead after one episode and never even getting to meet the heroes properly. The rest of the Mean Six are revived and reunited with her in the epilogue. Cozy Glow is not able to use the Bewitching Bell to become an alicorn and decides not to give herself any other kind of flashy power up that allows her to rely on brute force. Instead granting herself abilities that complement her natural talents and role on the team. And continuing to set herself apart from her powerhouse cohorts. King Sombra is revived once again and his comic book origin story that the show decided to ignore is acknowledged. The Tree of Harmony/"Treelight" is given much more focus and called out for it's more questionable moments. Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash all become alicorns like Twilight after the final battle, allowing them to rule beside her indefinitely. Princess Celestia and Luna decide to hold off on their retirement after the events of the finale, to help Twilight and Equestria's five new alicorn princesses settle in. |

Twilight: Luminosity works on a simple premise: What If? Bella were "derailed" into a more rational, thinking person? Sunspot, written by raxistaicho of Das Sporking (since deleted), started off as a bashfic. But the canon characters got off surprisingly easy. The focus is on an organization of vampire hunters who are much better written and more complex characters, who in turn are not focusing on the canon characters, seeing them as kind of a sideshow compared to the real villains. Most of the canon vampires thus get some positive development. Perhaps it's a fix fic in the sense that the author's sporking experience naturally drew him to fix many of the issues he saw with the canon. |

Empath: The Luckiest Smurf revisits Papa Smurf's infatuation with Smurfette from "Romeo And Smurfette" (both from the comic books and the cartoon show) and puts the issue entirely to rest by Smurfette telling him that she could never love him the same way that she would the other Smurfs. Of course, an alternate timeline tale has her confess her love for Papa Smurf, leading to a May–December Romance that eventually has most of the entire village revolting against it. | |

Frankie Rules, a Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends fic set after an 8-year Time Skip, features fixes for some less-than-popular episodes of the series (for example, the events of "The Little Peas" are revealed to be a wild rumor started by Bloo, and in the final chapter Frankie gets even with Goofball John McGee from "Impostor's Home for Make-Em-Up Pals"). There's also a prequel by the same author that makes amends for one of Madame Foster's most controversial actions. | |

Post-Grand Finale, many Samurai Jack fanfics feature some way of Ashi coming back after getting erased from existence so she and Jack can be together, often with alternate timelines or universes, or even her soul somehow being reincarnated. One particular example is these comics which does it via a crossover with Rick and Morty. In short: Rick brings an Ashi from another dimension to Jack (and apologizes for the infamous April Fool's joke in which the unexpected airing of the third season premiere pre-empted Samurai Jack that night), and in return, Jack gives Rick the recipe for the Mulan Szechuan Dipping Sauce mentioned in "The Rickshank Redemption". Joy has the Gods return Ashi back after fading out of existence due to the time paradox. | |

Warriors Redux revamps the first arc from the ground up. It makes the characters more cat-like, fixes genetically inaccurate designs, diversifys the Clans, and completely redoes the lore. It also fixes plot issues, such as Rusty ignoring his twolegs after being asked to join a Clan, Rusty getting into a fight and winning against a seasoned warrior (instead Rusty's owner removed his collar and Rusty was voted into ThunderClan), and Bluestar being Mistyfoot and Stonefur's mother (which was felt as a contrived element added onto an already convoluted plot). | |

Total Drama Do Over is mostly an Alternate Universe Fic, but as early as the first season, the author aimed to fix elements of the canon he disliked, such as making Zoey's "indie chick" persona more prominent rather than an Informed Attribute and reworking the Courtney/Duncan/Gwen Love Triangle to make Courtney more unambiguously sympathetic (and pairing Gwen off with someone else). All Stars Do Over is the most explicit case; Mal is the antagonist in this series just like in canon, but due to how much the author hated the canon season and its take on Mal, he's given a more threatening role and a more fleshed-out motivation. There's several moments across all seasons that are direct potshots to disliked elements of canon, such as one scene in World Tour Do Over where Courtney drinks a glass of orange juice and makes a point that she has no complaints (one gag in the canon All Stars had Courtney complain about her orange juice). | |

5 Years Later is this primarily for two series the creator finds to have been mistreated by their networks and creators: Danny Phantom and Ben 10.

Archie Sonic Online is a fan continuation of the original continuity of Sonic the Hedgehog (Archie Comics), before the unfortunate circumstances that led to the series being rebooted. Knuckles: Endangered Species is a three-part miniseries, reimagining the events of issues 244-246, the last three parts of the actual Endangered Species. In the original, the last three parts were heavily rewritten to have a majority of characters created by Ken Penders to just disappear from the storyline and never seen again. So in essence, this is a Rewrite of a Rewrite. Sonic Universe #50 is this for Sonic Underground, giving the story a proper ending where Sonic and his siblings properly reunite with Queen Aleena and end Dr. Robotnik's reign while restoring her rule. Dingo reforms after throwing Robotnik in the Robotizer, while Sleet is trapped inside of Sonia's amulet. |

Some Codename: Kids Next Door fan fics portray the Splinter Cell being an actual villain organization bent on ridding the world of all adults instead of being cover-up for the GKND, either with the GKND still coincidentally in existence, or removing the GKND entirely. The KND Splinter Cell's nature and motives vary depending on the author writing the fanfic. One example is titled Operation SPLINTER CELL. Funnily enough, when the show's creator tried to pitch a sequel series years later, the proposed plot was that the GKND turned out to be a villain organization that wishes to rid the universe of adults. | |

The LadyBugOut Alternate Universe and most of the other works of its creator, Miraculous Content. The author claims that the show keeps blaming the main character Marinette for things she has no control over, going so far as to have other characters behave like terrible people with no repercussions so she can get blamed for the fallout. So, most of their works follow the formula of having a character behave in a terrible way exactly like they do in canon, but then being called out or suffering the consequences. Meanwhile Marinette doesn't get unfairly blamed, instead usually ending up in a romantic moment with Luka as that is the author's favourite ship. In LadyBugOut itself this comes after the episode "Oblivio", when Alya posts a photograph of Ladybug and Chat kissing while they are under the effects of the titular villain's amnesia ability to her Ladyblog. While canon treats this as just another Ship Tease moment between the heroes, in LBO this leads to a major fallout between Marinette and Alya, as well as between Ladybug and Chat. Alya, Adrien, and Chloé, all characters the author views as mistreating Marinette without comeuppance in canon, permanently lose their status as heroes, with their powers going to characters the author is sympathetic towards (Juleka, Luka and Kagami respectively). | |

Warrior Cats: A Different Outcome addresses the series' genetically impossible cat designs by attributing any inconsistencies to cats either being adopted or having different biological parents who could produce kits with their coat colors and then staying silent about the matter. The Fire Has Burnt Out is a rewrite starring Sandstorm instead of Firestar. It aims to improve the general world of Warriors, add proper genetics, and fix things that annoy the AU's creator. Warriors Redux revamps the first arc from the ground up. It makes the characters more cat-like, fixes genetically inaccurate designs, diversifys the Clans, and completely redoes the lore. It also fixes plot issues, such as Rusty ignoring his twolegs after being asked to join a Clan, Rusty getting into a fight and winning against a seasoned warrior (instead Rusty's owner removed his collar and Rusty was voted into ThunderClan), and Bluestar being Mistyfoot and Stonefur's mother (which was felt as a contrived element added onto an already convoluted plot). Warriors Rewrite is a rewrite of the series. Amongst other changes, it changes the Warrior Code (for example, the ban on Cross-Clan relationships is not present), emphasises and changes relationships, expands the culture of the Clans, and adds more LGBT characters. |

Many fans dissatisfied with Susan Pevensie's fate at the end of The Chronicles of Narnia have written continuation stories about her life after Narnia. C.S. Lewis himself encouraged this by saying that Susan's story was not finished yet. When the film adaptations in the 2000s came out, music videos on YouTube were common. One notable, using a mixture of clips from the Narnia films, Labyrinth and Titanic (1997) - depicted an elderly Susan with an imaginative granddaughter who helped her rediscover her Narnian memories. It ended with Susan dying in her sleep but joining her siblings in Aslan's Country. | |

Secret Empire was critizised for its ending. After committing many crimes as a US dictator, Captain America is simply "fixed" by a cosmic cube, and returned to his usual self. Many felt it as a Karma Houdini and a complete cop-out. Many fans did not like either that the Ultimate Marvel ceased being published a couple of years before, and the cameo of the original Ultimates in Ultimates 2 #100 felt like very little. Secret Empire: The Ultimate Ending fixes all this, by making the Ultimates bring the Secret Empire to an end earlier. | |

From the Inheritance Cycle, we have the 'A dance of Shadow and Light' series by Ocadioan, which seems to fall right into this trope with The beginnings of the Shadow, where Islanzadi gets to live and Eragon and Arya's relationship troubles finally gets resolved. It is then ultimately subverted by the second story, where all the little changes done in the first story proves to bring quite horrible results for Alagaësia as a whole. Especially for the protagonists. Oh, and did we mention that the male protagonist is ultimately revealed to be a Sociopathic Hero that is also The Unfettered and a Manipulative Bastard to boot? | |

There are a pair of fixfics focused on fixfic-ing the Buffy the Vampire Slayer by exploring the premise of Xander wearing an Obi-Wan Kenobi costume during the Halloween episode, not a soldier costume. Example: Part 1 and Part 2. (Part 2 is a work in progress). There's a Buffyverse fixfic listed on the Fan Fic Recommendations page, I Am What I Am, wherein Xander wears a different Halloween costume, and really is able to fix everything. And when I say everything, I mean literally everything, because he has the memories of a 97-year-old Xander who remembers almost everything bad that happened to any of the Buffyverse characters. There are dozens of fanfics that fix the death of Tara Maclay. Difficult to Fight Against Anger is a two-part alternate ending to season six, where Tara Maclay lives. It still manages to be Darker and Edgier, though, as Tara is instead raped by Warren Mears. One fic changed some of the events of season 3, so that Wesley and Giles were in a relationship and Wesley tried to help Faith instead of having the council take her away; though he did ask them for help, they were a lot more civil about it. Played With a bit, since it actually seemed like Faith would accept their help, but it was just an act and she ended up working for Mayor Wilkins anyway. Although, Wesley actually chose to stay in Sunnydale instead of deciding to go back to England (and ending up in LA.) |

Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation: Mo Dao Zu Shi / The Untamed: The Beast Of Gusu is an example. Thanks to the existence of shifters, Jiang Cheng and Wei Wuxian never lose their golden cores, demonic cultivation is never created and Wei Wuxian doesn’t die after the Sunshot Campaign. Everyone Lives With Knives is an example too. So far, two of the major villains died earlier than they did in canon, while the third is well on the way towards redemption. Jiang Yanli, Jin Zixuan, Wen Qing and the other Wen Remnants have all lived past their canon death dates, Wei Wuxian's first death hasn't happened, and Nie Mingjue's death by qi-deviation looks increasingly unlikely to happen. Gold Poisons is a downplayed example, with the author even stating afterwards that not everything is automatically going to be okay now. However, with Jin Guangshan out of the picture early and Nie Mingjue and Jin Guangyao's relationship improved, chances look good that more characters will be making it out alive than in-canon. |

Digimon Re: Tamers is one for Digimon Tamers in regards to Jeri and Impmon. Jeri gets promoted to the main character and ends up avoiding becoming a Damsel in Distress for too long as a result, although Leomon is Adapted Out but with a twist; Impmon becomes her partner Digimon instead. Out of a perceived uselessness in his character from the canon until he becomes Beelzemon, Impmon gets a better chance to shine as he also gets to show his Champion and Ultimate forms in this fic.note Devimon and NeoDevimon respectively as depicted here, both of them chosen as another Fix Fic example since Meramon and SkullMeramon don't exactly immediately register as "Demon Lord prior forms" in comparison. Ryo is depicted as a Team Dad character with a case of Adaptational Nice Guy due to his ego being toned down immensely, as then he and Cyberdramon actually address the Elephant in the Living Room from Canon!Tamers by making a plot point out of how Cyberdramon is the result of ZeedMillenniummon and Monodramon DNA Digivolving together. Oh, and Ruki and Ryo are both given an Age Lift to make things less creepy than their canon ages in regards to Ship Tease.note The four year age gap becomes a two year age gap, and Ruki is depicted 17 here with Ryo being 19, with Ruki and Ryo both being aware of Ruki's strict guidelines of how Ryo cannot (or can, at times) look and most certainly can't touch her in a sexual manner until she turns 18 in a few months after the start of the fic. | |

Citadel of the Heart has many examples of this, some more obvious than the others. Digimon Re: Tamers is one for Digimon Tamers in regards to Jeri and Impmon. Jeri gets promoted to the main character and ends up avoiding becoming a Damsel in Distress for too long as a result, although Leomon is Adapted Out but with a twist; Impmon becomes her partner Digimon instead. Out of a perceived uselessness in his character from the canon until he becomes Beelzemon, Impmon gets a better chance to shine as he also gets to show his Champion and Ultimate forms in this fic.note Devimon and NeoDevimon respectively as depicted here, both of them chosen as another Fix Fic example since Meramon and SkullMeramon don't exactly immediately register as "Demon Lord prior forms" in comparison. Ryo is depicted as a Team Dad character with a case of Adaptational Nice Guy due to his ego being toned down immensely, as then he and Cyberdramon actually address the Elephant in the Living Room from Canon!Tamers by making a plot point out of how Cyberdramon is the result of ZeedMillenniummon and Monodramon DNA Digivolving together.

Firefly has many stories that undo Wash's death in the Big Damn Movie. Here's one of them. Dyce's "Horseshoe Nail" series fixes both Book and Wash's deaths through the Butterfly Effect of Jayne becoming closer to River. Somehow it works. There's also Forward, which also undoes Wash and Book's deaths, though in a much more straightforward Retcon. |

Family Guy: The Family Guy Fanon has an episode called "Between Sanity and Madness" that tries to fix Peter's father Francis. Not only does Francis get a harsh dose of karma when Peter kicks him and Thelma out of his house for all they do to them (the breaking point being them trying to drown him) and gets a decent amount Character Development where he realizes how awful he's been and makes it up to Peter by apologizing to him and noticeably toning down his Jerkass traits and being more open to Peter's family compared to the original. | |

The Mountain and the Wolf: Zigzagged in the Game of Thrones / Warhammer Fantasy crossover The Mountain and the Wolf. On the one hand, the Wolf's interference has rescued several characters from their canon deaths (Theon, Beric, Missandei, Qyburn, Jaime and Cersei) and killed others in far more deserving ways (Clegane, twice, Ramsay, Littlefinger, Euron). On the other hand, Chaos is now poised to invade Westeros, some of those rescued have joined him, those dead characters have now returned as monstrous servants of Chaos, and quite a few horrific events still happened, just less badly than before (e.g. Daenerys still torches King's Landing, but this time it's visibly due to an enemy spell, and because she immediately sets to work rebuilding the city the inhabitants are a lot faster to forgive her). | |

Revenge of the Sith: Anakin and Padmé's secret marriage happens offscreen (making it a surprise when they're revealed to be a couple), we actually see Grievous' kidnapping of Palpatine, Grievous is a truly dangerous warrior (á la Star Wars: Clone Wars), and Darth Maul dies on Grievous' flagship in place of Dooku. At the climax, Obi-Wan's friendship with Anakin collapses when Anakin discovers that Obi-Wan only trained him to fulfill a promise to Qui-Gon, and Anakin gets booted from the Jedi Order for killing Darth Maul, only for Palpatine to appoint him the new leader of the Jedi Council. In the end, there's a full-on battle on Mustafar preceding the climactic duel, where a power-mad Anakin purposely sends most of the Jedi to their deaths by making them serve as cannon fodder. Afterwards, Obi-Wan lies to Padmé and tells her that Anakin died in battle, and Owen personally offers to raise Padmé's child away from the chaos of war. Yoda also never battles Palpatine; he and Obi-Wan simply go into hiding to wait for the right moment to strike back at the Sith-controlled Republic. | |

Magica Madoka Veneficus Puella arguably plays with this trope. While the characters are now capable of finally getting their happy endings, the fights that take place cause collateral damage on par with your average war. Add to the fact that a potential class X-4 apocalypse is heading over the horizon and you have yourselves a problem. | |

He later does the same thing with Sekirei with In Flight. With Shirou having the experience of partipating in another secret tournament, he's much more competent, serious, and prepared than Minato, the story is much different than Sekirei. It also made the reunion of Kusano and Shiina happen much earlier, made Akitsu an official Sekirei, and saved Chiho before Uzume's main/canon death. Also, with how the story's progressing, it has lessened the chance of Shirou becoming Archer. With more action and badassery (courtesy of Shirou), it won't be going too far if one says it's better than the original. It seems it will end in a different way than the original. | |

Although the above has only four chapters that went on a years long break before updating and leaving the fic's status in the air, fans can still be entertained by three other, extremely well-written, Fix Fics — Ashes of the Past, the A New Chance Series, and Pokémon Reset Bloodlines. All of them make Ash not be an Idiot Hero, but in different ways: the former is a Peggy Sue fic, thus providing a logical explanation for this, and for the Adaptational Badass status of every single character, whereas the latter simply diverges from canon after Pokémon Heroes, by giving Ash a legendary Pokémon in a way that actually makes sense, and uses this to have him mature as a trainer in a believable manner. The latter fic is inspired by Ashes and uses a similar set up for fixing things, though the fic is more focused on targeting smaller issues like Pidgeot and the Counter-Shield than a full rewrite of canon Ash's attempts (as the time jump creates enough of an alternate universe repeating things isn't the easiest thing in the world to do). | |
