Doukutsu Days is a Cave Story fanfic written by Mr. Vacan. It is stated by the author himself to be both a Troll Fic and a Cave Story analogue of My Immortal.

A sequel, Doukutsu Days 2: Electric Boogaloo was later made, followed by Doukutsu Days 3: The Final Revenge, the final entry in the series.
