== Anime and Manga ==
* ''[[Infinite Stratos]]'', nuff said. For average viewer, it's just a mediocre [[Unwanted Harem]] [[Recycled in Space|WITH]] [[Instant Awesome, Just Add Mecha|MECHA]]. [[Vocal Minority|Fan Fic writers on the other hand]]... War, politic, social shift... the potential is limitless, and three point above is rarely addressed in the canon source (except small clues here and there) despite it was said the introduction of titular [[Powered Armor]] [[Informed Ability|more than few things changed]], leaving the gap for the fic writers to explore. It was not rare to find the sheer difference of atmosphere in I.S. fanfic as the result, from [[Romantic Comedy]] / [[Shipping]] to [[Grimdark]] [[War Fic]], despite the [[Needs More Love|tiny size of the fanbase]].
* ''[[Death Note (Manga)|Death Note]]'' has lots of rules that don't come up in the main plot. Example: if someone's name is written in two Death Notes within a split second of each other, it is regarded as simultaneous and the victim ''lives'', unaffected by either note.
** [[Backstory]]: L's / Mello's / Near's / B's / Matt's [[Dark and Troubled Past|Dark And Troubled]] [[Mysterious Past]]. What does Wammy's House do and why was it built? / Light's career as a [[Kid Hero|teen detective]] and/or [[For Want of a Nail|what would happen if Light didn't find the notebook]] or [[What If|what would happen if]] {{spoiler|Light didn't get his memories back.}}

== Live Action TV ==
* Given that it's a show about [[Time Travel]], ''[[
** [[Doctor Who
** And of course, any adventures [[Doctor Who
*** Or for that matter, any adventures [[Doctor Who
** There is the alternate universe that was first visited in series two and where Mickey decided to stay to help the effort against the Cybermen; at the end of the series {{spoiler|Rose is trapped there with her family}} and in series four {{spoiler|Human!Doctor and Rose are living there together; a deleted scene showed that they could eventually grow their own TARDIS}}. What else could the fanfic writers want?
** Not to mention various fan attempts of fleshing out companions into more rounded and complex characters than presented in the show (Tegan, Nyssa, Peri, Mel, and other underdeveloped companions get this treatment in fan fiction).
Line 111:
* ''[[Silent Hill]]'', being a premiere [[Mind Screw]] series told exclusively from the view of the player character ({{spoiler|with the possible exception of ''Shattered Memories''}}), contains a wealth of information for fans to explore, especially concerning the nature of the eponymous [[Genius Loci]] and the cult that worships it.
* Many ''[[Golden Sun (Video Game)|Golden Sun]]'' fanfics focus on what Isaac's party was up to during the first two thirds of ''The Lost Age'', before they joined forces with Felix's group.
* Several fics based on ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (Video Game)|The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess]]'' focus on {{spoiler|what happened to Midna after she returned to Twilight, and if she ever found a way to reunite with Link}}.
* ''[[Pokémon]]'' has generated massive numbers of fanfics over the years, thanks to the sheer cultural presence in the childhoods of an entire generation. The games(especially the early ones) often had sparse characterization and backstories for many characters(including [[Silent Protagonist|the protagonists]]), making [[Alternate Character Interpretation|alternate character interpretations]] easy for many writers. And we're not even getting into the related media...
* ''[[Metal Gear Solid]]'' fandom is particularly fond of writing fics about Liquid's backstory (usually set during his time in the Middle East) or the day The Boss killed The Sorrow. In fact, these two plots are so popular in MGS fan fiction that almost every male MGS fan writer has taken on the former, and almost every female MGS fan writer has taken on the latter.
