** There are even a few fanfics written that are hate fics against hate fics. An example includes ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6362692/1/Kyrie_Eleison Kyrie Eleison]'', which from the first paragraph states it was written to deconstruct fics like ''[[Neon Exodus Evangelion]]''.
* ''Chunin Exam'' and ''Partially Kissed Hero'' by Perfect LionHeart (aka Jared "Skysaber" Ornstead) are both this in their core (for ''[[Naruto]]'' and ''[[Harry Potter]]'' respectively)... at least when they are not spewing his [[Evil Versus Evil|morality]] and [[Disproportionate Retribution|sense of "justice" and revenge]]. They tend to abound with [[Complete Monster]]s (including the protagonists), [[Straw Loser]]s, massive powerups, [[Plot Hole|plotholes]], [[Author Filibuster|long lectures of what sucks]] from the [[Canon]] and why, torturing/mutating the characters into copies of how they "should be" and loads and loads of cynicism. Fans are divided between those who believe the guy is a genius level writer (both fics have over 10,000 reviews) and the rest who believe he is pure evil and a deranged psychopath with very few touches of the actual canon.

* A fanfiction of the video game ''Clock Tower 2: The Struggle Within'' had all the characters slaughtered by the characters from ''Clock Tower 1''. ''The Struggle Within'' is probably the least popular of the ''Clock Tower'' games.
* In the aftermath of DC Comics' [[Crisis Crossover]], ''[[Final Crisis]]'', the internet saw a great torrent of hate fics for it, not to mention the run on Batman that [[Grant Morrison]] wrote. The most common criticisms for this is "I do not understand it, therefore I hate and mock it" which is actually [[Completely Missing the Point|a minor theme in the story]]. People don't seem to realize that this wasn't done by Grant "''Justice League'' and ''New X-Men''" Morrison, but rather was written by Grant "''[[Animal Man]]'' and ''[[Doom Patrol]]'' (or ''read this multiple times to fully appreciate/understand it''), telling a chapter in an epic story that acknowledges all that was written before" Morrison.
