A deeply cynical K-On! Hentai Doujinshi entitled Manibiki JK Sei Keion Bu takes a Crapsack World look at the logical conclusion of how the girls might turn out in the real world with their personalities as adults. Azusa becomes trapped by her cuteness and is forced into a career of loli-idol singing that will no doubt end by her 25th year. Ritsu barely scrapes by now as a burger flipper, lacking the talent of her friends to truly advance in the music world. Mio's timid personality led to her husband leaving her, and is now an emotionally-dead recluse living off the alimony from her divorce, constantly dressed in the costume of the band's first performance and repeatedly watching the video of that concert day in day out to relive those happy times. Mugi completely loses touch with her friends, married with a son to a British millionaire. Saddest of all, after being periodically raped to pay off the REAL debt of buying Geetah and not talking about it to anybody, Yui's childish innocence was gradually warped into full on eccentricity and madness, and though still talented and becoming famous and successful, dies young, alone and friendless of a drug overdose like so many other young musical geniuses do. Do NOT read this doujinshi if you love the girls of Afterschool Tea Time.

I didn't think a good Ah My Goddess Dark Fic was possible until I read Amants and its sequel Choix.

This editor has read, of all things, a Darker And Edgier Lucky Star (!) Doujinshi. The Nakama has split up, they've all gone to college, and Kagami is stuck in a depressing rut in which she no longer socializes with anyone. Until Konata walks back into her life... only now Kona-chan is a suicidally depressed loner who cuts herself. They fall in love and sleep together... and then Kagami wakes up and realizes it was All Just A Dream and goes back to her painfully stagnant life. It read like such a Narmy Wall Banger there's no way it wasn't a Stealth Parody of Dark Fic... one hopes. That said, there was also an alternate ending in which Kagami wakes to find that the All Just A Dream ending was All Just A Dream itself, and the two of them live Happily Ever After as lovers. So guess which ending everyone preferred.
* That'd be Lonely Kagamin. Incidentally, this troper found it genuinely depressing.

If Konata was treated as how nerds are in real life... (Warning: Tear Jerker.)

# Soul Eater has been getting a few, too. For example, A Souls Songbook is a Alternate Universe Fic where the battle between Shinigami-sama & Asura eight centuries ago went the other way, resulting in a Crapsack World run by the witches, the Kishin is worshiped by the mainstream religion, and the Shapeshifter Weapons are considered things.
