11* Recommended by [=MemebaAmoeba=]
12* Status: Complete
13* Synopsis: A comic strip mini-series featuring alternate versions of Travis' encounters and battles with four particular alien bosses from ''Videogame/NoMoreHeroesIII''.
14* Comments: [[WhatIf What if...]] [[TheUnfought the unfought]] was...fought? As synopsis implies, the comics greatly expand on the powers, tactics, personalities, and sometimes backstories of the alien supervillains Travis was unable to battle in the game proper, granting him bonafide confrontations with each one. And of course, they provide new, entertaining, and sometimes horrific reasons for the reader/player/Travis to want them dead.

18* ''Status'': Dead
19* Synopsis: A take on each assassin and how they were pulled into Sylvia's scam to make millions.
20* Comments: A believable, realistic outlook on the game's plot and the characters. Almost seems {{Canon}}.
21** The grammar could use some work, though.

25* ''Status'': Dead (last updated 3/1/2014)
26* Synopsis: Takes place after the events of No More Heroes: Desperate Struggle. The UAA shuts down after Travis makes it to number one once more, but new corporations start to surface as a result of Pizza Batt's fall. As such, corporations start to pit freelance assassins against each other in order to take out their competition. Hilarity ensues.
27* Comments: It pokes great fun at America's bad economy, and it manages to retain all of the same aspects as the game. Travis and the other characters are IC, and it breaks the {{Fourth Wall}} just as good as the game does, only in fanfiction form.

31* ''Status'': Complete
32* Synopsis: A backstory on Margeret and how she became an assassin in the UAA, following up to her last Ranking Match.
33* Comments: Completely believable, it sets a nice background for Margaret's character which the game failed to do. Not only does it flesh Margaret out, it puts a bit of characterisation in Bad Girl, Helter Skelter, and Alice. Maybe they are [[AxCrazy not so bad after all]]. Can be a sort of a {{Tear Jerker}}.

42* Synopsis: Shinobu has had enough of Travis' "collections".
43* Comments: One of the better Travis/Shinobu fics in the fandom. Even if you don't ship it, you can still enjoy how in character everyone is.
44** The story seems to have disappeared, but there is an [[https://web.archive.org/web/20200802075614/http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4910036 archive.org capture]] available.

59* Crossover with: ''[[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic]]''
60* Synopsis: Finally made angry at bronydom for the cancellation of his new favorite anime, Travis Touchdown decides to take up his beam-katanas and kill all the ponies.
61* Comments: Despite accusations of being a mean-spirited trollfic, this story is well-written, nicely constructed, and the characterizations are a blast. There may be out-of-character moments for the MLP characters (such as swearing as often as Travis), but it makes them come off as the NMH bosses they're being presented as. Speaking of, the "boss fights" are the best parts of the story. If for nothing else, read the story for these fights!
