The End of the Affair by Frog-kun

  • Recommended by abandoban
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: Future fic. At the end of high school, Hachiman never did forsake his philosophy. He and Yukino part ways to pursue the lives of loners. Years later, they meet again, but there is no possibility of an innocent high school romance now.

Even Hikigaya Hachiman can write a Love Letter by God Emperor Penguin

  • Recommended by AnonBiblophile
  • Status: Dormant (last updated September 2017)
  • Synopsis: As the title suggests, Hachiman writes a love letter (for a class assignment) in his own unique style. While it started off as a short humourous one-shot the author has since revisited it and turned it into a full-fledged story going into the events branching out from the assignment and the resulting consequences.
    • Your mileage may vary. The story starts out very strong but there are quite a few OOC moments, especially later on.

My Adolescent Romantic Comedy Is Incorrect As I Had Logically Proven by SnowPlow

  • Recommended by St0rm, AnonBiblophile
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: Yukinoshita Yukino's perspective on events in the series.

Spring Blooms Into That Room by Lemon-A1DE

  • Recommended by AnonBiblophile
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: The tumultuous 2nd year has ended, and their relationships have changed. The Service Club is revived How will they now interact in this new everyday they've made? How will their relationship blossom? What will happen to the people around them? A somewhat slow, yet fulfilling romance between two antisocial dorks with lots of introspection and fluff.
  • Comments: A post series fanfiction that's mostly centered on Hachiman and Yukino exploring their newfound relationship and their resulting growth as they fumble their way through the various unexpected experiences of romance. While it is primarily a W.A.F.F. type of fanfiction, the story also manages some surprisingly insightful developments of the characters, not just of the main pair but also the various supporting cast while also touching on various issues that were alluded to or were left unexplored in the original work. Also provides plentiful amounts of Hachiman/Yukino fluff moments, supported by very strong writing and culminating in their taking their relationship to the next level which has been posted up as a separate story.

My Tinder Experience is about as Genuine as I Expected by SeconDreams

  • Recommended by Arusefu
  • Status: Dormant; last updated January 2018
  • Synopsis: Hikigaya Hachiman makes a Tinder account.
  • Comments: At first it seems like a generic fanfiction but soon enough the author's capacities are revealed. Not only their portrait of the characters feels natural, they also are capable of bringing forth the quirks and capacities of the Service Club individually and as a group. Their flaws come into play merging really well with their strong points to give us a very good portrait of Hachiman, Yukino and Yui. It's a comedy which is a breathe of fresh air amidst so much drama, highly recommended. -Arusefu.

Only a Matter of Time by bronze v lee sin

  • Recommended by Genius JJ
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: Shortly after his third year at Sobu High begins, Hachiman finds out that he is terminally ill. While the others are moving on to the next stage in life, he's moving on to the final stage of his. How will this affect him and everyone around him?
  • Comments: If you're looking for a good Hachiman X Yukino fic, you're just in luck. Despite this being the author's first fanfiction story, it's actually very well-written. The story is told from Hachiman's perspective and goes into great detail on how he struggles with his illness, along with focusing on his growing relationship with Yukino. Definitely give this fic a try.

As Expected, My Highschool Girl Debut is Wrong! by ZeroXSEED & GoukaRyuu

  • Recommended by Firkraag
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: A year after terrible car accident, Hikigaya Hachi, a freshman at Sobu High, has her high school debut. AU fic.
  • Link to Fanfiction.net: [1]
  • Comments: Hikigaya is a girl. As you might expect, that changes quite a lot. Though Hikigaya Hachi is completely different person, from the one we all know (and love (to shout at in frustrations (or support))). While not particularly free of romantic tension, it's hard to tell on the particular shipping, or even which team Hachi would end up playing for, if you know what I mean. I would add more, but I'm afraid to spoil it. Well-written supporting cast of canon characters. – Firkraag.

Unmade by Sou BU

  • Recommended by Plague 11787
  • Status: Dormant; last updated October 2020
  • Synopsis: Graduation marks the end of youth and the end of the Service Club. The high school romantic comedy never plays out. Years pass, and a neurotic Hachiman serves as a detective in Tokyo amidst rising crime rates. He finds himself embroiled in a lawsuit after a confrontation with a felon turns deadly. If things weren't chaotic enough, his assigned lawyer was… Yukinoshita?
  • Comments: Hachiman is a no nonsense detective who still retains his cynical charm. The characters are well portrayed and there's a solid crime plot in addition to brief, but fulfilling moments of fluff between Yukino and Hachiman. Additionally, the author is very active in updating and interacting with reviewers.

I Exist - On the Mountain of Lies by ZeroXSEED

  • Recommended by Lucky Flanker 13
  • Status: Dormant; last updated February 2021
  • Synopsis: They began going out, and their relationship didn't change at first. But soon they found their own comfort in a relationship built on a mountain of lies. Hachi/Ebin
  • Comments: All I can say is that Zero did it again, and made me fall in love with Hachiman and Ebina's relationship. Good work!

Watching My Youth Romantic Comedy Is Terrible, As Expected by superlance909''

  • Recommended by: VictorioMWolff-Haddock
  • Status: Ongoing
  • Synopsis: Hachiman finds a box of DVDs in his room, along with some instructions. But he refuses to follow them! A bored god decides the DVDs must be watched, no matter what! After a few days, everyone is dragged into a theatre. On the screen is a show called... My Youth Romantic Comedy Is Wrong, As I Expected? What the hell is this?
  • Comments: everyone is in-character for post-season 3 characters. and Hikigaya neglecting the instruction to gather the audiences is really funny, alongside how the God gave him a throne to sit on the theatre.

My Trans Dimensional Overpowered Protagonist Harem Comedy Is Wrong, as Expected by Sage_Of_Eyes
  • Crossover with: Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?
  • Recommended by: Universalperson
  • Status: Ongoing (Book 1 finished, Book 2 in progress)
  • Synopsis: Hikigaya Hachiman, shortly after an odd Valentine's day, finds himself in a new world filled with magic, monsters, and gods. Though he knows not how he got there, he knows that the only way back to his home is through the Dungeon. Armed with a few tricks, a wholly unnatural affinity for magic, and his own, self-serving mindset, he just might manage to achieve his goal. Well, if he ever manages to get a party.
  • Comments: The alternative title would probably be something like "Is it Wrong to be a Snarky, Genre Savvy Teacher in the Dungeon?" Because that's what Hachiman becomes. Part of the fanfic's charm is Hachiman's narration; as already mentioned, he is gloriously snarky and genre savvy...but he's also an Unreliable Narrator. Which leads to a lot of complex characterization both for Hachiman and the Danmachi cast. Also plenty of humor, plenty of sad moments, plenty of entertainment and plenty of awesome from people you wouldn't expect that kind of awesome from. —Universalperson.

  • Comments: Hikigaya's Quirk, 108 Skills, is practically a Psuedo-All for One, but the fact that the copied Quirks only have 1/108 effectiveness of the original Quirks render most of them useless in combat, leading to bullying and later developing his cynicism. But one day, he is one of the Sludge Villain's victim alongside Bakugo and touching All Might when he rescue them, giving him both Sludge Villain's Quirk AND the Stockpilling power-half of One for All.....
