Perspective Flip / Fan Works

• The main premise of the One Piece Fan Fic series Rerum Danarae is showing the world of One Piece from the side of the Navy, and Gol D. Andrea's more or less blind stumbling in between the lines of Pirates and Marines until finding her place.
• The final installment of the Sith Academy Fan Fic series is a surprisingly good rendition of The Phantom Menace, largely from the perspective of Darth Maul, which makes the whole story come together much better than in the original - despite being a series in which Maul had been Obi-Wan's lover for over a year before the story takes place. (Obviously, this counts as a P.O.V. Sequel as well.)
• There is a Warhammer 40,000 Horus Heresy fic where the Traitor legions are the heroes and the Loyalists turned the Emperor against them.
• Extremely common in Hunger Games fanfiction, since the canon work is told in first person POV from Katniss' perspective. You can find the stories retold from the POV of Peeta, Rue, Cinna, Prim, Haymitch, Clove, Foxface, Johanna, Cashmere, Beetee even minor tributes and peacekeepers.
• The Static Shock fanfic Jimmy's Visit With Dr. Franklin retells the events of "Jimmy" through Jimmy's perspective.
• Plankton's Eye View is this. Even the title well implies this trope at work.
• In Horseshoes and Hand Grenades, there's a fanfic known as Tears to Shed that revolves around Gentaro's point of view in regards to the first 13 chapters of the story.
• The My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic fanfic Heart of Gold, Feathers of Steel retells the events of Griffon the Brush Off from Gilda's perspective.
• The Pokémon: The Series fanfic Travels of the Trifecta does this when integrating anime episodes into the story, because it portrays the stories from Paul's perspective rather than Ash's.
• The Last Ringbearer details the War of the Ring from the perspective of Mordor, with the assumption that Tolkien's account is written from Gondor's perspective. That is, the democratic, technological, human-populated republic of Mordor is fighting a defensive war which was started by the snobby, arrogant, supremacist elves, who view Mordor as a threat to their power base and plan to destroy the republic and keep Middle Earth in Medieval Stasis forever, using the human kingdoms of Gondor and Rohan as Unwitting Pawns, of course.
• Another Tolkienist example is Natalya Vasilieva's The Black Book of Arda, which is the Perspective Flipped Silmarillion. It has the same premise as the previous book, but with added Wangst and gothy-ness. It had a very significant subcultural impact in Russia, basically creating a new subculture halfway between tolkienists/LARPers and goths.
• Mostly via Rukhash's character, in Splint we get to see some of the events of The Lord of the Rings (and what came after) from the Orcs' point-of-view. As a result, they come off as being a lot more sympathetic. That being said, Rukhash does eventually acknowledge that they were still technically 'the bad guys' of the story; they're just not as homogeneously or irredeemably evil as most people think and they were negatively affected by the war as well. They come across less as Always Chaotic Evil and more as Tragic Villains Trapped in Villainy; even if they wanted to stop fighting, which many of them did by the end, the Dark Lord wasn't exactly going to just let them walk away and no one else would accept them. A lot of them also grew up knowing nothing but war and serving the Dark Lord, never having a chance to lead a different life, not to mention their master was constantly telling them how if they lost the war, Men would hunt them all down to last sprog without mercy. Ultimately, they are just as much victims of Sauron's tyranny as the rest of Middle-earth.
• The Lion's Pride details the talk between Harry Potter and Rufus Scrimgeour from the latter's point of view. As such, Rufus seems more of a Reasonable Authority Figure trying to do his job and win the war while Harry seems like a churlish self-absorbed child who's been thoroughly brainwashed by Dumbledore (hence why Rufus uses "Dumbledore's man" as an insult).
• In the Worm x Dishonored crossover fanfic, A Change of Pace, Glory Girl still acts a lot like her canon counterpart, including the flying dumpster things, but because Taylor is allied with her we see how she looks after Taylor more. Likewise, we see how the Undersiders look from her angle, with Tattletale pushing buttons being more personal and why so many people find her annoying.
• In the Spec Ops: The Line/The Familiar of Zero crossover fic Zulu Squad no Tsukaima, several of the characters' backstories in Dubai are told from the perspective of the Damned 33rd, given what goes on in the video game, they are understandably aghast at Captain Walker's actions.
• Shadow and Rose is (mostly) a retelling of Dragon Age: Origins from the point of view of Alistair.
• In the Smallville fic En Tempus Veritas, while Jimmy’s dream sequence in the "Noir" equivalent is essentially the same as in canon, additional scenes reveal that Clark and Lois’s dream counterparts fell for each other and were actually the ones in love without changing anything else Jimmy experienced.
• The Final Fantasy X fancomic Guardian is a retelling of Yuna's journey from the perspective of Lulu, starting with Lulu volunteering herself as the Final Aeon and jumping back to her own childhood to explain how she became a guardian twice before age twenty, her life on Besaid with Yuna, Wakka, and Chappu, and how she feels about Tidus showing up.
• Landing Day: The story is Independence Day told from the perspective of the alien invaders. Events from the film are replicated, including the first Curbstomp Battle, the operating scene, the "release me" scene, the computer virus messing up the aliens' systems, and the final battle.
• The Skyhold Academy Yearbook series of Dragon Age fics has one of these for its second story. The Year of the Unicorn and the Emerald Princess is a rehash of the first story - except this time, it's told through the point of view of three of the students as they exchange text and Facebook messages throughout the school year.
• Agents Acquired, a side volume to the Twice Upon an Age series of Dragon Age: Inquisition stories, is both this and an Elsewhere Fic. The point of view characters are various agents of the Inquisition, showing what their lives were like before and after meeting the Heralds of Andraste.
• There is a MAD animatic that flips the POV of the first arc of Higurashi: When They Cry onto Rena. It shows her viewpoint on Keiichi's Sanity Slippage and ends with her failed Cooldown Hug and death.
• Michael Aquino:
  • Morlindale is presented as a series of letters between Melkor, Sauron, the Witch-King of Angmar, and the Blue Wizard Pallando. It basically retells the story of The Lord of the Rings, and parts of the Silmarillion, with Melkor and his followers as rebels against the cruel, uncaring Valar.
  • The Dark Side, a Fanfic sequel to Star Wars: A New Hope, before the others had come out, featuring Darth Vader as the good guy.)
• Citadel of the Heart:
  • Diary of an Analog, a Fix Fic based on Digimon Adventure 02, primarily takes place from the perspective of T.K.'s first person view of things. However, several chapters in the fic explicitly do not take place from any particular perspective, and showcase events from which T.K. would be unaware of otherwise.
• Hail to the Jewels in the Lotus focuses on depicting the Origin System through the eyes of characters other than the Tenno, including the Grineer, Corpus, and Solaris.
• In Blood! Rusty AU, Rusty becomes a BloodClan cat instead of a ThunderClan cat. BloodClan is initially presented as a close-knit group of downtrodden city cats, not just a group of blood-thirsty savages. In contrast, they see the four forest Clans as superstitious elitists obsessed with bloodlines and territory over anything.
• The Things by Peter Watts tells the story of the film from the perspective of the alien. It's a millennia-old empathic shape-shifting intergalactic ambassador who can spread its consciousness across separated parts and is actually just as disturbed by Earth life as we are of it.
• In Amazing Fantasy, the story frequently uses this to get inside of other characters' heads to tell different parts of the narrative, such as others' reactions to Izuku's new spider powers, Peter's struggles to get by while Izuku is at school, and what's happening behind other people's backs.
• Through the Eyes of Anon-a-Miss tells the story of the Equestria Girls Holiday Comic from the perspective of the true Anon-A-Miss culprits, and explores why they did what they did.
• The Supernatural and Danny Phantom crossover story Amphisbaena shows the reader what the Winchesters look like from the perspective of a possessed person. The view we get is...not pretty, to say the least.
• Araceil's Untameable depicts Luo Binghe in a much more creepy light, with his attempts to take care of his teacher unsettling the man instead of being portrayed as cute.
• Snapshots is a series of four fanfics based on Splatoon that follows Marina, Pearl, Marie and Callie across a three year period covering the first two games and Octo Expansion. Events from canon are recreated with additional context from the viewpoint character of the given fic, and several fic-exclusive events are repeated throughout the series, each with a different protagonist's view on the situation.
• My Perfect World, Shattered's big twist is that it is the events of Sonic the Hedgehog, as told by Dr. Robotnik.
• In left your mark on me, Word of God confirms Luo Binghe is acting the classical male power fantasy in a stallion novel, marrying the Shizun who used to be so cruel to him only to learn she's quite vulnerable after all, wanting to protect and cherish her in spite of her devolving in a brainless haremette walking right in poisoning attempts to give him angst fodder. Thing is, the story is written from Shen Qingqiu's viewpoint — and not only she thoroughly despises Luo Binghe, she's so depressed and bored from being taken away from her duties as a Peak Lord to be reduced to a consort among hundreds, that she willingly ingests the poison until the latest attempt succeeds.
