4What do you get when you fuse ''Manga/ElfenLied'' with as many crossovers as possible? A violent, angsty tale of destruction, racism, and self-sacrifice, right? No, instead you get ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7444084/Robo-Bando Robo Bando]]'', written by [=Robofan101=]. What started out as a simple what-if where Bando became a full-fledged robot mutated to a fanfic about supposedly saving {{the multiverse}} from Lucy but in reality, writing as many {{Take That}}s as humanly possible. Politically incorrect and BloodierAndGorier than the original somehow, this troll {{crack fic}} is either pure MindScrew or SoBadItsGood but is definitely the ''Fanfic/MyImmortal'' of ''Elfen Lied''. Replaces goths and SATAINISTS complaining about PREPS and listening to My Chemical Romance with constant fighting, insane amounts of references and an cyborg who thinks justice is murdering anyone that criticizes him. The story is fully up on Website/FanFictionDotNet with 15 chapters.

7!!This fanfiction provides examples of:
8
9* ActionGirl: Pedobear kicks even 'God's' ass.
10* AscendedExtra: Bando is the protagonist, meanwhile he was just a secondary character in'' Manga/ElfenLied''.
11* AntiClimax: Every fight expect for the ones in Chapters 4 and 6 between Lucy and Batman respectively
12* AntiHero: Robo Bando is a clear VillainProtagonist
13** [[spoiler: Creator/GrantMorrison and Hdoug are scale 5, both have no problem killing innocent people and causing MindScrew to their enemies.]]
14*** Hell, everyone in this story.
15%%* BigBad: Subverted by Lucy since she does little in the plot.
16%%* CainAndAbel: Robo Bando and his younger brother Brodo.
17* TheCameo: Ebony of ''My Immortal'' fame shows in Chapter 11 making out with Draco just to be murdered by Robo Bando for saying this to his companions: "You just dumb PREPS trying to ruin us SATIANISTS".
18* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome:
19** Jack Thaddus kills all the trolls and escapes at the end of Chapter 8 to never be mention again. Subverted by Kurama who was PutOnABus in Chapter 3 just to reappear in Chapter 9 dead in Peru for some reason.
20** Creator/TomClancy shows up in Chapter 9 as a special adviser and seem set to be a recurring ally only to vanish after that chapter.
21* CrackFic: Under the reviews, several guys asked the author what is he smoking.
22* CurbStompBattle: The Chapter 5 fight between Robo Bando and WesternAnimation/CatDog is one, [=CatDog=] [[spoiler: destorys Doug's hometown like it was nothing and billed as a EldritchAbomination]] just to get kill in two sentences after showing up.
23** The 'fight' between Tim Buckley and Robo Bando takes up the whole of Chapter 12 which is the shortest chapter. Its only about 300 words and [[spoiler:the 'fight' consist of Buckley powering up just to die brutally one sentence without even doing any attacks.]]
24* DarkFic: Zigzagged. It may be BloodierAndGorier but compared to canon, there are no TearJerkers due to the plot'a lack of emotional depth and zero character development.
25** [[spoiler: Nicktoons' [=CatDog=] is a giant killer monster that Nicktoon's Doug hometown of Bluffington brutally in Chapter 5.]]
26* DemotedToExtra: Everyone from Manga/ElfenLied but Bando and arguably Nana are reduced to bit players.
27* DisproportionateReward: Doug, yes Nickelodeon's Doug swears to become Robo Bando's slave and is renamed HDoug even though all he did was not kill him on sight despite wanting to.
28* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: The first three chapters do fit canon somewhat despite their horrible grammar and plot. Chapter 1 is an altered Episode 3 with Bando being converted to a full-flegded Franchise/RoboCop / Franchise/{{Terminator}} knockoff. Chapter 2 is a WhatIf Bando was in Lucy and Nana's fight in Episode 4. Finally Chapter 3 is a WhatIf Bando killed the main cast.
29%%* EldritchAbomination: [=CatDog=], dear god [=CatDog=] in Chatper 5.
30* HitlerAteSugar: Everything that HDoug likes is treated like this, especially comic writer Chuck Austen, who Robo Bando violently tortures and murders just for being HDoug's favorite writer in Chapter 11.
31* MonsterOfTheWeek: One can make the argument that once the story reaches chapter 5 it devolves to this until the ending with the villains getting attention depending it seems on how much the author wants to demonizes them.
32** Chapter 11 is a rare example of a 'Monster of the Paragraph' since the villain goes from this order: Frank Miller, Mark Millar, Chatoyance (one of the writers of ''Fanfic/TheConversionBureau''), Chuck Austen, the police, Lynn Okamoto, creator of Manga/ElfenLied, Slenderpedobearman, [[Franchise/TheSlenderManMythos Slender Man]], Pedobear and finally Tim Buckley, creator of the webcomic Ctrl+Alt+Del.
33* NoNameGiven: The Unknown Man from canon.
34* OmniscientMoralityLicense: Professor Booster from ''VideoGame/CaveStory'' or N*** Booster as he is called in the story. He viewed himself as a heroic mentor to Robo Bando despite killing Series/DoctorWho in a NoodleIncident, curb stomping the Party when they first met, constantly racially insulting them and for being a JerkAss to everyone but Pedobear and Obama.
35* OriginalCharacter: Theres Bando's evil brother Brodo and Good Nerd Doctor. The fic has very few OCs.
36* PlotTumor: The whole TakeThat against the comic industry took precedent by chapter 8 over the hunt for Lucy leading to the MindScrew that's Chapter 11.
37* RetCon: There are many throughout the fic, but a glaringly one is apparently Robo Bando said in Chapter 11 that he killed the Unknown Man back in Chapter 6, despite the Unknown Man not showing up at all.
38* SamusIsAGirl: 4chan's Pedobear is apparently, though not named yet.
39** Its obvious that Pedobear is [[spoiler: Tomoyo from Clannad.]]
40*** Confirmed by the story.
41* SatelliteCharacter: The whole Shitficant Seven webcomics have no personalities and role in the story expect to be Lucy's Dragons However subverted by [[spoiler: Tim Buckley creator of webcomic Ctrl+Alt+Del murdered the other six and Mookie of Dominic Deegan fame for a power boost to defeat Robo Bando]].
42* SpearCarrier: All the minor characters don't have names but are numbered such cop 1, boy 2 and Comic-Contard 4 unless they are from somewhere else.
43* TakeThat:There so many in this fic they need a list:
44** The fic attacks Creator/GrantMorrison's writing in Chapter 8 by Billy Mays Ghost sarcastically praising his stories.
45** Chapter 5 is one to Nickelodeon's Doug and Catdog.
46** Chapter 6 and 8 is one to Batman, Sonichu, and Christoper Weston Chandler.
47** Chapter 4 has one towards Japan.
48** Chapter 9 is one towards Obama, Creator/TomClancy, several webcomics, WebVideo/TheAmazingAtheist and ''VideoGame/CaveStory''
49** Chapter 10 is a giant screw you to Creator/JoeQuesada and has one towards Reebook and Music/LinkinPark
50** Chapter 11 is the king of this with ones at Manga/ElfenLied, Creator/FrankMiller, Creator/GarthEnnis, Creator/MarkMillar, Website/YouTube, Comic Con, Website/TVTropes, Website/ChannelAwesome, and the police.
51** Chapter 12 is a giant fuck you to Tim Buckley.
52** Chapter 13 is one to hipsters and Franchise/MyLittlePony.
53** Chapter 14 is one to ''VideoGame/CaveStory'', Mitt Romney and in all things Series/SesameStreet.
54** Chapter 15 is one to UsefulNoyes/JoeBiden, Website/SomethingAwful, WebVideo/TheAngryVideoGameNerd, geek culture, Website/YouTube, Ray William Johnson and the story itself.
55** Left wing politics are constantly attacked and mocked.
56** HDoug is one giant one to geek culture and nerds.
57* TheAhnold: Bando obviously but up to eleven in this fic.
58* TrollFic: or a really bad straight fanfic
59* VillainProtagonist: Robo Bando is a OmnicidalManiac that's directly responsible for destroying two universes already, including his own. He's more likely to murder you for hating ''Franchise/ToyStory'' than for killing civilians.
60* VillainDecay: Lucy suffers this badly to the point that [[spoiler: hdoug kills her by just sneaking up on her and stabbing her heart with a #2 pencil, all in one short sentence.]] It so bad that Robo Bando decides to focus on the King of Website/YouTube instead of her. [[spoiler: Turns out that he was unknowingly aiding Lucy.]]
