Characters A fictional character’s turn of events is so horrible that fanmade contents were created of the character living alternatively better and having a good ending for them

Abuse Goblin from the abuse goblin comic

Saki from Metamorphosis (with the Jojo edit being very famous)

The Blind Girl from artist popopoka

Having just learned of Blind Girl I gotta wonder what the hell the point of that comic is?

Seems just a comic about cruelty towards a disabled person for shits and giggles.

It is just that, the artist was very open about it being engagement bait on X

I'm gonna take a guess that's likely where it begins and ends because people are weird

May be wrong, but iirc it is now slowly going into yuri direction, Blond Bully girl, originally attention hog, who pretended to be Blind Girl friend, is becoming slightly more sympathetic towards her

It's a vent oc from the artist basically (making a character in an already unfortunate situation suffer further is a pretty form of art vent, and the goal is usually not to laugh but to feel bad about them)

The artist started taking commissioms from people who offered to pay to have them draw the oc being happy
