History Fanfic / YoungJusticeWatchesDeathBattle

* AdaptationalAlternateEnding: "Pikachu vs. Blanka" is the first episode to have a completely different winner, ending with Pikachu defeating Blanka, as opposed to the original where Blanka won by ''eating'' Pikachu.

* AlternateEnding: In their battle, Spawn still wins, but he takes pity on Kratos and (with some coaxing from Pandora), gives him the one thing the gods couldn't: freedom from his horrid past.

* AdaptationalExpansion: The research for some fights is more detailed than it was in the series, often going into detail over nearly everything about the characters so that the team and League can learn as much as they can. The author also makes it a point to add in calculations that weren't in the original battles for feats done by the characters, whether or not the feats were acknowledged in the canon fight.

** Kratos is considered by the team and even the League to be stronger than Superman. Though they are referring to their version (Earth-16), who hasn't displayed levels of strength near what Kratos has shown.

''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11966852/1/Young-Justice-Watches-Death-Battle Young Justice Watches Death Battle]]'' is a MST-style reaction fanfic written by [[https://www.fanfiction.net/u/7254076/Firestorm808 Firestorm808]] in which the members of the team and the Justice League (following the end of ''WesternAnimation/YoungJustice'' season 1) watch and react to episodes of ''WebAnimation/DeathBattle''.

** A [[RunningGag frequent occurrence]] is Wally bemoaning how damn near every combatant in the show that has SuperSpeed is much faster than him. (Perhaps ironically, the "Wally West vs. Archie Sonic" Death Battle all but states that he has the potential to become the fastest Flash of them all.)

** A [[RunningGag frequent occurrence]] is Wally bemoaning how damn near every combatant in the show that has SuperSpeed is much faster than him. (It remains to be seen if this will com to a head in the "Wally West vs. Archie Sonic" Death Battle, where it is all but stated that he has the potential to be the fastest Flash of them all.)

Story currently has (disregarding the prologue) 23 episodes and three interludes so far.

* YouRemindMeOfX: The team and League lampshade how the combatants outside of DC are very similar to either themselves or their enemies. Green Arrow calls Metal Sonic "Amazo 2.0" thanks to his absurd power replication abilities.

Story currently has (disregarding the prologue) 22 episodes and three interludes so far.

* ThrowTheDogABone: Contrasting his original rundown in the series (which was just a large TheReasonYouSuckSpeech and an overall TakeThat to his character), Michelangelo's rundown here is far more fair to his character and goes over the benefits of his fighting style as well as the noble aspects of his personality rather than just treat him like a ButtMonkey [[TheStoner stoner]].

* ThereAreNoTherapists: [[AvertedTrope Averted]] with Batman. He has Alfred psychologically evaluate him and provide therapy to avoid the issues that would come with not seeing a shrink after all he's been through.

Contrasting most reaction fics for ''Death Battle'', the author alters and re-writes the scripts for the episodes. While this is done to correct research errors he found in the original episodes, the primary reason behind it is to avoid the copyright infringement problems that most MST fics tend to suffer from.

* AdaptationalBadass: Thanks to the redone research, some characters have much better showings and feats compared to their original fights. Sonic (and later Metal Sonic by extension), have light-speed movement in their original first battles in the show compared to their hyper-sonic speeds in the canonical fights.

* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: The story starts out very much like your typical "characters react to another series" story. As it goes on, dialogue of the episodes is altered and more emphasis on research and reactions to the characters as both people and combatants takes hold.

Story currently has (disregarding the prologue) nineteen episodes and three interludes so far.

* SheIsAllGrownUp: Wally and Dick both have this reaction upon seeing the adult [[Franchise/DCAnimatedUniverse DCAU]] Zatanna in the "Batman vs. Spider-Man" episode.

* LighterAndSofter: Some of the battles have less gruesome bloodshed compared to the originals. "Kratos vs. Spawn" ends with Kratos being redeemed rather than impaled through the head while "Mario vs. Sonic" sees Mario being jettisoned into space in [[VideoGame/SuperSmashBros statue form]] rather than ripped to shreds by Sonic's spin attack.

* DamselInDistress: This gets lampshaded at the start of the "Zelda vs. Peach" fight. Diana never understood why this is common in western folklore, with Clark stating that Lois doesn't really do anything to avert the stereotype.
