It's more that you just can't write fanfic. You can't. It's this horrendously depressing story that ends on the closest thing to a high note possible. Anything before can only show the same endless misery, and anything afterwards would only slip back into that endless misery. The world is dying, and the human evil the wikipedia page focuses on is ultimately inconsequential.
That they're inevitably missing important points (such as it is not fucking another world you little twits! IT WAS NOT SUBTLE IT'S FUCKING EARTH HATE YOU ALL) and butchering the themes (rapist apologist powers go!) is minor in comparison to the fact you cannot write fanfic about it, period. It just doesn't work.
Doesn't this show that Now and Then, Here and There is popular enough for fanfiction? Also, there's fanfiction on everything nowadays, so are you surprised?
Besides, I think we all knew that human mentality is declining.
But you can't write fanfic for it! You can't! There is no room for fanfic! You can't write about before, because the story starts with the status quo and anything prior would be more of the exact same suicide-inducing misery. And you certainly can't write afterwards because the series amply covered the fact that life is futile and meaningless already, and to strip away the short bit of not-total-misery people have at the end is to ruin it.
