''Daria'' fanfiction or fan art that shows the series characters after the conclusion of the TV movie, ''[[Is It College Yet?]],'' which was the final ''Daria'' show considered to be in canon. Most stories in this vein concern the ''Daria'' cast's time in college, marriages, childrearing, and beyond. Other stories can be considered [[Nextgen]], dealing with either the younger children seen in the show (i.e. [[Tad Gupty|Tad]] and [[Tricia Gupty]] and [[Link]]) or the projected children of canon characters (such as [[Heather Morgendorffer|Heather]] and [[Damsel Morgendorffer]] from [[The Heather/Damsel Chronicles]]).▼

Important examples of post-canon fanfiction include [[Richard Lobinske]]'s [[Falling Into College]] series and [[Ruthless Bunny]]'s "[[Bed and Breakfast Man]]."▼
In the mid-2010s, [[Glenn Eichler]] and [[Susie Lewis]] created three pieces of semi-canon post-canon: "[[Daria Morgendorffer's Greatest Retail Regret]]", "[[What I Think About Valentine's Day]]", and "[[Catching Up With The Daria Gang]]". The latter, showing the cast in 2017, has influenced post-canon fanworks - as it is the 'word of God' on the future - but almost twenty years of post-canon fanworks existed before that and took many different approaches.

Post-canon fics are sometimes used to explore different genres to the original show, including more fantastic ones, without having to fully go [[alternate universe]]: "[http://thepaperpusher.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=29678 Politricks are not for Kids]" by [[Brian Taylor (author)|Brian Taylor]] (political humour), "[[Drive]]" by [[The Angst Guy]] (hard sci-fi). Others explore either Daria's college life or the possible adult futures of the main cast ("[http://thepaperpusher.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=466088#p466088 Reunion]" by [[Hyrin]]"), or to carry out [[shipper]] pairings in adulthood ("[https://archiveofourown.org/works/34866 Reunited and It Feels So Good]" by [[Person]]).
And others show a character's life going drastically downhill after Lawndale High for the purposes of [[angst]]! (lots of [[TAG]] fics)
