There's a real rabbit hole for 'Danganronpa' and 'Undertale' crossovers, and finding that specific pairing is surprisingly doable if you know where to look. AO3 is the powerhouse, obviously; the tagging system there means you can filter for 'Nagito Komaeda/Sans (Undertale)' and get a solid list. I've found some genuinely inventive ones there that explore how their respective brands of fatalism and fourth-wall-breaking humor could clash or mesh.
That said, you can't sleep on Tumblr. A lot of writers use it for shorter drabbles and headcanon threads, and the reblog culture helps the really good snippets surface. You have to dig through the tags and hope the writer cross-posted to a more readable platform, but the raw ideas are there. For a while, I followed a blog that did nothing but 'Sansdra' AUs, and some of those concepts bled into longer fics elsewhere.
I'd steer clear of Fanfiction.net for this niche. The categorization is too broad, and searching is a nightmare. Wattpad might have a few, but the quality varies wildly, and they're often buried under mountains of other crossover content. AO3's search specificity is your best friend here, hands down. I always sort by kudos to find the community favorites first.

Honestly, I think you're mixing up a couple of different fandom memes there. The idea of Nagito Komaeda from 'Danganronpa' and Sans from 'Undertale' in a fic is such a specific niche it's almost a thought experiment. I haven't seen a full-blown crossover that seriously integrates both worlds' lore in a long-form story.
Most of what pops up tends to be crackfic or short humor pieces where their similarly nihilistic and pun-loving personalities bounce off each other in a void. There was one I vaguely remember called 'Hope Judgement' or something like that? It tried to be serious, throwing Sans into the killing game, but it got abandoned after a few chapters.
The real crossover depth usually gets funneled into bigger ensemble casts, like those massive 'Undertale'/'Danganronpa' school AUs. You might find them as side pairings in those. Looking for a dedicated, plot-heavy Nagito/Sans story that does justice to both canoes feels like a lost cause.

I’ve seen a few of these floating around and honestly, they almost always fall flat because the writers treat it like a joke. The ones that land have to take the core psychological horror from both sides seriously. Nagito’s obsession with hope and despair isn't just quirky—it’s a pathological, self-destructive belief system. Sans’s nihilistic depression and hidden power come from a place of profound fatigue and responsibility. A plot that meshes those two forms of despair? That's got potential.
Instead of just plopping them in a room together, use the mechanics. What if Nagito, in his quest for 'ultimate hope,' becomes fascinated by the anomaly? He sees the endless resets not as a tragedy, but as the perfect breeding ground for hope—through relentless, brutal conflict. Sans, aware of the timelines, might see Nagito as a uniquely dangerous kind of monster: one who welcomes the suffering. The best story I skimmed had Sans trying to judge Nagito in a Genocide route, only to find Nagito's LOVE skyrocketing with glee because the despair was 'beautiful.' It was chilling.
Most attempts just have them making puns about hope, which misses everything. The plot needs the bleak, meta-textual weight of 'Undertale' crashing into the twisted, manufactured tragedy of 'Danganronpa.' Focus on their roles as observers broken by their worlds, not their surface-level personalities.

They don't exactly share a universe, do they? It's a crossover that shouldn't work, but somehow it does. The common thread I keep seeing is a shared obsession with hope, but from two completely cracked mirrors. Sans judges you over and over, a jaded observer who's seen the worst outcomes. Nagito manufactures despair to fuel his twisted version of hope, believing in a grand narrative. Fics often turn this into a battle of philosophies, with Sans's lazy pessimism clashing against Nagito's frenetic, self-destructive optimism.
What really gets me are the ones where Nagito's luck cycle becomes a meta-narrative tool. Sans, with his time-loop awareness from 'Undertale' resets, might recognize a pattern he can't break. The emotion isn't just angst; it's a profound, cosmic loneliness. They're both aware of larger systems—game mechanics, storytelling tropes—and are trapped by them. The best stories I've found use that to create a weird companionship, two broken people who are the only ones who can see the cracks in their own realities. It's less about romance and more about two different kinds of madness understanding each other.
The tone leans heavily into existential dread, but there's always this undercurrent of black comedy. Sans's deadpan delivery against Nagito's unhinged monologues writes itself, really.

The unexpected, weirdly specific crossover potential between 'Danganronpa' and 'Undertale' via these two characters is kind of fascinating. Nagito with his relentless, self-destructive hope and Sans with his tired, apathetic pessimism—it’ disability a battle of extremes. You could have Sans’ deadpan, observant eye constantly cutting through Nagito’s grandiose, flowery monologues about hope and talent, reducing them to their bleak core. Nagito would probably be fascinated and horrified by Sans’ lack of motivation, seeing it as the ultimate despair to be overcome, which in turn would just annoy Sans even more. I read one where Sans just kept teleporting away mid-rant, leaving Nagito talking to an empty room. The comedy writes itself.
Darker takes could dig into their shared self-worth issues, though. Nagito hates himself because he’s ‘trash’ surrounded by talent; Sans probably hates himself for failing his brother and the timeline. They could enable each other’s worst impulses, or one could accidentally trigger a breakthrough by applying their own twisted logic to the other’s problems. Like Nagito trying to ‘save’ Sans by convincing him true hope is embracing the pointlessness, or Sans finally snapping and forcing Nagito to see the simple, un-magical reality of consequences.

This pairing always felt like someone trying to force two puzzle pieces from different boxes to click, which honestly is where most of its weird, specific tension comes from. Nagito's whole thing is a compulsive, self-flagellating worship of hope, while Sans is defined by a weary, detached understanding of futility after countless resets. Throwing them together creates this bizarre emotional pressure cooker. The core conflict isn't really romantic jealousy or external threats—it's about two utterly incompatible worldviews colliding. Nagito might see Sans's apathy as the ultimate 'despair' to overcome, a supreme challenge for his hope, while Sans would probably just find the whole performance exhausting and vaguely pitiable. The fanfics that hook me explore that push-pull: Nagito's manic devotion constantly meeting a wall of tired sarcasm, forcing him to either escalate or, in rare good stories, actually introspect. Sans, meanwhile, might be reluctantly drawn into caring about someone so actively self-destructive, battling his own learned helplessness. It's less about sparks and more about philosophical abrasion.
Of course, a lot of fics just go for crack or pure smut, which is fun in its own way, but the few that dig into the dynamic's inherent dissonance end up being these strangely melancholic character studies. They're not even about fixing each other, because both characters are fundamentally broken in ways that define them. It's more about two damaged people creating a new, weirdly stable kind of dysfunction together, where Nagito's chaos finds a deadpan audience and Sans's detachment finds something bizarrely, persistently hopeful to observe. That's the heart of it, I think.
