History FanFic / TheInfiniteLoops

* EpicFail: On occasion, Twilight attempts to earn a ''different'' Cutie Mark than her starburst design. It ''never works.''

----> '''Sleipner:''' It effectively never existed. Any fused Loops you had with that universe have now never happened. Aside from the forced system–wide reset of the Loops the collapse triggered, even the divine operators of Yggdrasil have no memory of it beyond an almost completely corrupted file of the 'jumpstart' attempt with a fused Loop that ended in its destruction.

--->"Gilda, I'm an Anchor. Which means I've been awake for every single loop. Sure I've gotten powerful, but among Anchors and other long time loopers the truism is ‘with great power comes great insanity.’ I've been better than most, but even I've had moments where I slipped. You'll find this out yourself, but imagine everyone around you had a disease. They remember everything up to a certain day. After that, they can't keep a new memory past a full day. They just keep forgetting and reliving the same day, over and over again. Only you remember and grow. How long before you stopped seeing them as friends out of frustration? How many days till you stopped seeing them as people at all? How many weeks till you started meddling, manipulating them for what is 'best'? How many months till you started smashing them in frustration that they can't bucking remember anything?!"

* RetGone: An entire universe was destroyed atht the conceptual level because of data corruption. It's implied that it's not the first to go that way...

** [[AnimePuellaMagiMadokaMagica Madoka's]] universe is currently hosted on her staff, which means if she ever loses the staff it might cease to exist.

* GoMadFromTheRevelation: [[Manga/{{Naruto}} Sakura Haruno]]'s reaction to the Time Loops. She's now the TropeNamer for 'Sakura Syndrome'.

* WhatAnIdiot: A non looping Blueblood attempted a palace coup against a more-or-less united front of Celestia, Luna, Discord, Cadance, Chrysalis, Sombra, Princess Twilight, Shining Armor (ascended to Alicorn), and Spike (as an Elder Dragon). Would have been TooDumbToLive, except he survives because they don't think he's worth the minimal effort to curb-stomp.

* BotheringByTheBook: Harry Potter ''loves'' doing this to screw with Umbrage.

* BotheringByTheBook: Harry Potter has taken to doing this a ''lot''.

* AchronalOrder: There's no garuntee that a given snippet comes after the one before it or before the ones after it.

As repairs to Yggdrasil continue, more people in each universe begin Looping as well; characters that are aware of the Loops and retain memories of their previous go-arounds are termed "Awake".

* {{Hammerspace}}

As repairs to Yggdrasil continue, more people in each universe begin Looping as well. In addition, Fused Loops allow Loopers from different universes to interact. And as a given, Loopers are tremendously stir-crazy due to the loops. [[HilarityEnsues Hilarity usually ensues.]]

** This applies doubly for Original Series and ZeXal loops, as Yugi and Yuma share the role of anchor with Atem and Astral respectively. This has been handwaved away by explaining that Atem is bound to Yugi, or whoever is taking his place in the loop if he is there but Yugi is not, and likewise with Astral to Yuma.
* InSpiteOfANail: More so than the other loops, the Yu-Gi-Oh! Anchros are hit by this quite a lot, as a lot of the time even if Yugi Motou was to change the main game to, say, chess, Duel Monsters would still be the game of choice in Yusei Fudo's time. See TheChosenMany above

** This is explored in the Yu-Gi-Oh Loops through [[Anime/Yu-Gi-Oh!TenthAnniversaryMovie {{Paradox}}]]. After having been utterly destroyed and exposed yto what he thought was the uselessness of his action in a time loop setting, Paradox threatened the stability of two loops in an attempt to bring an end to it all by destroying everything, although in reality it would only result in a fused loop
