History YMMV / TheKingdomKeepers

* FridgeLogic: In the seventh book [[Disney/{{Tangled}} Rapunzel]] still has her [[spoiler:magical long blonde hair, despite it being cut off at the end of the film she was in]].

** In fairness however, Chernabog's origin story was most likely a case of ArtisticLicense to justify the Overtakers bringing Chernabog with them on the cruise ship, and the French Jesters in Epct were most likely an attempt to give the Overtakers some [[FacelessGoons generic and expendable minions.]]

* CriticalResearchFailure[=/=]DanBrowned: Ridley Pearson has gone on record stating how much research he has done on how the park and rides operate...this apparently does not extend to the characters themselves, however, with such instances as Frollo speaking with a heavy French accent (then again [[FridgeBrillaince The Hunchback of Notre Dame takes place in France]] so that makes sense), the Hyenas from The Lion King not being able to talk, and Tia Dalma and Jack Sparrow being villains (the latter is hinted at being under Maleficent's control, but STILL). Plus, according to him, [[SadlyMythtaken Chernabog is an evil ancient Aztec bat god that requires a blood sacrifice in a South American temple to be brought back to life instead of just being the Slavic god of darkness atop of Bald Mountain.]]. He also include characters that don't even exist, including a pair of French jesters in Epcot and Tom Sawyer (despite the fact there's Tom Sawyer Island in Frontierland, Tom doesn't actually appear there in reality).

Plus, according to him, [[SadlyMythtaken Chernabog is an evil ancient Aztec bat god that requires a blood sacrifice in a South American temple to be brought back to life instead of just being the Slavic god of darkness atop of Bald Mountain.]] [[YouFailBiologyForever And Brer Fox is a Wolf]].

** Also, the preview for the seventh book says there were six weasels with [[WhoFramedRogerRabbit Judge Doom]]. There's only five in the movie. Either a new weasel has joined the Toon Patrol, or this is a very glaring version of this trope.

** Overlapping with SpellMyNameWithAnS, Savor is always called "the Savor," no mention of her gender is brought up, the pronouns used are "it, its," and in a nod to the original Literature/Tarzan , is called a lioness rather than a leopard.

** However, Maybeck does mention that he has a severe hero complex in Book 5. He also seems confused and even irritated by the fact that he keeps on getting randomly checked out, hit on and kissed by most of the girls he meets.

* FridgeHorror: So, everything in the parks comes to life after dark? What about [[{{Franchise/Alien}} the Xenomorphs]] in the Great Movie Ride?

* Wangst: Finn has to deal with bullies, high school, love triangles, disapproving parents and OH MY GOD you have Disney villains to fight, just get over it and save the world already!

* DarknessInducedAudienceApathy: By the sixth book some fans have stopped reading because they feel it's gotten a little TOO dark, even by Disney standards [[spoiler: A blood sacrifice resulting in the death of a minor character by his best friend will do it.]]

* NewPowersAsThePlotDemands: By the fifth and sixth book, Fin starts having visions of the future for no reason and gains immense strength. He also gains a strange connection with Maleficent. Oh, and did we mention Jafar can turn himself into ROPE? Remember that scene in Aladdin?

* TheWoobie: Dillard. The poor guy's been totally abandoned by his supposed best friend. [[spoiler: and he gets killed in the sixth book all because he wanted to be a DHI.]]

** Most Disney fans make the argument that Pearson hasn't done research into the spirit of the park itself, including the fact that Walt Disney didn't even want to use holograms in any of the rides or the park itself after being approached by a company that created them, and Imagineers have continued to stay away from using them ever since. So technically the DHIs should not even exist!
** Plus, the park is NEVER completely abandoned after it's closed, not even by characters come to life. There are cleanup crews, Cast Members double-checking rides to make sure they are working and safe, and more. Plus, if there were characters running around and chasing the DHIs, wouldn't security have noticed by now?

* NewPowersAsThePlotDemands:

• Most Disney fans make the argument that Pearson hasn't done research into the spirit of the park itself, including the fact that Walt Disney didn't even want to use holograms in any of the rides or the park itself after being approached by a company that created them, and Imagineers have continued to stay away from using them ever since. So technically the DHI Initiative should not even exist!
• Plus, the park is NEVER completely abandoned after it's closed, not even by characters come to life. There are cleanup crews, Cast Members double-checking rides to make sure they are working and safe, and more. Plus, if there were characters running around and chasing the DHIs, wouldn't security have noticed by now?
• Speaking of which, there are a ton of characters that walk around where they're not supposed to be, like the Fantasia Brooms in the Voyage of the Little Mermaid show and the Country Bears in Mickey's Philharmagic. Not to mention Maleficent and Finn dressed as Aladdin fighting in Tomorrowland IN BROAD DAYLIGHT WITH A WHOLE CROWD OF TOURISTS WATCHING. As a former Character Attendant Cast Member, I'd like to say if that really happened in the park, that would never go over as smoothly as it did in those books. There's always a Coordinator or Manager watching the action somewhere and ready to report to the higher-ups in any department. This kind of action qualifies for instant termination for whoever's in those costumes. Yes I know they're technically the characters themselves, but nobody questions that they're there to begin with? Nobody notices?
