{{Recon 5}}: Would it be a good idea to edit some of the more "opinionated" examples to make them closer to factual statements than the vitriol that they now are? For example, saying "Many fans of X choose to ignore season 2" instead of saying "X ran for only one season. That is the truth."

Main/WillyFourEyes: Is it true? Was ''Main/OnePiece'' really dumped in favor of ''Blue Dragon'' on Cartoon Network? Ouch. Looks like the damage from the original dub has already been done.
Main/CharredKnight: Yes, it was cancelled for ''Blue Dragon''. Cartoon Network has stated that One Piece is gone for good, and they have no plans to ever rerun it.
----
Main/WillyFourEyes: Since it looks like some of the bullet points are back, I'm pulling out most of this Main/ConversationInTheMainPage regarding ''{{Main/Naruto}}'':
** Want to see episodes 136 through 220? Then be prepared to sit through ''Naruto'' Main/{{filler}} hell! Well, okay, [[Main/CrowningMomentOfAwesome episode 101]] can stay, but was it necessary to add ''that many'' non-manga episodes?
*** Actually, yes, they did. The anime outpaced the manga, to the point that they had literally animated every single chapter of the manga up until that point. There simply was nothing left to animate, so they had to buy some time. The series has since caught up to the YEAR of extra manga that the filler year gave them, so we should probably expect it again soon. The manga artist has mentioned he wants to collaborate with the anime team to make "official filler" this time, though -- canon stories revolving around the second stringers, adult ninjas, flashbacks, etc.
*** What are you talking about? The anime is at approximately #310 of the Manga, while Kishimoto just released chapter #395. There are three big fights left to cover, which, knowing {{Shonen}}, should take several years.
*** I was talking about, you know, the year of filler hell when they DID run out of manga material -- The "136 through 220" comment above, which, going by the "*"s, was what I was directly replying to. Hopefully the bullet lists will be fixed someday.
...since the point about not wanting to watch the "filler material" has already been covered elsewhere.
Also, I rewrote the entries regarding ''Main/GalaxyAngelRune'' and ''Main/SoukouNoStrain'' to remove the Main/UndeadHorseTrope in-joke, giving actual reasons for why those portions were ignored.

{{Servbot}}: Removed the Nanoha example. Don't think skipping the boring but necessary character introduction and plot exposition bits to get to the cool and awesome lots of stuff explodes bits is this, since they still exist in your personal canon. You just don't want to go through them again.
CharredKnight: I thought about deleting it just because the guy was bitching about how Nanoha was NOT A MARY SUE! Apparently what he wants is a series where the heroine has insane powers, and gets them for nothing, and has no consenquences for using them. I didn't because if he wants to pretend that Nanoha sucks its his choice.
{{Redkun}}: I added the Nanoha example. Contrary to what you believe, I loved the first two series of Nanoha. They were densely plotted, action-packed, non-stop thrill rides filled with some of the best characterisation and action scenes ever. I hated the third series because they took what had been one of the best features of the franchise- the pace- and slowed it to an absolute crawl. It was a step back for a series that had built itself on insanely cool, high-powered battles; where every episode felt essential instead of just a time-filler. It only really hits this mark during the last ten episodes, hence why I cut it out of my own continuity.
I have no idea what CharredKnight is talking about.
{{Servbot}}: I'd guess it's because cutting that from your own continuity essentially turns the last parts into a BeginnersLuck fest prevalent in anime aimed at younger age groups instead of a "[[Main/CharacterDevelopment see how much the kids have grown]]" thing. That, or it removes things like Nanoha's actual failure in the past and her general unease in becoming a mother, which does turn Nanoha into the static goddess that does no wrong.
Like I said, you may not wish to go through the boring first half again since it's mostly world introduction, character building, and the series trying to believably make the newbies into people that could decently keep pace with the old crew so they could take part in the climax, but unlike actual cases of Discontinuity, the things that happened in the first half would still have happened in your personal continuity.
{{Redkun}}: The thing is, the first two series were entirely what you described in your first sentence. And it became massively popular because of it. My problem with the first part of ''[=StrikerS=]'' is that it messes with a formula that made it unique and successful for a magical girl series. It proved that you could have a good amount character and world development without losing pace by densely plotting each episode. Why they decided to get rid of that in exchange for slow-burning training episodes (which I could find in any typical {{seinen}} anime) baffles me. (Note that I accept this is probably a case of TheyChangedItNowItSucks for me.)
*Just as an addendum: the way I phrased my entry was deliberately meant to be humorous. Just like people can remove disliked episodes or even entire seasons from continuity, removing the first half of a series strikes me as a valid example. I'm not particularly bothered about it though; I've got no intention of starting an editing war so I won't attempt to re-add it. It's just not worth the [[InternetBackdraft drama]].

{{Cassius335}}: Main/ConversationInTheMainPage
Similarly, there is no such thing as ''Yu-Gi-Oh The Five Ds''. Motorcycle racing duels? You must be joking...
* Two episodes have aired, how can you tell if you will like it based on two episodes? Unless you prejudged the whole thing based off of a promotional image.
** It's card games. On motorcycles. ''[[Main/IAmNotMakingThisUp Motorcycles]]''.
** Three, to be precise, and that is ''all'' that needs to be seen, quite frankly; no one would be stupid enough to create a dueling format where you have to operate motor vehicles while dueling ''and'' has a ''mandatory'' field spell that severely restricts the number of playable cards available to the duelists. It's just not good business practice (the field spell limits potential sales, and the dangers of riding while dueling limits potential ''buyers'').
{{Cassius335}}: Why on Motorbikes? RuleOfCool. And normal duels are still around, so I doubt Industrial Illusions are losing any money on Spells.
(later) just watched Ep 4 and reconfirmed something for myself: The first words out of a D-Wheel's speaker when a Riding Duel starts are "Duel Mode Start, Auto-Pilot Standby". So most of the work of driving the bikes is handled by computer.
GloatingSwine: The whole "on motorcycles" thing does seem to be trying to invoke the RuleOfCool, possibly even to go BeyondTheImpossible, but judging by the general reaction so far, isn't quite pulling it off. I expect it to enter widespread DisContinuity for just being ''too'' silly, even for a franchise where card games are SeriousBusiness without being cool enough. After all, nothing's sadder than trying to go BeyondTheImpossible and just ending up somewhere in the slightly improbable.
Shale: I'm sure there's someone out there for whom "Yu-Gi-Oh on motorcycles!" qualifies for Main/NinjaPirateZombieRobot levels of cool. I'm glad I'm not him.
Also, how do you declare DisContinuity on ''dubs''? Unless they Main/{{Macekre}} the plot, what continuity is there to Dis in the first place?
----
CharredKnight: I deleted some AdaptationDecay, and rewrote the FMA example to mention that some of the anime fans hate the movie. I also pointed out that I find the reason given hilarious when you compare that most of the romantic scenes are only in the manga.
----
CharredKnight: Deleted because its just about a dub (and has nothing to do with canon to Macross.
** Don't ''ever'' mention or even utter the word "''{{Main/Robotech}}''" in front of a ''{{Macross}}'' fan. [[Main/AFateWorseThanDeath You will regret it.]]
----
CharredKnight: Wily Four Eyes are you talking about the scene where its shown that Tomoe has a diaper fetish? Its played completely for comedy, and its stricly shown that Shizuru, was only playing with Tomoe.
----
{{Rogue 7}}: Speaking as a fairly observant {{Naruto}} fan (manga only, as of late), I can't think of any instance where both Sakura and Naruto admitted that they're on a date. I can certainly see the romantic tension building between them, but that evidence I don't see. (full disclosure- I admit to being a mild Naruto/Hinata shipper.)
----
AnonymousMcCartneyfan: If someone adds the HaruhiSuzumiya "Endless Eight" arc again, don't remove it again. 4chan is a large enough fanbase to create a true DisContinuity.
*The entry states: ''"This was what KyoAni was aiming, as they didnt want to do the 8 episodes that Kadogawa asked."'' Kadogawa who? ~~~~
----
AnonymousMcCartneyfan: Cut this and put it here for now.
** This troper genuinely wishes they had continued the series past episode 15, he would've liked to see Simon as an adult. [[spoiler:Curse you and your character derailments!]]
