Lets see if I managed to get the title right this time eh?

First off, a lot of the entries here must have been written by someone with only a basic grasp of english. Its too widespread to cite specific examples.

Second, there is misuse of example tropes. Two specific instances are a guy who opens up a black hole being added to The Berserker when that doesnt fit the trope at all, and violence taking place in a school being added to High Octane Nightmare Fuel. I know some tropers evidently have low tolerance for violent scenes, but that doesnt count as HONF.

Third, it is full of people using This Troper. Full.

Oh, and quite a few links are broken.

This page really needs a cleanup. Not by me though, I'm far too lazy :p

Wow. The example formatting isn't even consistent.

Yeah, this needs help, but I have other things to do.

Egad, I've just finished reading all the examples. Its like nobody realises we dont use This Troper when adding examples.

And how in the hell is anything Guyver related So Bad, It's Good? Made worse by This Troper being used for that one as well.

[up] That might be for the second live action movie. The first one was just plain horrible but the second one has a certain cheesy charm.

And it shouldn't be on any of it probably. We should probably split the page into appropriate names as well.

I can see how attacking the school can my high octane nightmare fuel. Sure it's monsters but there' some grisly stuff with young students getting blown apart or electrocuted. That scene, along with the sniper scene from "Out of Control" are far more unsettling than the gorier aspects of the scene.

Guy getting arm bit off by a monster in the middle of the street. Nasty but not so bad. Student getting arm bit off in the middle of school. Suddenly very scary.

Every other repair should be full filled but c'mon, one person's nightmare fuel shouldn't be up to judge.

Don't care, it goes on the YMMV page.

Moving all YMMV tropes right now.

EDIT: All moved (someone should probably check on those, though, I swear that some of them looked a bit off...). Now to take a little look at the formatting.

EDIT 2: I think I've standardised all the tropes into the whole "Trope Name: Example" route. The entry for White-Haired Pretty Boy seemed to get a bit Natter-ish, so I just zapped the whole Really 700 Years Old mentions within it. Also, I notice there seems to be a Character Sheet. Should we zap all the Character tropes limited to one character on the main page? I can't remember our stance on that.

EDIT 3: Oh, and what namespace should this go in?

Given it's a franchise, I think it would be best to split off the pages. I think it's got a Manga, two Anime, and a Film, all of which are different.

Fixed some mistakes that were made once upon a time.

[up][up]Actually it's got a manga, THREE separate anime, and two American live-action movies.

...Sorry for the mess. I try to clean it up occasionally, but most of my fellow Guyver fans are... let's say more enthusiastic than attentive? ^.^;

Bump. Zapped some uses of "I".
