Negative Continuity for playing fast and loose with continuity in general.
They Killed Kenny Again specifically for a character dying and inexplicably returning often.
Sometimes even a series that has story arcs and continuity can have a Gainax Ending or Last-Second Joke Problem that's not meant to be taken seriously.

whats the trope, where in one episode something happens and then in the next one everything is back to normal? Like for ex. a character dies or theres an apocalypse and then everything is fine next week. I know i've seen it somewhere but can't find it now. usually used in cartoons like gumball
