Line 34:
* In regards to the ''[[Digimon]]'' series many people will refer to fanfics that are supposed to be a sequel to ''02'' (or sometimes even ''[[Digimon Tamers|Tamers]]'') as "Digimon (Adventure) 03". While technically correct, it's not right for the reason people think it is: "02" in "''[[Digimon Adventure 02]]''" refers to the ''year'' in which the story takes place (2002; ''[[Digimon Adventure|Adventure]]'' took place in 1999, three years before); thus "03" would actually be a story in 2003.
* The fact that [[Ranma ½|Ranma and Genma]] disdain weaponry is [[Sarcasm Mode|common knowledge]]. In fact, Ranma is shown to be expert with staff, spear, nunchaku and there are some official publicity pieces by Takahashi showing him performing routines with a Jian (the Chinese sword of nobility).
* In ''[[Naruto]]'' it is common knowledge that the Mist village, during its "Bloody Mist" days at least, had a policy of exterminating bloodline users, and that Madara was the [[Man Behind the Man]] in this village and orchestrated these genocides because he deemed them inferior to the Uchiha bloodline. Neither of these things are true- bloodline users were persecuted, yes, but by ordinary people in the Water country and elsewhere, not by the Hidden Mist village (which is only ''part of'' the Land of Water as its ninja village); and the idea that Madara has a problem with non-Uchiha users is based on a popular fan theory, due to his [[Motive Rant]] to Sasuke where he blames the Senju clan for persecuting and betraying the Uchiha clan, even though it was largely his fault, and tells Sasuke about how superior the Uchiha were. Fans put two and two together and assumed he was an Uchiha supremacist, even though much of his rant was mixed in with [[Blatant Lies]] and was
** Iwa is claimed to hate Minato and will kill anytime even related to him despite the fact that he's dead. It's usually the reason why Naruto's parentage is hidden. The Fourth Hokage has never even been mentioned by any Iwa Shinobi. What Iwa had was a "flee on sight" order regarding Minato during the last Shinobi War (when Iwa and Konoha were on opposing sides), because [[Person of Mass Destruction|Minato was too powerful for any of them to stand a chance against]], with the possible exception of [[Old Master|the Tsuchikage]]. This doesn't indicate any grudge against him, just a tactical judgement that it's never wise to fight the [[One-Man Army]] on his own terms.
** Kurenai has been claimed to have been in Hinata's life since she was a child. However multiple (anime-only) flashbacks say otherwise.
Line 236:
* ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog]]'' is often thought of as being aquaphobic. While this is canon in some adaptations, it isn't canon in the games. He simply can't swim and has the same fear of drowning that everyone else has, especially people who can't swim.
** Also everyone knows that his love of chili-dogs became game canon in the ''[[Sonic Storybook Series]]''.. Except it was made canon in ''[[Sonic Advance]] 3'''s Japanese manual. There's also some common misinformation about where his love for hot-dogs came from - the earliest known reference was in an early ''[[Sonic the Comic]]'' issue (though it was regular veggie dogs instead of chili dogs).
* It's common knowledge that Poison and Roxy in ''[[Final Fight]]'' were made into [[
** It's not entirely Common Knowledge. Poison and Roxy originally were female and were changed to
* [[Super Mario Bros.|Mario]] does not open blocks by hitting them with his head. If you look closely, he actually punches them.
