Common Knowledge: Difference between revisions

* According to most people, Shana of ''[[Shakugan no Shana]]'' and Louise of ''[[The Familiar of Zero]]'' are equals personality wise. Except they're not, at all. Shana starts rather rough but becomes nicer, less [[Tsundere]] and more [[Defrosting Ice Queen]] (this is technically the original definition of a tsundere, but that's neither here nor there). At points she's more of a Type 2 [[Tsundere]], but in general she veers towards nice. In the other hand, Louise is a Type 1 tsundere through and through, and a rather harsh one at that (But she has her sweet moments too, mind). Yet despite the obvious disparity, people will treat them as the same. In all fairness, this is more [[J.C.Staff]]'s fault, who after the success of ''[[Shakugan no Shana]]'' decided to play Louise's physical similarities by giving her [[Rie Kugimiya|Shana's voice]], despite being completely different kind of tsunderes, as said. It's even better when [[Hayate the Combat Butler|Nagi]] and [[Toradora!|Taiga]] are thrown on the mix: While Taiga is indeed a lot like Shana (Only not an [[Action Girl]] because her show isn't about fighting), Nagi is a regular Type 2 [[Tsundere]] as well as a [[Gamer Chick]] and a [[Otaku Surrogate]]; once again, little to do with Shana and nothing to do with Louise. Yet still all four are treated as the exact same character, and all because they're all long-haired, flat-chested, have [[Zettai Ryouiki]] and share a voice actress!

* 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.

* 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 transparently designed to mess with Sasuke's mind. Haku's mother was killed by her father, and Kimmimaro's clan was killed by the Mist only when they attacked it, which they only did because they were a clan of [[Stupid Evil]] [[Blood Knight]]s. Madara has never shown a flicker of hatred for bloodlines in general and the Mist, being a Hidden Ninja Village, most probably had a policy of ''collecting'' them- the current Mizukage is actually a user herself (twice over). This one is quite egrarious as even a lot of Real True Fans actually believe this. The fact that {{spoiler|Tobi is not really Madara at all and only allowed people to ''think'' he was for a time}} does not help this.

** 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.
