Line 21:
* ''[[Ikki Tousen]]'' starts out without this problem, but as soon as Volume Two starts, the plot takes off and doesn't let you come with. Thankfully, every volume opens with a character guide.
* The anime adaptation of ''[[Wandering Son]]'' suffers from this trope, since the part adapted starts from the middle of the story. By this point, everyone knows everyone else and have built complicated relationships, which aren't easy to define even for people who have read the manga from the beginning.
* The manga version of ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX]]'' starts with Jaden in the middle of his first year at Duel Academy, and already a classmate and friend of Syrus, Alexis, Chazz, and Bastian. It's implied that his early encounters with these characters, along with his entrance exam, happened much like they do in the anime, and seeing as the manga as a whole is ''nothing like'' the anime, it seems likely the author simply omitted them to avoid slowing the story down.
