* Bright Noa, the only character to be a main character in ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam]]'', ''[[Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam|Zeta Gundam]]'', ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ|Gundam ZZ]]'', and ''[[Chars Counterattack]]'' is best known not for being a main character in so many series, but for [[Get a Hold of Yourself, Man!|hitting his crew members]]. Fandom loves to cite how much Bright slaps people for not being awesome enough. Interestingly, [[Memetic Mutation|Brightslaps]] are ''well'' received by the fandom, who tend to credit him for turning [[Wangst|whiners]] into [[Badass|MEN OF DESTINY]].
** Even ''[[Super Robot Wars]]'' gets in on the joke, where he regularly knocks some [[
** Similarly, Dozle Zabi only says "Once the Big Zam is mass produced..." ''once''. And its one of the most memorable lines in the series. Same applies to Ramba Ral's "This is no Zaku, boy! No Zaku!!!"
** [[After War Gundam X|Olba Frost]] has a great deal of hatedom due to ''one'' episode where he became furious at the heroes for hurting his brother. Never mind his big brother got injured [[Taking the Bullet|taking an attack for him]]. Never mind [[Dark and Troubled Past|they've gone through so much hell]] that they only have each other for emotional support. Never mind for the ''rest of the series'' he's a perfectly calm and composed person. Never mind [["Well Done, Son" Guy|he wants to redeem himself in the eyes of his brother]] and stand on his own two feet. Nope, he's a sniveling male [[Yandere
*** Which is a shame, as there are other, far more legitimate reasons to dislike him and Shagia.
** If you listen to the internet, [[Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny|Lunamaria Hawke]] couldn't hit the broad side of a barn if she was standing inside it because she missed a shot on a civilian shuttle moving on a relatively predictable course. On the one hand, episode 7 establishes her as a lousy shot in person when she couldn't get a bullseye at the shooting range. On the other, her ZAKU's [[Weapon of Choice]] is a long-range beam cannon...
Line 9:
** Even Kira Yamato isn't immune. Fans seem to have clung to the idea that he's actually a poor pilot that relies on Freedom's [[Beam Spam]] abilities and only sits in the corner letting his computer do all the work. This was only true in his first battle with Freedom, in which he does indeed use full burst mode for almost the entire fight, but that's understandable because he's getting the hang of it, and the show wanted to hammer "THIS IS FREEDOM'S GIMMICK! IT HAS MANY GUNS!" into the audience. But after that he mostly sticks to sabers and his one rifle (which doesn't use the targeting computer) and in fact moves around in battle quite a bit. He never uses his [[Beam Spam]] more than once or twice per battle after that, yet the fandom seems only remember him sitting in one spot and letting his computer do all the work for the rest of Seed and all of Destiny. Of course, this probably wasn't aided by the copious use of Freedom's Full Burst attack via [[Stock Footage]].
*** This is also in part because in the first part of the series, Kira pulled some tricks with the Strike Gundam that even detractors will call clever. After he gets the Freedom, this pretty much disappears in favor of the aforementioned "beat viewers over the head with the fact that Freedom has lots of guns".
** [[Mobile Suit Gundam 00|Nena Trinity]] crossed the [[Moral Event Horizon]] of the wedding shooting. Then afterwards, things got rather worse for her and she's forced to lay low, be less psychotic, helping Wang Liu Mei and when she mistreats her, Nena starts with leaking information that Liu Mei withheld to the Celestial Being, saving many lives, and when Liu Mei got even worse, Nena snapped again and killed her. While she's definitely a nutcase and generally not caring about other people's life, she's able to do both good and evil, and [[Fridge Horror|she's got a really tragic existance too]] which, while not absolving her of ANY crime, does mean she is perfectly able to be pitied. Of course, fans only remembered that one wedding incident and think that's all Nena ever did, thereby she's [[Complete Monster|an unforgivable evil
*** Probably a ''worse'' case than Nena is Flay Allster from ''[[Gundam Seed]]'', whom Nena [[Expy|physically resembles even]]. Like Nena, Flay was a crazy, evil bitch who did terrible things, but like Nena, she also ended up doing good things as the show went on. ''Unlike'' Nena, Flay actually redeemed herself [[Heel Face Turn|the whole way]], and worked very hard to make amends before [[Redemption Equals Death|she is killed by the]] [[Big Bad]]. Fandom's reaction to all this? [[The Scrappy|"Who cares what Flay did to redeem herself; all her ealier bitchery makes it null and void!"]]
* Every member of the primary cast of ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam Wing|Gundam Wing]]'' has at least one minor trait or famous moment that ended up being their standard fanfic portrayal. Sadly, this blatantly ignores the [[Character Development]] that sees the characters grow out of those attitudes, which in turn results in people [[Complaining About Shows You Don't Watch|savaging the series for having shallow, one-dimensional characters]].
** At the start of the series Heero is full of self-loathing and tries to [[The Atoner|atone]] by [[Death Seeker|putting his life on the line constantly]] - so much so that an off-hand line of dialog ("Life comes cheap, especially mine") has become a tertiary [[Catch Phrase]]. Combined with the above, he's also poratrayed as '''constantly''' trying to self-destruct his Gundam, when he only did that once in the TV series, {{spoiler|he was facing an ultimatum to either hand over his Gundam or have the colonies' inhabitants slaughtered, and chose to [[Take a Third Option]] through [[Heroic Sacrifice]].}}
*** He did try to kill himself two other times. First, on the beach when Relena found him in Episode 1. He fired an explosive charge in his pressure suit, but was only designed for [[Thrown Out the Airlock|in-space suicide by breaching the suit and evacuating its air]]. On the ground, it didn't even injure him. Second, in episode 3, when he at first didn't pull his parachute jumping out of the military hospital tower Duo broke him out of; he pulled it last-second, and only broke a leg.
** Relena only yelled Heero's name out loud ''thrice'' in the series (plus once more in the dub), yet people bash her as if she finished ''every'' episode with a [[Say My Name]] scream. She's also treated as a [[Yandere
*** There are also people who claim that she's constantly being kidnapped and in need of rescue, rather like [[Bleach|Orihime]] later on. Relena was kidnapped all of once in the anime (''Endless Waltz''), but people also tend to label her imprisonment by Romefeller as a kidnapping, ignoring that it was [[Take Me Instead!|intentional]] and [[Reassignment Backfire|had a positive outcome]]. And late in the series, she's held hostage on the space fortress Libra, but that was a snap decision by the person responsible and done while ignoring the chain of command, rather than orders by White Fang's leader to detain her.
**** Relena might as well get an award for this, since even the first things she ever says get this. In the first episode she asks her father to "leave yourself a little bit of free time" on his business trips, causing some to call her an [[Attention Whore]] for demanding he ignore his work to spend time with her. This ignores the fact that they are very obviously a loving family and that Relena was invited on the trip specifically so that she and her father could have some time together, only for him to have to back out due to his obligations. Not to mention that four episodes later, they go on another trip together and she takes his being busy much better.
Line 32:
** The fandom also tends to exaggerate Hinata's fainting spells despite the fact that she only fainted twice in the manga, (once while going into the hospital and seeing him injured, and once while he unexpectedly walks up on her when she hasn't seen him in almost three years). It doesn't help that she is [[Character Exaggeration|more prone to fainting in the anime]].
** And as for Naruto himself...y'know that "Sexy No Jutsu", an actual, honest-to-goodness ninja attack that involves turning into an alluring female (and is a ''regular super'' in the fighting games)? In the manga, he does this a couple of times in volume 1, and it's a long, long, LONG time before we see ''anything'' like it again. (Mainly because it's not a serious ninja technique, it's just a bit of goofing around, an extremely rare luxury in the world of Naruto.)
** Tsunade's [[
*** She seems to be more temperamental in the anime, as in the manga, the angriest she gets with Naruto after the Search for Tsunade Arc is raising her voice at Naruto for not showing respect to Fukasaku. Sakura suffers from the same problem. Not helped by [[Character Exaggeration]] in the anime, where one of the more forms of [[Padding]] is "Sakura beats up Naruto for no clearly defined reason."
** Kakashi very often suffers from this. He invariably teaches Sasuke the Chidori and all of a sudden he plays favourites and all he wants is to train Sasuke, while hating Naruto, ignoring that teaching Sasuke this was for Sasuke's own good ''beyond'' mere strength as a ninja, and generally Kakashi plays favorites the ''least'' out of the various sensei (like Gai with Lee, Asuma with Shikamaru, or Kurenai with Hinata.)
** No mention of the [[Accidental Kiss]] between Naruto and Sasuke back in episode 3? For shame.
* From hearing the so-called "Fans" talk, you'd think all [[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'s Shinji Ikari ever does is sit around [[
** Also, Rei. The first episode to properly focus on her clearly establishes her as a [[Sugar and Ice Personality]] who ''does'' have emotions, but apparently, four episodes of sitting around enigmatically are enough to brand yourself as ''[[Rei Ayanami Expy|the]]'' [[Emotionless Girl]].
** Among ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'' fans, Toji is known for being violent because of a fight with Shinji. Toji is normally a pacifist, and it relates to the same reason he picked a fight with Shinji: the reason he was pissed at him was how his sister was injured in an Eva battle.
Line 48:
** Shamal's [[Lethal Chef]] tendencies tend to get exaggerated in fan works, despite Hayate suggesting in the first A's sound stage that her cooking ''has'' improved significantly and the Wolkenritter conceding that it's not as good as what Hayate makes, but it's "not bad." It doesn't help that the other Wolkenritter like to remind her about her mistakes. One suspects that the makers caught on when they [http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y191/Liinna/Nanoha/Hayate/1264208642230.png included this scene] in ''The Battle of Aces''.
** First impressions are a large part of how a character is portrayed, and it's somewhat unfortunate that Cypha had to debut {{spoiler|easily dispatching [[Ensemble Darkhorse|Signum]] while mocking her status as a knight}}. It pissed a lot of people off when it first happened, and failed to endear her to almost anyone. This can also be a positive example, though, since otherwise most fans probably wouldn't be interested in her either way now.
* In ''[[Inuyasha]]'', Inuyasha really never left the group to run after Kikyo. The one time he did run after her was the first time he heard of her after she supposedly died, and while it was romantic it's implied he was entranced, and once he comes to his senses he abandons her to save Kagome. The next time he actually has any sort of secret meeting with Kikyo is 24 episodes later, where he only chases her to save her life when he sees her being chased by a
* If ''[[Zoids]]'' fanfiction were to be believed, one would think Bit and Leena were ''constantly'' stealing each other's snacks, but it's only happened maybe once or twice on the actual show.
* How many times did [[Suzumiya Haruhi]] grope Mikuru? Yes, more than once. And how many times did she {{spoiler|rewrite reality without even knowing that she's doing so}}? Once, and ''maybe'' twice. But considering how some people react, one would think she does these things ''every'' single episode.
Line 68:
*** Also, according to fandom [[Murder the Hypotenuse|"Obstacles are for KILLING!"]]. There were only TWO times when she either ''seriously'' said so (in front Ranma and Akane, when she actually was under [[Mind Control]] and was ordered to kill Ranma) or thought so (Taro kidnapped Akane, Shampoo intended to kill her and lay the blame on Taro, although she never actually voiced the plan, and she fell victim to a cold water trap that the [[Genre Savvy]] Taro set to keep anyone to approach Akane). The others involved more the [[Honor Before Reason|"I'm an Amazon and you're my love rival, so it can't be helped!"]] gig than trying to murder Akane bloodily [[For the Evulz|just for shits and giggles]] or [[Complete Monster|to cruelly and venomously spite Ranma for not choosing her]].
** Akane stopped calling Ranma "pervert" relatively early on in the manga, and when she used it again after many, many volumes of absence, the obvious [[Call Back]] [[Crowning Moment of Funny|made it very funny]]. To the fandom, it's pretty much her [[Catch Phrase]]. Though she does frequently accuse him of lecherous intentions, it's rare that she actually ''says'' "pervert".
* In ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'', [[Shrinking Violet|Nodoka]] will forever be considered the series' foremost [[Covert Pervert]] after she came up with [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/mahou_sensei_negima/v18/c165/8.html a certain] [[Tenchi Solution|solution]] to the love triangle involving [[
** It's mostly remembered because it IS genuinely [[Mahou Sensei Negima/Funny|hilarious]] to see the most shy of the girls having such filthy fantasies. That and it ''is'' canon that she's got ''Evangeline'' beaten in the "Ero" charts.
** This got a callback in a recent chapter, when Haruna called her and Yue "the polygamous duo".
*** And another in the {{spoiler|[[Lotus Eater Machine]], where Nodoka's "dream" is to be with both Yue and Negi. Though to be fair, Luna/Shiori (who ships herself with Negi and Fate) and Chachamaru (who wants to go [[Walking the Earth]] with Negi and Eva) seem to have similatt fantasies.}}
** For the same reasons, nobody will probably forget [[Robot Girl]] Chachamaru's "[[I Didn't Mean to Turn You On|winding]]" incident. It was even popular enough to get done [[Call Back|a second]] [[Running Gag|and third time]]. Pity how the OVA failed to translate this scene into audio-visual form.
* ''[[Death Note]]''s Light Yagami spends the vast majority of his time portraying a near-flawless modest front over a cold, calculating and, above all, ''rational'' interior. However, he's usually remembered for his two [[Evil Laugh
** Except that Light throws several tantrums in the course of the series, one as early as in the second episode. The last episode is the only time he does it with witnesses other than Ryuk present. But calling him calm or rational at any time is a stretch - that's yet another part of the mask he's constructed around himself.
* For ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!]]'', people who [[Complaining About Shows You Don't Watch|complain about shows they don't watch]] have always made fun of Yu-Gi-Oh! characters for having strange hair. In the original show however, only Yugi had ''exceptionally'' strange hair. The only other people who came close (like Honda and Otogi) were really no different than any traditional cartoon caricatures. Of course the later series (not made by the original creator) ran with this, and led to another lead character with strange hair in 5Ds.
Line 79:
* A similar thing happens to ''[[Dragon Ball]]'', which gets often mentioned to as "that show with spiky-haired dudes". The only spiky-haired characters are [[The Hero|Goku]] and [[The Rival|Vegeta]], sometimes [[Boring Failure Hero|Yamcha]], [[Superpowerful Genetics|Gohan and Goten]], and all the aforementioned minus Yamcha plus [[Future Badass|Trunks]] when they're [[Super Mode|Super Saiyans]]. And all of these but Goku and Yamcha don't appear until halfway through the series. Not to mention most of them are related. [[Unusual Euphemism|HFIL]], there are about as many "bald" characters ([[Overshadowed by Awesome|Krillin]], [[Extra Eyes|Tenshinhan]], [[Dirty Old Man|Muten Roshi]], [[Bald of Evil|Nappa]], Piccolo and Freeza kinda... Also Vegeta's [[Forehead of Doom]] went under [[Memetic Mutation]] in Japan), but you never see this called "that show with the bald dudes". To be fair, they tend to stand out the most, but still, you'd think everyone in this show has [[Shonen Hair]] by listening to some.
** Let us not forget how [[Smug Snake|Vegeta]] has a habit of [[Over Nine Thousand|yelling random numbers]] [[Memetic Mutation|while crushing electronics in his hand.]]
** Krillin is often mocked because [[Death Is Cheap|he dies a lot]]. While he does die 3 times (4 counting [[Dragon Ball GT]]), there's another character who dies just as much, but never gets brought up: Chaozu. However, Krillin's first two deaths were [[Cerebus Syndrome|important, memorable events]] that had a lot of emotional impact, the non-canon fourth one like this too, and only the third was minor (Albeit the anime made it a bit better). Chiaotzu's first two deaths were [[Senseless Sacrifice
** Krillin's subsequent deaths are far more notable because he was revived with the Dragon Balls once already (and before they came up with new rules, the Dragon can only revive a person once). Krillin effectively cheated death twice, first by being revived and again when his friends circumveined the 1 revival rule. This may have contributed to his dying being memetic. Still, the same things could be said of Chiaotzu (As they die at about the same time; hell, Chiaotzu's second death comes well before Krillin's), but the show focuses more on Krillin so it's understandable he's remembered more.
** Furthermore, Yamcha is considered the ultimate loser by many fans. While he loses most of his battles, often in ridiculous ways (His [[Death Is Cheap|first death]] is [[Memetic Mutation|a source of much laughter and jokes for fans]]), he does win twice and at least hangs around the main cast all the way through the series (GT aside, where he does get [[Demoted to Extra]] <ref>
** [[Dragonball Z]] often poked fun at for it's [[Inaction Sequence|dragged out fight scenes]]... However, the only time it was ''really'' as bad as the jokes made them out to be were during the Namek Saga. Other times were not as bad.
** Yamcha was killed by a Saibamen '''once'''. Video games however seem to love making Yamcha utterly freaked out by them if his post resurrection version encounters them despite being the weakest opponents available.
* There's one particular episode of ''[[Sailor Moon]] Stars'' where Setsuna/Sailor Pluto scares the living daylights out of the girls on about three occasions by popping up out of the blue. The girls are eating ice cream when she appears. She pops up holding a popsicle. This episode made her famous in fandom for the [[Stealth Hi Bye]].
** Mamoru, in the anime, broke up with Usagi ''once'', during a storyline in which he was having cryptic nightmares that Usagi would die if he didn't stay away from her. They got back together when Usagi had a nightmare too and realized what was ''really'' going on. They basically vow to [[Screw Destiny]] and fight off whatever threat comes together. During the entire storyline, Mamoru was shown privately grieving their separation and several times deigning on the [[Screw Destiny]] route himself but stopping out of fear for what would happen to Usagi. The eventual source was proven to be a future form of himself trying to test the strength of their relationship because of the powerful threats they would face from the Black Moon. The way some people (''especially'' Seiya/Usagi fans) tell it, Mamoru despised Usagi throughout the entire series, constantly abused her or ignored her, and only got back together with her out of duty to the relationship they had in their past lives.
Line 90 ⟶ 91:
** There's also the case of Rena Ryuugu, who is perceived by many to be the series' trademark [[Ax Crazy]], [[Cute Psycho]], [[Girl with Psycho Weapon|cleaver-wielding]] girl. The truth is, she is only truly like this in the sixth arc; her psychotic behavior in the first arc was {{spoiler|merely a hallucination out of extreme paranoia by its main protagonist, under effects of the [[Hate Plague]]}}.
*** Rena's still better than Shion though. She's considered a friendly character just as much as a [[Cute Psycho]], if not more.
* ''[[Axis Powers Hetalia]]'' has a case that's odd in that it's based on an event that hasn't even been ''shown'' in canon. As the series' characters are [[Anthropomorphic Personification
** Japan himself suffers from this. Yes, he stabbed his doting brother China [[In the Back]] for no clear reason. Yes, it was a shocking [[Kick the Dog]] moment, especially in a series that normally depicts historical events humorously, so it's understandable that it really stands out to many fans and makes them wonder about Japan's true character. And yes, many of [[Imperial Japan]]'s war crimes in real life were no laughing matter. But that doesn't mean that the character Japan ''has'' to be a sociopathic [[Complete Monster]] who ruthlessly manipulated, abused, and raped his East Asian siblings in cold blood during his imperial years, especially considering that he's shown to be on relatively civil terms with them in the post-WWII strips. And [[Must Make Amends|some bad acts can be undone]], you know...
** [[Nice Guy|Spain]] also gets this too. [[Fanon]] likes to think he's a [[Yandere
** A less extreme example would be Poland- he crossdressed all of three times in the entre webcomic, none of which were recent and one of which was deleted from the site due to [[Old Shame]], but fandom seems to love putting him in skirts near-constantly.
* In ''[[Ghost Hunt]]'', Naru is shown drinking tea maybe 3 or 4 times in 25 episodes, and other characters are often given tea as well when they come into the SPR office. The fandom, however, always portrays Naru as a tea addict. Find one fanfiction featuring Naru that does not mention tea multiple times, I dare you.
Line 100 ⟶ 101:
* Due to the fact that [[Shugo Chara|Ikuto]] is very flirtatious with Amu, some fans think he is a playboy. He isn't, because Utau once even said that Amu was the only girl he ever loved.
* When [[Mohiro Kitoh]] said he would make a manga about [[Mood Whiplash|a girl riding a mountain bike]], people blew the premise out of proportions, making jokes of how the bike will destroy the earth and such. Why? Because of his [[Narutaru|previous]] [[Bokurano|works]].
* In the [[Durarara!!]] novel, a new character is introduced named Aoba Kuronuma. There is no official artwork of him, however he has shown up a lot in fan art? How? Because he's most remembered by being stabbed with a pen by none other than {{spoiler|Mikado}} and is always drawn with a bandage on his hand. Even though he has yet to appear in the anime, jokes about what happened continues via drawings and Fanfiction.
* ''That'' incident in ''[[Code Geass]]'' involving [[A Date with Rosie Palms|Nina Einstein and a certain table]].
** There's a scene in the second season where [[The Dragon|Schneizel]] engages [[Anti-Hero|Lelouch]] in a game of chess, which became infamous all over the Internet when Schneizel moved his King next to Lelouch's, which is illegal AND impossible in chess. This tends to get portrayed as the writers being idiots who know squat about chess...ignoring that the actual game was already over and Schneizel was just [[Secret Test of Character|testing Lelouch to see what kind of leader he is]].
Line 109 ⟶ 110:
** What makes this most noticeable from other yaoi series is that Sekai Ichi Hatsukoi actively tries to avoid the [[Victim Falls For Rapist]] trope (making this series very realistic) and so far, the three other pairings have successfully avoided it. This is the only pairing that does not avoid it and to make it worse, this doesn't fall under the [[Victim Falls For Rapist]] trope, it falls under [[Rape as Drama]] and [[Stockholm Syndrome]]. Add to the fact that Chiaki doesn't handle the situation realistically {{spoiler|telling Hatori not to leave him instead of distancing himself like a normal person would and also not pitying Hatori during the rape scene}} also does not help Hatori ''or'' Chiaki's case.
** Chiaki himself has a [[Never Live It Down]] moment from the above but also because of his [[Oblivious to Love|inability to understand love.]] Apparently, there is a limit to how stupid you can be when it comes to romance. It's been established that Chiaki while not the sharpest tool in the shed is rather observant of certain things (like knowing Hatori's [[Berserk Button]] (since Hatori is a hard person to read) but [[Too Dumb to Live|pushing it anyway]] as well as knowing what his female audience wants and doesn't want when it comes to his manga along with wanting what's best for his friends and the people around him, he will always be labeled as the stupidest, most insensitive character in the series thanks to his oblivious nature and this attitude is what leads to {{spoiler|his best friend Yanase's [[Heroic BSOD|breakdown]]}}.
*** Episode 10, 15 and 16 doesn't help his cause. Episode 10, Yanase confesses to Chiaki when he's drunk. Chiaki responds by leaving him at the hot springs to run to Hatori. Episode 15, he acts like it's Yanase's fault that the previous incident happened and hits multiple [[Berserk Button
* Did you know that Mami from ''[[Puella Magi Madoka Magica]]'' actually does ''more'' things in the series than using [[Finishing Move|the Tiro Finale]] and {{spoiler|getting her head eaten?}} Because from the way the fans talk about her, you'd think that was ''all she ever did''. Even the official merchandise is getting in on it - a lot of it includes {{spoiler|the Witch who killed her}} in some way. Shortly after episode 3, japan got a new word: [[Person as Verb|Mamiru]]. It means either {{spoiler|get guillotined like Mami}} or {{spoiler|have a miserable death}}.
** Not true. She also {{spoiler|tries to kill all her friends in one timeline}}. Most people who saw that tend to remember it [[Break the Cutie|for one reason]] or [[Diabolus Ex Machina|another]].
* We, as the ''[[Berserk]]'' fandom, will never forget the pinnacle moment of [[Beautiful All Along|Guts' realization of]] [[Hot Amazon|Casca's]] [[Amazonian Beauty|beauty]] - when he made [https://web.archive.org/web/20091106081343/http://read.mangashare.com/Berserk/chapter-046/page009.html this priceless face.] Hey, it was a big deal, since it pretty much marked the moment that Guts [[Love Epiphany|began to view Casca as more than just "friends."]] [[Crowning Moment of Funny|Plus it was just so Goddamn funny.]]
** That, and Casca [[She Cleans Up Nicely|DID genuinely look nice in that]] [[Pimped-Out Dress]]. Can you blame him?!
* ''[[Your Name]]'': In-universe, whoever Mayugoro the sandalmaker was as a person and whatever else he did, now he is only known as the guy who somehow started a fire in his bathroom 200 years ago that led to the destruction of large parts of Itomori and the loss of the Miyamizu Shrine's records. Both Toshiki (in spinoff novel ''Another Side: Earthbound'') and Yotsuha are appalled that the Great Fire to which his name was appended is his sole legacy.
