Line 16:
{{examples}}
▲== Anime & Manga ==
* For ''[[Attack on Titan]]'' there is a trailer that shows the drill sergeant telling Armin {{spoiler|that he would be 'a great light snack' for a Titan}}, for the second half of that trailer, we see {{spoiler| Armin being consumed by a Titan. This is probably a subversion, because in that episode, Armin is the only one in his squad that ''doesn't'' end up in a Titan's stomach.}}
* The entire ''[[Dragon Ball]]'' metaseries (all dubs) plays with this trope, particularly at key moments. It's done as a ratings ploy: if you want people to watch, tell them exactly what they'll see. Why would I want to miss {{spoiler|Trunks kill Freeza}}? Also the manga necessarily spoiled the anime. Common to any anime closely following a manga.
Line 99 ⟶ 98:
*** To make matters worse when it was announced to media a day before [[The Reveal]] that an all new half Black half Hispanic character [[Alliterative Name|Miles Morales]] would replace Peter Parker as Spider-Man the media went into uproar while still ignoring the [[Alternate Continuity]] thing.
* The ''[[Darkwing Duck]]'' story "F.O.W.L. Disposition" has Steelbeak doing an [[Enemy Mine]] with Darkwing after F.O.W.L. goes too far. Whether this is believable or not in the first place is debatable, but {{spoiler|every single cover shows him as an evil figure, including the back of the trade.}}
* For those who have read the comic enough, the cover of ''[[The Walking Dead
== Fan
* It's a pain trying to find a surprise twist in [[Fan Fiction]] because so many writers think "summary" means "tell me everything that happens in the story".
** This is especially the case when the surprise twist involves a [[Shipping]]. We get such hilarity as "Which girl will [[Harry Potter (novel)|Harry Potter]] choose? Harry/Hermione."
*** Granted, not including the pairings in the summary is practically asking the rabid shippers to flame you.
** The best summary of a story I've ever seen, for a ''[[Death Note]]'' fanfiction: {{spoiler|''What if Rem never finished writing L's name in the Death Note? How will L cope with the loss of the only father figure he's ever had in his life?}} May contain spoilers.'' Just in case there was any doubt at all, the story is '''''called''''' {{spoiler|''Watari''}}.
* The summary of ''[[Thirty Hs]]'' is basically a summary of the events of the first few chapters.
