Line 573:
* The time setting of ''[[Alfred J Kwak]]'' is considerably vague. In general it seems to take place somewhere during the 20th century, but among other things Professor Paljas has access to advanced supertech, and a mediaeval Middle Eastern kingdom also seems to exist.
* The actual time period of ''[[Samurai Jack]]'s'' birth was never stated, thought presumed to be Feudal Japan but his youth had quite a few inconsistencies. He learned mounted combat from the Mongols, wrestling from Roman gladiators, and archery from [[Robin Hood]] himself! The time periods here are all over the place and impossible from a purely historic perspective.
* ''[[Turning Red]]'' is ostensibly set in 2002 (when the director grew up) in [[Vancouver]] (where the director grew up) yet most hair styles and dress seem to come from the early 2020s of its production. This is particularly noticeable with the large number of hijabed background characters in a work ''allegedly'' set months after 9/11.
