It can also be inverted in real life, when hardcore fans or self-professed Internet scholars attempt to use the "original" Japanese name for anime/game characters around people who have only watched/played the Western version of said show/game, and are completely bashed for being total dorks.There's also the problem some newer members of the fandom may have with correct pronunciation, potentially making it difficult to figure out what they're talking about. This can, on rare occasions, be inverted in the anime fandom, with posters saying "You aren't Japanese, so stop using the Japanese names." While certainly some are just elitist, some just use the original name or spelling because they like it better or if it's just what they're used to.It is not intended to be a catalog of misspellings, misconceptions, and common errors - for that, we have The Big List of Booboos and Blunders. When adding examples, please keep in mind that this trope covers audience and fandom reactions. Not to be confused with Banning Ganon, who's a Complete Monster and clearly deserves to be Ganon Canned.ĭoesn't seem to be related to Gannon Car Rentals. If Canon is banned, it's Canon Discontinuity. For Cannons that are banned, see Fantasy Gun Control. An in-media equivalent would be Insistent Terminology. See Also: Fandom Heresy, I Am Not Shazam, Internet Backdraft, Media Research Failure and Refrain From Assuming. Of course, the list does have things like "Claiming Zelda II is anything other than the best Zelda game ever" and calling The Legend of Zelda CDI Games "epic", so there's a strong hint of Stealth Parody present. Also, as shown by the picture above, in one version of one game, the Big Bad Ganon's name was misspelled as Gannon so referring to him as Gannon (instead of Ganon) is also something likely to get you banned. The trope name comes from The Legend of Zelda forum that lays out ground rules about obvious false rumors (like that a cover song was produced by a different band from the one that actually did it, that Link's name is Zelda, etc.) and shuns people that continue to spread them.
As the following examples demonstrate, however, many other times the purists are not railing against mistakes, but against things which are not technically wrong, such as dub names, simply because they happened to dislike the alternate adaptation. It pushes fans' Berserk Button enough that people that continue to perpetuate it are treated with the same respect as a Troll, although many times they merely made an honest mistake. Someone could use the wrong romanization of a character's name, or think that the title referred to the main character, or insist on spreading a rumor about the plot until everyone believes it. In every community for every series, there are common mistakes.
