Duplicate Character Guide

This Guide will be expanded to cover every type of duplicate and give you an idea what to do, using examples.

New Version

• No Duplicate
• Update the character's thumb and image to use the new appearance
• Use additional images to reflect the old appearance on the old title

There's a growing trend of remaking 90's anime with new art styles. When this happens, do not make a duplicate. Instead link t he character to the new title, then use an additional image to show the new art style.

Parody Series

• Duplicate

In the case of Sailor Moon h-game, I think it best to have a degree of separation between the official characters, and characters in a parody.

Personality Change

• Duplicate, depending on extent

I found Evil Phase Iruma to be a new character in their own right.

Secret Identities and Hero Costumes

• No Duplicate

Saitama / Caped Baldy, Izuku Midoriya / Deku and others like them, I do not feel need duplicates or any special actions. You can use Aliases to note their Hero name, and Additional Images to show their normal and hero appearances.
