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 parody and official characters.

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.
