Now only applies to source material subject to such. Specific fanworks are Adaptational tropes.


* DracoInLeatherPants: While Cornelia had sympathetic traits in the original show, she was still a horrific war criminal who mass murdered Japanese out of racism. This fic softens her into more of a PunchClockVillain simply enforcing imperial law and softens her racist war crimes.



* RonTheDeathEater: Like many other fanfics, Chiba and Asahina fall victim to this. Contrasted with canon where, while the two are shown more distrustful of Zero after he abandoned them during the Black Rebellion and appeared unapologetic when he returned, and only betrayed him when given sufficient evidence to suggest he crossed the line, the Geass Order massacre for Asahina and the doctored evidence Schneizel provided for Chiba, here they are depicted as disloyal and belligerent from the outset, not helped by Trollouche going out of his way to antagonize them. For specifics though:
** Asahina is made out to be against Trollouche's leadership from the start, to the point he secretly aids an attempted coup d'etat and alliance with the Chinese Federation, and then subjected to a UriahGambit as punishment, [[spoiler:said gambit resulting in his death due to Kewell emerging in the Siegfried.]]
** Chiba regularly badmouths Trollouche, stirred up unrest against the Britannian members of the Black Knights, and attempted to convince Tohdoh to stage ''another'' coup while Trollouche was comatose, only failing because Tohdoh had UndyingLoyalty to Trollouche and C.C. was listening in, the latter of whom Chiba ''attacks'' upon discovering her listening in, only for C.C. to nearly kill as a means of putting the fear of god into her, and only spares her due to Tohdoh promising to kill her himself if she continues her treasonous behavior.

* {{Anvilicious}}: During a conversation with Taizo Kirihara, the leader of Kyoto, Trollouche scourges the Japanese national character for their xenophobic and racist attitude and says this is why Japan will never free itself without him. Kirihara, though outraged, does not contest the statement. This could be considered racist or an author filibuster...except that this is something that's a problem in Japan in the real world. And as canon CG demonstrates, Trollouche has a point.



* ContinuityLockout: Certain details pertaining to the story, specifically the organization NOD, it's members Laila and Iah'bahad, and the events taking place in Area 18, require reading the sidestory "''Laila of Arabia''". Making things even harder though is that the writer for that sidestory, [=omgitsTabi=], has left it [[DeadFic abandoned]], and many details that would have been explained there end up feeling like a ShockingSwerve in the main story, namely that [[spoiler:Iah'bahad is actually an amnesiac [[SparedByTheAdaptation Naoto Kozuki]].]] WordOfGod says this was not intentional. The plan was to have two concurrent stories, and the plots converge in R2. This was apparently the cause of considerable fighting behind the scenes between the writers.

I however, am Trickster. And you are misrepresenting the situation and ignoring the nuances. And pulling this because I disagreed with your interpretation in the thread on QQ is especially galling.

This is a YMMV trope. There are users in the forum who see this to be the case as they call out Trickster Priest for bashing. Just because you disagree doesn't mean you can remove a subjective trope, since you are only a single person. Take it up with trope repair threads if you absolutely must. Otherwise, remove it again, it's officially an Edit War.

Hi, I'm not trickster and you are still wrong; the difference here was Lelouch being more aggressive in calling it out because he remembered they were trouble before, they had NEVER liked him in canon and fucked him over later, and thus it does not fall to the extremes of Ron The Deatheater
