Trivia / The Erased Chronicles

• Adored by the Network: In a sense; the author has a lot of stories besides the Erased Chronicles, but the Erased Chronicles is their biggest priority, based on their updating schedule. Some of their one-shot projects haven't been updated the way they probably should.
• Black Sheep Hit: The author had only published one other work prior to the Erased Chronicles, though had years of writing group projects before this. The Erased Chronicles is the author's first long-running solo project, first romance fanfic, first proper Dragon Ball story on the website, and inexplicably became his most popular work.
• Contractual Immortality: The best part of writing a fanfic, in the Erased Chronicles, the author has no limit on who he can kill. Unlike in the anime, or manga, where things like character popularity and the status quo factor in.
• Creator's Favorite: Gohan. There's a reason this story has Gohan as the leader, rather than Goku. Interestingly, she didn't start out this way, but Videl developed into this, which is why the author wound up giving her more screentime and focus than he initially intended.
• Dear Negative Reader: The author will often use the Author's Notes to address reviews that speak negatively about the story, concepts, etc., when he isn't directly confronting them on Fanfiction.net's Personal Messages.
• Doing It for the Art: The very nature of fanfic at its core, the author writes the Erased Chronicles for the sheer joy of writing the story, and makes no profit off of it. In fact, he goes out of his way to spend both money and time on extra things for the fanfic, commissioning artists to create images and the like, as well as creating some as well.
• Extremely Lengthy Creation: The Erased Chronicles appears to be wanting to get its hands on an award for 'Longest Running Dragon Ball Fanfic on Fanfiction.net', as it has been going on for five years without any hint of slowing down.
• Exiled from Continuity: Dragon Ball GT. The author is notably not fond of it, and while he may borrow concepts, characters and other some-such from the series will never appear.
• God Does Not Own This World: The Erased Chronicles is a fanfic, so that goes without saying.
• It Was His Sled: The fact that Zamasu is Black is such common knowledge, both authors — JacobKingston10 and LastationLover5000 — are writing The Future Is Black with the full expectation that the only one who doesn't know is Trunks and his ilk.
• Outdated by Canon: When Goku used the Kaiōkenn with Super Saiyan 2 in the Erased Chronicles, it was still feasible at the time of the chapter's writing. Yet, shortly before the chapter was finished, Dragon Ball Super stated the combination couldn't be done. The author had to Hand Wave an excuse for it to make sense.
• Writing by the Seat of Your Pants: For just as much as the author has planned, he'll throw something in that he just thought of. A good example of this within the Erased Chronicles is Vegeta's Super Saiyan 3 transformation. It wasn't planned, never intended, but the author thought it would be a good way to send off the character, as he was drawing a blank on anything else.
