Adaptational Late Appearance	comment	It appears as if a character has been Adapted Out. They're nowhere to be seen, despite the fact they should have appeared by now according to the source material. All of a sudden, the character appears in the adaptation! Maybe they're in a Demoted to Extra role, maybe they're given a completely different role, or maybe they're just mysteriously late. Either way, they appear much later in the adaptation than they do in the original source. Adaptational Early Appearance is the inversion. This can lead to an Adaptation-Induced Plot Hole or an Adaptation Relationship Overhaul. Can sometimes result in Remember the New Guy? when a character omitted from the adaptation of their debut appearance is present for a later one and the story acts as if they've always been there. SPOILERS AHEAD.

Due to him being omitted entirely from the first Denis Villeneuve film, which adapted the first half of the book, Feyd-Rautha's introduction in Dune: Part Two brings him into the story much later than usual, though he still plays a significant role.

Movie, Mario doesn't get to meet Cranky Kong until he's already learned of Bowser's existence and entered the Mushroom Kingdom. In their debut game, Cranky, who was younger, in his prime and called Donkey Kong, was Mario's very first foe, before Mario had his adventures in the Mushroom Kingdom. A more downplayed case than most since Cranky is still a part of Mario's origin story, but in a much different way than in the games.

He's absent in the early anime, however, most of his role taken instead by Canon Foreigner Sasuke Sarugakure (minus the Akane crush). Hikaru does finally join the cast in the anime, but only by episode 96 of the second season, as a New Transfer Student.

Adaptational Late Appearance / int_30a5ebfd	comment	Kurenai and Asuma's daughter Mirai appeared in Naruto as an infant and a toddler. Her adult design, on the other hand, had this treatment. She appeared in chapter 700 of the manga in the Distant Epilogue. That chapter wasn't in the anime (with the last episode adapting a book about Naruto's marriage instead) but was later loosely adapted in episode 24 of Boruto. Mirai wasn't present in episode 24 either. As Mirai is several years older than the other Next Generation kids, she has no reason to hang around anyone except maybe Shikadai. Mirai was thus mysteriously absent until she appeared at the end of the Academy arc in episode 38.

Adaptational Late Appearance / int_44127c7c	comment	Power Rangers: Season 3 of Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers adapted Ninja Sentai Kakuranger, but swapped the order the mechs appeared in, resulting in the Shogunzords (the Giant Beast General Gods) and Battle Borgs (the Beast General Fighters) appearing after the Ninjazords (the Super Stealth Beast Gods and Tsubasamaru) and Ninjor (Ninjaman). Gingaman's main villains all appear in the first episode, even if they aren't active until later. Their Lost Galaxy equivalents are more spread out; Captain Mutiny, for example, is a late series Arc Villain, while his Sentai counterpart, Zahab, is Gingaman's Big Bad. Mirai Sentai Timeranger to Power Rangers Time Force Due to the first episode of Time Force being a two-parter, Wes debuted in part-two. In Timeranger, Tatsuya debuted in the second half of the first episode. In Timeranger, the V-Rex appeared before Naoto became Time Fire. Here, it's the other way around (and Eric appeared appeared much earlier). Technically, all the pre-Zyuranger suits used in Power Rangers Super Megaforce, as the entire franchise began with the adaptation of Zyuranger which was the 16th Super Sentai. In Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger, Chaos, Luckyuro and Torin all appear in the first episode. Ramirez/Kyoryu Cyan appears in episode 5 along with his Zyudenryu, Ankydon, while Dantetsu Kiryu appears in episode 20. In Power Rangers Dino Charge, Curio (Luckyuro) first appears in the fourth episode, while Arcanon (Chaos) and Zenowing (Torin) appear well into Dino Super Charge note Though Zenowing appears slightly earlier morphed as the Silver Ranger.. And while the Ankylo Zord appears in episode 6, it's not until Dino Super Charge that the corresponding Aqua Ranger/James Navarro, puts in an appearance. Ninninger's Masakage Tsugomori first appears immediately after Raizo Gabi's demise and is a main villain. Tynamon appears late into Super Ninja Steel, and consequently doesn't last as long. The Go-Busters was the team introduced after the Gokaigers (Super Megaforce). Power Rangers Beast Morphers are instead the team succeeding the above mentioned Ninja Steel Rangers due to it being adapted Out of Order. This obviously extends to their entire cast, with the exception of Big Bad Evox (who is actually the Returning Big Bad of Power Rangers RPM). Power Rangers Cosmic Fury adapts the mechas of Uchu Sentai Kyuranger, the 41st Super Sentai. However, Cosmic Fury is the Immediate Sequel of Power Rangers Dino Fury, the adaptation of the 43d series Kishiryu Sentai Ryusoulger. This makes Cosmic Fury the second Power Rangers series adapted Out of Order after Beast Morphers.

Kang the Conqueror was a very early Avengers villain, showing up in issue #8 of the original series. The Ultimate version of Kang would not appear until the "Ultimates Disassembled" storyline, which was published 12 years after the first Ultimates series began. Ultimate Spider-Man: Mysterio, who first debuted in the Silver Age back in The Amazing Spider-Man #13, didn't appear in the Ultimate universe until the lead-up to Ultimatum, 8 years after the series began. Likewise, the mainline universe's Vulture first appeared in The Amazing Spider-Man #2 back in 1963. Ultimate Vulture's first appearance was in Ultimate Spider-Man #89. The Chameleon, who was one of the very first villains Spider-Man ever fought in the original comics, did not appear in Ultimate Spider-Man until about 10 years after the series began. Ultimate X-Men (2001): Angel, who was one of the founding Silver Age X-Men in the original comics, doesn't show up until issue #40. Vanisher was the second ever villain fought by the original X-Men, but doesn't appear until the Ultimate War mini-series in this universe.

Adaptational Late Appearance / int_55de9501	comment	Powerpuff Girls Z: Not counting pre-series shorts, HIM was the third recurring villain introduced in the original cartoon after Mojo Jojo and Sedusa. Here he's the very last member of the Rogues Gallery to appear, though it worked on building him up as the Big Bad. As mentioned above, Sedusa herself. She went from being the second supervillain introduced in the original cartoon, preceded only by Mojo Jojo, to instead being preceded by (in order) Mojo, Princess Morbucks, Fuzzy Lumpkins, and the Amoeba Boys in this anime. Sedusa's introduction in the cartoon also has her disguising as a woman named "Ima Goodelady" to seduce and manipulate Prof. Utonium. The anime gave Prof. Utonium a wife whose overall design is based on this false persona, who makes her first appearance during the Christmas Episode which is the anime's halfway point. The monster form of Octi appears in the third episode, becoming the Monster of the Week thanks to the debuting HIM. The anime version of events didn't happen until Episode 36, well over HIM's debut (though he was still the one responsible). The original girls used the Humongous Mecha Dynamo in the Season 1 finale. The anime girls uses it towards the Grand Finale, well after elements from the first four seasons have been (loosely) adapted.

This was due to a "Bat-Embargo" that DC had put in place at the time which prevented many Batman characters from appearing in multiple shows airing at the same time, and Robin was a main character in Teen Titans (2003) for most of The Batman's run.

Adaptational Late Appearance / int_64dd58b2	comment	The Harry Potter film franchise does this with many of the side characters, making them appearing only when they become relevant to the plot. Both Cedric Diggory and Cho Chang debuted in the third book. Since the films mostly cut Quidditch, Cho's debut is delayed to the fourth film, while Cedric does still technically appear, but isn't referred to by name or properly introduced, and is played by a different actor. Professor Sprout, introduced as Harry's teacher in the first book, appears the first time in the second film. Arabella Figg, who got introduced as early as the second chapter of the first book, only appears in the fifth film. Bellatrix Lestrange appeared as early as the fourth book as a Death Eater standing trial in the Pensieve Flashback. Since the flashback is changed in the film, she makes her debut in the fifth film. Meanwhile, Bellatrix' sister, Narcissa Malfoy, was also very briefly introduced in the fourth book at the Quidditch World Cup and had been mentioned a couple of times before and after then. She's neither seen nor mentioned until the sixth movie. Mundungus Fletcher, who was introduced as a prominent member of the Order of the Phoenix in the fifth book (and mentioned even earlier) only makes an appearance in the seventh film. Bill Weasley appeared in person for the first time in the fourth book and continued to be a Recurring Character onwards. He only appears in the last two films. Dumbledore first mentions his brother Aberforth in Harry's presence about halfway through the fourth book. He's mentioned in passing every once in a while and Harry technically meets him in both the fifth and sixth books without knowing who he is. Although Harry notes he looks familiar but can't put his finger on why. However, outside an extra playing him in the fifth movie in a blink and you'll miss it cameo, he's not so much as mentioned until the seventh movie and doesn't appear until the eighth. Harry even says he didn't know he existed at the wedding in the former movie. Lavender Brown is a supporting character throughout all seven books. Technically, she's in the second and third films, but this just amounts to the name "Lavender Brown" being assigned to an extra who is never actually identified onscreen as the character. For all intents and purposes, Lavender doesn't make her filmic debut until it's time for her disastrous romance with Ron in the sixth movie.

Adaptational Late Appearance / int_69d15cc0	comment	Marvel Cinematic Universe: In the comics, Spider-Man predated Iron Man and the formation of The Avengers, and was not a member of the team when the book first launched. Because Spider-Man's movie rights were off-limits during the first two Phases of the MCU, he doesn't show up in the movies until several years after the Avengers have already been formed. In fact, his idolization of the Avengers (especially Iron Man) is a plot point. Played with in the absence of The Wasp and Ant-Man in the first two phases of the MCU. In the comics, Hank Pym and Janet van Dyne were founding members of the Avengers, and in fact Jan was the one who coined the name "Avengers" in the first place, while Hank was the creator of Ultron. Instead, Nick Fury named the teamnote Eventually revealed in Captain Marvel (2019) to have been inspired by Carol Danvers' USAF Call Sign. and the creation of Ultron fell to Stark and Banner. And then it's turned on its head in Ant-Man, with the revelation that Hank and Jan predated the Avengers, working as operatives of S.H.I.E.L.D. during the Cold War. Making it both a late appearance in the context of the franchise as a whole, and an In-Universe early appearance. In the comics, the Mandarin was one of Iron Man's earliest villains, and his Arch-Enemy. Although a charlatan claiming to be the Mandarin shows up in Iron Man 3, the real Mandarin doesn't appear until the 2021 movie Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, a full 13 years after the release of the original Iron Man movie. Because of this, the Mandarin instead fights Shang-Chi, as Iron Man was killed off at the end of Avengers: Endgame 2 years prior. Adam Warlock doesn't join the Guardians of the Galaxy until the third movie (though his cocoon appeared in The Stinger of the second movie), while his comic counterpart was one of the founding members of that version of the team. As mentioned above, Kang the Conqueror was one of the earliest villains to fight the Avengers, having first appeared in 1964. In the MCU, Kang doesn't show up until Loki (2021) as "He Who Remains," with his actual Kang persona not debuting until Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania in Phase 5, nearly 15 years after the franchise first began. Because their film rights belonged to 20th Century Fox until Disney bought the company in 2019, the Fantastic Four and the X-Men were legally barred from appearing during the first 3 phases of the MCU. In the original comics, the Fantastic Four predated the Avengers (and kickstarted the entire Marvel Universe), while the X-Men debuted in 1963, the same year the Avengers first came together. Instead, the MCU has the Avengers as the team that kickstarted the universe, with the Fantastic Four not appearing until Phase 5 and the X-Men still not having a confirmed debut date. Because of this, a number of characters who came much later in the comics (in many cases decades later) like War Machine, the Guardians of the Galaxy, Kate Bishop, Kamala Khan, and Ironheart ended up making their debuts years before the FF or X-Men in this continuity. Additionally, certain characters who were originally created for those series (like Black Panther, who started off as a Fantastic Four supporting character back in The '60s) ended up having their own movie debuts ahead of them as well. A further consequence of this was that movies adapted from stories that included those characters had to omit them, meaning that the FF were not in the movie version of Civil War, and that Wolverine and the Silver Surfer could not join the fight against Thanos in Avengers: Infinity War or Avengers: Endgame, even though they did in the original story. Alternate universe iterations of Professor X and Mister Fantastic would eventually appear in 2022's Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, 14 years after the start of the series. Speaking of, Starfox made his debut in the same issue as his brother Thanos, and would go on to appear in many of the stories centered around the latter, including the aforementioned Infinity Gauntlet. Starfox doesn't appear in the MCU until The Stinger of Eternals, which takes place after Thanos' defeat and death at the hands of the Avengers in Endgame. Namor was one of Marvel's first superheroes, debuting way back in 1939, before the Marvel Universe was even an official thing. In the MCU, due to licensing issues, Namor doesn't appear until 2022's Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.

Makkii-senhai and Gigako had their initial cameo cut during the first season, so they aren't seen until the first episode of season 2. The Cubari Facaccimo, a bizarre one-eyed... thing that had something to do with Kaguya's plans for Valentine's day the previous year appeared while the student council is cleaning up at the end of their first term. In the anime, it isn't seen until they're moving back in after the election. Kyoko first appears in a one panel flashback in the manga when Ishigami mentions the middle school incident to Kaguya during their first study session. While the anime kept the dialogue alluding to the incident, it cut out the flashback, so Kyoko isn't actually seen until Osaragi's Day in the Limelight in the lead up to the sports festival. Downplayed with Shizuku. The anime has her introductory flashback take place right after the culture festival starts as opposed to right before it. Mikado's first appearance during an Imagine Spot surrounding his sister is skipped in the movie, so we don't see him until later on when a brief trip of the twins' trip to India is shown. Also, the chapter where his existance is first alluded to all the way back in the first volume wasn't adapted at all.

The sequence was cut from the film adaptation, and the pterosaurs wouldn't appear (as a very minor appearance) in the sequel film (and changed from Cearadactylus to the larger and more famous Pteranodon), while the aviary sequence wouldn't be used until the third film.

For the Empire, of the characters that Markus Wulfhart can recruit, two of them lived centuries (Rodrik L'Anguille's story took place around seven hundred years before, and an exact date for Jorek Grimm's life is not given, beyond that it was enough time for the notoriously slow to accept new technologies Dwarfs to make regular uses of his inventions) before the games' time period. For Bretonnia, Repanse de Lyonesse's story took place around five centuries before the games' events, but it's strongly implied she has been kept alive since (whether in stasis or by simply extending her lifespan) by the Lady. The Vampires Counts, being undead and all, mix this with Adaptational Early Appearance, as while Vlad Von Carstein was killed centuries before Karl Franz's coronation, he was brought back to unlife during the End Times (which happens years after Karl franz was declared Emperor). For the Greenskins, while Grom the Paunch's final fate was left ambiguous, his story happened centuries before.

Ding Dong Daddy in the comics was one of the villains faced by the original roster of the Teen Titans (Robin, Kid Flash, Aqualad, Speedy and Donna Troy), but in this show doesn't appear until the Season 5 episode "Revved Up". It's also worth pointing out that he predated the villain Mad Mod in the original comics, while this continuity as him introduced long after Mad Mod first appeared on the show. Trigon in the comics appeared early on during the New Teen Titans run by Marv Wolfman and George Perez and it was established that Raven brought this iteration of the team together to fight her father. Here, Cyborg and Beast Boy first learn of Trigon's existence by seeing a manifestation of him inside Raven's mind in the sixth first season episode "Nevermore" and the Titans don't directly face Trigon until the fourth season, with the fifth season's Origins Episode "Go" showing that the Titans' formation in this continuity had nothing to do with Trigon.

However, Cosmic Fury is the Immediate Sequel of Power Rangers Dino Fury, the adaptation of the 43d series Kishiryu Sentai Ryusoulger.

Adaptational Late Appearance / int_b8c3cc30	comment	Young Justice (2010) In the original Silver Age comics, Robin, Kid Flash and Aqualad (Garth) were founding members of the Teen Titans. The TV show, however, has a new Aqualad named Kaldur'ahm take Garth's place in this capacity, with Garth only showing up later in the first season. He eventually joins the team offscreen during the 5 year Time Skip between seasons 1 and 2. Likewise, Donna Troy, a.k.a. Wonder Girl, was the fourth member of the original Teen Titans (though a later Retcon established that Speedy had been involved before her) and joined them very shortly after they first got together. Due to legal red tape, Donna could not appear in the first season. Word of God confirmed that she also joined the team offscreen during the aforementioned Time Skip, but she didn't actually appear onscreen until the third season, when she by then became a United Nations ambassador. The Stinger of the Season 4 finale sees the debut of Supergirl in the show's continuity, long after various other heroes who were introduced after her in the comics have already shown up.

The sick Stegosaurus in the first novel is changed to a Triceratops in the film, and the Stegosaurus wouldn't appear until the second film (although some vials of frozen embryos labelled Stegasaurus are visible briefly in one scene in the first film). The sauropod that the visitors first encounter was changed from an Apatosaurus to a Brachiosaurus. Apatosaurus wouldn't appear in the film franchise until the fourth film. The Carnotaurus featured in the second novel were omitted in the second film and didn't make an appearance in the films until the fifth entry, and also lack the colour-changing abilities they were depicted with in the novel. Microceratus (then known as Microceratops) were a minor species present in the original novel, but were absent in the films up until the sixth movie (although they were featured in promotional material for the fourth film). The original novel featured an aviary sequence where the characters are attacked by pterosaurs. The sequence was cut from the film adaptation, and the pterosaurs wouldn't appear (as a very minor appearance) in the sequel film (and changed from Cearadactylus to the larger and more famous Pteranodon), while the aviary sequence wouldn't be used until the third film.

Adaptational Late Appearance / int_d5ddd6c1	comment	PokÃ©mon: The Series: Only one member of the Elite Four from PokÃ©mon Red and Blue, Bruno, appeared during the original Indigo League arc. Lorelei appeared during the filler Orange Islands arc. Lance appeared during the Johto arc, though justified as he was an important character in PokÃ©mon Gold and Silver. Agatha finally appeared at the beginning of the Battle Frontier arc. The rival of PokÃ©mon Gold and Silver is absent in the anime except for a cameo in the Japanese intro of The Legend of Thunder special. As a Mythology Gag, he's shown defeating Jimmy, a counterpart character to the games' male protagonist. Paul in the Sinnoh arc may be an Expy of this rival, having many similar attributes. Sometimes this happens to entire Pokemon species: for example, Togetic, a Generation II Pokemon does not makes its anime debut until Pokemonthe Series Rubyand Sapphire, where Misty's Togepi evolves into one before leaving her and continuing to remain in the Mirage Kingdom to protect the other Togepi there. Wallace is the eighth Gym Leader in PokÃ©mon Ruby and Sapphire and the Champion in Emerald. He was passed over during the Hoenn arc, as the anime chose to use Juan, the eighth Gym Leader of Emerald for Ash's final Gym battle in the region as part of promoting Emerald. Wallace ended up appearing in the next region, Sinnoh, as a famous coordinator (despite not even being one in PokÃ©mon Diamond and Pearl). Barry is The Rival of PokÃ©mon Diamond and Pearl. He was given an expy in Dawn's Childhood Friend Kenny. Kenny has a similar design to Barry and has his same basic role as him. However, Barry himself eventually turned up later in Diamond & Pearl to serve as another rival for Ash, making Kenny redundant, as they both use the same starter Pokemon, though unlike the games where the rival has the starter super effective on the player's starter, Kenny and Barry both use members of the same evolutionary family as Piplup, the PokÃ©mon Dawn chose, with Barry's being Empoleon, and Kenny's being a Prinplup until the Grand Festival. N and Team Plasma of PokÃ©mon Black and White and its sequels, didn't appear until after Ash was done competing in the Unova League. In this case, it wasn't the original plans of the anime staff, as Team Plasma was supposed to be introduced coming to conflict with Team Rocket in an early episode, but Japan was hit with an Earthquake just when the episodes were about to air, causing the episodes to be pulled and the plotline dropped. Of the Kalos Elite Four, only Drasna didn't make an animated appearance during the generation of PokÃ©mon the Series: XY, only to appear years later in PokÃ©mon Journeys: The Series as one of Ash's World Coronation Series opponents. Team Flare didn't appear until the start of the third year of the XY series, at which point Ash had just gotten his 7th Badge. The earlier plots at the Power Plant, the PokÃ© Ball Factory, and the Frost Cavernnote all of which had Flare Scientists as the opposition in-game are all handled by Team Rocket instead. However, their leader Lysandre was an important character in the Mega Evolution Special episodes, directing the actions of the protagonist Alain. Lisia, Wallace's niece, was introduced in PokÃ©mon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, the 6th generation remakes of Ruby and Sapphire. However, she wouldn't be introduced until PokÃ©mon Journeys. Hau of PokÃ©mon Sun and Moon appears at the start of the game and is your second best friend besides Lillie, as well as your rival. In the anime, Hau doesn't appear until over 90 episodes in, long after the anime has already finished the game's climax, with Gladion, a later rival in the game, replacing his role as Ash's main rival. Guzma, one of the main villains of Sun and Moon, took until 115 episodes into the arc to appear in the anime, by which time the show had not just dealt with the Mother Beast plot, but Necrozma as well. Marnie, one of the two main rivals in PokÃ©mon Sword and Shield, doesn't appear until late in PokÃ©mon Journeys: The Series. This also applies to her Loony Fans Team Yell by extension. Leon's brother Hop, who appears at the beginning of Sword and Shield, doesn't appear until well late in Journeys and not even as a major opponent, just as someone who would cheer for Leon at the Masters Eight Tournament. Kabu, one of Galar's Gym Leaders, appeared in PokÃ©mon Horizons: The Series, the anime series that aired during the PokÃ©mon Scarlet and Violet era of the franchise, instead of Journeys.

Adaptational Late Appearance / int_d7aab7c1	comment	Sailor Moon: In the manga, the five Sailor Senshi were introduced in quick succession, notably the first four of them. In the 90s anime, there was a gap of episodes between each Sailor Senshi, especially between Sailor Mars (Rei Hino) and Sailor Jupiter (Makoto Kino). In the manga, Makoto appeared on the final page of the fourth chapter. But in the anime, she appears in the 25th episode, meaning it took her two cours worth of episodes to make her appearance. The villains in the manga are often defeated shortly after their debut, but they last significantly longer in the anime. Which is why so many of the villains take longer to appear in the anime. Chibiusa's second coming to the present time was also significantly delayed in the anime, where she appeared in the 14th episode of the Death Buster arc. But in the manga, Chibiusa's been there since the beginning of the arc (called Infinity here), due to the fact that Chibiusa immediately returned to Usagi's time again at the end of the Black Moon arc. Similarly, Hotaru and Diana's appearances were very much delayed, due to their connection with Chibiusa. In the manga, Hotaru appeared at the end of the Infinity arc's first chapter, but in the anime, Hotaru made her first appearances in the 22nd and 23rd episodes of the Death Busters arc. In the manga, Diana came alongside Chibiusa, meaning at the end of the second arc. But in the anime, she made her first appearance in the 6th episode of the fourth arc.

"The Lost Turnabout" is later adapted as the first episode of the second season, which otherwise is an adaptation of the third game, Trials and Tribulations. It works because the defendant of "The Lost Turnabout" returns as the defendant of "Recipe for Turnabout", the third case of Trials and Tribulations. And on the subject third game, the second and third cases of the game are adapted first, followed by the first case, "Turnabout Memories", due to it being a flashback and heavily connected to the last two cases.

Adaptational Late Appearance / int_e11de2a2	comment	Doom Patrol (2019): Larry Trainor/Negative Man and Cliff Steele/Robotman were founding members of the Doom Patrol in the original comics, but here the former gets involved with the Chief shortly after the formation of the first roster (which here consists of Mento, Celsius and Lodestone, all later additions to the team in the comics) and the latter didn't even meet Larry Trainor or Rita Farr until decades after their accidents. The Brotherhood of Evil and Mr. Nobody in this continuity are predated by the Sisterhood of Dada, this continuity's take on the Brotherhood of Dada, when in the comics neither incarnation of the Brotherhood of Dada existed until long after the Brotherhood of Evil was established, and Mr. Nobody was also the founder and leader of both rosters. The show's interpretation of General Immortus doesn't show up until the fourth and final season (with her actual identity debuting in the second season), when in the original comics he was the very first villain the Doom Patrol fought. Immortus' underling Dr. Janus is loosely based on a minor adversary of the Doom Patrol from the comics and similarly makes her debut in the fourth season when her comic counterpart was also originally encountered by the team much earlier in the source material, being confronted five issues before the team's debut comic My Greatest Adventure was rebranded as Doom Patrol volume one. Casey Brinke was already a late addition due to making her debut in Gerard Way's run, but in this show doesn't appear until long after the Doom Patrol encountered and dealt with the Scants, when Gerard Way's series introduced her at the start and didn't have the Scants show up until six issues later. Mr. 104 debuts in the fourth season when his comic counterpart was first encountered by the Doom Patrol during the original Arnold Drake run.

They later appear in Chapter 25 of R1 as a bunch of broken Knightmares that are accidentally exposed to Dark Energon in a cave, killing several Vehicons and turning them into Terrorcons.

Adaptational Late Appearance / int_ecde384c	comment	The School-Live! manga reveals that Megu-nee is Dead All Along in the first few chapters. The 12-Episode Anime takes several episodes to do its reveal. Thus all moments where Miki is confrontational towards Yuuri and Yuki towards the latter's mental illness were removed, making Miki come off as overall softer. Several scenes had to be reworked to avoid spoilers as well.

However, he doesn't appear at all in the first and only season of the Mega Man: Fully Charged cartoon, only becoming the main villain of the comic book miniseries continuation of this particular continuity, after Mega Man already had a few adventures under his belt.

He was passed over during the Hoenn arc, as the anime chose to use Juan, the eighth Gym Leader of Emerald for Ash's final Gym battle in the region as part of promoting Emerald. Wallace ended up appearing in the next region, Sinnoh, as a famous coordinator (despite not even being one in PokÃ©mon Diamond and Pearl).

Adaptational Late Appearance / int_f2da188a	comment	The Batman: Robin doesn't make his debut until season four (of five), with Batgirl becoming Batman's first sidekick in season three (In the comics and most other adaptations, Dick Grayson became the first Robin before Barbara Gordon became Batgirl). This was due to a "Bat-Embargo" that DC had put in place at the time which prevented many Batman characters from appearing in multiple shows airing at the same time, and Robin was a main character in Teen Titans (2003) for most of The Batman's run. Harley Quinn was introduced in an early episode of Batman: The Animated Series called "Joker's Favor", but also wasn't introduced until season 4 of The Batman. It is uncertain if the Bat-Embargo was responsible for this one since Harley's last appearance in the DC Animated Universe was in 2003, a full year before The Batman premiered.

In Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight Trilogy however, she appears in the final chapter of the series, at a time when Bruce has already retired from the role of Batman and returns to the cape and cowl after a gap of eight years.

The 20th anniversary theatrical retelling of the first episode, PokÃ©mon: I Choose You!, omits her introductory scene and relegates her as a cameo in the closing credits along with Ash's subsequent companions (all of whom incidentally apply the inverse trope).

However, their leader Lysandre was an important character in the Mega Evolution Special episodes, directing the actions of the protagonist Alain.

However, in the anime, she didn't appear until the beginning of the Rescue Yukina arc. Kurama's mother's boyfriend was originally introduced at the same time he was, though he didn't do much besides telling Kurama that his mother was going into crisis and speed up his plan to sacrifice his life to the mirror in exchange for hers. (This line was given to a generic nurse in the anime.) Thus when Kurama mentions that she's getting married in the Sensui arc, and her honeymoon and stepson become plot points in the final arc, they don't come entirely out of nowhere.
