Sequel Displacement	comment	Basically when a series is rolling along, and doing decent, if a bit obscure. Then one installment is released, and that installment takes over the series. Occasionally, a fan might go back and look at the obscure earlier entries, but within the general fanbase, this entry is the series from the moment of its release. Often caused by a Surprisingly Improved Sequel, and related to Adaptation Displacement, More Popular Spin-Off, and Older Than They Think. The aforementioned hardcore fans sometimes declare that It's Popular, Now It Sucks!. Usually happens with video games, but can apply to series in other media. This does not count series which simply avert First Installment Wins by having a non-iconic first installment that was never displaced from popular consciousness. Exceptionally likely in video games when an old series, beloved by those who remember it but well vanished from the public consciousness, gets a new installment. See Metal Gear Solid and Street Fighter II. Contrast It's Popular, Now It Sucks!. The exact opposite of this is First Installment Wins. Obligatory Tropes Are Tools note: please don't call people stupid for finding out late and starting with a sequel in the middle of the series, therefore not knowing the previous ones, especially if there are no numbers in the title. If they refuse to acknowledge what came before, then you have a case of Fan Dumb. Starting with a sequel might lead to Early-Installment Weirdness. A No Recent Examples rule applies to this trope. Examples shouldn't be added until six months after the sequel is released, to avoid any knee-jerk reactions. For the same reason, any existing examples shouldn't be updated due to a new, more successful, sequel until six months after its release.

Sequel Displacement / int_18d31711	comment	Hawkman: Initially played straight, then subverted. Thanks to Hawkgirl's popularity from Justice League (and previously, the Silver and Bronze Age comic book Hawks), a lot of mainstream audiences were far more familiar with the space cop, Thanagarian concept of the Hawks than the original Golden Age reincarnating Hawks. While Smallville would use Carter Hall instead of Katar Hol, that didn't really do much, since it was a relatively minor role, and Justice League was just more popular in the long run. Then the Arrowverse used the reincarnating Hawks, and people became much more familiar with that version of them than the space cops.

Sequel Displacement / int_1bdeba5a	comment	X-Men: Although created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, the series didn't take off as a franchise until its relaunch by Len Wein and Dave Cockrum with the addition of new and highly popular characters like Storm, Nightcrawler, and especially Wolverine. Today, most people remember that particular team when asked to describe the X-Men and their ensuing adventures written by Chris Claremont. Adaptation Displacement is also in effect here, as the later additions to the team became far better known thanks to the movies and the various animated series. Characters like Wolverine and Storm are now largely recognizable, while far fewer people would be likely to identify someone like Polaris. Cyclops and Beast were in both, but while the original Cyclops would be instantly recognizable to modern fans, fans who only know the furry blue version of Beast introduced later might be puzzled by Hank's original (human except for large hands and feet) appearance.

In fact, there are some fans that don't have any idea it was part of a series at all. This came to a head in the 40th anniversary anime for the franchise, which mainly takes its inspiration from Yatterman. Yatterman has eclipsed the entire Time Bokan franchise to such a point where people are surprised that a non-Yatterman Time Bokan protagonist (Ippatsuman) managed to be featured in Tatsunoko vs. Capcom. It's been dialed back a bit with the release of Time Bokan 24, though.

Large numbers of players are younger people who often got introduced to the franchise by Warhammer 40,000 (if not absolutely started with AoS first upon seeing it on a store shelf) or even older generations who are completely unfamiliar with Wargaming. To the point that a large percentage of Age of Sigmar fans don't even know the titular God outside of the Realmgate Wars and his origins in Fantasy as a legendary Monarch nevermind his importance to the entire franchise as a whole. It's common to find players in recent days who get surprised when they discovered an earlier Warhammer game with a fantasy setting had existed from the 80s all the way to early 2010s especially with how 40,000 had become the face of the fictional universe.

The Simpsons would quickly become a worldwide cultural phenomenon, while these days people only talk about The Tracey Ullman Show when discussing early Simpsons cartoons. Tellingly, there are over twice as many tropes catalogued for the Simpsons shorts as there are for the show itself. An In-Universe example: in the episode "Bye Bye Nerdie", Milhouse comments that the present situation is, "like Speed 2, but with a bus instead of a boat." He later refers to the new girl with no friends as being Babe: Pig in the City.

Moreover, such people are probably even less likely to know that Jason only acquired what has since become his signature hockey mask partway through the third film (previously putting in appearances as a deformed Creepy Child in flashbacks and ambiguous dream sequences in the first film, and as a Sackhead Slasher in the second film), that he did not become a hulking Revenant Zombie until the sixth film, and that not even all of the sequels truly feature him as the main villain (in particular, the fifth film has a Jack the Ripoff killer).

Sequel Displacement / int_2f92f79b	comment	Richard III is perhaps the most egregious example of all, as throughout history it was often and is often discussed and performed as a stand-alone play, when in fact it is a direct sequel to Henry VI and almost all the characters from Richard were introduced in Henry. It is to the point where entire in-depth analyses of the play completely neglect to mention its context, and whole interpretations of Richard and other characters by actors and critics overlook the events of Henry and how those characters were shaped by it — many events in Richard make a lot more sense in light of what these characters got up to in Henry and the relationships between them are shown as quite a bit more complex and multi-layered than might first appear if Richard is watched solo.

Sequel Displacement / int_36984148	comment	When most people think of Rambo, they picture the character shirtless in the jungle, slaying hundreds of mooks with machineguns and explosive arrows. That's Rambo: First Blood Part II. In Rambo's first film, First Blood, he's fighting American lawmen and only kills one in self-defense with a rock (and the man's death wasn't even intentional, or even really directly caused by Rambo). And it's also a relatively anti-war movie, though not nearly so much as the original book, focusing on the shameful reception of Vietnam veterans upon their return home. The film ends with Rambo crying his heart out over the injustice of war and those who wage it, and in the original cut and novel's ending, being Driven to Suicide. The sequels are pure war porn.

Sequel Displacement / int_3aeb1c75	comment	Dragon Ball: While Dragon Ball Z is actually more of a rebrand than an actual sequel, it is indisputable that it's more popular than the first third covered by Dragon Ball, thanks to a strong focus on titanic fights that destroy mountains and shake the very planet, and plenty of "get hype" character power-ups and transformations along the way. This isn't exclusive to the USA: Z is more popular everywhere, even in Japan, where most memes, shout outs and merchandise come from Z. It's also very telling that almost all video games and Toei's two sequel series, GT and Super, take the most inspiration from Zs material, and most anniversary celebrations such as Dragon Ball Z Kai focus on it. Dragon Ball Zs introduction in the West also contributed to its success over the first third. The first series had several false starts in the United States, after Harmony Gold took a crack at it in 1990, though this iteration lasted five episodes due to only airing on two local East Coast channels during school hours. Later, U.S. licensee Funimation bought the rights to all three shows at once with syndication plans. FUNimation's CEO Gen Fukanaga wanted to adapt Dragon Ball Z first as that's what he saw while in Japan, but Toei insisted he start from the beginning of the story with Dragon Ball. Gen did so by adapting only the first arc before skipping to Dragon Ball Z like he wanted. The rest, as they say, is history: Z's compelling action catapulted it to success and left the original Dragon Ball in the dust.

Its name sets it up as the follow-up to Imagine Dragons' second independently-released EP, Hell and Silence. None of the songs featured there charted as highly as the most popular tunes from Continued Silence. Additionally, only one song from Hell and Silence made it onto the original releases of the band's first studio album, Night Visions, while all but two of the tracks from Continued Silence earned inclusion. Consequently, only the most hardcore Firebreathers remember it (as well as the other two independent EPs), for now.

The first film of the series, however, is a more straight horror film with an ensemble cast. Ash is just a regular college kid who happens to make it to the end. Producers were even reluctant to call the second film Evil Dead 2 out of the belief that few people had even heard of the first film. Taken up to 11 with Army of Darkness, which totally dropped the Evil Dead name as well as most of the gore to make it more marketable to mainstream audiences and got so popular as a stand-alone movie that it's not uncommon to find fans of it who don't even know the rest of the franchise exists.

Sequel Displacement / int_50a9ace1	comment	Popeye began existence as Thimble Theatre, which first saw publication in December 1919, over nine years before its most well-known (and, eventually, titular) character's introduction in 1929. Initially a stage melodrama satire which rapidly evolved into a gag-a-day domestic comedy and, later, a serialized comedy-adventure strip centering (with occasional deviations) the lethargic Ham Gravy, his headstrong longtime girlfriend Olive Oyl and her acquisitive, shortsighted older brother Castor Oyl, the strip acquired a modest cult following over the ensuing decade but was largely removed from the mainstream culture of the period. Upon Popeye's introduction and popularization at the turn of the 1930s, however, the strip received an exponential boost in popularity, rapidly spawning a multimedia franchise and elevating its titular sailor (alongside Olive Oyl, by then retooled as his romantic interest) to a cultural icon. The first decade of Thimble Theatre (alongside much of its cast, save for Olive) has resultantly been eclipsed in ensuing decades and has (unlike the Popeye-focused 1930s run) received only a handful of fragmentary official reprints.

The Spy Who Loved Me for Roger Moore (third film in the role, again). GoldenEye (with Pierce Brosnan) eclipsed its immediate predecessors of the Timothy Dalton era. It also eclipsed the rest of Brosnan's run. Skyfall for Daniel Craig (third film for him, see a pattern here?), though Casino Royale defends itself pretty well against it.

Sequel Displacement / int_5b8afa32	comment	GaoGaiGar is well-known amongst anime fans for restarting the Super Robot Genre to the Hot-Blooded days of yore and is one of the most popular Humongous Mecha series out there. It also happens to be the eighth and last (not counting GaoGaiGar FINAL or the Vaporware Baan Gaan) installment of the Brave Series. Much of this is due to being the only show in the series to be released in Western countries - the previous seven installments were only exported to South and East Asian countries - as well as the only one to appear in the Super Robot Wars series until 2017's Super Robot Wars V.

Sequel Displacement / int_5bfd17b7	comment	Degrassi: To this day there are fans still realizing that Degrassi: The Next Generation was in fact not the original version of the series and that it is a revival of a show from the eighties. This example might be explained via Pop-Culture Isolation: in its homeland of Canada, the original Degrassi was a prime-time smash hit and a cultural landmark, but aired to relative obscurity stateside on PBS. The Next Generation, meanwhile, was the one that got immensely popular in the United States airing on The N, and the loudest in the Degrassi fanbase are Americans who watched The Next Generation on the N in the 2000s. Add its reputation for starring a young Drake, and this is why The Next Generation became so disproportionately big compared to the series it spun off from. Australia can be considered an aversion to this, as many Australian Degrassi fans refer to the original series and not any of its spinoffs.

Sequel Displacement / int_6ac55ec7	comment	Though every edition of Dungeons & Dragons has a pretty firm following, the many Newbie Booms over the years mean that the most "iconic" edition can range heavily. But even when there were only a few products available, Advanced Dungeons & Dragons was far more popular than Basic, which was a modified version of the oldest ruleset. For a while, it became pretty common for groups to switch up to the newest edition, or at least for new players to prefer the new one—but 2000's 3rd Edition (or more specifically, 3.5) bucked that trend and refused to lose popularity when 4th Edition rolled around, due to 4th being a majorly Contested Sequel, and seemed to be essentially the "default" vision of the game until 5th Edition showed up in 2014.

Sequel Displacement / int_7fbf9019	comment	Steins;Gate is a sequel to Chaos;Head that ended up being far more popular in the West than its predecessor. In addition to Steins;Gate largely being considered a better story overall, one of the biggest reasons for Chaos;Head's comparative lack of popularity is that its anime adaptation is by and large considered to be subpar, even without the source material taken into account. Most visual novels become popular outside of Japan as a result of people enjoying their anime adaptations, so the fact that Steins;Gate's adaptation is generally very well received gives it a major advantage over Chaos;Head in terms of popularity. Also, since Steins;Gate is only connected to Chaos;Head in the first place due to them taking place in the same world, all of the Continuity Nods made to Chaos;Head in Steins;Gate won't be understood by anyone unfamiliar with the former story, and you don't need to read Chaos;Head first in order to understand Steins;Gate at all, most Steins;Gate fans aren't even aware that the two stories are connected in the first place. Further hurting its accessibility is that, as a direct result of the sequel displacement, Steins;Gate received an official translation long before Chaos;Head did. Further cementing this is the fact that Chaos;Child, a thematic sequel with much stronger narrative ties to Chaos;Head also managed to get localized before the original release.

Due to its surprising popularity in the west, most new fans are more likely to know of the earlier parts first. In fact, Viz released Parts 1 and 2. J-Stars Victory VS averts this by including Jonathan and Joseph, the protagonists of Parts 1 and 2, as the representatives of the whole franchise (which presumably ties into the anime adaptations mentioned above). There were apparently plans to include Jotaro and Dionote Though it's unclear whether he would have been the Part 1 or Part 3 incarnation as DLC, but they never materialized.

New and returning fans may have been even more confused by subplots born of elements introduced in the period between 1986 and 1992.

Sequel Displacement / int_9a27658	comment	Extra Credits for the longest time was primarily a gaming-centric Analysis Channel, but around 2013, they introduced the history centric Extra History with the Punic Wars as the subject matter. The developers of Total War: Rome II had asked them to teach history to act as a partial marketing campaign, although they graciously said that the Extra Credits crew didn't have to mention their game. James Portnow and his team obliged happily, and the series became an immensely popular side-series for much of its time on the channel.Overtime, the popularity of Extra History would vastly outpace the popularity of the channel's original gaming analysis videos, to the point that only one gaming analysis video out of nearly fifty would be among their most popular videos. This was only further helped by the gaming aspect being perceived as undergoing Seasonal Rot due to a number of controversial topics and videos, an unwillingess to correct mistakes, and a lack of cohesion due to the original crew leaving. By contrast Extra History remained consistently popular due to its blend of humor, charm and historical knowledge, and willingness to admit to any falsehoods that were made due to mistakes in research and Artistic License. The popularity of Extra History was such that on December 5, 2022, Matt announced that the channel would be rebranded as Extra History, with the original gaming focus shifted onto a brand new channel.

Rich Evans identifies his father as the director of Blues Brothers 2000, and upon being told he also directed the first Blues Brothers, lets out an incredulous "There was a FIRST ONE!?"

Sequel Displacement / int_aaede2f	comment	Naturally, most people are unaware of the 1986 reboot The Man of Steel or anything that continues from it. When The Death of Superman was released after a flurry of media coverage unheard of for a comic book saga, some more familiar with earlier comics or the character's various film and TV incarnations may have been confused to learn that Ma & Pa Kent were alive or that Superman and Lois were officially a couple with her knowing his secret identity or that Supergirl wasn't Superman's cousin but a shape-shifting life-form who was dating long-haired redhead Lex Luthor. New and returning fans may have been even more confused by subplots born of elements introduced in the period between 1986 and 1992.

Sequel Displacement / int_b0028436	comment	JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: The Breakthrough Hit everyone remembers are from Stardust Crusaders onward. Part 1 and Part 2 are a lot more like Fist of the North Star than what the series later became. It's to the point that, in America at least, early attempts to localize the series started with Part 3 and ended halfway through Part 4. This leads to a lot of Marth Debuted in "Smash Bros." in some discussion forums. The video game adaptations have it even worse: the first two games were adaptations of Stardust Crusaders (though young Joseph from Battle Tendency was playable in the latter), then came an adaptation of Golden Wind for the PS2, and then in 2006, there was finally an adaptation of Phantom Blood. Since then, the games have usually featured a variety of characters from the different installments, albeit with Jotaro usually still being the central protagonist. Case in point: Eyes of Heaven features all eight JoJos up to that point (as well as a huge number of villains and supporting characters) as playable fighters, but the final showdown in Story Mode still comes down to Jotaro and DIO. Also notable on Jump Super Stars: The first game had Jotaro and DIO (The Hero and Big Bad of Stardust Crusaders, respectively) as playable and nobody else. The sequel promised including all the chapters, and they delivered... by making the other mains Assist Characters, but DIO and Jotaro still as the only playables. While Dio is also the Big Bad of Phantom Blood, it is his Stardust Crusaders incarnation that is most... iconic. In fact, every one of his panels and almost all of his moves come from Part 3. Somewhat alleviated by the 2012-onward anime adaptation, which finally adapts the series in its proper order. Due to its surprising popularity in the west, most new fans are more likely to know of the earlier parts first. In fact, Viz released Parts 1 and 2. J-Stars Victory VS averts this by including Jonathan and Joseph, the protagonists of Parts 1 and 2, as the representatives of the whole franchise (which presumably ties into the anime adaptations mentioned above). There were apparently plans to include Jotaro and Dionote Though it's unclear whether he would have been the Part 1 or Part 3 incarnation as DLC, but they never materialized.

Sequel Displacement / int_bc7736c8	comment	Suicide Squad: The original team introduced in 1959 has been completely overshadowed by the retooled team introduced in the 80's, a team of supervillains kept on a government leash and assigned to do covert missions that would be too dangerous for regular soldiers. This is a stark contrast to the original team, who were just a regular band of adventurers, and with the exception of Rick Flag, Jr, contained none of the familiar faces from the better known lineup. Original team members Jess Bright, Dr. Hugh Evans, and Karin Grace will get a resounding "who?" when brought up to non-comics fans, while most of them have heard of the retooled lineup's members such as Amanda Waller, Captain Boomerang, Deadshot, Bronze Tiger, or Harley Quinn.

Sequel Displacement / int_c7f59f7d	comment	Teen Titans: The original run starring Robin, Kid Flash, Wonder Girl, Aqualad, and later Speedy - has largely been displaced by The '80s The New Teen Titans (which got rid of several of the previous Titans and introduced Cyborg, Starfire and Raven, and also added former Doom Patrol member Beast Boy to the cast), though many comic fans know that the group were True Companions pre-New 52. This became even worse when the Teen Titans (2003) animated series came out and it was based on The New Teen Titans. Aqualad and Speedy were included in the cartoon but are Titans East members, while Kid Flash appeared in one episode but never even interacted with the Titans. Wonder Girl was planned to appear but was banned due to the Wonder Woman embargo, though she did appear in the Teen Titans Go! comic spinoff. The misconception is so strong that when Starfire was added to Fortnite in 2022, the company's official Twitter account referred to her as a "founding member of the Teen Titans."

And with good reason, as Q took place before the Ultra Series made a Genre Shift into straight-up Superhero action, and as such comes across closer in tone to The Outer Limits or The X-Files.

Sequel Displacement / int_ce50887e	comment	Dragon Ball Zs introduction in the West also contributed to its success over the first third. The first series had several false starts in the United States, after Harmony Gold took a crack at it in 1990, though this iteration lasted five episodes due to only airing on two local East Coast channels during school hours. Later, U.S. licensee Funimation bought the rights to all three shows at once with syndication plans. FUNimation's CEO Gen Fukanaga wanted to adapt Dragon Ball Z first as that's what he saw while in Japan, but Toei insisted he start from the beginning of the story with Dragon Ball. Gen did so by adapting only the first arc before skipping to Dragon Ball Z like he wanted. The rest, as they say, is history: Z's compelling action catapulted it to success and left the original Dragon Ball in the dust.

Sequel Displacement / int_f9ab713d	comment	Outside of Japan, this occurred to Osomatsu-san. It's a sequel series to the classic series Osomatsu-kun meant to celebrate the mangaka's 80th birthday. It ended up a Sleeper Hit both internationally and in Japan. Most countries didn't get exports of any Osomatsu-kun series until after Osomatsu-san, and even if they did it's unlikely most fans remember it as much as Japanese viewers. The first episode makes it clear that the series is a sequel, however many non-Japanese fans simply think they're making fun of 1960s anime in general. Many jokes go over peoples heads because they aren't acquainted with the older series (Osomatsu-san is essentially what Dog Sees God is to Peanuts—a sequel of a family friendly work where everyone is older and the jokes are more adult oriented).

Sequel Displacement / int_fcfb2c78	comment	Free! is actually a Time Skip series meant to take place years after the plot of the KA Bunko novel High☆Speed! (2013). It's not as noticeable since the story focused on most of the cast in middle school rather than in high school, but Haruka and Rin do make references to some plot points in the book. The success of the first season led to KA Bunko trying to mitigate this by rereleasing the the first book and releasing a second volume detailing more about what happened since the first's end, with them integrating some of the show-only characters into the plot. The second book was even made into a film— High★Speed! - Free! Starting Days, though it came at the cost of Free! veterans wondering why the film was about middle schoolers rather than the characters they've grown accustomed to.
