Better Than Canon / Sugar Wiki | comment |
Most fans just aren't content to accept absolutely everything the canon offers. In fact, you'd be hard-pressed to find a fan that doesn't have any complaints about a work, no matter how minor. But what happens when the amount of complaints being thrown at the work start to outweigh the compliments? Well, you might find yourself with fans starting to throw out ideas about how it can improve, or things it should have done in order to maintain quality. These fans may then run to their word processors and start writing out exactly how their ideas would play out. And they may soon discover that others in the community not only like their creative re-interpretation of the original work, but are anxiously awaiting for more... because they think it's actually better than the source material. Better Than Canon refers to fanworks that are viewed as better than the source material as a result of it ignoring and/or rewriting the disliked aspects of a fictional canon in order to "improve" upon it. Of course, this isn't limited to works that are intentionally meant to be some level of Take That! to the canon. Sometimes the writer has no qualms with the source material, but still find themselves thinking What If? as a simple creative exercise. In either case, results may vary. The following tropes are likely to contribute to being seen as Better Than Canon: Adaptation Distillation: It removes or minimizes unpopular characters, plotlines, Filler and Padding, and other contentious aspects leaving just what makes the series popular. See The Abridged Series. Adaptation Expansion: It adds content that improves the depth and quality of the setting, such as greater Worldbuilding, turning minor/underdeveloped characters or mentions into something fully fleshed out, and giving underutilized characters and plots due focus. Crossover/Fusion Fic/Patchwork Fic: The work combines separate series and Alternate Continuity, or aspects of them, to produce a story that would be difficult or impossible in official works due to the legal complications. Darker and Edgier/Dark Fic: It includes more mature content and subject matter than the source material would allow. Deconstruction Fic: It Deconstructs the source material pointing out its problematic or illogical aspects either to criticize it and/or make a better story out of it. Fix Fic: It focuses on fixing disliked aspects of canon, such as fixing contentious characters and storylines or outright replacing them with something better. Periphery Demographic is a common contributor to the creation of and reception as Better Than Canon fanworks due to having tastes and interests different than what canon can reliably provide. If you meet people who seem to label a lot of fan works as this, you may be dealing with Fanwork-Only Fans. When some fans get the chance to force this on the official work, it's Running the Asylum and Armed with Canon. If the creator decides it's a good idea as well, it may become Ascended Fanon. See Fanon Discontinuity, Fan-Disliked Explanation, Audience-Alienating Ending, Fan-Preferred Couple, and Death of the Author for attitudes to the source material that can cause fanworks to be seen as better. Also see Fanfic Fuel and Fanfic Magnet common sources of such fics. Compare Improved Second Attempt for official/licensed works that improve upon the original material and Salvaged Story for in-continuity fixes, and Popular Game Variant and Come for the Game, Stay for the Mods for gameplay as opposed to narrative that's seen as superior to the official. Contrast Canon Defilement. Some of the works on the Fan Fic Recommendations pages might be this. |

Better Than Canon / Sugar Wiki / int_13a499b8 | comment |
Multiple readers have expressed the opinion that the versions of many kaiju showcased in The Bridge are their favorite versions of the character. Monster X in particular gets this treatment, thanks to sympathetic backstory and ongoing subplot as opposed to his Diabolus ex Nihilo status in the movie. | |

The Worf Effect | |
Better Than Canon / Sugar Wiki / int_178ca149 | comment |
In canon, Celestia and Luna are rather flat characters who rarely ever get prominent roles beyond providing exposition to the Mane Six, and when they try to help against major threats, they tend to suffer The Worf Effect and get defeated easily. "The Bridge" features them as main members of the cast with plenty of focus and development, such as Luna forming a relationship with Godzilla Junior and Celestia joining the heroes in the human world for the "Winter War" arc, and their power is greatly respected with several scenes showcasing that they can keep up alongside or against the various Kaiju and other villains. | |

In one Alternate Timeline from "Starduck Crusaders 2", Joseph is the one to beat DIO by using his Stand, Hermit Purple, to suddenly stop time. While DIO is frozen, Joseph imbues Hermit Purple with Hamon and fatally breaks him in half. Compared to him being curb-stomped by DIO in the original source material, and you'll understand why people preferred this ending. | |

Poor Communication Kills | |
Better Than Canon / Sugar Wiki / int_1c445e86 | comment |
For readers who disliked Luan for her cruel April Fool's Day pranks, this is mitigated in chapter 15 when Luan told Dr. Lopez that none of the family members ever told her how harsh her pranks are. It's stated that the reason why she's like this every April Fool's day is because of bullies who harassed her in elementary school. But the way she takes it out on her family results in Dr. Lopez calling Luan out for it. | |

The same can be said for Miu Iruma.

Especially considering how the canon mistreated her where her insecurities were Played for Laughs and everyone agreed that there was nothing to like about her even after her death. | |

The fic gives this treatment to the entire G3 world. G3 is hated by a vast majority of fans, Gen 3.5 even more so. This fic successfully makes them into complex characters the audience can feel for.

Better Than Canon / Sugar Wiki / int_39b3b172 | comment |
For many, the Sissy Fight between Tifa and Scarlet in the original is a source of mockery, on top of being an annoyingly hard minigame with the only reward being the satisfaction of beating Scarlet's arrogant face to a pulp and nothing else, as well as the fact that Tifa doesn't need to simply resort to slapping Scarlet when she could just punch the arrogant bitch like the super-strong martial artist that she is. Here, though, she does just that when Scarlet demeans and slaps her one too many times, and off the cannon, no less. | |

Mr. Popo wasn't really disliked in the original series, but some considered him to be a rather Flat Character who didn't get a chance to do much and only existed to be a servant to Kami. Here however, he's given a great dose of Adaptational Villainy and is responsible for some of the scariest (and funniest) moments in the show, gaining him lots of fans. | |

Unrelated in the Adaptation | |
Better Than Canon / Sugar Wiki / int_3de32c52 | comment |
The trilogy's focus on bloodlines and Force legacy is dismissed in two major ways. First being that Rey is from nowhere (her connection to Palpatine seems to have been abandoned completely) and is absurdly strong in the Force. Meanwhile, Aliana is actually very weak in the Force and yet has proven to have a mastery over it that rivals most of the "birthright" characters. Aliana even scoffs at the idea that a bloodline actually matters. This dismissal becomes all-encompassing when Aliana learns that she was sterilized by her injuries on the Supremacy and is unbothered by it. She dismisses Leia's questions about her bloodline by saying that if she wanted kids she'd just adopt. | |

Adaptational Heroism | |
Better Than Canon / Sugar Wiki / int_3f45f1e6 | comment |
Downplayed with Korekiyo. In the second class trial, some readers prefer how their character was handled compared to the game, particularly if they weren't fans of the reveals regarding them in the game's third class trial. On the one hand they were given more dignity and honor to their actions and were a bit more sympathetic here, but in exchange Kiyo's romance with his sister, more horrifying elements like planning to murder Kaede after their second Free Time Event, and his general history as a Serial Killer are left as mere implications which can leave a sense of wasted potential or feel like an over-reliance on the readers knowing their "story" from the game. | |

Deus ex Machina | |
Better Than Canon / Sugar Wiki / int_3fca462c | comment |
The Grand Magic Games Arc has been better received for a multitude of reasons. For starters, the Fairy Tail members actually train for three months instead of wasting time in the Celestial Spirit World. This, combined with actual logic being applied instead of a number of Deus ex Machina and The Power of Friendship, along with proper explanations besides one side simply being stronger than the other, many of Fairy Tail's victories in the tournament are seen as legitimate and well-earned. In particular, the final fight in the battle royale between Sting and Juvia has been praised due to the Games actually ending with a fight instead of Sting simply giving up, as well as Juvia getting a well-needed big fight and time in the spotlight. |

What Could Have Been | |
Better Than Canon / Sugar Wiki / int_453871ec | comment |
7 Days of Summer is one of the most popular mods, roughly based on early scripts for the novel. In terms of volume, it has not only long surpassed the original, but is one of the most text-heavy visual novels written in an Eastern European language — and is still largely incomplete. It offers a number of new quirks such as Multiple-Choice Past of the protagonist and route variations (for each girl, there is a brand new romantic route, as well as so-called "classic" and "original" routes), in addition to greatly expanding the lore of Everlasting Summer. | |

Catra and Adora's character arcs. Catra's journey from a selfish Broken Ace Anti-Hero to someone who tries her hardest to become someone selfless and more open with her feelings in spite of a huge chip in her shoulder is seen by many as more compelling than Canon!Adora's relatively straightforward Hero's Journey. Meanwhile, Adora starting out as a genuinely compassionate and moral Anti-Villain bordering on Token Good Teammate only to slowly succumb to dark magic, hatred, and madness is seen as even more tragic than Canon!Catra's character arc, particularly when we see her genuine friendships with Scorpia and Entrapta begin to disintegrate. | |

Many people thought that Rip Van Winkle's death in her home series was uncomfortable, with it being portrayed with rape undertone note She was pinned with multiple hands, unable to do anything and afraid for her life as he slowly and tauntingly took his time licking up her blood as it dripped out her body before finally biting her, which she blushes at. Here, he only taunts her long enough to deliver his Pre-Mortem One-Liner, then just impales her and is done with it. | |

Arc Fatigue | |
Better Than Canon / Sugar Wiki / int_51fa57ba | comment |
Some fans have argued this due to the series' faster pacing (which was one of the main sources of Arc Fatigue), witty dialogue, Continuity Nods to the Expanded Universe (particularly towards the movies), voice acting that rivals and sometimes even surpasses the original dub, and the fact the series tends to make fun of certain glaring plot holes in the source material series and sometimes justifies a few of them in the abridged series. It should be noted, however, that TFS is adamantly (and occasionally vehemently) against the series being seen as this, as they have admitted multiple times that they do not think of DBZA as a replacement to the original nor do they want their fans to consider it as such. | |

Chickification | |
Better Than Canon / Sugar Wiki / int_5740acf7 | comment |
The Fairy Dance arc is perhaps the prime example of this. In the original series, the arc is considered, even by fans, to be the low point of the series, with bland or annoying characters, the aforementioned Chickification of Asuna and Big Brother Attraction of Suguha, a nonsensical Player Versus Player faction war that gets treated like a real war despite presumably just being role-playing, some gratuitous fanservice scenes, and more. The abridged version gives the side characters more interesting and varied personalities, reworks the roles of Asuna and Suguha, gives the faction war a more believable reason for existing, and generally makes the arc one that fans want to see more of. | |

Dark Is Not Evil | |
Better Than Canon / Sugar Wiki / int_575fd5e2 | comment |
The series fixes the Dark Is Not Evil Aesop, which is extremely broken in the games. In the games, pretty much all problems were caused by darkness, examples of pure light (the Princesses of Heart, Ventus) are purely good and the closest examples of Light Is Not Good are Eraqus, whose Black-and-White Morality was justified multiple times, and the Master of Masters, who is so ambiguous no one can say where his allegiances lie. Here, light does cause problems, courtesy of Xemnas, who is a heart of pure light, and the games' examples of hearts of pure light now also have darkness in their hearts, to emphasize better that light and darkness are a balance that must be kept at all times, and evil is caused by upsetting the balance in favor of either light or darkness (Xemnas is a heart of pure light, and he's just as bad, if not worse than in the games). In fact, the problems caused by the Heartless can be pinned on the light, since the Heartless are merely trying to fight back against the tyranny of light that oppressed and tortured them. | |

Castlevania (Franchise) | |

Castlevania: Castlevania: Judgment is a rather controversial spin-off fighting game in the Castlevania franchise that many fans of the series would like to pretend never existed. One fan went on to create Castlevania Fighter, a freeware fangame made on M.U.G.E.N, and one that many Castlevania fans has considered to be a better fighting game than Judgment. Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow and Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin: While the games are generally well-received, many hardcore Castlevania fans despise the art direction change for Dawn of Sorrow, going from the realistic and gothic artstyle by Ayami Kojima in the previous game to an anime artstyle which also carried over for Portrait of Ruin's art direction. A couple of modders worked together to create Castlevania: Choir of Redemption, a pair of ROM hacks called Dawn of Dignity and Portrait of Elegance that replaces the anime-styled character portraits with redrawn ones in the style of Ayami Kojima's art for their respective games. A majority of the games' fans consider these ROM hacks a vast improvement over the default anime-styled portraits. |

Dying Moment of Awesome | |
Better Than Canon / Sugar Wiki / int_6682d6e4 | comment |
Cliffjumper's death has a bit more weight to it here, as we get to spend much more time with him and he goes out like a badass instead of his cartoon death, which only served to set up an Anyone Can Die atmosphere that really only affected the bad guys. | |

Franchise Original Sin | |
Better Than Canon / Sugar Wiki / int_6c3c8acf | comment |
Xehanort was also fixed a lot; a lot of Franchise Original Sin were tied to it.First, the reveal that his dark side, Ansem, is the first game's Big Bad is actually foreshadowed him, with him replacing Maleficent in some scenes, including the one introducing the Disney Villain Council.Second, in Crypto's series, there's no character really named "Ansem". Dark Seeker Ansem was a false identity made by Xehanort, and Ansem the Wise underwent Adaptation Name Change, now being named Gnosis.Third, he is unable to time travel in Crypto's series, and Young Xehanort was turned into a Living Memory.Finally, what outraged nearly everyone is that Xehanort was retconned in the last minute of his life into a Well-Intentioned Extremist and got no comeuppance to his atrocities, including killing Kairi right before the retcon. In Crypto's series, only Ansem and Xemnas needed comeuppance, which they get, and Xehanort himself is a Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds Fallen Hero. | |

Adaptation Personality Change | |
Better Than Canon / Sugar Wiki / int_6fbe85e6 | comment |
In the original series, Nappa only appeared in the Saiyan Saga and was mostly forgotten about, however TFS gave the character a MASSIVE boost in popularity due to his Adaptation Personality Change from a brutish oaf of a warrior into a completely idiotic Manchild whose lines are absolutely hilarious. He proved to be so popular that TFS even brought him back from the dead in this series! | |

An armless Muhammad Avdol's return in the "Golden Cringe" series as a supporting character was loved by viewers for his subdued comedy and surprising victories in battle. This is compared to his portrayal in Stardust Crusaders, where he did not have much to do in combat and was the first casualty near the end. | |

One of the issues some people had with Legendary Defender was that Keith becoming a member of the Blade of Marmora detracted from his time with the Paladins, along with the fact he was Put on a Bus and this we weren't allowed to see his training. Here, it's Nunnally who joins the Blades, meaning that the core Paladin lineup is preserved while also giving another character we much needed focus. | |

Periphery Demographic | |
Better Than Canon / Sugar Wiki / int_792b66e2 | comment |
There's plenty of comments that praise the VHS videos as being more effective horror than the recent FNAF games, thanks to the intense atmosphere and ghastly imagery. Some even joke about Squimp's content being too frightening for the main series's younger Periphery Demographic to handle, due to being more used to the comparatively tame horror of FNAF. | |

Breakout Villain | |
Better Than Canon / Sugar Wiki / int_7e22477f | comment |
Breakout Villain or not, there are fans out there who have expressed a strong dislike of Scourge the Hedgehog, such as arguing that he came off as too obnoxious, petty or power-hungry (and even implicitly abusive towards his romantic partners) to be considered a proper Shadow Archetype of the more easygoing Sonic, arguing that a lot of of his accomplishments in-universe came more as a result of luck or The Worf Effect than his own skills and effort, or finding his supposed Freudian Excuse of not getting enough attention from his father as too corny to properly humanize him compared to how his Sonic lost his family, friends and home to war from as young as the age of five. While this work doesn't change his canon personality that much, his more hateful or aggressive traits are toned down to mere Deadpan Snarker levels, he generally isn't taken seriously by the film or even the other villains in the cast (even Cubot finds him whiny), and his arrogant actions and attempts to be taken seriously more often than not result in self-inflicted misery. His portrayal here can arguably be compared to that of Vegeta from Dragon Ball Z Abridged: a Jerkass whose petty attitude and inferiority complex defines him as The Chew Toy of the cast. | |

Eldritch Abomination | |
Better Than Canon / Sugar Wiki / int_8774fb47 | comment |
In canon, the Godzilla vs King Ghidorah fight considered a massive disappointment, largely consisting of Ghidorah statically grappling with Godzilla. In this version, Godzilla being far more expressive helps sell the grapples that do happen as much more painful, and Ghidorah gets to show off a lot more of his Eldritch Abomination nature and power set. The finale and King Ghidorah's demise is also noted as being far more satisfying that the rather anti-climatic way he was beaten in the actual anime. | |

Quirky Miniboss Squad | |
Better Than Canon / Sugar Wiki / int_889cff96 | comment |
While The Turks are general really popular with the fandom, it has stuck out like a sore thumb that they, particularly Reno and Rude, end up being massive Karma Houdinis after their literal war crime of dropping a plate on Sector 7. At worst, the only punishment the Turks are forced to face is if the player pushes for an option boss fight with them in their final appearances, but even then the entire fight gets Played for Laughs. In the Big Damn Movie here, Reno and Rude are both remourseful for their past actions, even going through the proces of getting everyone's Ultimate Weapons off screen except for Cloud's. Even after all of that, Tifa particularly tells them they still aren't forgiven and they'll have to do more work to make up for all the lives they took. | |

Character Rerailment | |
Better Than Canon / Sugar Wiki / int_a1aa3d27 | comment |
In a Character Rerailment sense, the more unhinged and unrestrained traits Naugus had in both Archie continuities have been toned down, and acts more in line with his original portrayal from Sonic the Hedgehog (SatAM) as a playfully maniacal yet composed schemer. His Butt-Monkey elements from the post-reboot Archie continuity have also been toned down to about the same level as the rest of the cast. | |

Hans' portrayal is considered a step up from not only his appearance in Kingdom Hearts III, but also his portrayal in the original film. Both his charming facade and his more sinister machinations are explored in detail and he comes off as a more engaging antagonist as a result. His status as a Nobody puts his Lack of Empathy in a new context without undermining his villainy. | |

Due to the absurdity of the UAC not issuing flashlight attachments for their weapons, the Duct Tape mod (which puts a flashlight onto your bigger guns, one that doesn't fully eclipse the regular flashlight though) is considered an essential mod for many.

Status Quo Is God | |
Better Than Canon / Sugar Wiki / int_a6e8221e | comment |
Many fans consider this series to be better than FIM in its entirety. The lack of Status Quo Is God and the fact that the events of one "episode"/chapter will have consequences on the next means that the Character Development is MUCH stronger. The world-building is more detailed, the Emotional Torque is off the charts. The morals are far more mature and are actually woven into the narrative, not just tacked on as an Aesop. The battle scenes regularly outclass even the best of what Friendship is Magic has to offer and the Villains and their arcs get the time they need to allow satisfying conclusions. Add to this the fact that The POV series has done stories from later seasons (The plot of Reharmonised Ponies about the Mane Six coming to better understand their element is remarkably similar to season four's plot. Despite Reharmonised being written during Season two, but better. | |

Face–Heel Turn | |
Better Than Canon / Sugar Wiki / int_af3ea0e3 | comment |
The show has been praised for Yami Yugi's character arc in season four. While both iterations of the character share the same Fatal Flaw of pride, in the original anime it was never truly treated as something he had to work on after season one. This made his Face–Heel Turn in his duel with Raphael come out of left field since there was nothing at stake at the time. This also made Raphael's claims that he could have been a wicked pharaoh odd since Yami had spent series as a kind, heroic character who had his moments of Good Is Not Nice at the worst of times. The abridged series always exaggerated his pride and made him much more of a Jerkass at best, Heroic Comedic Sociopath at worst. This ends up making Raphael's claims a little easier to swallow, and his Face–Heel Turn more in character. Later on, Dartz's breaking speech is so effective because he's absolutely right. | |

Epic Fail | |
Better Than Canon / Sugar Wiki / int_b4eff8a8 | comment |
The Key of the Starry Sky arc has the battles between Fairy Tail and the Legion Corps more evenly matched rather than the embarrassing defeats the former suffered in canon. The latter repeatedly need backup to gain the upper hand and tend to lose whenever they underestimate the guild wizards, properly representing the protagonists' competence. It's only when the Neo Oracion Seis show up that the protagonists start getting clobbered, and even then, it's displayed as the villains being powerful rather than the heroes failing, managing to turn the tables once they're given time to prepare in their rematches. | |

This is the general consensus on Xemnas' characterization.

Chilled's characterization in canon is more or less Freeza who's just more eager to kill (which is saying something) and ultimately very forgettable.

Not only does she clearly miss the closeness she had with Lincoln as small kids, but when Lynn found out about Ronnie bullying Lincoln, not only was she pissed but called the girl out for mistreating the object of her affection (and started quietly seething when she realized that it was indirectly Lori's fault since she did the same thing to Bobby before they paired up, making him think that such behavior was the way things worked) and was so furiously protective that Ronnie apparently thought Lynn would murder her for punching Lincoln in the eye after kissing her (which itself is portrayed not as her being malicious but being panicked by being kissed by her crush, making the apology steak more genuine). | |

Due to it being written by D.C. Fontana, the Star Trek novel Vulcan's Glory, which covers Spock's first days on the Enterprise under the command of Captain Pike, has been considered better than ''Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, which covers a similar time period. | |

Although he was already somewhat popular before TFS got their hands on him, Dr. Wheelo's turn from a rather generic Mad Scientist into a giant case of The Woobie and Adaptational Nice Guy was very well-liked. | |

Immortality Seeker | |
Better Than Canon / Sugar Wiki / int_d959f4db | comment |
Many fans call the VHS' portrayal of William Afton better (and scarier) than the canonical William Afton. In the games, Afton is more of a Immortality Seeker, who is sometimes depicted as a full-on Mad Scientist, with an Evil Brit accent. Here, however, Afton is a much more mundane and realistic Serial Killer who murders children because he can't murder his son Michael in revenge of his favorite son Joseph. | |

As it gives Kairi a major role, removes the convolution caused by Xehanort's time-traveling, and integrates the Disney characters in more major battles (the battle for Hollow Bastion in KH1, the Battle of 1000 Heartless in KH2), many fans consider this series an improvement over the original. | |

The reveal of the show version of Starswirl the Bearded as a jaded and crabby old man in need of a reality check left some readers remarking they preferred the comic and book based, grandfatherly Parental Substitute to Princess Celestia and Luna his Bridge incarnation is. | |

How some feel all the hilarious dialogue and constant lampshading make the original look boring and nonsensical by comparison (even more so if you think the 4Kids dub was already bad). Some fans unofficially consider TAS the "definitive" version of the YGO anime, which may be one reason why Konami started officially exporting the uncensored Japanese version of the actual series (as a possible attempt to break its Animation Age Ghetto and "narmy bowdlerization" stigma), to the point that TAS and the official anime cross-promote each other. | |

Satellite Character | |
Better Than Canon / Sugar Wiki / int_e7cb46d3 | comment |
Many reviewers have also praised the fic for better handling many second-generation and third-generation characters compared to the canon series, such as removing Topher's Satellite Character status to Chris, making Sugar a better villain, improving Sammy's Character Development, keeping Dave in-character during his failed romance with Sky, giving Dakota better treatment and having her contribute to the game more, and handling Mike's mental disorder better. | |

Better Than Canon / Sugar Wiki / int_eb8ec7c8 | comment |
One of the big improvements is the characterization; in the original, protagonist Kirito is often critized for being "too bland" and is often described as an "Overpowered Gary Stu", while his abridged self undergoes a character arc about overcoming his Jerkassery and becoming a better, mentally stronger person, and the death of Sachi actually affects him beyond the story she appears in. For another example, Asuna also goes from "badass fighter who undergoes Chickification" to continuing to be feisty and unstable, and her relationship with Kirito feels more natural. Suguha has her Big Brother Attraction arc toward Kirito, generally seen as gross fetish fuel, replaced with a more gripping one about two siblings growing to hate each other because of their twisted home environment. And minor, one-note characters are given personalities to make them more memorable. | |
