Re: Sailor Moon Crystal

First anime canon is still canon.
Manga canon is still canon.
Crystal canon is canon too.
They're just different canons and that's ok, really.

Original canon > adaptations.

DA

I've read some things about the manga that make me glad the anime exists as an alternative. The adaptation doesn't sully the creator's vision, but it does offer respite for those who didn't like everything about that vision. But then my favorite fandom has about five different canons that often get merged because the strict game canon is far too shallow to play around in, so I'm grateful to adaptations that add unique content.

Same here. The original anime handle a lot of things better than the manga did. Anyway, what fandom are you talking about? That sounds like an interesting situation.

Devil May Cry. It's got four games in one continuity (with two different directors between them, and it shows), one reboot game in a new continuity (with associated comic), three novels by different authors, a comic, a manga, an anime, and a spiritual successor in the Bayonetta series (created by the director of the first game and chock-full of references to it). It's a mess, but oddly fun. Some people try to limit canon to the games only, but there's so much great stuff in the expanded universe that it's tough.

Oh. I was going to guess Touhou, but stopped myself because I didn't think that would be right. I didn't know about the Devil May Cry novelizations, only the games, anime and Bayonetta. Are they any good?

Expanded universe material can be a godesend if the original canon doesn't worldbuild much.

Sorry to say I never tried Touhou! The novels (full summaries here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devil_May_Cry_%28novels%29)) are okay, I like the first one, though it conflicts with DMC3 - it has an interesting darker take on Dante and Vergil's history, so it accidentally gives more context to their animosity in DMC3.

Oh, thanks for the heads up! :) they seem pretty interesting.

Not to me. I love everything Sailor Moon that I've seen, but I really love how every adaptation has its own unique twists on things. That's the best thing about adaptations of anything for me.

Re: Sailor Moon Crystal

The quality of an adaptation doesn't stop it from being canon in and of itself.

No. It goes: Bit of canon I like from original series trumps later, but bit from later series that I prefer trumps original canon. Just pick the bits you preferred most from each canon and then all of them together make the best canon.
