I've noticed how many Verses there are here with very expansive and detailed lore. So I decided to make a casual thread dedicated to discussing and comparing the Verses with the deepest lore per media type.
These will be:
Overall/Cross-over media:
Western Comic books:
Manga:
Anime:
Western Animation:
MMOGs:
Video Games:
Literature:
Live-action TV shows:
Movies:
Just some rules:
1. Non-canon stuff doesn't count unless it's part of it's own, separate, cohesive Universe (eg. Star Wars Legends) or included in the canon Verse's Multiverse (eg. Marvel/DC comics).
2. When discussing the lore for a specific media, stuff that belongs outside of that media (eg. spin-off comics when discussing movies) only count if they are canon (eg. DB Super anime in relation to the original manga) and if the Verse doesn't rely too much on them to have a deep lore (this is a bit subjective but it's to stop the discussions on certain media to be dependant on stuff outside of it).
3. Some similar media has been kept separate (eg. Western comics and manga, MMOGs and classic video games) for the sake of expanding the conversation.
Feel free to add media I've not mentioned (like visual novels). If this thread becomes popular enough I might make one about genres (fantasy, sci-fi) rather than media.
