I'm in the process of writing an application for Meguro Gau from Nabari, but some questions have come up about using the anime canon vs. the manga canon. I'm not sure what the player for Yoito used, but I know the player for Raikou chose the point from which to take him from the anime.

That was my original intent for Gau as well, but after a bit of conversation with other players, it was suggested I use the manga because the manga progresses past where the anime does. The question of the possibility of canon conflicts with future players of Nabari characters came up as well.

The issue is this: the stories diverge greatly. Whether or not Raikou dies makes a huge impact on Gau's life and his direction in life, so which I choose is going to massively change the character for me. The official rules say that I can use any media and choose to bring the character in from any point... but will it be an issue if the events my character remembers are different from those the other characters from that universe remember?
