My example my biggest issue with DB is how fans always love using the "Canon Rules apply only" even though not only does DB proceed to break that rule by giving feats from different canons (weather it'd be video games, comic books or other media) but all three of those sources exist in different universes, so where does canon fall under any sort of boundaries or alignment? This is made all the more frivolous when fans themselves do the same thing. If "canon only" is allowed, then why is it fine to break the rule just to OP certain other characters? Plus I think only applying a specific canon is boring, as depending on the character it can be very hindering and unfairly limits character's abilities to result in a terribly underwhelming outcome. As long as what the character uses from their entire lore (weather it'd be games, comics etc) I don't see anything wrong with it. (If other characters are allowed to use Games, Comics and Show adaptations, three completely different canons, then I think that as long as it relates to them it should be fine. lmao)

The only thing that should be applied is they have no assistance and as long as the "non" canon source still spouts a connect or makes sense for the character in question. (While Hyrule Warriors bears no relation to the Zelda series lore or connection, its still apart of their universe giving Zelda something to work with it's just not connected to the actual games) Plus I think people misconstrue the meaning of canon, which simply means something that only applies into the main narrative of its own universe. I never bother taking that into consideration when DB can't even be bothered themselves to stick to one canon when applying facts. Sure I think adding something like CDI Zelda would be out of the question because its not related to Nintendo, bears no name to the Zelda series aside from the actual name and it s a completely seperate product, at least Hyrule Warriors (despite being unrelated to the narrative and mainstream titles) still has the Zelda identity and does bring over canon elements from Zelda's character, even giving her a wide variety of assessments.

Bottomline Hyrule Warriors Zelda is fair game and does have this if factoring in Zelda's contribution.
