How the
record is made.

A concise account of the standards used to describe BRZRKR without turning inference, marketing language, or silence into canon.

The central rule is simple: say what the source supports, identify who is speaking, and leave genuine mysteries open.

Source hierarchy

Published comic pages and the published novel are the primary narrative sources. Official publisher, retailer, and studio pages are used for publication facts, creator credits, formats, and announced screen projects. Secondary coverage can provide context, but it does not override the primary material.

Canon and evidence labels

Confirmed describes a fact directly depicted or explicitly stated. Narrator claim identifies testimony that may be limited or unreliable. Ambiguous marks an unresolved identity, date, mechanism, or meaning. Continuity-specific keeps the comic and prose branches separate. Verification required means the available evidence is not sufficient for a firm statement.

Dates, credits, and adaptation status

Publication dates and credits are recorded only when an official listing or publication supports them. Historical dates inside the fiction are not inferred from release dates. Screen projects are described with their dated public status and are not presented as released, cast, or scheduled unless an authoritative source says so.

Spoilers and interpretation

Pages identify major spoilers before discussing them. Interpretive passages are written as interpretation and do not replace direct evidence. Cover art, promotional language, and a shared creator do not by themselves establish a story event or continuity connection.
