User blog:VenomElite/Canonicity in the Kanza Collection

Within the Kanza Collection, there is an expansive canon between me and several of my closest friends. For the purpose of featuring Kanza on this wiki, this blog post will be explaining the different continuities within the Kanza Collection and what is considered canon or non canon.

General Information
What is the Kanza Collection?

The Kanza Collection is the collective name for the multitude of stories written by me (Ashu Ventus) and my friends, with me being the original creator and the biggest contributor to the Collection.

I began writing Kanza as a child in 2007 (I was 13-years-old then). I originally wrote short stories about the main protagonist and his evolution throughout multiple worlds. Around 2010-2011 I wrote an unpublished novella called “Hylegends” which would mark the beginning of a new canon, with everything before now being the “Origins Canon” (from 2007-2010). In 2012 I was normally making novellas and my closest friends became very interested in what I was doing, and I gave them permission to make their own stories and eventually we formed the Doujin Circle “Hylegends”.

To keep a long story short, by 2014 we have expanded a common mythos to a point where there are eight distinct canons and I officially dubbed the collective name of this metaseries the “Kanza Collection”.

Eight Canons of the Kanza Collection
1. Origins Canon - Any work created by Ashu Ventus (me) from 2007-2010.

2. Hylegends Canon - Series of works from 2010-2012, the last story was Amy Liu, the Princess of the Seventh Heaven (2012).

3. Mythos Canon - All works written by my friend Yeun Myeo revolving around ancient myths and legends within the series tens of thousands of years prior to the Main Canon which may or may not conflict with these stories and thus why it is called “Myth”.

4. Bloodbane Canon - series of manga one-shots by Nami Myeo. The most recent story was the “Tales From Bloodbane” and Nami is currently making another one-shot (she is an incredible artist). Bloodbane will be featured in the Main Canon but with subtle differences from the original (as Nami herself has mentioned).

5. The Play Box - series of non canon comic strips by Ashu Ventus and Ashu Tsubaki. The most recent story was “Alice’s Adventure in Apoptosis” (AAA) by my sister (in 2014).

6. Legends Canon - series of unpublished light novels written by Ashu Ventus from 2013-present. It is currently the largest canon. The most recent story was The Venom Elite (hence my username) and have been in the process of writing the newest light novel since February of 2016.

7. Romance Canon - series of webcomics made by Sera Kyo-ahn (my fiancee) and few were made by Ashu Tsubaki. The most recent comic was Romance of the Night Before Quintessence. This began in 2016.

8. Main Canon - the official manga and subsequent stories by Ashu Ventus to be published by 2018.

So now you know about the canon ^_^ stay tuned for more information.
