 ===== Cliché Critique =====
 Now, there are various reasons why this is irritating, though this being a //cliché// and not a //trope// should indicate that it's generally poorly implemented.

 However, I think it can go into a few directions:
-  * The plot will revolve around someone attempting to go back to the state of war.((:fn:>I believe this is the case in //Allison//.]]
+  * The plot will revolve around someone attempting to go back to the state of war.((:fn:>I believe this is the case in //Allison//.))
   * The world just straight-up devolves back into war.
   * The story starts meandering.

 This perspective – that we're all basically the same and should just set our petty differences aside – make the most sense if everyone is //already// on the same page...like in //Japan// itself.

 ==== Allison ====
 [[lb:allison]] is one of the extremely naïve examples of this cliché as it literally assumes that all conflict boils down to ideology/hatred.\\

 [[lb:codegeass]] is a...I don't know whether interesting or not example.\\
 Code Geass understands that ‘hatred’ isn't all that drives warfare...but it clearly assumes that hatred plays a big part.\\
-The <wrap spoiler>Zero Requiem plan</wrap> is, in fact, directly dependent on this assumption to work. Though it's kinda quirky because of //how// it's all set up...yeah, it's just weird. Like all of Code Geass I guess. I'd need more time to think about it.

 I added [[lb:croan]] to this list at some point, but forgot why. I think it's because the assumption is //there// though it doesn't quite go into this cliché's territory as far as I remember.
