Talk:Color Naming Rule/@comment-67.167.91.66-20151019221939/@comment-4010415-20151019230209

Monty never said that fan characters HAVE to follow it. He revealed the rule to everyone so the people who want their fan characters to be as perfect and canon-like as possible know about the rule. He even once said that he knew what it was like to put a lot of thought and effort into something as a fan only to discover later down the line that what he worked on wasn't right.

It's like when a Bleach fan makes an arrancar OC and looks for a good way to name their arrancar OC's zanpakuto in Spanish because, while the soul reapers' zanpakuto have Japanese names, the arrancars' zanpakuto have Spanish names.
