We publish our audit record because accuracy claims should be checkable. Every entry on this site runs through an automated fact-audit pipeline (accuracy audit → source-grounded repair → visual QA); this page is generated from that pipeline's own report, not written by hand.
This is a fiction/fan codex: entries describe an in-universe canon. Our audits check canon and internal consistency — external fact-checking does not apply the way it does on real-subject codexes.
Last full accuracy audit: 2026-08-26 · 30 entries checked · 6 flagged · 17 issues confirmed · 6 corrected · 11 still open
Four Cardinal Heroes — The 'DID YOU KNOW' section states 'The light novel series had over 4.5 million copies in print by December 2020' — this is incorrect; the actual figure was over 4 million copies in print by December 2020.
Four Cardinal Heroes — The 'DID YOU KNOW' section states 'the manga adaptation had over 2 million copies in print by January 2021' — this is incorrect; the manga had over 2.2 million copies in print by January 2021.
Spirit Weapons — The entry states that Legendary Weapons do not retain memories or desires from past wielders, but canon shows they do retain memories and skills, unlocking forms based on past users.
Spirit Weapons — The entry claims the Shield Spirit is a distinct being from the weapon, but canon identifies it as the consciousness/soul of the Legendary Shield itself.
Shield of Rage — The shield was first unlocked during the Cal Mira Island arc when Naofumi absorbed the rage of the Rage Demon.
Shield of Rage — The shield's glow is consistently red or crimson, regardless of the intensity of the wielder's emotions.
The Legend of the Shield Hero — The Legendary Shield does not have a 'Skill Steal' ability; it unlocks forms by absorbing materials, not by stealing skills.
The Legend of the Shield Hero — The Shield itself does not inherently obtain items or money through gameplay mechanics; Naofumi obtains them through normal adventuring.
The Demon King's Return — The entry incorrectly claims the Demon Dragon is not a canonical entity in the Final Wave, when the Guardian Beast is indeed a dragon-like being and is referred to as the Demon Dragon in the source material.
Wave Dungeon — The claim that if the Wave boss is not defeated within a certain time, the boss does not reappear in a later Wave is incorrect; in canon, the boss can reappear in a subsequent Wave.
