    Amnesia is an extremely common trope in Japanese fiction: anime, manga, and games. At this point I’d say it’s reaching cliche status.

    They also almost always get the symptoms of amnesia wrong: the characters forget who they are. In real life amnesia cases that basically never happens. People can forget a lot of other things but they never forget who they are.
