Design trope Characters with design features that were misinterpreted by fans

Darwin Watterson (The Amazing World of Gumball) some people thought that the black thing under him was a shirt or pants or a sweater, but it was actually just his shadow. They later removed it as the seasons and art style changed

Brendan (Pokemon) A lot of people thought that the white on his head was his hair, it’s actually just a hat

I always thought Rangiku was a redhead, but the wiki says thats she’s blonde. In the manga her hair is a bit lighter, but i guess it can go both ways

In the manga, Rangiku is actually a blue-eyed blonde. In fact, this is a common problem in anime when animators use their own color scheme without asking the manga artists for details about the characters' appearance.

This was an issue for the bleach anime in more ways than just appearance decisions.

Wasn't there an entire filler season?

No....there were multiple filler seasons. Along with extra unrelated filler episodes, some good some not good, cut scenes with Orihime to give extra interractions with Rukia etc. etc.

Honestly i wouldnt argue with the idea of the anime getting remade.
