Redirect to:

Spinoff (media)#Sidequels

From a related word or phrase: This is a redirect from a word or phrase (term) to a page title that is related in some way. This redirect might be a good search term, or it could be a candidate for a Wiktionary link.
- Redirects from related words are not properly redirects from alternative spellings of the same word. They are also different from redirects that are subtopics or related topics, because unlike those, a related word or phrase probably does not warrant its own subtopic section in the target page or possess the possibility of ever becoming an article, template, project page, and so forth.

To a section: This is a redirect from a topic that does not have its own page to a section of a page on the subject. For redirects to embedded anchors on a page, use {{R to anchor}} instead.

-{{nihongo|'''Gaiden'''|外伝||{{IPA-ja|ɡaideɴ|pron}}}}<ref>[http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~jwb/cgi-bin/wwwjdic.cgi?1C Japanese Translation site provided by the Monash University]</ref> is a [[Japanese language|Japanese-language]] word meaning "'''[[side story]]'''" or "tale", used to refer to an [[anecdote]] or supplementary biography of a person. This use of ''gaiden'' is commonly used in popular Japanese fiction to refer to a [[Spin-off (media)|spin-off]] (canonical or otherwise) of a previously published work that is neither officially considered a [[sequel]] nor a [[prequel]].  However, some ''gaiden'' are retold stories in the perspective of a different character, similar to that of a [[Flashback (narrative)|flashback]].
-Works that includes the use of the word ''gaiden'' in their titles include ''[[Fire Emblem Gaiden]]'', ''Ten no Haō Hokuto no Ken Raō Gaiden'' (spin-off of ''[[Fist of the North Star]]'', which is told through the eyes of Kenshiro's brother, [[Raoh]]) or ''[[Albert Odyssey: Legend of Eldean|Albert Odyssey Gaiden]]'' (released in English as ''Albert Odyssey: Legend of Eldean''). In addition, the word ''gaiden'' has been used in English titles as well such as ''[[Ninja Gaiden]]'' (literally "Ninja's Tale", the American title for the Japanese series ''Ninja Ryūkenden'') and ''[[Resident Evil Gaiden]]'' (a European-developed spin-off of the [[Japan]]ese [[Resident Evil|''Resident Evil'' franchise]]), Super Robot Taisen Alpha Gaiden, which tells a future that would happen without the heroes fighting at the time of need as well as [[Barkley, Shut Up and Jam: Gaiden]] (an apocryphal epic detailing the canon account of [[Charles Barkley]], who revives the condemned culture of b-ball to save Neo New York and his son hoopz from the machinations of the traitor [[Michael Jordan]]). [[The Legend Of Zelda: Majora's Mask]] was called Zelda Gaiden in it's development stages.<ref>http://ign64.ign.com/articles/069/069708p1.html</ref>
-Films such as ''[[Battle Royale (film)|Battle Royale]]'' use the term Gaiden to refer to supplementary or additional works. <ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.battleroyalefilm.net/movie/ |title= battleroyalefilm.com |accessdate=2008-12-02 |date=2008-12-02 }}</ref>
