...Wow, that was Sharena on the right. I'm seriously shocked. I did not expect Askr seasonals. But now I'm wondering why Anna's not there. Why did she have to be left out? Poor girl.

Anyway, I want that Sharena since I like her and she looks cute in bunny ears! And my Bunny Xander wouldn't be lonely anymore either (he's my only spring unit right now)!

I think Kagero and Catria are random/bad choices though. For one thing, are they even popular? And for another, they don't go with the Askrs. Anna and either Bruno, Fjorm, or Gunnthra should've been there instead imo. Also, I dislike Catria a lot. If any Whitewing had to be there, I'd have rather seen Palla. And I'd have rather had Ryoma or Hinoka for a Hoshidan one. But at least another Hoshidan finally got something, I guess.

So the Wo Dao axe and dagger are seasonal joke weapons lol.

Hard pass regardless. None of these characters or outfits entice me.

Fuck those chill eggs though. Atk/Def cripple on my -Res physical units and Atk/res drop on my QR tanks? I hope those 2 have poor stats so I never see that shit in the arena.

Happy enough with this set. Sharena is the only one I'm not interested in, but since she shares green with Alfonse, she's unavoidable. Won't complain if I get her, mind.

Catria is hopefully fast: I could use a Blarblade horse, and I've never pulled Olwen. I realise Ursula is an option, but I'm a little cold on her.

Alfonse fills a big gap in the horse lineup too. Between Gunter's cruel BST penalty and Titania's more specialised role, I was torn on how to build Freddybear (who is nearing 4*+10 but lacks any meaningful inheritance). Now there are two physical axe horses, I can build one as a Brave Axe assassin, and one as an enemy phase tank.

Kagero is of course a new unit type, and therefore worth it for that alone. Shame it wasn't Kaze though.

Oh thank God, no Leo.

Well, looks like I'll continue sitting on my orbs as no one here is a top favorite of mine. Catria's art is amazing though. You can just tell that she's wondering why the hell is she dressed as bunny, it's great.

So much for me saving orbs.... I like all of them, Alfonse looks like the least useful but that matters not when his outfit is so ridiculous that I have to get it for the memes!

More flier diversity is always welcome for me even if I don't really care about Kagero as a character (and I'm not the biggest fan of her following the Camilla example of being the sexual kind of fanservice).

Catria is lovely though! In terms of skills and stuff she doesn't look that impressive but she's my favorite from the whitewings so it's obvious I'll go for her!

Catria, Sharena, Alfonse, and Kagero.

Characters - None of my favorites, Sharena looks very happy. But no one I'm really interested in.

Skills - Spd/Res Bond and Swift Stance are cool, but not the best.

Unique movement/weapon combos - Dagger flier?!? That is cool, but I don't use fliers, so I'll pass.

 

Another banner I can easily skip over. Saving for Owain.

Sharena does share a color with her brother... But this time I don't mind, because AXE HORSE. We needed more of those! So while I want Sharena more, I'd be content with her bro this time too, despite not caring for him as much.

First alts for Heroes OCs, and also the first seasonal banner in a while to not have any repeat characters. That's neat.

The Chilling Seal eggs are tempting, as well as the new axe cavalry and first colorless flier, but they all fall just a bit short of being exciting enough for me to want to spend orbs on them rather than building my stockpile back up. Although I could try to go for just one of the greens, I guess? That has pretty good odds of going fast.

Who cares about their popularity? I'd get bored of Seasonals real quick if all we got was just popular characters.

Anyways, don't think i'll be pulling on this Banner. Sharena looks cute and Flying Poison Dagger Kagero will strike fear in the hearts of my enemies but i still haven't pulled F!Morgan and i also wanna save up for Nanna in April.

True, yeah. But I still don't get why Catria and Kagero were picked over Anna and/or Bruno, Gunnthra, or Fjorm.

Oh yeah, I got great reasons to pull green now! I could get Fredericks while looking for the Askrs!

Also, I don't like pink, but I admit it fits Sharena, so her outfit is still so cute despite being pink. :P

Odd choices. I'm already not big on OCs, and now they're getting seasonals. At least Xander isn't the most ridiculous anymore. At least I might actually get to save some orbs.

Also, Catria is getting an alt before Marth. Let that sink in.

Ninjabbit attack

I wonder what her voice actor was thinking as she said that line

Mmm, paycheck(?)

Also, how are they going to explain Alfonse and Sharena fighting alts of themselves?

...That's a good question. lol

I can't wait for the memes when GameFreak for some reason makes a ninja rabbit Pokemon.

Catria is cute, and is the one I'd want the most out of these.  Not enough to dip into the orb stash, but maybe if there's multiple blues on my free summon.  Chill Res is going to be amazing fodder too, and it's something I've been dreading ever since they introduced the Chill line.  Just imagine Reinhardt or one of his teammates with it.  Can't just throw a Julia haphazardly in his range and expect her to live anymore.

Well Kagero and Alfonse have me very interested. Lethal Carrot and Big Spoon are just things I can't pass on. Though I admit Kagero's art isn't my style, but Dagger Flier. Art and voice wise I just love Catria in this. Sharena is also absolutely adorable.  Which means all three colors are interesting for me. Lets see. I have several solid infantry green mages. So Sharena is low on the list for that alone. Cav Axes are few and far between so Alfonse makes a raise just for that alone. Flying Dagger is unique so that is high on my list. And for blue magical cavs I have basically no one I use regularly. So not quite as desirable as flying dagger, but could be high on my list depending on stat spread.

Catria's gonna be the easiest to get. Alfonse and Sharenea are both greens and Kagero is in colorless hell. Ooof.

I've just accepted that Marth isn't getting a Seasonal or an Alt at this point.

On the other hand, Muninn's Egg will be the perfect weapon for a Reinhardt-countering Julia.

Okay... Hm... I think I can get behind this. I'm fairly certain I won't be pulling, but it's a nice surprise. Askr seasonals are kind of fun. I think Sharena got a nice costume design. Alfonse's has quite the awkward crotch situation going on...but it's good art nonetheless. Kagero and Catria remind me a lot of Camilla and Lucina from last year, so I wish there had been a little more variance with the overall designs, but I'm sure someone's going to love them. ^^ Even I'll admit that Kagero's art style is beautiful. But flying dagger before even a flying staff unit is SO random. lol I will say it's nice to have some variety with the character choice even if it's...odd? 

All in all, an interesting banner, but I think my orbs are safe. I can hold onto my stash for a bit.
