Sunwoo Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 Tharja now has Takumi syndrome. Can't remember if anyone's complained that all of Takumi's alts are colorless, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rezanator Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 I was expecting blow back from getting another Tharja (with the same color to boot) and it turns out it is something completely different. Regardless, I am always happy to get more flying mages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's just because over time I've become quite indifferent to how younger-looking women are depicted in japanese media, but she doesn't even seem like that large a problem. The problem is that she's not a woman, she's a little girl. Even worse is that this might be PoR Sanaki, who is TEN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sparked a debate by many about if you can still enjoy art if you don't like the artist/they're a terrible person. Personally, I think you can. I fucking hate 99% of Hollywood, but that hasn't stopped me from buying their shit movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Humanoid Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 I guess it's fate, Groom Marth has arrived just in time to get S-supported with ...Spring Catria. What? You thought I would put him outside of a Horse Emblem team? :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NSSKG151 Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 Kind of glad there is no Bridal Anna here which means I don't have to waste orbs on this banner. Still holding out that some day they will give her an alt, preferably her Awakening and Fates incarnations. Maybe if Ninian was a cavalry dancer I might have been tempted. In the meantime I get to continue to sit on my 800+ orbs waiting for Owain and Kliff to come though I do hope there is no limit to how many orbs you can hold at a time. I also just realized that since I have none of last years brides and I'm not pulling for any of these new ones the only bridal seasonal I'll have is Groom Marth funny enough. Glad to see the guy finally get something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XRay Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 (edited) I like them all, especially BB!Ninian. She is a Dancer, flier, AND mage! 1 hour ago, Sunwoo said: >Bride Sanaki What. The. Fuck. I mean, Sanaki is one of my favorite characters in Tellius and FE in general as a whole, but ... SHE'S THIRTEEN. 24 minutes ago, shadowofchaos said: More like "illegal in the United States" tbh. This is one of the few things I hate about Japan: Their lax attitude towards this. Good gosh don't get me started about how conflicted I feel about Rurouni Kenshin now. If no real children is involved and no one gets hurt in real life, creators and their target audience can indulge in whatever they want. Being okay with exposure to rape and genocide in fiction, but not okay with exposure to child marriages, is kind of strange. 6 minutes ago, NSSKG151 said: Kind of glad there is no Bridal Anna here which means I don't have to waste orbs on this banner.

Her marriage goes to the highest bidder/biggest whale, so it is not like we peasants can afford her bridal alt anyways.

It's funny, but ... despite having two characters I like very much, I'm considering not investing too many orbs here. I agree that Sanaki’s art isn’t that great. Her head is way out of proportion to her body. I also don’t like the idea of a child bride. Ninian’s body is too chubby. I’ll be aiming for Tharja first, since I lack strong red magea. Ninian will be second priority, because I already have p! Shigure and NY! Azura has a blue tome and Flying refresh unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ae†her Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 (edited) These B skills are getting to creative now. Def/Res Link 3 could be amazing on rally bots and spur bots like Ephraim and B!Lucina. Tharja's one is kinda weird though. Never expected a B Skill to do these kinds of things with repositoning skills. Oh yeah and almost forgot to mention. Why the fuck is Sanaki a bride?

Othin Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 tbh I can't be surprised by Sanaki at this point, but. Yeah. Tharja is really unnecessary, both as another seasonal version of herself and another red tome one. At least she has a black dress instead of sharing a white one with all the others like the first bridal banner. Ninian and Marth are sweet. I was sure we'd get some Marth alt eventually, but despite all the talk about it, I wasn't expecting Groom Marth to actually happen. Looks like he's an axe cavalry, which is especially nice, since there aren't that many available. Which is even better with him being free.

No it's definitely PoR Sanaki, the hair length perfectly matches her PoR portrait and I cannot imagine they will try to pull another Masked Lucina somehow tucking long hair away to look shorter. Still don't see the problem though. She isn't fanservicy at ALL (and younger units in FEH tend to have much less fanservicy damaged art), and the one quote of her we have right now doesn't suggest anything besides what is being said.

This is a rather dumb argument. It's not the same thing, because when rape and genocide are present in (competent) fiction they're portrayed as horrible things. The people who perpetrate them are meant to be awful people, and they're supposed to be awful things that we're not supposed to enjoy. They're meant to horrify us, to show how awful a situation is. Child marriage or sexualization of very young characters in anime and games are generally done for the pleasure of their audience without really having a discussion on why adults marrying children this young can be damaging to a child and why it's an abuse of power on the adult's part. A piece of media that discusses child marriage respectfully and goes into the full effects of it would be okay because it's making a point. If it's just to pander to someone's fetish, it feels less okay. Things that are generally not okay can eventually be widely accepted as "not a big deal" because people are shown and told that it's "okay" so often that they are no longer sensitive to it. I'm not even just talking about child marriage here, this is relevant to a lot of ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Geek Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 Implications of child bride Sanaki are bad, but at least her art (including her damage art) are all done in relatively good taste. Ninian is cute, I don't see what people's problem with her art is. Tharja's design is very creative, mixing the Sorcerer outfit with the Awakening Bride outfit.

I mean, I get what you mean, but it's a bit of a stupid argument regardless. Lumping in two horrible things with another horrible thing, and asking "why do people give a pass to these first two but not this one" is highly disingenuous.

Fire Emblem Fan Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 Sanaki...? She's not even 14 years old. I'm pretending she's a bridesmaid and that's that, nothing can change my mind from that headcanon. Bridesmaids can at least be young like that. Meh, Tharja. Okay, Ninian, cool, I might try and get her. MARTH! FINALLY! It's a shame he's locked to +1, though...why must IS be so stingy with him in Heroes? Oh well, at least he's getting an alt.
