Are Those 🩲Underpants🩲 Made of 🪩METAL🪩? An Armour Review 

Bruh 😎

Needs more cheese 🤷🏻‍♂️

"stare at my boobs, aim for my heart" needs to be a shirt.

can you include the Knigth (the protagonist) from the video game "Guardian Tales" in your next rating video? that armor looks so good. but not sure if it looks well made for a battle.

So, I noticed a couple times where you're vibing with the armor a lot, but there's this or that thing that's rubbing you wrong, and you go from what sounds like it's on the edge of "Pretty good" straight to "Could be Worse." Now, Xenk you explain a bit. If you can't really move in it, it needs some fundamental fixes, but why the other one? Not criticism, necessarily, just curious about thought process. Especially since the primary flaw with the first "could be worse" could have been fixed by removing one of the 5 people seemingly designing the armor.

sword logic!

This lady spent an entire story arc trying to cure herself of worms! It's actually even worse than it sounds, because in addition to having worms, they also made her lie constantly, and de-worming her killed her!

@@reganator5000 she shoulda gotten de worms removed, den.

That's one of the things that I like about Destiny's character design is just how distinct each of the enemy species are in design. (Also if someone can get her to see the Cabal's armor PLEASE)

Nurgle likes this 👍

Are they actually called that in game

​@@jakariashafin1695 no but there isn't a canon fashion name so they're now combat stripper heels

@@Shpeedle I see

Look up the origin of high heels. I would say they are pretty appropriate.

@@amedaius8492 is that the ones made to keep feet and hemlines out of the mud, or the ones made to make short kings look taller?

It absolutely makes it worse! She's a flying unit! What about that armor makes sense? The only thing it's got going for it is the fact it's a similar color to her mount, making it harder to distinguish her from a distance.

She's probably using some kind of saddle, but lemme tell you, riding in a saddle without proper equipment is asking for sores. Not to mention that, in theory, there is a chance she might have to land/could be shot down, and would have to fight on the ground. Her armour has to be able to function in such a scenario, too.

This is why wyvern riders are weak against archers lol

😬😬😬

yikes

She really is just a pure horny design logic be dammed

also the fact that she's a wyvern rider...eeeeeeesh talk about chaffing

Actually Camilla's armor is soft. When Corrin "bumps" into Camilla he bounces off her completely unharmed.

"...and there's nothing to stop them"

The designer of Camilla's possibly knows very little about women, however... or that could just be describing the fanbase.

There are character reasons for Camillas armor, though her actual character gets that across well enough. Shame all the fire emblem characters get only one outfit for all occasions (Aside from class promotions, coronations, etc) But while she is in melee she's also on the back of a wyvern. Don't know if it makes it better or worse.

​​@@Agent719 I guess technically that can make the heels/riding a little better. Only a little though. A wyvern seems big enough that a melee axe should be wasteful...a bit of a "drive the tank closer, the commander wants to hit them with his sword from the top" situation.

@@FFKonoko It depends whether she's fighting with close support from other units, or operating independently - detached tanks are notoriously vulnerable to people attacking from the side/rear, and having something to deal with attackers coming from everywhere the wyvern itself isn't actively defending seems like a good way to extend your life expectancy...

​@@rmsgrey so it would also justify the axe being oversized, because she would not be lifting it but rather swing it like a pendulum along the sides of the wyvern? (Not too worried abt the back, afaik wyverns are very spiky on that side too) That might even explain the huge tights protection! It all makes so much sense 😂

Main Hunter 🗡

Also worth noting, it's entirely possible that the one with the "tight skull helmet" is in fact a robot who doesn't need to breathe.

Another destiny player running here to finally share information that’s relevant instead of just going ‘Look at this!’ Now to try and get Jill to review exotic armour.

To add some characterization, titans are generally focused on "hit thing", hunters are the stealthy ones, and warlocks are space magic book learners.

Any and all of the 3 could be male or female. There are armor differences between male/female in-game but the silhoutte of a female titan (warrior) will still be larger than a male hunter (ranger) and vice versa.

So not only does have metal on skin, but dragon scale on skin. That's not chafing, that's skin removing.

@@bthsr7113 it's fiiiiine, just think of it as... an extremely effective exfoliation regime.

Ow

@@PugandOwn an exfoliation to rule them all, and in scaliness flay them all. You can’t get saddle sores, or chafing, if you lack the dermal layers to develop them!

The only way this works is if those thighs are calloused like boot leather. Significantly less sexy (at least, for most people; I won't pretend there isn't someone into that).

They also have a looooot of bullshit ones in every level and category possible 😂. And I say this as a passionate player of Fire emblem heroes.

Titania is my favorite "good armor" by a long shot, but my low-key favorite FE goof is how phoned in many of the characters lower bodies are in the older games. Kent and Sain have totally reasonable looking armor in their in-game portraits. Then you see their official art and they're wearing just... regular slacks. It's like they're waging war via a Zoom call

@@merlinthetuna Pbbbbth, that's great.

What's even better is that Camilla's default class is Wyvern Rider. This MIGHT justify some of the WTFery in her design (keyword MIGHT) but based on how flying units work in FE it effectively becomes moot in the end anyway.

@@merlinthetuna doesn't she have a self castrating plate or do I remember that bad?

Do they at least make alterations?

​@@zincwing4475yes, often. But that change might just be a coat of paint - I seem to recall "yank it from another productions leftovers and paint it purple " was the source of the chest armor for the Alliance grunts in "Firefly" for instance.

Honestly, armor is/was *expensive*. When equipping an actual human being for actual combat, the procedure was often much the same, unless you or your patron were uber-rich. And sometimes "storage" meant "the corpses on a recent battlefield"

​@studioyokai from what I remember it was the starship troopers armour... which was itself taken from another film... Doctor who spacesuits from the 60s pop up a lot in movies including star wars.

​@@studioyokaiWouldn't there need to be size alterations at least, depending on actors?

We need a two-part purple tier: "Dead from Laughter" and "Just Asphyxiate Me Now".

CC the whole Netflix Originals corset fiasco.

I second this!😂😂

„Choke me”

I never figured that ! :D That's so brilliant.

Kind of wish she’d seen Nausicaa wearing her gas mask, it’s another interesting design that I loved in the film.

I thought that's because it was literally made from giants' bones and Miyazaki had to show it without excessive exposition.

I suspect whoever suggested Nausicaa might have hoped Jill would watch the film and, because the colour of Nausicaa's skin and trousers are so similar, initially think she wasn't wearing trousers.

​@@craigwilde2162 I don't think the film gives you any clues as to whether she is wearing anything between her waist and her knees. Sounds pervy but that was the impression I had.

My hair is hip length and slightly wavy, if I go outside, even to just walk it goes in a braid. If I don't it'll get tangled and blow in my face, obstructing my view and distracting me as I have to pull entire handfuls out of my mouth. Then the increasing amount of tangles makes it increasingly more difficult to pull that stuff out of your face as your hands get tangled as well. Long loose hair is for doing very little in a wind free environment 😂

The even better thing about this character: she's a fucking WYVERN RIDER. She's normally airborne!!! With that hair!!!

lol I literally just cut my formerly-waist-length hair to just past my shoulders because of how much it got caught in EVERYTHING....

Finally, something she can breathe in!

Yeah, pretty much the entirety of Fire Emblem post-Awakening has been... dubious in the character design department. I'd love for Jill to someday look at something pre-Awakening, but I guess I'd have to get a bit more involved if I wanted to make that happen. Camilla's dragon-riding almost gives her a pass on the excessive boobage, but it condemns the exposed thighs. Nothing except an archer is likely to reach her chest but a lot more enemies will be able to reach her thighs and femoral blood vessels. Yikes. I'm pretty sure the second image is from Fire Emblem Heroes. The mobile gacha game which leans into the anime pandering *hard.* Presumably this (plus her initial characterisation in her own game as the maternal love interest, a trope that makes me gag) explains her facial expression.

@@gigabyte2248 I mean I definitely think there's more acceptable designs than your giving credit for post-Awakening. Xander, Leo, Hinoka, Niles, Kaze, and Saizo in Fates (maybe a couple more, but idrc about Fates tbh), about half of the 3 Houses cast, and Xavier, Alfred, Etie, Louis, Lapis, Citrinne, Diamant, Jade, Kagetsu, Zelkov, Fogado, Merrin, Seadall, Lindon, and Saphir. Yes, that's nearly 2/3 of Engage's playable cast. Don't let designs like Hortensia, Céline, and Alear color your impression of the rest of the units. And even then, a good number of units that I left off are fixed by just reclassing them to fix the outfit situation (Panette and Goldmary spring to mind)

Mother-figure/older-sister/love interest. What is it with Japan and emotional incest fantasies?

@@researchinbreeder Oh, if you wanna go, we can go. Rubric: similar to Jill's, I'm looking for covering the important body parts, while still looking for freedom of movement. Doesn't count if it's not actually armour (NAA), though I will still call it out if it's egregious. Female characters only. I consider the bar to be set by Radiant Dawn: Titania, Astrid and Jill are covered neck-to-toe with something (mostly armour) and still look amazing. *Fates* Corrin (F) - bare feet on the battlefield are a big no-no, even if you are a dragon. Loses points for exposed thighs. A bit form-hugging, but segmentation is nice. Azura - NAA Camilla - already covered, pun intended. Elise - NAA? I can't tell if that's supposed to be a segmented cuirass. If it is, there's no other armour on her and no excuse for those unprotected thighs. Felicia - NAA Hinoka - she's wearing vambraces but not much else. Exposed thighs (again) asking for a femoral blood vessel slicing. Sakura - NAA Anna - NAA Beruka - good. The elbow-hooks on the vambraces are a bit much, though. Charlotte - I hope I don't have to explain why you should just stab her now. Effie - could be worse. Lacking a helmet but, ehh, she has big-ass pauldrons. My biggest criticism is the moulded-on boob plate, plus the lack of segmentation. Flora - NAA Hana - good. A little light on coverage, but the swordfighter class focuses on agility over protection. The chest is covered by metal plate and she might have sarashi wraps around her abdomen, which would be better than nothing. Kagero - NAA, but I can't not mention the comically-sized boobs and extreme cleavage which screams 'just stab me now'. Lilith (humanoid) - NAA Mikoto - NAA? If it is, covering the abdomen and shoulders but not the chest seems like a potentially-fatal oversight. Mozu - NAA Oboro - I'm torn. Better to wear something than nothing... but that mini-cuirass looks to offer little protection for high torso movement restriction. Not even cloth to protect her mid-arms and neck, which seems like a bit of an oversight. Orochi - NAA, but she must be pretty cold. Peri - I had a worrying feeling that MFing Peri might have the best female armour in Fates and I seem to be right. Good torso coverage with good segmentation and good arm coverage. She doesn't even have any exposed skin, but I have to dock points for the pigtails that could be used as handles for grappling her head. Reina - it's hard to tell from her portrait art (which is all I can find), but I think that's plate and scale chest armour and possibly also some spaulders. Pretty good. Rinkah - NAA, though goodness only knows how she has so much defence while wearing so little protection. Setsuna - NAA *Echoes* Mostly NAA, though I see a few bits of metal: Clair - if I'm being nice, NAA. If I'm not, why have you put metal in all the least protective places? Mathilda - all the points that she gained for sensible(ish) greaves are lost with the boob window. Particularly as that metal is pretty close to skin. Delthea - I wanna say NAA but, if that breastplate is metal, it definitely qualifies as the bare minimum. Points docked for bare flesh on the arms and legs, and also for a moulded-style boob plate for an underage character who still presumably has a lot of growing to do. She and Luthier are not wealthy enough to be replacing that one breastplate every year. Mae - similar token effort to Delthea, though at least Mae is a full adult. Points docked for moulded-style boob plate. Palla, Catria and Est - heavily overlapping. I appreciate the slim breastplate that's traditional of pegasus knights, but all 3 have exposed thighs, Catria has exposed shoulders and Est has (seemingly) bare-metal-on-skin spaulders. *Three Houses* So, there's not much point opining on identical school uniforms. So, instead, we're doing post-timeskip outfits only and skipping outfits that are not actually armour. Byleth (F) - hasn't Jill covered Byleth before? Exposed midriff, exposed arms, a cuirass that looks hard to move in and whatever the hell is going on with those tights. Edelgard - hasn't Jill covered Edelgard too? In any case, I think her main outfit is, weirdly, NAA. I have to take a shot at her promoted class' moulded-style boob plate, though. Looks dreadful to move in. Ingrid - I can't find a full-body image right now, but the half-body looks pretty good. Sensible spaulders and a breastplate that looks like it would actually deflect blows away from her heart. Hilda - OK, NAA but I have to take a potshot at that boob window. She's a melee fighter who needs a lot more protection that that. Leonie - again, I'm working off half-body shots but I can see two spaulders and deep cleavage. Not great. Catherine - moulded-style boob plate. Just no. Please? Shamir - one solitary spaulder does not count as armour. *Engage* Alear (F) - NAA, though I have to call out the exposed thighs and stupid-long hair that would be a serious liability in a fight. Ivy - NAA, but possibly the poster child for gratuitous eye candy. As crown princess, she really ought to be wearing more than a single economically-cut dress on the battlefield. Extra points lost for high heels, the pointy things on her shoes and gloves and the lack of support for a bust that definitely needs it. Timerra - very much NAA, but I have to call out the trailing fabric and the stupid ball decorations. They'd probably be a minimal hindrance to movement but they look super-ugly. Lumera - NAA Framme - NAA Céline - NAA, but I have to dock points for whatever the heck is on her upper torso. Somewhere between a wardrobe malfunction in waiting and jailbait. Etie - NAA and, although I fully understand her desire to show off her washboard abs, that should be done away from the battlefield. To wit: her Somniel outfit covers her midriff but her battle outfit exposes it, which is the wrong way round. Chloé - possibly NAA but, as a pegasus knight, I'm going to assume it is. That gives us: bare metal on skin (or close enough), seriously exposed chest and a body-sock garment covering her abdomen that is sheer enough to nonsensically hug her navel and therefore offers zero protection from blades. Jade - very good. Neck-to-toe coverage and that rarest of all accessories... a helmet! Segmentation on the cuirass, pauldrons that are large enough to offer serious protection but loose enough for freedom of movement. My only criticism is the excessively long hair, which is asking for a grappling. Lapis - my girl, you came so close. A breastplate and vambraces that offer a good level of protection while still giving the high mobility typical of a swordfighter. Spaulders are present but are protecting the upper arm, not the more vulnerable shoulder. It's let down by that undergarment, which is seemingly the same kind of sheer body-sock as Chloé is wearing. It appears to be the only thing protecting her abdomen, shoulders and armpits (which could have some serious consequences if stabbed). Citrinne - NAA Yunaka - NAA, though extra points docked for ultra-deep neckline, lack of bust support for a figure that really needs it and the weird waist cutouts. Saphir - pretty good. Although that plate on her abdomen looks like it would create a lot of movement problems. Hortensia - NAA, loses extra points for dressing like a circus clown. I'm a bit too male to wear any of these outfits, but I wouldn't be caught dead in that stupid getup. Rosado - not actually female, but I had to jump in: why have you armoured your limbs and not your torso? Maximum mobility loss while leaving the life-threatening parts unprotected. Goldmary - ...is that a pauldron? A single oversized pauldron on one shoulder? That seems like a great way to give herself even more back problems. I'm going to give a consolation prize for the corsetry on the abdomen, which should offer more protection than simple cloth, then take it away for the exposed chest. Anna - NAA. Points lost when she promotes to the warrior class and is wearing a single sports bra on the body of a pubescent girl. Pass the brain bleach. Merrin - skirts the border (pun intended) of NAA. Little-to-no torso protection, bare flesh on the arms, light upper-arm protection and metal claw-gauntlets. The bare flesh on the arms is particularly bugging me because she wields knives, placing her arms closer to the enemy than normal from the reduced reach. Panette - NAA. OK, the hand wraps were a cool design decision but this outfit offers about as much protection as her defence stat implies. Final verdict: over 4 games, the only outfits I'd consider good enough to wear are the ones on Beruka, Hana, Peri, Reina, Ingrid and Jade. Maybe I've been a bit too harsh, but Radiant Dawn alone can beat that count, and I surprised myself how many not-actually-armour outfits I had to jump in on for a dressing-down (pun intended). I still live in hope that Fire Emblem can reign in the anime horniness and design some good characters again.

You can blame Japan for that all you want but remember how popular stepsister porn is in America it’s like the third most popular category now

"Sooo...is a a bad place to be a hero... Where the land is happy...as is?" Um................ sure.

@@jfwestinger Yep. Because there they would be as useful as a DVD rewinder. Or a dentist for chickens.

I would say a bad place to be a hero is one where a hero is needed... but plot shields are not available.

"Also, Bertolt Brecht said "Unhappy the land that is in need of heroes." and Bonnie Tyler said, "I need a hero. I'm holding out for a hero till the end of the night."

@@vforwombat9915 Ha! This is true! Playing chicken with tractors in "Footloose"! AND I know someone who worked with Kevin Bacon...in "Footloose" even! She's an acting professor now. Ever hear of the game "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon?" I only have one degree of separation. Have yet to include it on my resume, though. = )

Some do, the NieR dev's mentioned something to that effect with regards to their design's. It's a shame, I'm glad I didn't let it ruin those games for me, but the thought that some people could be put off such incredible stories because one of the characters is randomly wearing lingerie is upsetting.

Kojima admitted he designed Quiet almost exclusively to see cosplayers and making figurines of her... So yeah, is not uncommon 😬

​@@plipster1I'm definitely never trying Fire Emblem games because of the ridiculous outfits, so sadly you're right in that one too

The silly thing about that is that someone will sexy-fy it anyway

@@Bane_Amesta As a FE fan, I'd encourage you to try out at least look at some of the older games, since they tend to have much more natural looking costuming and character designs. Anything game released before FE Awakening is pretty tame in comparison to the newer games. I'd especially recommend Path of Radiance.

Regé-Jean Page was a brilliant casting choice for this movie! All the casting choices were able to really lean into their various tropes and milk them for all they were worth.

Themberchaud is an absolute legend tbh. So often does fantasy fall into the traps of making every dragon look the exact same but with different colors. The idea of a dragon whose greed extends into gluttony is just the best. A dragon that might be old and powerful but who is so fat that they can no longer fly properly

What I love about the Chubby Dragon (aside from Everything, he is precious and I would die for him) is how it illustrates a point that gets lost on some DMs. Namely that monsters, even if you're using the stat blocks from the Monster Manual, are made to be modified. You don't extract the monster as-is and plop them unceremoniously into an encounter. You embellish them. Use the descriptions and stats as a starting point, a scaffold on which to build your own encounter or your own character. It's not "A Dragon". That's stale. Seen it a million times. It's "A _Chubby_ Dragon". That's new. That's interesting. It lends itself to elaboration by its very nature (you get to think about _why_ the dragon is chonk and how that modifies potential encounters with it). Old & Busted, meet New Hotness. (Not to say a normal dragon is bad. It's a classic. But that also makes it predictable.) Whether you're making an encounter for a supplement or just for your home campaign, Specificity is the name of the game. Append just one meaningful modifier to a stock encounter, and both you and your players are likely to remember it much better. Whether that's a physical description, a motivation, clothing/accoutrements, abilities, or the environment.

Battle Panties!!!!! 🤣😂🤣

Yeah, I thought that her gear would have rated at least a pretty good. I'd wear it, I mean probably not the corset belt thing, but something like it.

Also, hiding her face, just to reveal her to be a woman was part of the movie too, so they even made that work.

Bump to make sure Jill reads about the helmet

Now you've got me thinking about an AI designed FE game, and if I'd be able to tell the difference...

Yay for helmets! (I dread to ask what kind but at least an attempt was made) 😁

@@JillBearup That's the only armor I disagreed with you. Sure, the leather things are not that useful, but that is a minor stylistic choice. It fits the world she is in, it is actually armor that has roughly a millenium of proven combat record, so it definitely should be at least in Pretty Good.

@@JillBearup the strange mix we see at Mira from The Last Legion may be partially intentional to make her represent a person from the far eastern lands of the early Byzantine Empire.

I don’t think her wyvern is reanimated. And she’s a lunatic.

@@rustkarl I could be wrong, I just assumed from the glowing red eyes and the tattered wings, and now looking at their design again they have bandage-like wrappings on their tails. Plus Nohr's pretty big on dark/black magic (and dead people). I never said she wasn't a lunatic; that's part of why her being sultry is so disturbing. That and the whole adopted siblings thing. And probably more reasons, I'm just not going to go looking for them.

*Nausicaä is such an excellent anime...a personal favorite...*

@@scottmantooth8785 If I Remember correctly Nausicaä is what Avatar and FernGully where trying to be.

@@kelaEQ2 *sounds right to me*

"Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind" - anime or manga is wonderful ... (but, note, the manga has sooo much more goodness). 😊

@@nbell63 *no argument from this side of the monitor*

Nausicaa is indeed set in a post apocalyptic future in a world that's been ravaged by genetically engineered bio-weapons. The dialog is meant to reflect that humanity has regressed to where people believe in magic and spells. It's a really good manga, and well worth the read. Only 7 volumes, and comes to a satisfying end. It's not an open-ended commitment to dozens of books like many manga now.

The story is set in the post apocalypse. Anything that looks like magic trends to be ancient technology. But there are wise women who know more then they should that might be magical that’s left open.

So the mail is "magic" in the same way Bilbo/Frodo's undershirt was

@@rmsgrey A bit? It depends on how much you ascribe Mithril's special properties to it being a magic material. Magic isn't actually a real thing in Nausicaa. The armor is "magic" because it's old and made using forgotten technologies and materials.

@@Crazael Clarke's law violation! (Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.) One forfeit.

@@rmsgrey the world of Naussiaa is a post apocalypse. The people living in that world cannot create much of the technology of the previous civilisation ( which seems to be future us ). So artefacts those people find from the past they might consider magical. The armour might just be made of stainless steel or titanium or ceramic plates or something equally as prosaic to us, but impossible to make in their world.

@@francesconicoletti2547 Good point !

"Caring" idk, I feel like she was hard core Mommy fetish on Corrin. Hahaha

​@@summertime69 caring... Is. Hm. As someone who has spent an excessive amount of time in that game. Caring is a misinterpretation. She's closer to a clingy abusive significant other. There are multiple conversations with different characters where she outright says "if you left me I'd cut off your limbs and bring you back" so. Caring is not the right word

@@Shpeedle She also makes uncomfortably suggestive references to the main character, who's her adoptive sibling.

@@erickpoorbaugh6728 there's literally a fully animated scenes where because you aren't able to go back to nohr with her, mid way through a hug she tries to murder the mc

Really? Caring? She’s a big tiddy psycho onee-san archetype who has implied and outright stated that should someone leave her she might have to take ‘drastic’ measures like hunting them down if they leave and hacking off their limbs so they can’t run away again or attempting murder of the MC in at least three cases with a “If I can’t have you back, I’ll have to kill you.” mindset. To say nothing of how eager she is to torture prisoners or how she possessively threatened Hinoka with an axe to the throat for saying that Corrin is her sibling, only relenting becuase Corrin was present and specifically asked for her to be spared. An example of her general enmity to the Hoshidan family for being Corrin’s birth family that want them back. She’s a terrible sociopath regardless of whether she’s aligned with you or not, the only difference is who she’s targeting. Frankly the most well adjusted members of the Nohrian family is the sorcerous tryhard Leo and the sickeningly naive Elise. Xander is a hypocritical tool and the fact that he keeps another murderous psycho as one of his retainers says a lot about him.

I like that thought!

Given what it`s actually supposed to be made from it would be better than Kevlar. Handy as Nausicaa`s world still uses firearms.

Guaridans do have the same basic biological functions as normal humans - with the obvious exeption being the Exos. There's even lore book entries discussing guardians starving. So, unless they are exos, they do need to breath. There seems to be a general consesus that guardians are sterile, but I'm not sure if this has been confirmed. Also, guardians don't need their ghosts to live. If they lose their ghost, they simply lose their powers and become mortal again.

@@Bird_Dog00 interesting, I didn’t see any of the lore on guardians needing to breath or starve, but I’m not Byf, so could have easily missed something. They don’t seem to have an issue with the vacuum of space, and outside of the helmet, don’t seem to need any kind of breathing apperatus. Also, didn’t mean to imply that they need the ghost to live, just that you can’t kill a guardian that has a living Ghost, as the Ghost will just revive them. To kill a guardian, you first have to take out the Ghost, a la Cayde. But as we’ve seen with Osiris killing the Ghost doesn’t kill the guardian, but without the Ghost, Osiris is on his last life.

Is she, though? I mean, she’s definitely the antagonist of the story, and as an alien creature covered in a chitinous exoskeleton who’s out to destroy humanity for *reasons* I struggle to say goodie. But she’s been SPOILER by SPOILER, and it’s all rather tragic, really.

@@IainLambert My friends and I learned about her motives and said "You should have opened with that!!"

Ah, Aribeth! What nostalgia you bring me

Oh my god, you kicked me 17 years back in time

​@@gulnazsharifyanova7950 damn, is it that long?

I loved the costuming choices for this movie! And yes, I agree that the armor definitely reinforces Xenk's stiff personality. Just looking at him we all knew that he "does not traffic in idioms."

Two seconds after he appears on screen his entire presentation is screaming Paladin NPC. If the armour helped with that maybe that was a decent trade off.

I mean, in game flying units are vulnerable to bows, so I feel that even if she isn't injured in her melee fights a well-aimed arrow to the heart would be all it takes to do Camilla in. Maybe fe flying units would be more resistant to bows if they wore armor that covered their chest and thighs lol

@@reitheist Flying units in FE are a real trip as flying really doesn't offer much advantage towards direct melee encounters with ground units regardless. A bow and arrow unit may be your kryptonite, but a well-trained unit could also someow down you with a punch to the face. XD

@@ariwl1 its positioning, the bows kind of had me spooked too, but once i knew there were no archers, they are very good for surgical strikes on enemy units that can be trouble. despite the Pegasus knights being a little lightly armored looking, they are surprisingly good as ambushers and fast take down units that have almost no terrain limits. a few strong oens and you can blink bosses very quickly

Would that be the same concept as a senim bari?

@@tcpratt1660 yes pretty much, although i didnt know that was a thing, so thanks for teaching me a new word

She’s a psycho who flips between disturbingly sexual maternal figure and brutally possessive yandere at the drop of a hat to the point where I wonder if Severa genuinely sticks around out of fear of being dismembered and kept like a pet if she should leave. The whole Nohrian family are hypocrites with emotional issues. Xander is massive hypocritical tool who doesn’t give a fig about what he’s doing, and he keeps Peri as a retainer. Arguably the only person more volatile and recklessly murderous than Camilla in the cast. Leo is a tryhard with an inferiority complex but there’s not much else to say against him, other than his questionable fashion sense. Elise is painfully naive and frankly her pointless death in Birthright was the only time Fates had some balls. Which only makes Xander’s unquestioning moronic continuation in spite of the fact he just killed his little sister even more headachingly absurd.

And combat wedgies as well, cf. the Fire Emblem outfit! 😂
