Edelgard feeds a cat - Fire Emblem Warriors Three Hopes 

Exactly, and far too many FE supports do go that way, especially beastman ones XD

Apparently she's like this all the time in Three Houses. There's a cat that hangs out outside of her room and leaves if you don't choose her route.

@@wanderlustwarrior well that certainly explains the Cat near her room all this time in Three Houses.

@Lucas The Phantom Thief Edelgard: *sigh* "Its Just me Hubert....... Just why did you had to see me do something like this....?"

She probably not people to know she act like this in secret

@Lucas The Phantom Thief That sounds funny

The supports in the game are so different from houses. It's weird to go from "hey, it's b support time, let me get to the crux of exactly how we feel with brutal precision" to "let's discuss how we feel by dancing around it with a seemingly innocent analogy as the focus." The creative change is interesting.

I thought you were memeing when I read those first two lines

lmao what a load of bunk. How is Edelgard implied to see herself in the cat, if anything the support draws a parallel between Linhardt and the cat and it's pretty obvious why, because Linhardt lazes around all day just like cats typically do. You actually think Linhardt is subtly claiming Edelgard is living selfishly and people only follow Edelgard because she's cute? In Houses, Linhardt tells Hubert "You and Edelgard work far too hard. I mean it." Clearly he doesn't see Edelgard in the way you claim the game is suggesting.

Edlegard: "That cat has my Soul! We're bonded to each other!"

The cat was plotting to take over Fodlan already, she just gave it a helping hand.

@@Lynn17 Dimitri: Must you continue to conquer? Continue to kill? Edelgard: For Princess Elizabeth Fluffles, absolutely!

She always stated she wanted to stand down once a worthy successor who wasn't related to her was found. She never said the successor had to be human!

Oh that explains everything.

Yeah, cats basically saved her life. How purrfectly executed…

read that last bit in Celica's voice, and also yikes

Well, given what she went through, it's not surprising El's a cat person.

facts

@@Jarock316 especially because, they hunt rats

I get why people like Dimitri and Claude, but there's no question that Edelgard was the greatest of the three. Not only did she experience extreme childhood trauma like Dimitri (and rose above it instead of being broken by it), she also fights for the sake of her allies, abandoning victory to save them despite their blunders (as seen with Lonato and his preemptive attack on the Kingdom). Claude, on the other hand, had no problem sacrificing Randolph for victory in one battle, despite his alliance with the Empire. People often criticize her because of her war of aggression, but fail to keep in mind that her war was against the Central church of Seiros (specifically Rhea), NOT against the Kingdom or the Alliance. The war against the Kingdom only occurred because Dimitri offered them sanctuary. The war against the Alliance was actually started by Claude originally (since in 3 Houses, Count Gloucester straight up allies with the Empire at the start of the war). The character was rewritten in 3 Hopes to be more morally upright, but under Claude's urging, faked a surrender, which is considered a war crime, so even then, Claude was still a backstabbing liar (especially if you don't recruit Byleth, as he breaks the very treaty and alliance that he himself signed).

@@LAZERAK47V2 I mean, even in universe its basically just Dimitri who is mad at her for her war of aggression. Claude on the other hand just wants to become the new ruler of Fodlan himself and in Three Hopes they even make an actuall alliance and he himself makes killing the dragon pope his personal issue. Also I kinda feel like the people who try to make Edelgard an unjustified villain are those, who just ignore all the bad Rhea does and the side of herself she reveals in both the DLC and Crimson Flower.

Dimitri's true calling are plants

@@jericoy. i don't think you can eat your pets

And you're right. I just wanted to play into the joke that Dimitri knows plants

Just please don’t let him eat the weeds. I don’t care if you can find edible plants among them. Just don’t let him.

@@lightningmaster3383 I guess we know why he's known as the High Lord.

Lapdog how generous they fucking simpin and thirsty

I'd argue that Monica is the real lapdog, Hubert's more of a German Shepard. Monica would never do anything to upset Edelgard (even stating that she would've been happy to be sacrificed for Edelgard's vision, which puts Rodrigue's "He died like a true knight" to shame). Hubert, on the other hand, has his own agenda regarding her plans. They share the same vision, but he's willing to go behind her back and disobey orders in order to see it through. He even admits as much when Edelgard questions him in their 3 Houses Supports and offers his life up (since some people would consider his actions treasonous), knowing full well that Edelgard would never take it because of how much she trusts him. The fact that Edelgard considers Monica expendable but Hubert indispensable really showcases the gulf between the two.

@@LAZERAK47V2 yeah but by the end of their supports, Edie appreciates Monica nearly as much as Hubert and I love that growth

Oh shet. Lol

The Caspar and Mercedes one also covers Jeritza's love of cats.

Constance's first support with Lorenz has a cat in the beginning partaking in a staring competition with her

Then there is Yuri's and Marianne's support. Didn't exactly show a cat but Yuri did mention that he wished he could spend a whole afternoon surrounded by cats

@@Miguel-bd6xq god she’s so fucking funny for that lmao I love that support

He is a natural cool guy

Chris is so chill

Felix’s cat look like this one too

LMAO now I’m gonna be thinking about this

@rhettmitchell Excellent. My mission is complete.

It’s the Anna of cats.

And the Shez Jeritza support

Agreed, Tara was perfect for such a mature-seeming empress with a soft spot for things like sweets, cats, nature, and even teddy bears.

@@DELIVEREE Christina too could have nailed it,but I think Tara is the perfect choice for Edelgard

Jeritza actually makes sense though. Like Mercedes says, he's actually very kind and sweet, to the point where he had to create the Death Knight persona to deal with the trauma he endured in House Bartelz. This is a common reaction by people who are gentle who are backed into a corner (in Emile's case, it was hearing that his father planned to hunt Mercedes down and force her into being his wife to bear a Crest child, thanks Rhea). He had to protect his sister but his heart couldn't handle the violence, so he developed a split personality. Emile himself is distant and antisocial because he's afraid of himself and that he'll eventually kill everyone around him because of the Death Knight. He's a tragic character and he may never truly heal from his past, though there is hope in his interactions with Mercedes (as an ally or enemy) as even in his Death Knight persona, he shows pain and grief at the thought of hurting her, even surrendering (AS THE DEATH KNIGHT) if you recruit him in Dimitri's route.

@@LAZERAK47V2 Emile is so cool fr. His relationships with Mercedes and Constance are so wholesome

It's hilarious to think that the Church is probably giving speeches about how Edelgard is a heretical demon lord hellbent on burning Fodlan and everyone who holds it dear to ash, and then halfway across the continent you have this cat interaction happening.

She is a bloodthirsty tyrant. Nothing in this scene contradicts that. There have been plenty of other warmongering fascists in the past with a soft spot for animals, Edelgard is in fine company.

@@detrik01 Oh god, don't even start with this bs "Edelgard is a bloodthirsty tyrant". Im not gonna participate in this "fun" debate This is why I redicule this narrative, since there's a lot of moments that proves different, but you can ignore all of that. Sure. Damn, it's like people in this community don't understand the defenition of a "tyrant" and "bloodthirsty". Is it because im from russia i understand how bloodthirsty tyrant looks like or is that something else?

@@ksenomorfify Hitler loved dogs. Ghengis Khan was a horse enthusiast, who (like Edelgard) was willing to murder and kill because he thought his system was better (also a "meritocracy"). Showing a character in a positive light does not dimmish the evil they're capable of, a fact you seem to struggle to understand. Where you're from is irrelevant. Just because someone has a "funny" and "quirky" aspect to their personality doesn't make them any less evil. And Edelgard started that war.

@@detrik01 dude, I told you, im not gonna discuss it. I'm new to this community, but I already saw how many people tried to explain why is it rediculous to call her a bloodthirsty tyrant. And what have they gotten as a response - oh... uhhh... BUT HITLER ALSO *random thing which is not relevant to the story or Edelgard's character development". And yeah, in my case it does matter where I'm from, since I can share an experience of living under the bloodthirsty tyrant for the who life. Here's lesson 1: Tyrant will never decide to leave his power and will try to do it with underhanded tricks, propaganda and by force. Putin regaining his power for over 20 years this way and Edelgard... she just left hang out with Byleth LMAO such a tyrant move yeeeep

Ew, a person with ship pairs as their username

Lillie? Oh…. Yea your also a cat person as well….

That is nice I love cats too

That too long for a support and requires more money than needed. And also sound effects are cheap or even free.

Tara Platt is a very skilled voice actress.

a lot like bernedetta also have

Felix and Mercedes

Shez and Jeritza as well, or so I've been told.

It all began with Caspar and Ashe’s support in the base game

This Edelgard is likable. She doesn't have the blood of Remire, Jeralt, or Jeritza's victims on her hands. Easier to like her without the Slithery boys ruining lives in the background, with her money no less. Conquest of Fodlan? That's just business, nothing personal.

@@hilgigas09 Edelgard had nothing to do with Remire or Jeralt's death.

@@zimonzieclown1633 Remire is Empire territory, as the heir to the throne their safety is her responsibility. Her, begrudging, allies are the ones who lay waste to the village. Kronya, an agarthan, murdered Jeralt after getting caught experimenting and killing students. If my dog kills yours I can't blame the dog, it was my responsibility to keep them in check. Especially when this is a known pattern of behavior.

@@hilgigas09 I guess we'll have to agree to disagree on this one; it is not reasonable to expect the heir to the throne (not even the actual emperor, but the HEIR) to know about everything that goes on in their territory at all times, let alone dealing with it all.

People that are die-hard Dimitri fans.

But the Imperial Army doesnt have Claude

"My imperial recruit there's no cats here! This is the siege of Garreg Mach, you're going to DIE!"

Choose to join the Black Eagles to fight side by side with Edelgard with exciting hack-and-slash gameplay after you purchase the Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes game for Nintendo Switch in stores now. (Rated T for Teen)

I agree

Three Hopes Edelgard still plunges the continent into war but she at least realises she never needed TWSITD.

Eldelgard did nothing wrong

Literally nothing changed about her character. And thats for the best.

To be honest, to me, this Edelgard and the one in three houses aren't that different but they are executed differently. They are the same person, I honestly always saw edelgard as the kind of person to secretly cuddle cats and baby animals in a corner, there even was fanart of this, mainly because Edelgard does show a lot of her soft side in her own route especially in her supports with Byleth but not only. She is extremely dedicated in helping everyone around her, especially her close friends. She is also very open minded to their criticism surrounding her world view,she sees it as a challange for improvement. She is aware she is not perfect nor is her plan, but she tried to do most of what she had. In this game her opportunities allowed her to take care of Those who slither early, (also they literally cut two chapters from the black eagles route despite it being in the game code, probably because they were rushed. Said route was definitely going to be focused on that as it is described in the post game that they did indeed fight TWSITD in 3 houses). On another note, I don't see how Edelgard can possibly be a villain if you truly look at Dimitri Rhea and Claude . Claude does a lot of questionable things, and it was shown in this game that he indeed also dislikes Rhea, Dimitri probably has a higher kill count than Edelgard out of revenge, and Rhea hates humanity burning cities just for a small advantage in battle. But if you look at it from another perspective, none of them are bad people. Hell, Edelgard Dimitri and Rhea are traumarised af, and most of the things they do make sense. I also always appreciated Edelgard for not doing anything she does out of vengeance, despite growing up chained up as a lab rat in a basement, being the only survivor of cruel experiments, experiments that ultimately killed her family. She does indeed want to make a better world. And I do see her world as working. I just feel bad that Rhea Dimitri and Edelgard's ideals are just too different for them to reach a common ground. I do believe it is possible, but not under the circumstances given to them. In three houses tho, they do this almost if not psychological perspective play. Anyone who will go for Rhea or Dimitri will think Edelgard is a villain, even in Claude's route, while Rhea could he considered a villain in Crimson flower, Dimitri just hating on Edelgard due to a literal misunderstanding and wanting to kill her for it , and Claude just going with the flow. In this game, they focused more on balance between them.

The circus is over there

not her problem anyway.

Yep, wish she cared about all the innocents she killed or the commoners who could care less about her conquest or the families torn apart because of her insane imperialist conquest 😔

Dimitrii, Rhea and Claude did the same

@@monte8901 nah they're nothing alike, Claude, Dimitri & Rhea rightfully defended themselves from an aggressor, they're justified, but Edel isn't. The invader is evil & fighting against them is heroic, it's common sense, I can't believe I had to write this lol
