The best part about Phoenix Wright is that he doesn't even notice that he's in a fighting tournament instead of in a court of law since he is just that used to insanity in court.
Alex Bermann ohh so since hes used to insanity he either a: is nuts himself or b: thinks this is just another day in court, either way i feel bad for him having to put up with this kinda bullshit on a daily basis... but atleast it makes his job interesting as i understand the most fun a lawyer can get in a court is screaming objections and popping peoples bubble more than you would bubble wrap... gotta luv dat shit...🖒
Marital artists? I guess having 6 wives each that would count Haha but no, they all would like you to think they're badasses but most are just overpaid clowns who with an inflated ego who get paid to talk over a default protools track and think they're tough shit, when theyre no different than bieber, juz
That Megaman would be perfect for the Street Fighter Universe. He fit right in with the Mexican Luchador Chef, the Fat yet Nimble American, the Bear Wrestling Russian, the Japanese Sumo Wrestler, and the guy who in his spare time tries to create natural disasters with his bare hands. Megaman would seem normal to 80% of the roster.
Rubbish as in he's walking the fine line between an idiot and a genius. The guy is great at winning cases in a clutch (and can find that one little thing everyone missed) but he's an idiot, gets easily taunted and many of his cases were won due to extra help. Heck, the whole point of the last part of Trials and Tribulations is that he was being tested by the killer to convict him alone with zero help. And the irony is that in the fourth game we learn Phoenix ended up being tricked and losing his lawyer's license. SO yeah, great character but he was flaky.
Q from Street Fighter 3rd strike, he's a tall dude/thing in a trench coat and hat who has a metal mask/face and has one of the weirdest move lists in the series, also one of his lines is a distorted clip of Elvis saying: "I, I wanna live" and also his 3rd super art is he rams his opponent into his crotch and they explode and die.
He still sux, I use better fighters like Morrigan, Wesker, Jill, Chun-li, Ryu, Akuma, Virgil, Dante, and Crisom Viper. Plus I like using Nemsis and Chris
Personally I would have suggested Doctor Bosconovitch from Tekken 3, he's essentially disabled and just rolls around on the floor, if you manage to get him to stand up, make one move and he's back on his arse. -Klye
Oh yeah, good ol' Doctor B. Truth be told, Tekken 3 had its fair share of weirdos (including two bears and the broken AF Gon), but the guy who fights lying down on his back takes the cake. Only competition I can think of is Johnny Joestar unmounted (for those who don't know, guy is a fairly buff cripple jockey who fights by firing his fingernails and if mounted can use his massive horse to attack the other player, and he isn't even the biggest weirdo in JoJo fighting games).
And, if you believe one particular legend, Honest Abe was also a skilled olde-tyme wrestler, and once held a championship that evolved to become the NWA/WCW/WWE World Heavyweight title, possibly being its very first bearer! I think the championship title lineage in this tale is the one most recently represented by the famous WCW "Big Gold Belt" before WWE unified their World titles and retired it. There once were official governing bodies in almost all cities, regions, and countries for combat sports like boxing, savate, jiu-jitsu, and wrestling in its various forms like "catch-as-catch-can", Greco-Roman, pankration, and others. (Even as pro wrestling has shrugged off this bureaucracy by admitting to being choreographed "sports entertainment", with the emergence of MMA, so, too, has the need for commissions once again.) A wealth of promoters emerged, with rosters of world-renowned and tough-as-iron men, well-versed in their favored grappling style. They could make any opponent, be it a wrestler of their caliber or just some carnival-goer hoping to last three minutes with a champ, truly submit to their holds and locks. It's highly likely that Lincoln being the first (North American) holder of a professional wrestling World Heavyweight Championship title, recognized by an overseeing body (the National Wrestling Alliance), is purely historical embellishment for the amusement of pro wrestling fans, but, at the very least, Abe Lincoln could have been a formidable grappler, title or not. In much the same way that people today assert and exert physicality through organized sports, for fun, health, or career, guys of all kinds back then would forgo the formalities and their cost in favor of the basics, a gentleman's contest of strength and prowess. They'd shake hands, roll up their cuffs, and face off mano-a-mano. Abe, with his size, knowing hard work and muscle power, could very well have wrestled at a level to match with his boxing.
@Nate Hicks - In it's defense, this wasn't a "worst to greatest" video. Only a list of the most bizarre. The guy never mentioned that he was anyone's favorite.
+Fap P. Underboob Personally, I'd go with Miss Fortune as one of the strangest characters in that game considering she can pull off her own head and use it as a weapon and even have it fight independently from her body.
You also have to find evidence to support your argument. Dont know why they didn't mention that. That was the hyper combo. I never could collect it all.
Another Guilty Gear character I think you should include next time is Bedman from Guilty Gear Xrd (both SIGN *and* REVELATOR). This boy is always asleep and yet he's an elite assassin. He can utterly destroy you, literally with both of his hands strapped down and his eyes closed. Not to mention his (totally epic) theme goes from "sweet lullaby for the sleepy boy" to "you have five seconds to run before Sleeping Beauty here bashes your face into your skull."
phoenix wright reminds me niijima when he was forced to fight against the capoeira team. elders said he had near master level yet with no fighting skill at all.
zecle Its pretty cool espescially the masters and their backstory. Way too much Miu fanservice though... I liked her character, but I hate fan service.
zecle Yeah, but the show is great I am on episode 30 right about now :) Love the masters, I love the fights Kenichi has with Ragnarok and I love it when Niijima transforms into a girl to trick Kenichi, Takeda and that judo grappler guy ( I forgot his name ).
He was introduced as a secret character on MK4 and returned for Armageddon, since the game was basically "everybody we've introduced so far in one final Mortal Kombat".
Haircut, attitude, lack of actual capability in being a lawyer, and the way he acts when he wins. "A good lawyer has faith in his client! I guess." While smiling and scratching the back of his head. All of these point to the subject barely scraping through while not expecting his win. Combine that with this fact; despite not fighting in the traditional sense, Wright's finisher is the most powerful in the game - that just screams 'warrior' or, more specifically, 'SOLDIER'. Pretending one is unable to fight until the point when they are certain of a win is textbook undercover soldier.
Gon from Tekken 3. It was a kind of hidden character I believe. It was super weird to fight against him since he was so small that upper attacks couldnt hit him!
Fun fact: Abe Lincoln was legitimately known as a skilled fighter and wrestler. So well known in fact that there was a time when he won a fight and then challenged everyone else to step up, but nobody wanted to challenge him.
No the weirdest thing about Phoenix Wright is that he isn't even the only lawyer in that series... Daredevil and She Hulk are also in it so you could have an all lawyer team if you wanted to lol
I've got a couple. First is Scarecrow from Injustice 2. Everything you see is a Fear Toxin hallucination, the real Scarecrow is wearing a sack over his head and beating you with the canister he used to transport the toxin. The second is the Armageddon incarnation of Smoke from Mortal Kombat who basically becomes Ego the Living Planet in his arcade ending.
I can't believe they missed the Chicken from Eternal Champions on Sega CD. Playable chicken, not a man sized chicken, a chicken sized chicken. With a special attack that had a farmer cut your head off and you would run around and bleed on your opponent.
I like Mokap. He could be a disgraced former fan of Johnny Cage, determined to prove that his stunts are CGI and not real. He must have followed Cage to the tournament, and inadvertently ended up in it. Determined to prove that this is actually a film set, he fights others in a MOCAP suit. Just a thought. He needs some character development.
Fighters Megamix actually had a whole myriad of weird characters... Bark the Polar Bear, Bean the Dynamite, Deku (a green bean in a mexican hat) and AM2 Palm Tree, who's literally AM2's signature palm tree turned into a fighting character. And even Janet (from Virtua Cop 2) makes an appearance in this game as a playable character.
I always used to play as Zappa in Guilty Gear, idk there's just something about the grudge woman possessing him to break his back and fight that caught my eye hahaha
Peach, Rosalina, Mr. Game & Watch, Duck Hunt Duo, Jigglypuff, ROB, Villager, Olimar, Wii Fit Trainer, Dr. Mario, and Pac-Man would all qualify from Smash Bros.
I'm sorry to say but you've got it wrong, the most bizarre fighting character is the elusive random he is in nearly ever fighting game, yet it is so insecure about its appearance it takes the appearance of another fighter. this is strange because it has the ability to use any fighting stance or style. common andy id expect you to pick this one.
I have to admit, I had no idea the Flava Flav coulod knock the gold out of someone's grill. Still, the freakiest characters I've ever seen are either Arakune from Blazble or Double from Skullgirls. Imagine, you walk up to a innocent nun, only to here her say " I"ll gladly accept your tithes. In blood." Now that's something that would make me run for my life.
A video about bizarre fighting game characters, yet not even a passing mention of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure games. I mean, Dio Brando is internet meme-famous for freezing time, throwing the entire Housewares department of Wal-Mart worth of knives at his opponent, unfreezing time, then dropping a steamroller on their head. God only knows what the other characters are capable of in that game.
MaRaTheMeyvn Those are all cosmetic. The chainsaws are pretty much treated as a stance where you can move, the head explosion doesn't do anything special, and her flight is only barely over the ground.
MaRaTheMeyvn Not, they're not. Not when you have rolling bears, a girl who can move her feet faster than Sonic, a cyber man, a ninja, fighting animals, animal-themed wrestlers, and NANCY.
u never mentioned the ones from the Smash Bros series. Like Mr Game&Watch in Melee, R.O.B. in Brawl,and Duck Hunt Duo in the latest game in the series. In fact, they are all playeble in the newest Smash
JoJo's Bizarre Adventure has bizarre in the TITLE. It's hard to pick the most bizarre one as they're all so flamboyant and just plain bizarre. But I'll go for Johnny Joestar, a paraplegic former jockey who can only crawl around and can pull in his horse, which he gets up on by getting it to lick his face and doing a backwards jump onto the saddle as it lifts its head up.
Marcos Danilo : I didn't mention Gon because he isn't technically from a figthing game, being a guest character from a manga, but I guess you are right, since he's still in it, in fact.
you wanna know what I think of when I hear Phoenix Wright? I think of some character from mortal kombat and soul calibur just duking it out, but then one of them takes out a restraining order and just walks toward the other guy, pushing him/her off the platform.
Shin0bu You're everywhere I go to the point I'm seeing your comments on completely random videos at least once a day and I'm scared this is some sort of omen.
Mr. Game & Watch from Smash series? And may I add Dr. Bosconovitch from Tekken, especially the 3rd. I remember him laying on the ground for many of his combos lol.
+Scott Falcon I can't possibly no something that isn't true. Faust is a German legend made famous in plays by Christopher Marlowe and Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. Both characters are based on that. The Shaman King version is stated to be a descendant of the character.
Bruce Wayne he is a "big contributor to the bat family and without him none of Gotham would be safe, you should all love him and send him nude photos" -batman
+dragonxking24 But with Lv3 Xfactor wrights lv3 does a full 1,200,000 damage, besides virgil needs 4 bars for his 610k damage because he needs to be in demon mode.
Phoenix gets a little extra kick out of X factor though, (but probably not doubled like I inferred above), so you could make a case for It being the strongest in the game.
I'm so glad to see GG on here. Then there's Arakune from BlazBlue, who's just as weird, or maybe Platinum the Trinity, the duo who fights with a possessed staff.
I know this is like 4 years old but actually for Zappa his most power full spirit is the one that he summons when you get all his balls summoned. I dont remember his name but that's his actual most powerful spirit
I still think Voldo and Necro qualify for this list. They're more bizarre than like half of the characters on here. Heck, I only think Zappa is more bizarre than them, even then, I'm kind of iffy on that. And, looking at the comments, I have to agree with some people that a lot of the Skullgirls characters are pretty bizarre, especially Double. And Mr. Game and Watch from Smash. He's not all that strange as normal character, but for a fighting game character…just his movement and everything…pretty bizarre if you ask me.
There's also: Saturn Dyer (conehead alien prince) and Gore Gajah (brain wizard) from Star Gladiators Kuroko (background referee) from Samurai Showdown Nagare Namikawa (swimmer) and Ran Hibiki (photographer) from Rival Schools
You can also play as Abe Lincoln in the Fight Club game for PS2 and Xbox. Yes, there was a Fight Club game. Fred Durst is also a playable character in it.
