Violence is on sale today - Anna for DLC! * Waiting for new stock! Bear with us here! *

[BluePikmin11]

They probably do amiibos of more popular FE characters than doing Anna IMO.

 

[Sid-cada]

Aaaannnd, clear! *Bzzrt*

Wow, this thread died. And I have to wonder, why?


We all know that Anna's going to appear in the next game; not doing so is practically sacrilegious to Fire Emblem as a whole at this point. So what's the hold up? Why is there no talk about her compared to other characters?

Is it because we're waiting for a reveal of her role?
Did we simply lose momentum?
Are people moving on to other characters?
Do people not find her as interesting as she once was?
Does Robin make her feel redundant?


Honestly, I still quite like the idea of her appearing. Right now, I'm stumped as to why nobody's talking about her. Am I the only one left?

 

[LoveGame]

She's still my most wanted newcomer tbh

 

[Wintropy]

I would never give up on Anna.

Glad this thread is being revived. :3

 

[Cazdon]

I would never let Anna die! We must reset the thread like you reset your system when a character dies in F.E.!!! Anna forever!!!

 

[BluePikmin11]

Let's not spam it for no real reason though.
There's not much we can do left but wait on Anna's role in the newest Fire Emblem, we already scrapped through all the topics regarding Anna already.

 

[Flaxr XIII]

Yeah we're pretty much just twiddling our thumbs waiting for Anna related news.
Anna will always be my Number 1 though.

 

[Kes]

Why is there still no Anna character-mod for brawl/pm? :/

I would love nothing more than to completely replace Roy in Project M with Anna, but I don't have the skills/know-how/time to make an Anna model myself. Ideally replace Roy completely: sound effects/voice, alt colors, change the sword to the Levin sword and the fire effect to lightning. But leave the move set intact for competitive reasons.

I'm way late to the thread, but totally a supporter of Anna for Smash.

 

[The Novice Sword]

I whole heartedly support Anna for Smash for a number of reasons.

1) She had potential to mix up the usual FE swordsman formula (which bugs me because there's a quite diverse cast of characters in the source material)

2) She's got a unique appearance that distinguishes her visually from other characters. No one would glance at her and mistake her for another FE character. (A minor point, but important from a design perspective)

3) She would add some much needed female representation to a cast largely dominated by males. Perhaps not important to some, but it is a consideration.

4) Fan appeal and recognition. She's fairly popular in her home fandom and people would have a largely positive reaction. Even if they didn't actively want her in they'd say "Oh hey cool! They're adding Anna!"

 

[Curious Villager]

Just waiting for the eventual Fire Emblem Series Amiibo wave and we'll finally get out Anna Amiibo. Yep, should be in a few years. I'll be waiting.

Oh gosh if there was an Anna Amiibo I would pre order it as soon as possible. I may have potentially missed out on the Rosalina & Luma Amiibo, but I'll definitely make sure not to miss out on Anna. c:

 

[Cazdon]

So for more discussion, I see we have a fan made Anna Kit, what/who would work best in a team doubles set? I love team doubles so I want to prompt discussion about it. If we use the OP moveset, (you can use any) the thunder after a teammate launches an opponent off stage would be awesome. But feel free to talk about anything doubles, like what would be the best teammate and stuff like that. Never give up hope!

 

[Wintropy]

Wrote up this moveset last night. Tell me what you think. :3

Spoiler: Anna

Neutral B - Silver Bow

Whips out a bow and fires an arrow directly ahead. The bow can be aimed back and forth while charging and will fire at a downward angle in mid-air

Custom 1 - Brave Bow

Arrows can be fired in quick succession, but they are much weaker

Custom 2 - Killer Bow

Arrows are much stronger and pierce, but take longer to charge and are slower when fired

Side B - Lightning

Produces a tome that casts a rune on the floor. The rune travels ahead as the attack is held and shoots a burst of light magic in the air when released. If the move is interrupted, its effect is nullified. Can't move while charging

Custom 1 - Shine

Rune releases a set distance ahead instantly and can be chained several times for weak rapid-fire bursts of light magic

Custom 2 - Purge

Charges light magic that can be stored and released at will, it travels upwards from the floor in front of rune when released

Up B - Rescue

Warps in the direction aimed. Ordinarily has mediocre range, can be charged for increased distance. If the move is interrupted, its effect is nullified. Can't move while charging

Custom 1 - Retreat

Warps at maximum distance as standard, but can only be aimed directly horizontally or vertically

Custom 2 - Recline

Warps a short distance and then reappears, can be used twice in a row to change direction and travel maximum distance

Down B - Elixir

Drinks a mysterious potion to restore health. When activated, the bottle will begin to shimmer, and will shine when fully drunk. When finished, it restores a decent amount of health. Becomes weaker the more it's used and must be replenished over time for maximum effect

Custom 1 - Confection

This peculiar creation boosts damage and knockback for ten seconds, is drunk more slowly until it replenishes

Custom 2 - Vulnerary

This bizarre cocktail restores health when damage is dealt for ten seconds, at the cost of receiving more damage while it's in effect

Final Smash - Secret Shopkeepers

Opens the Outrealm Gate on the floor directly ahead, pulling in any unsuspecting opponents that happen to be standing on it when it opens up. They're transported to a mysterious market and are promptly cut to pieces by Anna's army of identical siblings, climaxing in a powerful strike from the gal herself, with her trademark winking pose finishing the adorable onslaught off

Jab - Slashes with her sword
Jab combo - Slashes with her sword in rapid succession
F-tilt - Spins sword and around and thrusts
U-tilt - Throws coins into the air
D-tilt - Stamps with her heel
F-smash - Throws knives directly ahead
U-smash - Handstands and thrusts her heels into the air
D-smash - Spins on the spot with her sword on the floor
N-air - Blows a deadly kiss
F-air - Throws knives at a downward angle
B-air - Leans forward and strikes back with her heel
U-air - Performs a bicycle kick
D-air - Performs a drill kick
Grab - Grabs opponent with a rope
Pummel - Smacks opponent repeatedly in rapid succession
F-throw - Push-kicks opponent off
B-throw - Blows opponent back with a kiss
U-throw - Scissor-kicks opponent into the air
D-throw - Sits on opponent and winks coyly

I like the idea of it all, save for the blowing of kisses, it make it quite silly.

Other than that I sounds creative, the only one I'm not entirely sure about is down b, as healing is generally something made minimal (like 1-2 %, looking at you) unless you have to do something difficult, like Robin's nosferatu, or some sort of counter attack like Ness's absorb.

Other than those I find most of the move set plausible and fun, I especially like the idea of the F-Tilt being multiple hits, like U-Tilt.

Good job, very creative!

Is there a petition for this? I'd go through 33 pages of comments but I'm too lazy.

 

[Flaxr XIII]

Petitions do absolutely nothing so it's not really worth trying. This is a phrase I like to use often: If petitions worked, we'd have Hatsune Miku in Sonc and All Stars Racing Transformed.

 

[JaidynReiman]

In all honesty, we probably could have her in a future All-Stars racing game, because the license to use Hatsune Miku does belong to SEGA. That's actually far more likely to happen than Anna as Smash DLC...

Not that they needed to be specifically Sega licensed in that game since Wreck it Ralph, The Team Fortress guys, and I believe even someone from Yogscast were playable.

 

[Cazdon]

I understand, I just want to do all I can to make it happen, even if it doesn't I just want to tell myself I did all I could.

 

[JaidynReiman]

Not that they needed to be specifically Sega licensed in that game since Wreck it Ralph, The Team Fortress guys, and I believe even someone from Yogscast were playable.

I'm aware. That's why I said that Hatsune Miku would've actually been a fairly likely choice overall, and could very well appear in a sequel.

 

[taoxadasa]

At the moment, I think Anna is probably my most wanted Smash Bros. character. I'm not exactly sure why, but I really like the idea of her being playable, and I really would think it would be cool if her Final Smash involved Tiki or something like that.

So yeah, sign me up.

 

[Flaxr XIII]

:D Does anyone else wanna see Anna Smashified by Artsy Omni? I submitted a request but it's probably lost in a sea of Shovel Knight, Issac, and Professor Layton (all of which who are awesome characters).

Heck yeah, she was even the first character I thought of when I was thinking of who I'd like to see him draw.

 

[Cazdon]

Where do you submit to him? I'd like to submit to him as well, and the more people that submit Anna to him we'd have a better chance at seeing him draw her.

 

[Flaxr XIII]

As of now it's only to comment your request in his videos or tweet it out with the hashtag #Smashified.
Someone should make a poll or something.

Thanks!

 

[Jason the Yoshi]

Not sure if this is supposed to be a joke, but I'll support Anna being in Smash. I imagine that there would be a ton of yucks from the fans if she's in.

 

[Wintropy]

Anna is the epitome of "joke concept, brilliant execution". Who'd have actually thought that the recurring shopkeeper would appear as a playable character, and that she'd be a fine unit in her own right?

And you can support with her. YOU CAN MARRY ANNA.

 

[BluePikmin11]

It's time to crawl out of those merchant tents, WE NEED TO VOTE FOR ANNA!

 

[taoxadasa]

I voted for her!

 

[Flaxr XIII]

Does this mean I can vote for FREDDY FAZZBEAR?!?!?!!?

Nah maybe some other time. Anna definitely gets my vote. Inkling, Bandanna Dee, and Rayman have large followings so they should have a hefty vote count on their own. Ice Climbers I'll leave completely to the dev team if they want to go the SoPo route or not. This is Anna's time to shine!

 

[Cazdon]

No Anna in SMT X FE trailer. 0/10 will boycott until fixed.

 

[FalKoopa]

Voted for her. It's a one in a million chance, but why not?

 

[SSBCandidates]

What if Anna is not present at all in the new game? How would that be a factor?

 

[Jaedrik]

Ahoy, ladies and gents.
Let's get the cold, hard lead out. Pepper that poll! Serve it with a physic!

 

[shrooby]

500 characters is not enough!

 

[Wintropy]

Voted for her. It's a one in a million chance, but why not?

If Terry Pratchett has taught me anything, it's that one-in-a-million chances always work. ;3

I'll vote for her too, she's one of my most wanted newcomers and I'd love to cut prices and throats with her spangly wee sword!

 

[Cazdon]

Even though, people like to say that Fire Emblem has new reps already I still think another FE rep could be possible. With the upcoming SMT x FE and FEIF, there is plenty of reason with promotion of product. That's the whole reason that they added right? I just wanna keep my expectations realistic.

 

[IceAnt573]

I honestly think Anna would be a really cool character to have if she could use GBA Fire Emblem staves like the Berserk and Sleep Staves.

 

[IceBreakerXY]

can i be added to the supporter list.I supported her for awhile but didn't know she had a thread.

Ditto here. I don't think I'm officially on the list.
