My girlfriend really, really, really, really wanted Corrin but didn't think they had a chance in this or the next Smash game, so I was very happy when they were confirmed. I supported them too, but I didn't think there any chance of it happening. I did support Tiki because of how interesting I thought a tranforming Manakete character would be, and I guess I kinda got that in a tangential sort of way!
Incidentally, if you removed Corrin's (friggin' demonic chainsaw) sword, they'd still be one of the most unique fighters in terms of both aesthetics and effects. Yet somehow having a sword (that is quite honestly secondary to the fact that they're a ****ing water-bending dragon-man eldritch abomination) is enough to get them dumped into the wretched netherworld of "just another generic weeb swordfighter".
Oh Smash fans, never change~ ;3
