So basically I just added one more character I refuse to use anymore after I try them out.
The others are Tails, Ichigo, Naruto and Goku.

I've been waiting for this moment I've been interested in One Piece for a long time, and thanks to SSF2 speculation, I've grown to be a big One Piece fan.

Now this is a character I'll be maining. This is SOOOOO HYPPPE!!!!!!!!

Every time I see Tails lumped in with non video game characters as peoples' literal scum tier I die a bit inside.

Anything that would be said against Luffy or SSF2 in general, I would just reply "it's a fangame."
Like, I understand that you wanted to see a dream character that didn't make the cut for real Smash, but for me, I would prefer they added whoever they wanted and sold me with good design.

And they did. Both Luffy and Dee look really fun.

EDIT: Though uh, you know, Shovel Knight would've been pretty cool too :3

As much as people complain, it makes sense to add Luffy with Goku, Naruto and Ichogo there. Now it feels more like an actual Smash roster if Sakurai decided "**** it, add the animes now." One Piece's popularity in Japan is insane. As in, whenever crossovers happen they get Smash 4 Mario cast levels of representation whereas Dragon Ball gets Goku, Vegeta and whoever else they felt like adding that year.

Hey you got Andy in the game! Congrats! ;D
I need to start writing fan fiction about how Andy and Luffy are brothers separated from birth. A+ material right there.

But really I hope Andy gets in so I can do the battle of the lookalikes lol.
They just confirmed Luffy is the final anime character.
Really? Did they say that on stream?

If so that's great news because the only reason I wanted to see Luffy in was so that the Shonen 4 could be complete and that their wouldn't be any need for any more anime characters. Also to do Andy VS Luffy as well if the former is in the game lol.
Now I can destroy more anime garbage with Bandana Dee.

Cool.
Luffy gonna rek you bruh.

And, the comics.

i really dont get why you guys are against anime characters IN A FAN GAME
Considering what I've heard, I'm guessing people are trying to use it as a substitute for official Smash out of feelings that anyone can do better than Sakurai.

Kind of hard for them to do that when the devs do something they disagree with that Sakurai hasn't done.

Think of it this way guys. Smash 4's special guest lineup is iconic gaming icons from 3rd parties.
Pac-Man, Sonic, Mega Man. (Ryu, Cloud)

Smash Flash has no problems with adding 3rd party characters from games, so instead SSF2's guest lineup is anime instead. :p
Funnily enough, I don't follow SSF2 so I thought Luffy was suggested kind of as a joke to complete the set, I didn't know he actually was the most wanted.

BTW, Ichigo doesn't feel like he's quite on the same level as Goku, Naruto, and Luffy here. Is there someone else that would have been more equal to those characters?

I think Ichigo's appearance was a side effect of the original game's timing, co-inciding with the give anime boom in the west as subs became more accessible. I think Astro Boy would be a bigger character but we've already got Mega Man who is Astro Boy in all but guns on his butt.

Plus a fan-voted third party that isn't an icon, at least not on the same level as the five you mentioned. :4bayonetta:

Is Astro Boy associated with Shonen Jump? That's kind of what I was referring to.

I've never heard of this character.

Honestly, SSF2 is just amazing simply by the fact of being a Smash fangame that WORKS
It might not be exactly like the official ones but it actually plays properly unlike a certain other Smash fangame

I'd say Ichigo is the least popular of the 4 inside the anime fanbase, but he's still one of the most recognizable faces
Imo they should add Ed and Jotaro so we could have anime characters from actually good anime

I don't watch his anime but I ain't even mad.

For me on fighting games: How the character fights is SIGNIFICANTLY more import than who the character is or what they does in their source material.

I main Naruto in SSF2 because I love his moveset/fightstyle. Just because I do main him, I am not required at all to like his anime or manga (and I don't like it, FYI).

Luffy? ...alright then. Not my taste, but happy for his fans. Stream's not working for me, what's his gimmick? Didn't the say he had unique ways of using Specials and Smashes?

>Starter roster

Unlockables when.
That's very impressive that they have a starter roster of 38. That number is almost as much as the complete Brawl roster and close to the number of starter characters in Smash 3DS/Wii U minus DLC characters. Kudos to these guys. A job well done.

Gonna throw some ideas as to who the unlockables will be...

- Diddy Kong
- Ganondorf
- Mewtwo
- King Dedede
- Ridley
- Lucas or another Mother character
- Ike, Lyn, or another Fire Emblem character
- Andy
- Lip
- Snake
- Simon Belmont
- Ryu or Heihachi
- Cloud

I think we're good. Don't want anime reps to be the SSF2 equivalent of Fire Emblem. :)

If you're referring to Crusade, the newest version (that I don't is playable yet?) looks really crisp and I am more interested in it than SSF2.

IIRC Bleach was still very popular during the SSF1 days and the start of the SSF2 days so it made sense as to why Ichigo was included in the game.
