Rhea steps down because she wanted you to be her successor anyway, because then she technically stays in power.

She wants you, no, her mother to be in power. That’s what she wanted from the beginning.

Basically, yes, war is bad. But living under the rule of a being that kills folks who think differently in a regime that is effectively Church and State combined? No thanks.

Change doesn’t happen unless the steps that are taken, are taken. More people disagreeing with somebody doesn’t make them right by default. The entire continent buys into the faith of the region because it makes decisions for them and tells them what to think (not so different from some folks in the real world to be fair).

I’ve yet to see any reason to believe Rhea would willingly give up her throne to the people. The BE ending is the only one where that actually happens, because she’s removed from power, after she herself sets fire to an entire city, the capital of the people who follow her closest...just like she takes advantage of Dimitri and leaves him to die after she fails.

I’m the context of Three Houses, I’m still with Edelgard. The world needs to change and frankly, not incrementally.

Really comes down to ideology.

Plus this “she killed thousands” is unfortunate. But as she fights, is she the one saying to “kill them all”? Rather she seems to save those she can by taking out the leaders first.

It comes down to this: fight for what you believe in against an oppressor, or letting the oppressor continue to oppress.

I see Rhea as the oppressor, who uses Dimitri as her lapdog. Dimitri is a good man, no doubt. But he lacks vision of his own, or doesn’t care enough about changing lives for the better.

Also fun fact
Black Eagles Edelgard route has no 'route the enemy' story missions, meaning Edelgard wants to keep the murder to a minimum. Edelgard's also forced to do things now as she's going to die young due to her second crest, meaning she'll die young anyway

Yeah but

If your name isn't Edel, Hubert or Claude, you can recruit basically everyone on BL, which mean if you play your card right, only two peoples you know have to die, since Claude can be spared.

Not saying it's easy, but the option is here.

The Church doesn't really kill people who think differently though, they just kill people who start wars against them, or try to assasinate their archbishop. Heck, Rhea employs several people who don't believe in the Church of Seiros, and she doesn't really push them to believe either. And its not really a state either - they have some degree of influence, but all the countries are fairly autonomous. (except the Empire, which is partially under the control of TWSITD). Rhea doesn't seem to take much interest in those affairs in the modern era.

And Dimitri does have values, he's just not preachy about them. He's too busy actually caring about the people (or being psycho, depending on when we're talking about) to give speeches about lofty ideals. Like I said, the Lord that canonically institutes some form of democracy.

I'll be a monkey's uncle. If Bird Theory is also true and were getting an SNK rep then Nakoruru?

What does this mean for Hayabusa? Could he still possibility be DLC fighter 5?

If not seems things has taken another loop in DLC speculation.

Also smh we're talking about 3H morality when the BL route is the only one that isn't grey from what I've seen

I went back digging into it sense I was having trouble remembering some of the details. Apparently, the last of the Holmes stories won't enter public domain until 2023, so in their mind the estate should maintain some control over the copyright of the character. And while in 2015, courts in the USA and Britain both determined that they would not enforce this copyright, the estate is still rather sue happy. So even if it's a case they would loose, most of these Japanese companies can't justify the cost of the lawsuit in order to secure global releases of their products. And sense the estate doesn't have the ability to enforce this in Japan to any degree, they stay out of each others way. The Conan-Doyle estate is effectively seeking down these companies, and I find this morally reprehensible. And there's nothing the courts can really do about it sense they can;t stop the estate from suing, only rule against them afterwards. Hopefully they will be forced to stop in some way after the last of the stories go public.

Glad people posted the news 3 times in a row.

Anyhow. Either this is that Nakaruru leak being real. Or we're getting ready to ROCK YOU!

Once again, the best leaks come from Nintendo ****ing up.

First we had Simon leaked via music.

Then we had Hero leaked via "Brave".

Then Joker's release was leaked by Nintendo adding the render to their website.

And now this.

There were no major leaks ever since E3.

Now we’re possibly a week or two away from the next reveal and Nintendo themselves screwed it up.

As much as I want Nakoruru. I'd be surprised at the same time they'd pick her over Terry Bogard. She maybe one of the most popular SNK characters alongside Mai Shiranui in terms of SNK females but as CutieGwen stated King of Fighters was among the inspirations for Smash.

Alright Google Search, please show me the way to see who Nakaruru is and why I should be excited for her.

Perhaps I'm maybe underestimating Nakoruru's popularity. All I know is she alongside Mai are the most popular SNK females.

Hmm. Wasn't there a leak with a female fighting character with a flying weapon of sorts a few months back?

The situation was explained to me by someone yesterday, but it was slightly wrong. So I cleared it up with someone else today. Turns out I’m not in danger if I don’t get a date.

So that’s good.
