Any leak that says Scorbunny will not become a futbol player is lying.

I don't have any sources but c'mon, really?

Though if trends are true it'll be the edgy one this time

Ultimately, how much I like the song will depend on how it is used within the game. If it's just instrumental most of the time and then the vocals kick in during the final map or credits, I'll come around but if some blue-haired girl is constantly singing it, I probably won't be a fan.
God, sometimes it felt like "Lost in Thoughts all Alone" was the only song Azura knew.

They couldn't have written one more song?

The Three Houses theme is pretty good.

I probably won't listen to it on a daily basis, but it's pretty good.

Now make a wish.

The lyrics sound normal to me. They arent hard to figure out what she is saying
They sound normal, but still jarring.

I compare it to a literal translation because that's what it sounds like. Compare these two versions of The Day by Porno Grafitti
NateWantsToBattle takes more liberty with the translation to make it flow, whereas Jonathan Young goes for a more literal translation to stick with the original. By the way I like both versions for separate reasons, and listen to both (Though Studio Yuraki does a better job compromising between a literal translation and one with liberties taken).

Lyrics like:

Yet still I hide behind this mask that I have become
My blackened heart scorched by flames, a force I can't run from
I long to stay where the light dwells to guard against the cold that I know so well


evoke a similar sense to me. I'm not going to go into the grammar of the sentences because I could surely do that, but I'm not going to exert that much effort.

Maybe listening to it more will help, but I still dislike the lyrics. Lyrics like:

They just don't sound good to me. It's like a worse version of Lifelight for a game that didn't even need an opening song.
Reminds me of a line from Guilty Gear Xrd's theme:
"Give me a break, you damn" when the more sensible english would be "Give me a break, damn you." Granted the guy's Japanese Westaboo so at least he's got an excuse.

All Might as DLC in Jump Force...

Also Boruto is current but... PFFT word??

Also Sabo and Hancock? Word? Like really I don't get it. I know One Piece damn good and I don't understand that...

Pretty much this, except it's completely English so it doesn't really get an excuse. And that doesn't change the fact that they're using EDM and Pop for the opening to a medieval strategy RPG. It's tonally jarring. At the very least Lost in Thoughts fit in that regard.

Can we all just agree that Heritors of Arcadia is a great song?

I'll take this over Three House's main theme and Lost in Thoughts any day of the week.
TOGETHER WE WILL SHOW THE WORLD WHAT WE CAN DO
YOU ARE NEXT TO ME AND I'M NEXT TO YOU
PUSH ME ON THROUGH UNTIL THE BATTLE'S WON
Is it bad that I kind of unironically like FistBump? Like, yeah it's cheesy and the lyrics are a mess but it really conveys the sense of friendship and teamwork that Forces was going for.

Ya know that theme with lyrics I posted for my game yesterday? That’s what I listen to on a daily basis. Listening to it now.
My composer have it better lyrics and drums and it’s a freaking bop now.

It's actually "Double Edged Blade," and I'll grant it's an oversight of the translation of that song. It doesn't sound that bad either, and this is coming from someone who regularly listens to English covers of songs.

That being said, it really doesn't excuse Three House's theme.

YO LOOK AT THIS
There was a problem fetching the tweet

Just for context, this plays during the final boss battle,
The boss is bassically an insane reincarnation of the devil that is addicted to music, so for his boss battle, he sings. All of this makes more sense with even more context.

Also this will be sung my one of my voice over pals, he just hasn’t recorded his lines yet, so we are using a vocaloid version as a placeholder.

Uh oh.
Is this a bad sign for the fighters pass?
Nintendo considering ways to get Fire Emblem Heroes players interested/aware of Fire Emblem: Three Houses.

Intelligent Systems is using a popular game of their's (Fire Emblem Heroes) to promote an upcoming game of their's (Fire Emblem Three Houses). We'll probably see a cross promotion of some sort, like if you buy the game you get some orbs or a free five star hero or something like that. It has no bearing on Nintendo as a whole. It certainly could, but it's not like Nintendo is really involved in this specifically.

Ok but Shigure's version is the best version so I agree with you here.

Base Lost in Thoughts is okay. Lost in the Waves though. That's the good ****.

Nuance? On this Smashboards? That's one of the four horsemen of the apocalyspe, along with the unpranking of all users, image only posts, and the thread not being declared dead.

They said Fire Emblem Heroes players, not Smash Bros players.

I'm sure the 2 overlap, but there are differences in the playerbases.

DO NOT jump to conclusions based on an assumption that has very little to do with Smash.

Dmitri, the one no one likes, gets in.
It'll probably be Blyeth and that's the most disappointing part of it.

Hopefully it's Edelgard if we have to get one since she has an axe and that could make her a unique fighter, but it probably won't.
