I really spoil my brother. In February I got him a Switch and Mario Kart 8, March I got him a Switch case and a protective screen for it and this month I got him Smash and the fighter pass.

Not trying to sound like I'm against Erdrick, but what legs does the characters have the stand on besides leakers? People assume he's basically in because of leakers, but those are not official and aren't 100% reliable so let's remove those from the equation for a moment.

K. Rool was my most wanted Smash newcomer for a long time even though I hardly played any games where he was present prior to the game coming out.

I just took an interest in the character after seeing his trophy and related kremlings trophies in Brawl, and years later I started watching footage of his boss fights on Youtube. The character always seemed like a really fun villain, and his boss fights fascinated me with how they were designed. Mario Super Sluggers (which I do own) was one of his last appearances up until Ultimate, and I was among the many people who clamored for his return. His decade-long absence was crazy.

I think I hate Wario.


Uh, what is happening here?
Do you think that people should be able to use reaction images and gifs of things they've never played?

OR DO YOU THINK IT MAKES THEM FRAUDULENT POSERS?

Dragon Quest is pretty much John Videogames over in Japan. It's a cultural phenomenon and has massively influenced RPGS as a whole with a long legacy on Nintendo systems. Erdrick is the most recurring and popular hero from the series.

I'm very much against meme elitism, let people post dumb reaction images from stuff they never saw before. Freedom for ****posters.

Do we have any evidence supporting this statement specifically? I know that DQ3 is generally considered the favorite in Japan, but is there anything explicitly stating that Erdrick is the most popular hero out of all DQ?

No it's not.
Yuusha is Erdrick's class, and in english is translated to Warrior or Hero in Dragon Quest.

Yes, Yuusha can translate as that, but it also translates as "Brave". it has multiple meanings.

this is the line of thinking i clung to while still hoping it was a bravely rep, but as we've seen, 'brave' is just as valid a translation (specifically by the japanese, i.e. where the devs are coming from) for yuusha

A perfectly justifiable and financially sensible decision.
i took economics and personal finance as a required class in my high school so that means i'm the most financially responsible person here

I refuse to accept any argument that uses Phoneix Wright gifs without even knowing the difference between a ladder and a step-ladder.

That is pretty good evidence lol! Brave is such a broad word, but I'll try to keep this in mind.
It's because it's such a broad term that people think it makes more sense to apply it to one character who gives it context beyond "The Hero Trait".

Tatsu is annoying, sure, but at least he's not offensively bad like Tora.
I can't think of a single good thing about Tatsu. He isn't useful to the group and the narrative would actually be strengthened if he was gone. He almost gets people killed twice in the main story due to sheer stupidity.

I can think of several good things about Tora. He's genuinely kind, quick to build others up and isn't gonna let destiny tell him what he can and can't do. He contributes to the group and the group respects him for it.

You are giving an obscene amount of weight to Tora's perviness when it barely shows up in 5% of the scenes he's in.
