anyway after letting the dust settle for a little bit i'm gonna say uhhhhhhhhhhhhh

55% chance of smash appearance

the grappling hook reads much more like Royal representation than an obscure menu reference, her thief costume isn't too wildly different from joker in terms of animation, and her weapons are similar enough (barring mechanical edits to accommodate length and range) to work as joker's do

at any rate, i'd feel 100% confident that this is what 'jane' is/at least was at some point in time during joker's development, and atlus will shill this game to the ends of the earth even if that means making a deal with sakurai
I dont know if I'd put the chances that high. But there's definitely something going.

what im wondering now tho is.. if she is in, how long they'd wait to release her :O

It's never unanimous in regards to characters.
Yeah, people would have rather had their preferred character but that lumps in people who were neutral on Corrin at worst with those that hated her.

There's a huge difference between "Eh, not who I wanted but they look cool" and "I ****ING HATE THIS CHARACTER WHY NOT MY PREFERRED CHARACTER I'M NOT BUYING ANYTHING NINTENDO EVER AGAIN"
You're exaggerating. When did Golden say he would never buy something from Nintendo again? I get where you're coming from, but I don't see the issue with hating an inclusion.

Man, this Kasumi in Smash talk just makes Persona 5 in Smash all the more out of place and funny, since Nintendo ain't gonna get P5 until their next-gen console/Switch.

Meanwhile, Final Fantasy 7, 9, 10/10-2 HD Remaster, 12 THE ZODIAC KILLER AGE, Chocobo's Dungeon and Crystal Chronicles Remastered is on this damn thing.

I'm talking about what happened with Corrin, not what Ghost Anger is ******** about.

Going to repeat my wild theory.

Joker is based on Arsene.
Kasumi will be based onJosephine Balsamo, the countess of Galiostro and one of the Antagonist of Arsene Lupin.
And if I take into account the first teaser dialogue of P5R with Kasumi hating on the Phantom Thieves's way of doing, it will make sense.
That and how the game is named "Royal"and how "close" she seems to Joker already-

in short, the jane train is a strange, lumbering zombie of a thing that's had a legal name change (pending better suggestions) but also found new reason to live

Hmm, OK, those are good points.

But still, was he really that deserving of a spot over character like Shadow or Dixie? Like Sonic as been in the Smash franchise for 3 games now, yet he still only as 1 character, while Castlevania get a free echo first time. You could say it's to make all fans of Castlevania happy and to make sense as to why Simon use Richter moves and vice-versa, But Donkey Kong and especially Sonic are much well-know franchise those days than Castlevania, so if we use the "deserve" argument here, I feel like I would have put priority over Shadow/Dixie than Richter. (Also Sakurai could have totally pull a Ness with Simon and say he asked help from his descendent or some **** during to the event of Judgement to learn their moves to explain how Simon could user Richter moves, it might have sounded bad, but Sakurai could have use that card without too much problems imo)

As for Kasumi place, well, I guess it depend as to how you reacted to Corrin inclusion and if getting angry at a echo fighter, which don't take alot of works anyway, is really worth it or not. In all cases, I wait until we get more info on her before I say something I might regret.
Your argument falls apart with your examples. Shadow and Dixie have actual histories and games they're in. They're not like Kasumi who's not even out yet in Japan.

i think any kasumi argument has to consider just how much atlus love shilling things

they shill P3/4 (+Golden) in smash and with a literal stageplay, they shill P3D/P5D in both games with crossover DLC, they shill Arena with Dancing DLC, they shill P5 through manga and an anime, they shill P3 with 4(?) entire movies

shilling an upcoming game through a promo in smash almost feels like nothing by their usual standards of shilling

Honestly I’m pretty sure the Simon/Richter thing is where the Echo Fighters idea originated from. They’re the only newcomer built around the mechanic after all.

nekoo out here calling this a 'wild' theory when it makes too much sense and is very probably what they're doing
some of the screenshots also show her as being close to akechi, so it's possible she could join his side for a bit
