  • Every JRPG series has to have that one overly cool character you can't help but love anyway, it just so happens that Xeno has at least one per game.

      Lol, I was about to say. Morag with Aegeon perfectly fits the "Katana" archetype since he's a story Blade.
      Well, almost perfect, she doesn't betray the party but she is an antagonist to start with.

    On the betrayal thing: This archetype has a real penchant for fighting former friends. Jin has to kill Pellegri, Dunban nearly does the same to Mumkhar, Lao betrays the BLADEs and Jin kills Haze while also fighting with Mythra. Morag and Nagi don't really have this conundrum although I suppose the Brionac arc does lead to Morag fighting quite a few ardanian soldiers.

    • @jstar3382
      @jstar3382 2 года назад +5

      Jin killing Haze was a mercy killing more than anything. She hated Amalthus more than anyone else and was forced to spew his bullshit, missing part of her very core crystal because of him. Jin freed her

      @@omensoffate Final Fantasy: Spirits Within (The CGI movie) bombed so hardcore for Square, that it completely changed their outlook for future titles being developed.
      This left Tetsuya Takahashi's extensive plans for Xenogears dead in the water with little, if any, chance of being made. Eventually this would lead to Takahashi leaving with a handful of people to form Monolithsoft. And then working under ownership of Namco and now Nintendo on the Xenosaga and Xenoblade games, respectively.
      That should explain his meaning, I imagine. :P

    Crazy that noah the MAIN CHARACTER OF XENOBLADE 3 kinda falls into this archetype also

  • @famillesabot5719
    @famillesabot5719 2 года назад +2

    Update because Xenoblade 3. Spoilers
    This time the archetype is weird. Ethel is Morag 2.0, Aresha is a suicidary Dunban (having the same art name) and we have many traitors (like joran) character but no katana.
    The closes think to Jin story is N and N have a katana like sword.
    So I chose him for the archetype.
    N is a past version of Noah one of the protagonistes. He became ouroboros many times in the past but many times he also lost his girl friend M. M was a past version of Mio. Their name are Noah and Mio but I use M and N because it's easier to understand. One of his past live he made a child with M (I call him Noah jr) despite that M died. Soon aftef N as well. He says goodbye to his son in heartbreacking cutsceen. After that Z the chief of the bad guys propose a deal. He give to N the choice of live for ever with M. In exchange he need to kill his city. N accept and became Mobius with M.
    After a while M passed away for saving Mio (present version of Mio). N get mad for loosing his girl friend. After be defeated by the main cast he fun away. He fight one last time the party member but this time he accept what M trully whished. Inside Noah he didn't moove until the end of Z fight. There he desapear with Z for stoping what he doing.

    i've always loved how Citan is the polar opposite of that trope where this massive jerk is a nice person all along; He's very friendly; but is kinda of a PoS. He does a lot of pretty bad things and doesnt speak up when it would only help and be ok to do so. he also tends to say pretty cruel things. it's kind of interesting how likable doc is when you consider he lets the protagonist eat human flesh without telling him until after he's eaten it.
