“Bye Claude, see you in golden deer I guess” I think I said this exact thing to myself when I saw what happened. Same thing with the battle at gronder stuff. I still love this route though. And the characters man hoo boy. When Dedue dedied, I flipped my stuff and when he came back I was over the moon.
If you understand Claude's character his intentions is beyond just the current war He wants to ensure the closest possible victory for his goal. And by aiding the likely victor aka the side with the sword of the creator and handing over the alliance he and Dimitri will likely be able to form an allaince between Fodlan and Almyra
Claude: Hands over his relic and talks about stepping down as lord Me: Oh yay, does that mean I'll get him as a unit Claude: Ayyt, goodluck guys, imma fuck off for the rest of the route. Me:??? Me: Welp Ashe, guess you have a new bow. Doesn't matter if you don't have a crest or whatever.

One thing tragically consistent about Edelgard is she will not surrender and will not compromise, even when she knows Dimitri, Byleth and Claude want many of the same things as her and don't want to kill her. In her mind there is only complete victory or death.
@Weston Meyer I doubt that. Firstly I doubt Nintendo would do something like that. Secondly, if that was the plan why was the knife stuck in Dimitri's chest really close to where his heart would be? Pretty sure that counts as a last ditch attack.
@@simeonrice6047 Edelgard wouldn't have missed if she really wanted Dimitri dead in that moment. Trust me, suicide was exactly what she was going for, after all, she hates Rhea because she sees her as a monster holding an iron grip on humanity and she saw herself as a savior of sorts but when the one person she desired (Byleth) fought against her and her entire army was falling apart and her last chance to win was to ironically become a monster herself, an act of hypocrisy mind you, she clearly lost the will live in that moment. That's the tragedy and interesting bit of Azure Moon, insanity wins in the end.
“I really hope you studied primary colors in Garreg Mach, Claude! I thought you were supposed to be the smart one, CLAUDE!” and “Wait a minute, Edelgard had brown hair in that flashback but she’s got white hair now.” are the two parts I relate to the most-especially since my OG house was GD. My entire play of BL was this whole video, you truly captured the experience perfectly, and I’m so glad I’m not the only one Increasingly Mildly Bothered™ by Ingrid’s nonexistent strength stat. ALSO I’M REALLY GLAD YOU LOVE FELIX, TOO He needs more love He deserves it
Ingrid was shit to me until I realize she just became my most powerful avoid tank and has very high resistance. I don't know how did that happen, but I'm happy.
In my usual strategy, Ingrid doesn't need strength because she will always be one of the 3 best dodge tanks in the entire game. If you take the flying routes with her early on you can get up to 120 Avo by the end of the game with a good gambit and Alert Stance+. I would argue that Ingrid should almost never attack except to finish an enemy off, she should just get experience from dodging enemy attacks and counterattacking with a bow or lance.
I seriously could NOT press A when Dimitri only said "Dedue." at the end of that chapter. Like, I couldn't take it. I took a whole 15 minutes to process that my favorite character with Felix was DEAD. ... ... ... And then AYAYAYAAAY AWAKEN MY MASTERS THERE HE IS, WAMUU'S BACK ! :D I'm so glad I did the paralogue, phew
Seo Vania thank god anyone who has played at least one fire emblem game has the instinct to do every paralogue presented to you. New players, I hope you were wise
Played blue lions 1st because I wanted to not follow the crowd and now it's still my favorite route after doing Everything and I'm developing a superiority complex help
What did everyone else do first? I did BL first because I like blue, I like lions, that guy with the spear gets an eyepatch and a cape later, and his class looks the least like a bunch of ugly copy paste bimbos (much less the last one tho)
just realized my original comment is barely older than the three houses release date so i really no-lifed that game. I haven't played it in half a year, but no wonder i don't wanna go back to it.
Yeah the Blue Lions has a more down-to-Earth feel and all seem really close at the start unlike other houses. They all are directly affected or part of the story so it made the experience of having them first was so good
"Rest in peace, Rodrigue... I guess you could say he died like a true knight" I didn't hear any boos or guns cocking after that one, so I can only assume that John Wick was sent to kill you with a pencil.
Fun fact: with two mages who can warp, a strong unit (I used Byleth, but others might work as well), and a dancer, you can warp one unit forward, warp a White mage forward (who knows Warp), warp your strong unit to be close to the boss, and beat the level in five moves
Blue Lions is honestly my favorite house I flippen loved it!! Also that final map theme killed me... honestly one of my favorite orchestrated tracks ever!!
For sure! The Apex of the World is my favourite track in the entire game, possibly the whole franchise. The first time I heard it in Azure Moon I legitimately shed some tears.
Yeah, that ending for Blue Lions was great. I stand by my assessment: BL path has the most character moments, most drama, and most satisfying ending (even if you never did a damn thing with Those Who Slither in the Dark)
Well, actually... *SPOILERS BELOW* You do get to kill Thales when he's acting as Arundel, effectively ruining their chain of command. The Blue Lions still do the least damage to TWSITD, but at least you got to see it on-screen (unlike the Black Eagles. Still pissed about the length).
Zachataxx II I’m guessing they’ll save it for the 4th wave of dlc. I think we’ll get the other half then, or we’ll get another route entirely, but I’m pretty sure that’s where the other half of her route went
@@zachataxxii7126 Thing about Crimson Flower is, you get rid of everything that could let you take TWSITD on the way you do in VW/SS. In Azure Moon, you run around like a headless chicken so much that Thales doesn't see you coming; in CF's epilogue, they've basically won, and any real move against TWSITD will likely be met with Javelins of Light
The Blue Lions route makes you want to do one of two things: 1. Play a female character so you can marry Dimitri 2. Wish you weren't an idiot and that you had chosen female character so you could marry Dimitri
3. Always play as the female character so you can marry Dimitri. 4. Make sure Dimitri is happy and have lots and lots of babies with him. (He's perfect husband material.)
I want to stress that I will be doing the other routes as well. Golden Deer is next. Was not ready for the ending of this route man. The final cinematic and Dimitri's arc coming full circle... I thought I was safe but the feels got me good. Really enjoyed this route and the dynamic between the four childhood friends has to be my favorite part.
I actually just finished my first Azure Moon clear today and I relate to the feels, but I thought the ending cinematic was super well done and overall it was just a good experience.
"Why won't Edelgard yield?" "Well, not only does she believe that her ideals directly oppose ours, but her core belief is that these events must happen to bring about lasting change, and we cant sway her from that path no matter how much we try." "Okay, that makes sense. Why wont Claude help us then despite our goals matching up?" "Idk man dude's a leo"
You don't even need to have dimitri fight at all. just stick battallion vantage and battallion wrath plus personal battallion (damaged) plus killer weapon = every enemy that dare attacks dimitri dimitri crits before they can try.
No, I did not spam Atrocity... I did use Dimitri to face Edelgard though and boy did he dodge everything she threw at him. Also miss floofy Mercedes after the time skip. Also also, the dog in the beginning
Dimitri is a power-hungry madman, who happily genocide some people for deciding they want freedom. Well close is a form prints, trying to take control of the land for people in case you forgot. He is the lost prince of the barbarians across the mountains.
true. honestly, BL is the best route to do first. You get to see the leadup to the discovery of the Flame Emperor, you don't have anything spoiled about TWSITD (given how Hubert says you have to hunt them down after killing Edelgard), and you get to see a more personal story (as opposed to ANY of the other three routes).
You get the Duscur pass if you beat hard classic Blue Lions. Duscur is our word. We may let you say "Dusca." Depends on how well you behave. Edelgard stans may not have the Dusca Pass.
I cant believe you just called Ashe a walking lockpick. I know these videos are supposed to be jokes, but I just cant let this kind of comment pass... You make Ashe a wyvern knight and make him a flying lockpick!
The joke at 2:45 put my sister (who actually completed the Blue Lion's route) into tears of sad laughter. Congrats on that, can't wait to see your GD video (hopefully after I finally beat that route)
I literally just finished my fourth run and am getting that after game sadness that I won't be able to experience this masterpiece for the first time ever again. Then your video comes out and reminds me of all the fun times I had on my first run, over a month ago now. (did BL, GD, then all the BE stuff in two runs) Really cheered me up, thanks dude, really looking forward to the rest of them.
"Why is Dimitri laughin-" *leans forward* You got me good Bisquick Edit: You better back off Mercedes' design there buddo, short hair > floof all day every day. J.K. love ya QuickBix
I think I speak for all of us when I say that last bit was the most relatable and heart-wrenching things I've ever seen. That cutscene really makes you power life and reevaluate what really matters.
My Ashe must've been very lucky, because his strength was high enough to go good damage, while also critting just about everything. Bernadetta on the other hand...
2:26, I thought the game was giving me an option to side with Claude until he flew over and killed my Mercedes. It was a real "kill every last one of them" moment for me right then and there.
I played every paralogue, so I saw Dedue come back. Originally, I wondered if Gilbert was Dedue’s replacement unit (since Dedue was my tank as a fortress knight), but was glad when he came back
When you mentioned Annette not getting any speed growths, it reminded me of the Lucky Crit video where not only did she get a *drum roll* lucky crit, but she got a speed growth right after Byleth didn’t. On a similar note, I apparently got REALLY lucky with Ashe on my BL run, he got strength growths pretty much every other level. Regarding the final boss though, I made sure to set everything up so that Dimitri got the killing blow with the only time I actually used Atrocity since I’m one of those people that save Relics for endgame.
Me with gronder field: ohh, they say it’s foggy so THAT’s why we’ll probably be fighting the deer too, we can’t tell friend from foe! The game: actually the fog cleared up, NOW the battle starts. Have fun killing your friends for no reason! Me: but why tho
So here I am not caring that much about Gilberts supports, I decide "ya know maybe I should make ammends with his daugter. I get the C support the day their paralogue goes away. So now I am replaying BL (after all the other routes) Dmitri Solo as well as see paralogue that is only in the BL path.
Me when seeing brown-haired Edelgard's flashback in BL after doing GD: "....mental note: On BE, recruit Lysethia and get supporting with Edelgard ASAP."
A year and a half later and I think it's weird that the part from this video I quote the most is paraphrasing "Bye Claude, see you in Golden Deer I guess." By which I mean just substitute Claude for anyone leaving anything, they all go to Golden Deer
How I beat the final boss was dumb, I buffed Dmitri and Annette with Retribution( temporary Distant counter) then let the boss attack me as far as possible while keeping there health up. Together they one rounded each of the bosses health bars I never used retribution after that ever again. Edit: this is with the boss's close range move not the long range. I don't know if that would work. Edit: You can't counter the long range attack.
@@NEETKitten I dont know I preferred marrying Dorothea. I wasnt feeling the chemistry between El and byleth. She's cute but she left bad taste on my mouth. She's well written character though.
@@Hipe2124 She's a better character when she's the villain. When you join her she's ABSOLUTELY OBSESSED WITH YOU. She gives off this vibe the whole route of "I'm actually this lovable uwu dork who listens to Byleth-sama instead of a BADASS LEADER OF THE BIGGEST EMPIRE IN FODLAN WHO'S READY TO KILL ANY OF HER SOLDIERS IF IF SHE GETS A NICKEL OUT OF IT."
Bruh I didn't even know that it was necessary to do the duscur parlouge to get dedue back because that was like the only one I did on my first playthrough and I'm glad I did cause I would've been so upset if he was gone. I did it cause I was interested in the duscur story
I feel like I should say man, sometimes a come back to this video every once in a while and laugh just as hard as the first time I saw it. Youre fuckin hilarious man :)
I just finished BL as my first route and I.... I dont want to play other route. I can wholly accept it as the entire game. I'll take my ending with Dimitri as the only ending in this game, thanks
1:31 ikr! In new game plus can you change her back to school outfit? I actually don’t mind her hair and I actually love her outfit, but she looks really old. (even though she’s almost 30)
I can't tell who is better or worse. Annette gets rally str at lvl 1, so you know her role from the get go. Ignatz comes with curve shot, so it lets you avoid Hanneman and Dorothea's counter attack, and they hit real hard in maddening. And once you somehow miraculously get Ignatz pass level 5, he has good speed and physic, on top of getting rally speed better.
@@FFXfever Annette uses Magic, Magic in this game is godlike. Ignatz is a mediocre Attacker with shit hit rate despite his skill. He gains Rallys by just training his Authority. That's all you need

Yeah, that ending for Blue Lions was great. I stand by my assessment: BL path has the most character moments, most drama, and most satisfying ending (even if you never did a damn thing with Those Who Slither in the Dark)
Which means Those Who Slither are free to work against the Church, and you'll have no idea they're doing it. Some happy ending.
Well, actually...
*SPOILERS BELOW*
You do get to kill Thales when he's acting as Arundel, effectively ruining their chain of command. The Blue Lions still do the least damage to TWSITD, but at least you got to see it on-screen (unlike the Black Eagles. Still pissed about the length).
Zachataxx II I’m guessing they’ll save it for the 4th wave of dlc. I think we’ll get the other half then, or we’ll get another route entirely, but I’m pretty sure that’s where the other half of her route went
@@AndrewTheZ Dude by the end of it Thales and Myson are both dead. Sure Shamabala is still around, but they've essentially been driven from power.
@@zachataxxii7126 Thing about Crimson Flower is, you get rid of everything that could let you take TWSITD on the way you do in VW/SS. In Azure Moon, you run around like a headless chicken so much that Thales doesn't see you coming; in CF's epilogue, they've basically won, and any real move against TWSITD will likely be met with Javelins of Light
We shared the same thought process on Felix's character and I think that says something about his character
"hE dIiIiieD lIkE a TrUe KnIgHt"
Ingrid is hit or miss when it comes to strength but that's what energy drops are for
She is hit or miss…
I guess they never miss, huh?
Or just promote her to a Wyvern Knight. It kinda fixes a lot of issues lol.
I mean, I recruited her on my first playthrough (Black Eagles) and she was pretty solid. Nigh untouchable with Aurora shield.
no, those are for Teach
The Blue Lions route makes you want to do one of two things:
1. Play a female character so you can marry Dimitri
2. Wish you weren't an idiot and that you had chosen female character so you could marry Dimitri
3. Always play as the female character so you can marry Dimitri.
4. Make sure Dimitri is happy and have lots and lots of babies with him.
(He's perfect husband material.)
Phillip Kim Seriously, if Edelgard is given the bi option, all of the lords should’ve, Claude especially!
Well I maried Ingrid, and I don’t regret my choice
Stupid straight fools, play a female character to bang Milfcedes!
@@moonlight2870 Mercie's bi? I know what I must do now.
I want to stress that I will be doing the other routes as well. Golden Deer is next.
Was not ready for the ending of this route man. The final cinematic and Dimitri's arc coming full circle... I thought I was safe but the feels got me good. Really enjoyed this route and the dynamic between the four childhood friends has to be my favorite part.
Bisquick Mix psst hey am one my 99th play through and I still can’t stop marrying Leonie... somethings wrong with my game.
Bro blue lion ending had me crying damn the feels man.
I actually just finished my first Azure Moon clear today and I relate to the feels, but I thought the ending cinematic was super well done and overall it was just a good experience.
Bryson Frederick I wholeheartedly agree
So I did The black eagles route first and then seeing the ending for the Blue lions broke my heart
"Why won't Edelgard yield?"
"Well, not only does she believe that her ideals directly oppose ours, but her core belief is that these events must happen to bring about lasting change, and we cant sway her from that path no matter how much we try."
"Okay, that makes sense. Why wont Claude help us then despite our goals matching up?"
"Idk man dude's a leo"
Next time I play Blue Lions, I think I'm going to make Dimitri a War Master...Crit every last one of them!
ZXKW War Master on Dimitri is insane, he really will kill every last one of them
He's bad with axes, so that'll be either really difficult or a lot of grinding
That's illegal sir
With his post timeskip class, he was still critting left and right after Flame Emperor reveal
You don't even need to have dimitri fight at all. just stick battallion vantage and battallion wrath plus personal battallion (damaged) plus killer weapon = every enemy that dare attacks dimitri dimitri crits before they can try.
No, I did not spam Atrocity... I did use Dimitri to face Edelgard though and boy did he dodge everything she threw at him.
Also miss floofy Mercedes after the time skip.
Also also, the dog in the beginning
Hey bisquick you gonna do the other houses
Bisquick: I’m going to MEME EVERY LAST ONE OF THEM
Rex The1andonly MEME EVERY LAST ONE OF THEM
Dimitri turn into a crazy man but still hot tho.
The bad boy effect
Dimitri is a power-hungry madman, who happily genocide some people for deciding they want freedom. Well close is a form prints, trying to take control of the land for people in case you forgot. He is the lost prince of the barbarians across the mountains.
As the FELLA who did Blue Lions first. I can say with 100% confirmation that this is accurate. Every word spoken.
true. honestly, BL is the best route to do first. You get to see the leadup to the discovery of the Flame Emperor, you don't have anything spoiled about TWSITD (given how Hubert says you have to hunt them down after killing Edelgard), and you get to see a more personal story (as opposed to ANY of the other three routes).
You get the Duscur pass if you beat hard classic Blue Lions. Duscur is our word. We may let you say "Dusca." Depends on how well you behave. Edelgard stans may not have the Dusca Pass.
wait people play this game on normal?
Is it really “playing”
@@patriciojara7902 normal mode more like visual novel mode
ok but if I beat BL route on maddening with no NG+ can I say the D word with the hard r.
If you go maddening classic with no NG+, Dedue comes to your house and gives you a thumbs up
No one expected Dedue to actually die, yet we all cried when he came back more beautiful than ever
I cant believe you just called Ashe a walking lockpick. I know these videos are supposed to be jokes, but I just cant let this kind of comment pass...
You make Ashe a wyvern knight and make him a flying lockpick!
...you little...
"Alright we're about to take on the final bos-aaaaAAAAAH"
god same lmaooo
This route sucker punched me right in the feels, but memes like this make it better
The joke at 2:45 put my sister (who actually completed the Blue Lion's route) into tears of sad laughter. Congrats on that, can't wait to see your GD video (hopefully after I finally beat that route)
I literally just finished my fourth run and am getting that after game sadness that I won't be able to experience this masterpiece for the first time ever again. Then your video comes out and reminds me of all the fun times I had on my first run, over a month ago now. (did BL, GD, then all the BE stuff in two runs) Really cheered me up, thanks dude, really looking forward to the rest of them.
I loved the jokes about Ingrid's strength stat, way too true lol. Also Felix is very much one of the best boys.
I only minded her stregth stat in the beginning. Now I just love her as a dodge tank
"Why is Dimitri laughin-"
*leans forward*
You got me good Bisquick
Edit: You better back off Mercedes' design there buddo, short hair > floof all day every day.
J.K. love ya QuickBix
Dangerously Convenient thanks x)
@@bismix4 Thank you for top tier quality vids!
There are dozens of us! DOZENS!!!
Not seeing the entirely of this route yet, but being spoiled by this biscuit is worth it.
Blue Lions was my favorite route.
Same. Whenever someone says that Black Eagles is best, I always use Dimitri’s line from when he unmasks the Flame Emperor.
I think I speak for all of us when I say that last bit was the most relatable and heart-wrenching things I've ever seen. That cutscene really makes you power life and reevaluate what really matters.
My Ashe must've been very lucky, because his strength was high enough to go good damage, while also critting just about everything. Bernadetta on the other hand...
Bro my bernadetta was a god in my play through, critical hits and doubles everywhere
@@patrickripleyiii134 My Ashe and Bernie where little badasses in my play through. Lol
3:12 Literally my reaction when I saw the final boss of the Blue Lions
No! Don’t kill Ferdinand Von Aeiger! Who else will tell us that they’re better than edelgard and that we’re not noble
Crqzy Anime Lorenz
Alex Brown true
Rip Ferdinand Von Aeiger
Cause of death: Fetish for heavy armor and no pre-timeskip B support.
Lorenz Helman Gloucester
Who is gonna remind us his name?
feels bad when you wanna watch the video and support your boy but gotta avoid spoilers :(
here's a comment anyway
Amar Chunduru Thank you Amar :)
Same here fam. Finally finished BL route for my first time
2:10 I almost had a heart attack with that statement. I could have LOST Dedue if I didn't do his paralogue?
Carstea Florentin yessir
Bisquick always brings my favorite FETH content
Mamodxx Thanks Mamodxx c: 🙏
You are the immaculate one
"He DIed LIkE a tRUe knIGhT"
Grand Thunder Cross father of the year right there
Bisquick Mix did anyone in blue lions actually act like a good father?
Grand Thunder Cross 😬
@@bolthead437 uh, we never see Ashe/Dedue's fathers since they're, you know, dead.
2:26, I thought the game was giving me an option to side with Claude until he flew over and killed my Mercedes. It was a real "kill every last one of them" moment for me right then and there.
“Are we playing xenoblade!?”
*Now it’s Reyn time!*
Seeing the giant robots
Is a gundam
3:12 Holy shit that design was scary
When you mentioned time skip Mercy... I felt that 😭
"Felix's supports are okay"
*The Felix x Sylvain and Felix x Annette shippers wants to know your location*
Bruh Felix and Sylvains supports are legendary
Felix gets so many gorlz
Annette, you mean Rallybot?
Everyone: BOOOOOOOOOO
FEH: Hm, I like it.
I died at the "how do you die to one tomahawk?". That was me when I did that paralogue at first.
2:02 GOD YEAH, THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED ON MY FIRST BLUE LIONS PLAYTHROUGH
I played every paralogue, so I saw Dedue come back. Originally, I wondered if Gilbert was Dedue’s replacement unit (since Dedue was my tank as a fortress knight), but was glad when he came back
"Defeat the enemy commander"
I could kill every last one of them, OR I COULD USE THE STRIDE GAMBIT, MARCH RING, RALLYBOT, AND SPECIAL DANCE ON DIMITRI
0:53 i can feels this man PAIN.
1:50
Having Shambhala play instead of the X Files theme is something I didn't know I needed until this video.
God that Ingrid getting no strength thing is more relatable than I want to admit.
what postskip mercie makes up in floof is her outfit. its literally the best
1:50 Edlegard is kaneki confirmed?
When you mentioned Annette not getting any speed growths, it reminded me of the Lucky Crit video where not only did she get a *drum roll* lucky crit, but she got a speed growth right after Byleth didn’t. On a similar note, I apparently got REALLY lucky with Ashe on my BL run, he got strength growths pretty much every other level. Regarding the final boss though, I made sure to set everything up so that Dimitri got the killing blow with the only time I actually used Atrocity since I’m one of those people that save Relics for endgame.
I'm pretty sure i'm straight, but when i saw dimitri post timeskip...
Oh boy my lance was ready to commit some atrocities
Dear lord
''Ashe, you mean Walking Lockpick? Hahaha''
I think you mean FLYING Lockpick
Me with gronder field: ohh, they say it’s foggy so THAT’s why we’ll probably be fighting the deer too, we can’t tell friend from foe!
The game: actually the fog cleared up, NOW the battle starts. Have fun killing your friends for no reason!
Me: but why tho
Well do you WANT to play that map in FOW?
@@gratedshtick I actually do XD Just my opinion ;(
'Yo they've ruined time skip Mercedes' I'm crying right now bc you reminded me.
My Dimitri was so strong by the end, and Blue LIons was my first playthrough, that I didn't need to spam Atrocity... I did anyway.
SirVyre it’s too fun to pass up!
The first time I used it was the battle of gronder, to be able to decomission Petra with gusto! It did the trick.
So here I am not caring that much about Gilberts supports, I decide "ya know maybe I should make ammends with his daugter. I get the C support the day their paralogue goes away.
So now I am replaying BL (after all the other routes) Dmitri Solo as well as see paralogue that is only in the BL path.
2:27 I guess you could say Claude is more of a CLOD, huh.
Dude, this is probably your best video at last for me.
Me when seeing brown-haired Edelgard's flashback in BL after doing GD: "....mental note: On BE, recruit Lysethia and get supporting with Edelgard ASAP."
A year and a half later and I think it's weird that the part from this video I quote the most is paraphrasing "Bye Claude, see you in Golden Deer I guess."
By which I mean just substitute Claude for anyone leaving anything, they all go to Golden Deer
How I beat the final boss was dumb, I buffed Dmitri and Annette with Retribution( temporary Distant counter) then let the boss attack me as far as possible while keeping there health up. Together they one rounded each of the bosses health bars I never used retribution after that ever again.
Edit: this is with the boss's close range move not the long range. I don't know if that would work.
Edit: You can't counter the long range attack.
How to make an entire crowd of people, enough to fill the Javits Center, cry with one word:
El
*_Dimitri doesn't have a bi option and I picked male Byleth like a fool_*
Me:"I'LL NEVER FORGIVE THE JAPANESE!"
At least Edelgard goes either way.
@@NEETKitten I dont know I preferred marrying Dorothea. I wasnt feeling the chemistry between El and byleth. She's cute but she left bad taste on my mouth. She's well written character though.
@@Hipe2124 She's a better character when she's the villain.
When you join her she's ABSOLUTELY OBSESSED WITH YOU. She gives off this vibe the whole route of "I'm actually this lovable uwu dork who listens to Byleth-sama instead of a BADASS LEADER OF THE BIGGEST EMPIRE IN FODLAN WHO'S READY TO KILL ANY OF HER SOLDIERS IF IF SHE GETS A NICKEL OUT OF IT."
This channel is underrated
Bruh I didn't even know that it was necessary to do the duscur parlouge to get dedue back because that was like the only one I did on my first playthrough and I'm glad I did cause I would've been so upset if he was gone. I did it cause I was interested in the duscur story
I feel like I should say man, sometimes a come back to this video every once in a while and laugh just as hard as the first time I saw it. Youre fuckin hilarious man :)
I just finished BL as my first route and I....
I dont want to play other route. I can wholly accept it as the entire game. I'll take my ending with Dimitri as the only ending in this game, thanks
The Edelgard-Lysithea support explains the change of their hair color
"Ok so what is she gonna become a dragon orAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"
"There's no floof."
Exactly it's a war crime.
1:31 ikr! In new game plus can you change her back to school outfit? I actually don’t mind her hair and I actually love her outfit, but she looks really old. (even though she’s almost 30)
0:55
I fukn love it, whenever you do this. This video and even the bit with the fog last vid.
3:27 Are those... Our most holy mother, Mary Immaculate images...? :)
Cerberus my mother was very religious and I keep them up to honor and respect her
"Alright we're about to take on the final boss and AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!" That killed me lol
Wait, Ingrid has low strength for a lot of people? Somebody forgot to tell my copy of the game that.
Mine too, like WTF? She was one of my top units.
RNG is often a bitch. Don't presume your experience is the default.
1:45 Good call with Shambhala (Area 17 Redux), since Those Who Slither in the Dark were responsible for what happened with Edelgard and Lysithea.
0:40 Oh boy.....Wait until Golden Deer Bis, I have certain bad unit who'd love to speak to you
I can't tell who is better or worse. Annette gets rally str at lvl 1, so you know her role from the get go. Ignatz comes with curve shot, so it lets you avoid Hanneman and Dorothea's counter attack, and they hit real hard in maddening. And once you somehow miraculously get Ignatz pass level 5, he has good speed and physic, on top of getting rally speed better.
@@FFXfever Annette uses Magic, Magic in this game is godlike. Ignatz is a mediocre Attacker with shit hit rate despite his skill. He gains Rallys by just training his Authority. That's all you need
@@kai_824 ignatz is the perfect GD dancer.. also you can be me and have a ignatz str bless but spd screwed... It hurts 1 spd lvl up in 8 lvl
2:42 My biggest nitpick in Azure Moon.
1:09 This part sent me 🤣
THE BLUE LIONS FINAL BOSS WAS LITERALLY MY EXACT REACTION OMFG
2:27 my feelings exactly!
that comment about dedue’s duscur paralogue was too real for me...
