I loved Sanaki as a character. Her development in RD really made her shine. she's also a really unique character, the kind you don't really see in FE nowadays.
Reee Mangs, you are mispronouncing Sanaki and Begnion, reeee unsubbed disliked! There we go, I did it for you, now you can relax and enjoy the spotlight 😊
Sanaki is definitely one of the best-written characters in Tellius. Some people argue that Micaiah being the true Apostle was dumb but it actually improves both Micaiah and Sanaki's character. Sanaki started having doubts about her legitimacy due to not hearing the voice of the goddess and started becoming jealous of Micaiah but she ended up overcoming those doubts and becoming a stronger character and ruler. Also, she eventually overcomes her jealousy and became an even more friendly person. This type of character development wouldn't have happened if Sanaki was the true apostle. As for Micaiah, she ends up turning down the offer to rule Begnion which goes to show that unlike other FE lords, she doesn't let her royalty/noble birth status define her identity. I'd argue Sanaki is a top 5 well-written character in Tellius with her only competition being Micaiah, Elincia, Soren, Jill and Kurthnaga.
I really enjoy all the Spotlights you do and I share the same opinion on Sanaki as you; I think she is a very well written character which makes me like and use her even if she is considered mediocre/bad as a unit ! :3
Mangs, thank you for making more spotlights the past few months. They are really amazing and a blast to watch. You are doing a great job and i hope you keep this up!
I actually really grew a liking on Sanaki due to her character and due to the fact that she was One of the First five star Heroes i ever pulled in FEH so this is really interesting to me
The Tellius series is such a wonderful series, the best in FE in my opinion. So many awesome and memorable characters and a great storyline. It is a gift to FE fans If only they were the games Nintendo and IS worshipped instead of Awakening and Fates
This pleases me! You pretty much covered everything that I can say about my favourite FE character (she's been my favourite ever since I first played PoR back when it first came out) without needing to best out my notes and get into hyper-specifics. Good spotlight!
Still surprised Sanaki was the first Tellius character to appear in Heroes, but she's cool so whatevs So anyway, since we're talking about Begnion, Oliver Spotlight when? :P
Around 8-12 hours of combined work usually spread out over 3-4 days. About half of it is research and writing, and I have a team og 3 people helping me with proofreading and a designer making the visuals, while I do the editing itself.
Excellent spotlight Mangs! The only thing I can think of that's missing was mention of the second mission she sent Ike and crew on, to the desert to learn about the laguz liberation army (Tormod and Muarim).
This is my favorite character from all the series, thank you Mangs, & Gnarfledarf for requesting ;) My heart rejoiced at her 5 out of 5 stars in Character rank I pretty much expected the low Utility rank tho xD
Still sad there was so little mention of base conversation in this video considering it's basically the support replacement in tellius. Still a great video though!
Though my Tellius experience isn't that deep(single playthroughs), Sanaki left a deep impression out of the cast and wasn't even deployed for most of Tellius. She was one of my favorites to use when she joined my army(was more excited than I should have been). Even out of red mages in Heroes she remains my favorite for being a little powerhouse that doesn't need to double and can handle mages. While aware of her many flaws in terms of gameplay, she is an amazing character that can draw in players despite there being better options. I'll admit looking back. One of the few things that probably helped her was Radiant Dawn's poor characterization for the playable cast, since she was relevant to story and not a new character.
It's very awesome and interesting how she wears clothes that are way too big for her. It's very symbolic of her entire situation actually. Whoever designed her character is a genius in more ways than one.
This time I won't ask for Sephiran since he's somewhat in this one. But my other always suggestion still stands: Anna (all appearances) +1h spotlight guaranteed! ;)
I never got to play Path of Radiance or Radient Dawn but the moment I pulled Sanaki in Heroes made me love her. I just need to find a good team to put her on.
Listening to this makes me realize just how in depth the stories of the Tellius games were. Sanaki played a false character to test Ike and the Greil Mercs to see if they were worthy of being hired and then she sends them instead of her own army in order for Ike to realize how cruel the Laguz slave trade was....
I really love this spotlight since Sanaki is just a really good character in the two games. I would argue about her utility but she is really bad in availability and taking hits so her utility as two stars is pretty fair, tho I still train her since she's my favorite fire mage and I like to have a mage that can double s rank each magic at end game (Soren, Ilyana, Sanaki, and Micaiah are my go to mage team). Still, great video and I'm looking forward to the next one!
You don't relasise it yet, Mangs... we found you out. You say it was someone else who poisoned Dorcas' Mutton, but it seems the Internet has uncovered the truth. YOU are the one who poisoned Dorcas!
Ok, leaving a comment below as to what character I'd like to see. Considering you've done Inigi/Laslow and Severa/Selena, it's kind of weird how Owain/Odin Dank has been left out.
I disagree with giving her Discipline - starting with S rank in fire, she needs 80 WEXP to get to SS. But Cymbeline gives a massive 8 WEXP per use, so she only needs to attack 10 times (doubling counts for two for gaining WEXP). ie. once Cymbeline has 35 uses, she'll be at SS rank for fire.
When Sanaki said she couldn't hear the Goddess's voice, I was surprised. That means that after all this time, the most powerful country in Tellius was ruled by 10 year-old little girl who managed to secretly stop racism and slavery and all that is corrupted in the system like a badass. That's when Sanaki became my fav FE character, girl knows how to rule a kingdom!
That...is a really good question. Wow...I...never ONCE thought about that actually...huh... We hear about their grandmother, but never the parents......
Jesus mangs. Mekka is right. You do refer to everyone with high growths as an est. Sanaki is not an Est. Pelleas is the Est. I swear to god if you call Linde an Est when you get her in the shadow dragon play through, I’m going to be upset.
Level-wise she's not nearly as far below average as Est/Nino though. And her growth rates don't seem to be much better than say, the Dawn Brigade's if any tbh.
How about Est, I don't know about any of the other games but she was fairly easy to train in echoes even if a mediocre strength growth can screw her over.
I'll be honest that I like Sanaki a little more than her F**KING GODDAMNED MARY SUE OLDER SIS OF HERS WHICH IS MICAIAH!!!! *sighs* I had to get that out of my way blood pressure guys blood pressure.
I know that's major spoilers to those who haven't played Radiant Dawn yet I understand that but that is only for folks who already played Radiant Dawn and/or beat this game.
My favorite strategy is in fact to make one magic user of every element? Use a Siege tome blessed in order to safely and effectively use them. It allows my sages to use physic to heal and artillery to supplement damage without risk. Though some of your sages may need a bit of staff abuse to hit C rank for Physic. Sanaki is very skilled with magic and hits quite hard even if given Meteor over Bolting. I still like her despite her lack of utility and her lack of raw speed is somewhat helped because she hits like a train. Though...Mangs is right. She isn't that good of a unit in gameplay. However she isn't useless either.
she small
she maul
but most importantly...
rule over Begnion she shall
I loved Sanaki as a character. Her development in RD really made her shine.
she's also a really unique character, the kind you don't really see in FE nowadays.
Reee Mangs, you are mispronouncing Sanaki and Begnion, reeee unsubbed disliked!
There we go, I did it for you, now you can relax and enjoy the spotlight 😊
But Mangs! you're misprnouncing Snackaki and Baconion! REEEEEEEEE!
But Maaaaaaaaaangs
Man... you were first.😂
I actually never did it doe
But Maaaaaaaangs!
Still, who cares if you mispronunce, as long as the video is good!
Wish it was the case for all, buuuuut...

The words well written and Micaiah don't belong together
@@talkingbtr-82a76 You're right. The words best written and Micaiah would be more suitable.
1:52 it was needed Mangs, the trolls at Serenes Forest deserved to burn
Just like the Begnion Senators, I too like blaming all my problems on Serenesforest.
Welp thats an inside joke of how mangs doesnt have the best opinion of serenes forest well obviously nothing is perfect
Radiant Dawn battle animations man,just cant get enough of em.
PRAISE THE SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUN
Emboar bof Beat me to it, now I gotta awkwardly delete my comment now
I love Sanaki I think this is my favorite spotlight great job mangs
I really enjoy all the Spotlights you do and I share the same opinion on Sanaki as you; I think she is a very well written character which makes me like and use her even if she is considered mediocre/bad as a unit ! :3
And she's smol~
Cherry So in turn... WE LIKE IKE
Mangs, thank you for making more spotlights the past few months. They are really amazing and a blast to watch. You are doing a great job and i hope you keep this up!
I actually really grew a liking on Sanaki due to her character and due to the fact that she was One of the First five star Heroes i ever pulled in FEH so this is really interesting to me
You know who we need a spotlight of ... the beautiful man Oliver. XD
Someone NEEDS to request him on patreon. Seriously. The beautiful man needs this!
A spotlight wouldn't be able to capture his beauty.
one of the best characters in the series not stats wise but character wise
big forehead
I love sanaki. The Tellius games are my favorite to this day. Thanks for the spotlight
Its gonna be nice watching this after my sanaki put so much work in the amelia and tana bound hero battle.
I really love her!
Spectacular! You amaze me Mangs. These character spotlights are always amazing.
The Tellius series is such a wonderful series, the best in FE in my opinion. So many awesome and memorable characters and a great storyline. It is a gift to FE fans
If only they were the games Nintendo and IS worshipped instead of Awakening and Fates
It’s ya girl
Snacky
FOREHEAD CHAN!
Xenoflux Raiden oh yeah
*snacki
I just realized her forehead was as large as her face thanks for ruining this character for me.

This pleases me!

Emperor explains ya picture XD

So anyway, since we're talking about Begnion, Oliver Spotlight when? :P
These videos are such high quality content, thanks for bringing us these so frequently, they must take ages to make
Around 8-12 hours of combined work usually spread out over 3-4 days. About half of it is research and writing, and I have a team og 3 people helping me with proofreading and a designer making the visuals, while I do the editing itself.
thank you mungs
As he's been mentioned in this Oliver is next right?
Lol, i cannot unheard that the biggest burn in serenes forest forums
Excellent spotlight Mangs! The only thing I can think of that's missing was mention of the second mission she sent Ike and crew on, to the desert to learn about the laguz liberation army (Tormod and Muarim).
He mentionned the missions without going through the details but he forgot about Sanaki stopping Begnion's occupation of Daein.
Roses are red
Sanaki is a Mage
Heroes didn't realise
That's she's also underage
I really like Sanaki! One of my favorite tellius characters! Thanks for a great spotlight Mangs!
This is my favorite character from all the series, thank you Mangs, & Gnarfledarf for requesting ;)
My heart rejoiced at her 5 out of 5 stars in Character rank
I pretty much expected the low Utility rank tho xD
7.8/10 no gargantuan forehead jokes

Hello Sanaki!
This is one of my favourite characters in the Tellius saga, glad to see a spotlight about her!
You just did the false empress of Begnion...now is time for the false king of Daein, Pelleas.
This makes me want to play the Tellius games so bad.
SEPHIRAN PLEASE OMG
Although, Sanaki is required to be taken to the endgame though from what I recall, so training her and even using her is a must.
You can undeploy Sanaki. She's more of a liability than a help.
P-p-p-pitfall
It's very awesome and interesting how she wears clothes that are way too big for her. It's very symbolic of her entire situation actually. Whoever designed her character is a genius in more ways than one.
This time I won't ask for Sephiran since he's somewhat in this one.
But my other always suggestion still stands: Anna (all appearances) +1h spotlight guaranteed! ;)
Yesss! It's the loli empress!
She's one of my favorite characters in Fire Emblem.
She could've aimed for top waifu as well if she wasn't 13.
I'm sure you can find adult sankai fan art
I never got to play Path of Radiance or Radient Dawn but the moment I pulled Sanaki in Heroes made me love her. I just need to find a good team to put her on.
Ephraim or Eirika are good team mates for her, if you want to use Rauðrblade on Sanaki, since they can buff multiple stats at once.
Gnarfledarf In that case I'll need to pull another Tharja and a better Eirika since mine has bad IVs. My Ephraim is good to go.
Is this a Christmas miracle?

Aw heck yeah! One of my fav characters
Hmmmm, Bless Bolting, sounds nice!
Bolting in FE10:
Disarm sage and steal in Ch 2 Part 3...
Welp.

Character spotlight for Reyson.
Ravioli Ravioli
Sanaki is best Loli
Scazura Byakuya You mistyped Genny
Scazura Byakuya gross
Wow, what a smol spotlight!
I really enjoyed this video! Sanaki's one of my favorite characters. Could you do Ilyana?
SANAKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
Plz come home Sanakiiiiiii
if you search what happened to dorcas, this channel is one of the first things to show up
I couldn't possibly be more proud.
You don't relasise it yet, Mangs... we found you out. You say it was someone else who poisoned Dorcas' Mutton, but it seems the Internet has uncovered the truth. YOU are the one who poisoned Dorcas!
Ok, leaving a comment below as to what character I'd like to see. Considering you've done Inigi/Laslow and Severa/Selena, it's kind of weird how Owain/Odin Dank has been left out.

But Discipline doubled this, so why not just put it on her to get that SS rank twice as fast and then take it off her?
When Sanaki said she couldn't hear the Goddess's voice, I was surprised. That means that after all this time, the most powerful country in Tellius was ruled by 10 year-old little girl who managed to secretly stop racism and slavery and all that is corrupted in the system like a badass.

low key, probably in my top 5 favorite characters from Tellius. Not top 5 favorite *units*, mind you, but definitely top 5 favorite characters.
Id loooove to see Tormod and or Muarim. I feel like they need a tandem spotlight
#AgiMorina
Spotlight for Oliver please
you should do Donnel, mangs. And really enjoyed this spotlight
Hey its the Loli of death and destruction
Tobin so, she's the delthea of radiant dawn?
mesquita _ yea
@@joaomesquita3069 basically except minus the speed
I love sanaki! she's my first 5 star and still has the highest atk along with brave roy out of all my units
*insert obligatory forehead memeGood job!
Sanaki is Mangs' daughter. Foreheads.
LOL
If we are already on the path of radiance/radiant dawn route.
Howsabout Sephiran?
Nice video! Could you do one for Micaiah plz?
What happened to Micaiah and Sanaki's parents?
I'm guessing the senators put poison in their mutton.
That...is a really good question. Wow...I...never ONCE thought about that actually...huh... We hear about their grandmother, but never the parents......
When are you finally gonna do a spotlight on Marth?
Best Girl.
how about Lilina (Binding Blade of course) or Artur (Sacred Stones)
Still can't believe there rule 34 of sanaki exist....
khaled kuma Rule 34:If it exists, there's porn of it
khaled kuma Really? I can
That is... disturbing
Could you do a spotlight of Ced/Sety?
Now I wanna see Meg :D
i wouldn't give a fig about this spotlight, if it wasn't on Sanaki, Empress of Begnion!
Great job as always, and if you're going to stick with Tellius, you should do the god of Radiant Dawn: Haar.
I’d love a spotlight video on Sephiran. Please, please, please.
Lilina spotlight soon?! 👀
Why was the Radiance series so fkn dope
Damn that attack was epic.
Lehran for the spotlight
So are you going to do that tailtiu spotlight
My boyd !
*SANIC*
You're too slow, you're too slow
You're too slow, you're too slow
Saniki
Jesus mangs. Mekka is right. You do refer to everyone with high growths as an est. Sanaki is not an Est. Pelleas is the Est. I swear to god if you call Linde an Est when you get her in the shadow dragon play through, I’m going to be upset.
"kliff is an est
gray is a jeigan" - Mangs
Sanaki IS the definition of an Est tho
-Joins late
-Weak bases
-Good growths
All three qualifications of an Est right there.
Level-wise she's not nearly as far below average as Est/Nino though. And her growth rates don't seem to be much better than say, the Dawn Brigade's if any tbh.
16:55 Does she really have 2 str? I mean, she's holding that tome with the tip of just one finger...
Seth next? Please? (if you haven't done him already)
How about Est, I don't know about any of the other games but she was fairly easy to train in echoes even if a mediocre strength growth can screw her over.
This makes me want to donate to your patreon. 👀 Not a matter of if, but a matter of when.
How about a Tana Spotlight?
Can you do Sigurd next? seeing that he won the recent gauntlet I think it's time he's got some love. Never mind. Curse you tharja!
Frank Seward but he lost. he was up against tharja.
I'll be honest that I like Sanaki a little more than her F**KING GODDAMNED MARY SUE OLDER SIS OF HERS WHICH IS MICAIAH!!!! *sighs* I had to get that out of my way blood pressure guys blood pressure.
I know that's major spoilers to those who haven't played Radiant Dawn yet I understand that but that is only for folks who already played Radiant Dawn and/or beat this game.
Reee Mangs, you're mispronouncing Sanaki and Begnion, reeee unsubbed disliked!
Could you do Athena or Artur next??
So that's why there's a lot of salty people on Serene Forest forums
The godess spared the strong ones
Ohhh Snacky! I member her!

Blessed meteor Sanaki is so good though
