Mini Fanfic #1175: Three Timing Rex (Super Smash Bros Ultimate X Xenoblade)

1:10 p.m. Outside of Shy Guy's LA Café...........

Waluigi: (Lay the Side of his Head on the Edge of his Knuckles While Sighing) February, the shortest month of the year. Where love is in the air, the couples starts getting more mushy as ever, and us single guys are left sitting here in misery with little to no success in romance. Tragic really....

Wario: ('Heh') For you maybe. (Proudly Ats on the Top of a Treasure Chest He Found From Somewhere) I already got me a fine date right here. (Hugs his Treasure Close to Him Using One Arm) Isn't that right, Sheela?~

Waluigi: (Raises an Eyebrow) You name your treasure Sheela?

Wario: Yep. She's been sitting on some abandoned ship under the sea for like years now or some junk? (Starts Chowing Down on a Plte Filed with Croissants he Ordered) Say what you will, but I think that name fits her perfectly.

Waluigi: (Rolls His Eyes) Uh-huh, sure. (Let's Out Another Sigh) I just don't get it. (Stretch his Arms Out in a Frustrated Manner) How are we in a brand new year and I STILL don't have a girlfriend yet? I'm tall, I'm athletic, a charmer, a really good dancer-

Wario: You're also whiny, self centered, a drama queen, you keep getting out bested by Luigi on multiple occasions, not to mention you're also a cheat.

Waluigi: (Glares at Wario) Oh and like you're the one talk, fatso! And quit talking your mouth full, this isn't a barn!

Wario: I do what I please. (Let's Out a Loud Burp) I paid for all of this, didn't I?

Waluigi: ('Groans in Annoyance') Whatever! The point of the matter is that I am WAY more deserving of getting a date than any of you losers give me credit for! Hell, even more so than-(Eyes Suddenly Begins to Widened at What Has Caught his Attention) That slimey, little weasel, Rex!

Wario: (Cease his Eating and Raises an Eyebrow at Waluigi in Confusion) Rex's a slime filled weasel?

Waluigi: No, not literally!- ('Urgh') (Points Wario to What He was Looking At Behind Him) Just turn around and see for yourself. Hurry!

Wario: Alright, I'm gonna! Sheesh. (Turns Around and See Rex Happily Talking to a Silver Haired Cat Girl Before Giving One Another a Hug From the Distance) Really? (Turns Back to Waluigi) This is what you're getting gung-ho about?

Waluigi: Gung-ho my foot! That twerp's standing out there socializing with another girl alone knowing damn well he has two girlfriends at home!

Wario: Waluigi, let the kid be- Wait. Two girlfriends?

Waluigi: That Pyra chick can transform into another chick name Mythra. They're different peas in one pod, remember?

Wario: Ahh right, right. Anyways, like I said: Leave the kid be, bro! I don't like him as much as you do, but just because he's talking to another girl, that doesn't automatically means he's cheating-Oh. (Eyes Starts To Widened as He Sees Rex Now Kissing with that Said Cat) Oookay, never mind. He's three-timer now.

Waluigi: (Points at Wario) Ha! Told you! (Crosses his Arms with Bragging Grin on his Face) Even in the depths of loneliness, Waluigi's never wrong.

Wario: Lonely, maybe. Being right, that's debatable really.

Waluigi: Shut up. (Turns Back to See Pyra Walking Towards the Duo in the Distance) Oh amd wouldja look at that?~ The girlfriends arrived~ Ready to slap the daylights out of that homewrecking ki- (Eyes Begins to Widened in Complete Shock at Pyra Now Kissing the Cat Girl's Lips) WAHHHHHHHHHH!?

Wario: (Let's Out a Single Chuckle) Wow. You were way off there, bro.

Waluigi: (Stares Growling Before Calming Himself) You know what? It's fine. I've seen this before.

Wario: (Turns to Waluigi) Seen what exactly?

Waluigi: (Turns to Wario) A scene I saw from that one romantic flick, that starts out exactly like that.

Wario: I don't follow.

Waluigi: (Groans While Tilting Wario Following to the Distant Scene in Front of Them) Just wait and watch! She's gonna turn around to Rex, tell him that it's over and- ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME RIGHT NOW!?

Wario: (Watches Pyra (Transforming into Mythra Shortly After) and Rex Kissing One Another in the Distance) Being wrong threes times in the row in one day. Super embarrassing. (Points Waluigi to the Cat Girl Sticking her Tongue Out, Lowering Down the Lower Part of her Eyelid and Fliping him Off) And it looks like thr cat girl over there agrees.

Waluigi: (Starts Growling Once More, Sizzling in Pure Rage) That snot-nose......(Gets Up From his Fist Angrily Shakes his Fist at the Cat Girl) Go ahead and laugh it up! Have fun spending time with a two bit loser like Rex!-

A rock suddenly flew over and hit Waluigi onto the Stomach, followed by another one hitting him on the head hard enough to make backflip and fall down onto the concrete ground, groaning in pain.

Wario: (Points and Laugh at Waluigi's Misery) Wahahahahaha! Serves you right!

Another Rock suddenly flies over and hit Wario on the head following two more hitting him on the stomach one by one.

Wario: (Woobling Around While Groaning in Pain) What did I do-

One more Rock flew by and socked Wario in the jaw, knocking him down instantly. As the two brother laid, unconscious, a Bandit Guy slowly shows up behind his table before grabbing the Treasure Chest and quickly high tailing himself out of her unscathed.

Meanwhile on the Other Side of the Sidewalk......

???: (Dusting her Hands With a Satisfied Smirk on her Face) ('Hmph') That'll keep those two muppets from messin' with us for a long while.

Rex: (Smiles Sheepishly at The Cat Girl Tight Next to Him and Mythra) You really didn't have to do all of that, Nia.

Nia: (Casually Shrugs) Perhaps. But you know how I am when it comes to jerks pickin' on sweetheart like you, 'hon~ (Playfully Pulling Rex's Cheek)

Mythra: (Watches the Wario Bros Still On the Ground in the Distance) Those two should considered themselves lucky that got off easy. (Pounds her Fist Onto the Palm of her Hand) 'Would've send them flying to space within seconds.

Nia: (Starts Pouting at Mythra) Seriously? Why didn't you stop me from throwin' rocks at them sooner?

Mythra: (Crosses her Arms) My nails would get broken. Duh.

Nia: (Groans While Rolling her Eyes) Of course. Leave ta you to try n' be more girly n' junk. What's the speical ocassion, huh? (Forms a Teasing Smirk on her Face) You miss me so much that you tryin' to look pretty for Recks n' I for our date today?~

Mythra: (Eyes Widened and Blushing Before Quickly Turning Away) ('Scoffs') A-As if! I dressed myself nicely cuz I wanted to, nothing else. (Starts Pouting a Bit) Besides, Pyra missed you a lot than I do anyway~

Mythra transform herself into Pyra.

Pyra: (Giggles Softly as She Turns to her Two Lovers) Don't listen to her~ She missed you since the day Rex and I moved here.

Rex: (Chuckles Lightly) And neither of us can't even begin to tell you how much we've been missing you since then.

Nia: (Places her Hands onto her Hips With Headstrong Smile on her Face ('Hmph') You better be. (Pulls Pyra and Rex into a Loving Group Hug) Cuz I missed the hell outta ya lots too!~ We have so much catch up on. (Forms a Seductive Smirk on her Face) A lot overdue cuddle n' lovin sessions to go through after this in case ya already forgot~

Pyra: (Giggles Some More) Oh come now~ Rexxy-Poo and I would never be so careless to forget something as important as that.

Rex: Oh no.

Nia: (Starts Snickering) Rexxy-Poo?

Rex: (Rolls his Eyes) Yes Nia, it's the nickname Pyra has given me for some time now. (Points at his Cat Girlfriend) But she's ONLY allowed to call me that!....And Mythra too whenever she's slightly brighter mood, but no one else!

Nia: Oh relax. I won't make too much fun of you for it. 'Sides, I already thought way cuter nickname to give you.

Rex: ('Sigh') If that's the case, then here's hoping I won't get me poked fun at it in the long run....

Nia: ('Tch') Please. I'll knock anyone's teeth in before they try n' mess with you, honey bun~ (Kiss Rex on the Cheek)

Pyra: Ooh~ I like that one.

Rex: (Smiles Softly) Yeah. It's not bad at all.

Actually, XBC3 Future Redeemed Spoilers Under here to do with something noted in one of the last cutscenes/people's misinterpretations

I think the big beef about why the Pneuma/Logos cores still being around/semi-sentient enough to "help out" is a lot because it wasn't explained, but I think a lot of people are missing a few points.

Obvs bc of my brand I gotta come in and defend Logos against the Moebius allegations before I get into everything else, but a big argument about how he and Pneuma being even remotely present "just perpetuates the xenoblade 2 feud" actually misses something mentioned. Whether Logos inhabits N's Sword or his Sword's sheath specifically, I think we are forgetting:

Z actually has no clue where it came from.

If it were to be moebius specific, he would know about it and how it came to be and so on and so forth. But he doesn't. He actively comments on how it's weird that N has it and wonders How He Got Ahold Of It. But he also Acknowledges Who/What It Is with his comment on Origin being home to "those who are as gods" in reference to the sword. Again, if it were a Moebius product, Z would know about it and how it got into people's hands. Even in the main game when Noah manifests it, X is irritated with both him AND N because the sword's existence is an inconvenience to every Moebius worth their salt.

Obviously that doesn't explain jack shit about HOW it happened. But Somehow N is running amok with the "Sword of the End" aka the Endbringer himself doctor sex (Malos/Logos), and Z is not exactly pleased but mot exactly troubled by it because it isn't actively bothering him yet. How did it come to be? Is it tied to the sword or the sheath considering N was toting around a Lucky Seven of his own prior to the Agnus Castle incident? who knows. My personal theory is that the same thing happened to Logos that happened to what i THINK happened with Pneuma.

The situation with Pneuma is...a bit more complicated, because of the ending of xenoblade 2, moreso than with Logos. We would presume both Pneuma and Malos were destroyed, but that wouldn't explain Mythra and Pyra's existence beyond that point. This goes more into what little we know about blade anatomy and how the Trinity Processor Cores of Logos and Pneuma interface with them. Seeing as they intake data, record it, and output it, it's very likely that Pneuma did a bit of a black box when handing Pyra and Mythra off to Rex. She took them, their essence, and just kinda yote it into their own vessels. Like a backup. They probably no longer had the ability of an Aegis, and I doubt they were more flesh- or blade-eater than they were mortal. That in and of itself doesn't get explained much, but I'm inclined to think the Pyra and Mythra that stay behind lived normal human lifespans.

I dont know what happened to Pyra and Mythra, but I do think that Pneuma was at least partially damaged. The aegis cores aka the Trinity Processor don't exactly respond to things the same way the average blade does. It's possible that while damaged, at least Pneuma was more intact than Logos was after XBC2.

I assume what happened is they were procured by someone (likely Nia) and kept safe as weaponry, because there's no way either of them would be fully functional as Trinity Processor cores (think: youve got 3 flash drives but only 1 of them is being recognized ik this analogy sucks its the best i got rn). Thats part of why Ontos goes apeshit and reverts to Alpha, after all.

Ontos has to do all of the problemsolving and decisionmaking that Pneuma and Logos did originally. The Alpha we meet is probably the aspect of Ontos specifically responsible for the creation of the separate worlds in the first place.

BUT, Back on the topic of the two other Processors and WTF is up with them. I dont think either of them were fully destroyed, it's likely they just returned to dormant states with no extant "avatars." So they couldn't just pop out of their cores and wander about and probably still even now can't yet, but they are probably still sentient and conscious, intaking info about the world. It's also shown they CAN heal each other, it's possible that if given enough time in Origin (considering it's an extension of Ontos) they'd just finish healing themselves and beat Ontos' ass as is their preordained purpose. But Again, given that Malos/Logos talked to Pneuma at the end of XBC2, I can only assume they're primarily non-functional and just kinda. sitting around for a bit inside their funny computer homes.

We know Lucky Seven is a Melia/Riki construct specifically and thats it's own can of worms, but I like to think Logos allied himself with N/Noah because he knew exactly what their end goal was but thats bc im a Malos Good Ending Truther. I originally personally thought that perhaps Noah's sheath/glove was Pneuma's doing, and the Sword of Origin was primarily Logos (and was just being held back by Noah's refusal to hurt people), but I'm hearing a lot about Pneuma being responsible for maintaining the Ouroboros stones, so if that's the case she's the one in charge of maintaining that power and the gauntlet is just Rule of Cool, and Origin metal is just something they can interface with because it's an extension of Ontos (currently by A/Alvis depending on the chosen gender presentation of the day, with Shulk and Rex taking the place of the other two Processors for a while to help out).

Although...Even though Lucky Seven and Ouroboros and such are metaphysical concepts given form, I'm inclined to just say outright that the sword itself is Logos simply bc it does monado arts oooo spooky.

But yeah. TLDR: Logos isnt allied with the Moebius he is strictly tied to N/Noah (although whether he's lucky seven or SPECIFICALLY the Origin Blade/When it Does Monado Shit) Pneuma is tied to either Noah's gauntlets or the ouroboros stones as a whole (although I believe the former rather than the latter bc its cooler imo), and they're used not only to beat Alpha back into place as Was Their Job in the DLC, but their job is to help finish up what Rex Shulk and co. started in making sure the worlds reunite. Also Noah is in for a rude awakening when he meets the inlaws and Mythra and Malos obliterate him for launching them into the ocean ok bye

Ranking the Xenoblade Games based on how straight they are

this is a mix of legitimate grievances about the writing and just goofing around. starting at least straight to most. Also not including X sorry I havent played it.

1. Xenoblade 2

Most of the romance in this game is light due to it being a sort of cute puppy love. Nothing actually happens between the characters and it’s mostly contained to the main characters with most side characters being free from clumsy straight love plots. There’s a couple of blushy scenes between Pyra/Mythra and Rex but most of their serious/emotional interactions are genuine and honest and don’t really get into romance or some hidden feelings they need to confess to. Even Nia’s confession is more of something for herself and she never really changes bc she’s in love or focuses on it that much. 

Beyond the main characters, sheba exists, jin and lora can be considered one sided at least romantically (she’s the one to make flirty comments in Torna and he always responds along the lines of ???) and he’s explicitly not motivated by her death, while it did obviously impact him it’s something he’d accepted and used as fuel for his ultimate goal. and of course there’s Malos, who’s own voice actor was like “cmon he was in love with Jin”. Morag and Brighid also exist. There’s even some old man furry yaoi implications with gramps and azurda in that one scene??? ngl its kind of cute. 

2. Xenoblade 3

Got a lot of points in the heteronormative category here. The main characters are paired up in m/f duos, but while 2/3 of them are romantically coded, Sena and Lanz aren’t really and Sena’s most focused relationship is probably Mio. To the game’s credit, it also doesn’t restrict them to these pairs and lets the whole group interact and have friendships and dynamics outside of the shippy ones. 

An emphasis is put on the true nature of humanity being to fall in love and have kids, but considering the context of the scene only certain parts of it really make me go “mmmmmm”. these characters are test tube babies who have never seen a real human baby and so it’s wholesome and understandable, but Monica’s wording about specifically couples later does lean towards heteronormative “everyone must grow up and have a kid.” Considering she canonically had a teenage pregnancy though and her baby daddy clearly isn’t around I expect she’s very shaped by that experience though. 

After that scene we don’t see a ton of heteronormative sentiment from city members (Ghondor, Shania, and Masha dont have any romantic sentiments, grey and rozana dont have kids and have a rather atypical but trusting relationship in general) and the focus on legacy and family is shown to have its toxic sides with Shania’s mom (who is also just. no 1 messed up lesbian in my heart).

Mio and Noah do start to have their characters focus more on romance and have their whole doomed soulmates shtick but I feel like they’re still given focus as individual characters in the main story post that revelation so I kind of forgive it, and the unhealthiest possible manifestation of their relationship is one of the main villains so. Also ngl they’re just cute, so I’m a bit biased here. I get if you’re groaning at the game pushing the main straight couple hard but at least they don’t suddenly lose all their personality when it happened. 

3. Xenoblade 1

Hoo boy. There’s just a lot of it in this game. Ngl it took me a while to properly get into Xenoblade bc while I liked the first game overall, it also just had some things that rubbed me the wrong way and 2′s general reputation didn’t make it seem much better (then I played it and fell in love and retroactively appreciate 1 more but yeah) and one of those things was how the game very quickly fridged the only female character as a love interest. Yaaaaay. 

Like yes she comes back later but at the time I was just kinda like. oh. ok then :/ and even when Fiora comes back, she’s super Shulk focused. Girl, you’ve been kidnapped and forcibly made into a cyborg and house a god who was walking around in your body but ig you’re mostly thinking about how your bf would feel. seriously when she’s fucking DYING her main concern is that Shulk doesn’t find out. like ok. Even her interactions with melia have that whole love triangle hanging over them as subtext. I greatly appreciate they didn’t got he jealousy angle and had Fiora genuinely want to reach out and be friends, but it does definitely feel like shulk is a matter constantly lingering whenever they talk.

And poor Sharla man. Seconds into meeting reyn she’s comparing him to her missing fiancé, despite still feeling he’s alive and wanting to find him. The game gives every hint that Gadolt may still be alive and rescuable, Meyneth even says smth like “I can feel this Homs still there” but not only does he die, he basically says “take care of her” to reyn like BOY you don’t know this man??? why would you say your last words to him and not your fiancé like ok. It felt like they wanted to make it “ok” for them to get together by killing him off and having him say that, even though everything until then had hinted with a hopeful tone that he could still be saved.

Ngl Melia’s unrequited love isn’t that bad but it does feel unnecessary considering how much she already suffers. Like you just really gotta rub it in huh. The fandom is wayyy worse about it than the game though, because canonically she moves on and is still surrounded by her friends and subjects and whatnot and doesn’t become some bitter scorned lover, but the fandom constantly jokes about it/acts like she is.

also some of the alt outfits, esp Sharla and Fiora’s are just...very obnoxious sexy fantasy armor. esp for flora when most of her body is supposed to be replaced with mechon parts but ig her tits were miraculously intact. They both deserve better writing ngl.

Spoiler Warning! For Xenoblade Chronicles 3: Future Redeemed

Okay... just beat Xenoblade Chronicles 3: Future Redeemed, thoughts and reactions in no particular order-

1. What the FUCK was any of that actually supposed to mean?

2. What the hell was that final post-credit-scroll shot of the two planets and fusing into one and that blue spec of light coming towards the planet?

3. HOLY FUCKING BINGLE, THEY ACKNOWLEDGED X (Chapter 5′s cutscenes inside Origin- when Na’el was talking to Matthew, the radio in the background talked about the Earthlife Colonization Project, which is what created the White Whale, the ship that crashed on Mira, in X) IT’S THE SAME UNIVERSE, CONFIRMED, I WAS FUCKING *RIGHT*

4. So... Glimmer is the daughter of Rex and Pyra, right? We saw in the ending of XC3 proper that Pyra, Mythra, and Nia were all holding babies- does Glimmer have a sibling somewhere that we don’t know about? ...Is that why Matthew had an aegis crystal in his gauntlets...? Is he technically her... cousin? Is that how that would work? God why are the Pneuma girls so confusing XC2 what’s wrong with you

5. So... Nikol is the son of Shulk and Fiora, right?

6. So... Panacea is the daughter of Reyn and Sharla, right?

7. So... Linka is the daughter of Zeke and Pandoria, right? Why did they name their daughter after a type of honey?

8. Okay, what the fuck was A? Why is she named in the same format as the Moebius/Consuls? What the HELL is her deal? WHERE WAS HER CHARACTERIZATION

9. Did... Did Shulk, Rex, and A become the new Trinity Processor? Are Rex and Shulk like. The new Logos and Pneuma? Because A is Ontos. Is that the intended implication there? Because that’s DEFINITELY how I read it

10. So. Rex and Shulk like. Barely mentioned that they know/knew Nia and Melia. The Queens weren’t even in Future Redeemed. In fact, none of the other party members from 1 and 2 were ever mentioned by name- just acknowledged in passing dialogue. I said this about 3 proper and I’ll say it about Future Redeemed, too- that’s extremely fucking disappointing.

11. HOLY SHIT RIKU IS RIKI’S SON? RIKU IS KINO AND NENE’S BROTHER?

12. Why was Manana not acknowledged in Future Redeemed? And why did N show up but not M? WHY IS THE AGNIAN CAST SO NEGLECTED THIS IS DRIVING ME MAD

13. This one’s just me being ridiculous and dumb because I think it’s funny but I’m still kind of mad we didn’t get an Elma post-credits. ESPECIALLY NOW THAT X HAS BEEN ACKNOWLEDGED LIKE COME ON. They could’ve even given us KOS-MOS or T-ELOS but they didn’t! Fucking cowards.

14. So... Fogbeasts got kind of explained, finally? But why were they in Bionis’ Shoulder? And why did we never see them in Alrest? I’m very confused by this.

15. Most egregious of all- NO TYREA AGAIN. Which singlehandedly makes this trash. Justice for Tyrea. The only way this can be redeemed is if Eunie is canonically Tyrea’s daughter. There was a guy in Future Connected who had a crush on Tyrea so just fucking send it Monolith

TL;DR- Too short. Not enough of... well, not enough game, really. XC3 proper only having 7 chapters wasn’t enough for it but that honestly would’ve probably been about the perfect length for Future Redeemed, but. Alas. I can’t say I was disappointed, really, but I also don’t know that it met my expectations... much like XC3 proper, I’m very conflicted about this.

Xenoblade chronicles 3: Future Redeemed

First of all this game and this series as a whole is so incredible. Second i just beat the DLC but haven't 100% it so i have so much to scream i basically gave it a standing ovation it managed to answer juat about every answer i had about XC3 normal game and give me so much delicious and well made fanservice while still leaving a few questions, complete spoilered mad rambling under the cut

Are Noah's and N's swords Logos and Pneuma (or gifts from them?) or am i just dumb and didn't understand the final scenes because THAT WAS THE AEGIS' CORE CRYSTAL IN MATHEWS GAUNTLETS WTF!!!(We don't see Logos' core crystal but N's sword has some purple bits so maybe? or is one Mythra and the other Pyra i hope not!)... *ahem* i am very normal about this... why couldn't Rex and Shulk just say "yo kiddo yer my child" just for continuity and angst?! how dare but also thank you monolift.

Why didn't we see Fiora? love my girl and i miss her also when will we have a anime/webcomic/book about Rex/Pyra/Mythra/Nia and Shulk/Fiora doing fun slice of life family advantures?? no amount of fanfic will satisfy me (but if you have any give them to me)

After XC3 base story will A come back together with Rex and Shulk or will Glimmer, Mio, Rex's third unnamed child and Nikol loose their cool Non binary Unty (is that the gender neutral for uncle?)

The game play loop is probably the best so far i don't know if it would work for a 60 hour game i finished the story in 25 ish while taking my sweet time so i don't know but it made fighting the later enemies just as fun as the ones at the beginning something most RPG struggle i love the community build aspect that they always try to bring to the loop and this satisfied it the best (also number go up and check boxes get filled in make monkey brain happy)

did the credits confirm that the worlds fuse back together correctly or was that just Alrest or Bionis appearing from the weird 4d geometry?

Finaly thank you Takahasi and everyone that worked on these 3 games and three DLC/additional content (sorry didn't play x) it is truly a master piece of a series and i can't wait to see what you all have next in store for us be it Xenoblade related (whether it's with the characters we've seen thus far or just in the world much later in the future) or a wholly new endeavor I am already quite interested

Edit/ P.S

i might me awkward and anxious but this is an invitation to talk about XC as a whole and sorry for any grammar mistake i am quite literally ecstatic with the end of the DLC is this how people feel when they drink caffeine?

[xenoblademisadventures]

Guys, I'm in a mood. Hot takes time for each Xenoblade. >:3

Xenoblade 1

Egil is a lame antagonist

The game's themes fucking suck

Dunban is the worst designed character in the series, in terms of gameplay

Zanza was more interesting before we knew about his other half.

Metal Face is one of, if not the, single best written antagonists in the series.

Melia's character design is really ass.

Xenoblade X

The writing is actually really good. Especially factoring in the sidequests.

X has the best gameplay in the series, but it also has, by far, the worst combat.

The series has yet to make a more compelling antagonist than Lao, despite having tried repeatedly.

Elma is underrated.

X has the best plot twists in the series. In particular the mimeosome twist is the single best plot twist Monolith has ever written.

X is literally the only good open world game. Easily outclassing more famous titles like Breath of the Wild and Elden Ring.

Tatsu is inoffensive, even considering how extraneous he is.

I actually liked the food jokes. They felt homey. Even if they weren't particularly funny.

Thank fuck Cross never happened again. The actual worst protagonist in the series.

Elma has the best character design in the series. But True Form is arguably worse than Pyra.

Xenoblade 2

The only good character designs are the NPCs, and even then, 2's NPCs are much lamer than the rest of the series'.

2's additions to the lore were universally shit.

I really liked 2's combat, but I also think almost every boss fight in the game was shit.

Rex shouldn't have been in the game. Pyra should've been the actual protagonist.

The tensions between Mor Ardain and Uraya were interesting, up until the game decided to drop it for literally no reason.

It's frankly a miracle that the game is polished and playable considering how disjointed it feels fundamentally.

Dromarch and Ursula bug me particularly because Polar Bears and Cats canonically went extinct.

The music in 2 would be good if it wasn't for the horrible misusage of certain songs. Shadow of the Lowlands is the greatest offender and actually ruins the song for me, but Counterattack, Ancient Vessel, Spirit Elpys Crucible, and such were also horribly mishandled.

Tora can burn in hell. What the fuck?

I don't like anything revolving around how Klaus was handled in 2. Also the beginning of the "Meyneth never happened saga."

I don't think it counts as a hot take to say that Pyra's character design is ass, actively ruins the mood of every scene she's in, and makes the character writing worse. But I also have to add that it isn't just that the artist was jacking off. Even if Pyra was the most modestly designed character in the game, her design would still be ass. And that applies to every other shitty design in the game (except Dahlia, where the problem really is just.. why?)

2 is, by far, the worst game in the series. That said, I'd consider it a relatively inoffensive game if it wasn't a Xenoblade game, and I do get why people like it.

That said, the way 2 handles its themes is pretty lame.

Also, the way 2 concludes Pyra's and Mythra's arcs is offensively terrible. That's just not how you should ever conclude a massive arc, nor is that how you should fucking conclude a suicide arc.

"Nia. I love you. I love you and all you guys." is still the single funniest line of dialogue in the series.

Torna the Golden Country

It's really funny seeing the camera guy suffer.

This dlc singlehandedly makes Pyra a good character, despite Pyra having zero lines of dialogue in it.

I wish this was the main game.

Xenoblade DE

They made Reyn ugly.

I don't like that they lowered the cooldown of Melia's Reflect Art.

I don't like the change to Alvis's character design. Not just the core crystal, which recontextualizes how the audience interacts with the character, but also they made his jacket less fluffy. What the fuck?

I just generally don't like the Alvis is Ontos thing specifically because it I liked how he was handled in the original and I dislike the retcons 2 made to the lore. That said, I do like how the concept was handled in Future Redeemed.

I don't like the remix of Engage the Enemy. I feel like it misses the point of the original song by making the vocals so much more present.

Future Connected

I don't mind the story, but it also contributed absolutely nothing to the larger story.

Haven't played the game, but I can't imagine removing the Vision and Chain Attack mechanics from 1's combat would contribute a positive change in the gameplay.

Xenoblade 3

The designs for the main characters are, on average, presentable but not very good. In particular, I really dislike Noah's and Eunie's class outfits. They just feel out of place and don't vibe with the characters.

Z is the only good villain in this game. While N had a compelling backstory, every moment he was on screen took away from that.

Joran was such a bad villain that he made Lanz a significantly less interesting character in the process. Same with Eunie.

The only instance of "backstory character that got revived" working for me was Taion's mentor (forgot her name). Every other time, it was handled in a way that took away from the story.

3 has by far the best designed combat in the series, and I'd be surprised if Monolith manages to top it any time soon.

3's level design isn't on par with X, but I wouldn't mind the series going this direction in the future.

Camera button was the best idea the series has had in a long time.

Future Redeemed

Having the game tell you completion% singlehandedly ruined the exploration for me.

I found Rex, Glimmer, and Nikol to be rather underwhelming. Especially when I was excited to see what Monolith would do with them upon introduction.

This really should've been a standalone game rather than a DLC. Too many character arcs got skipped over. The combat seriously suffers from lack of customization options. Matthew and A didn't really have enough time to establish themselves. Neither did Na'el, even though I really like her. Alpha would've also benefitted a lot from having more time to cook.

Overall. Mixed to negative opinions about this one, but I'm still really glad to have experienced it.

A would've been the best designed support in the series if their AI couldn't use their Talent Art.

Ship canons for Nia.

Hmmmm....

Spoilers for Xenoblade 3:

I mean, her being in a poly thing with Rex, Pyra, and Mythra is canon to the series now, so that's usually what I default to. And even before that I though Nia x the Aegises was a cute pairing.

There is also an artist who draws really cute Nia x Melia stuff.

Xenoscouts DA Collab

Hey there, all you Nintendo fan artists! My friends over on DeviantArt, Twitter and Tumblr are hosting a Xenoblade Chronicles collab in which the theme is camping and scout troops. Call it Xenoscouts if you will.

Information and Rules: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1lZ3IFQACLswvW2TSlroQvc7p-j4wMc26kZfNCz8Yj7s/edit

List: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1d1A2PFiMF-TrdPdS4GXxG5W3CCfwUint5ll99aV028A/edit

After some discussion and support from various allies, my friend NinGemTitan decided to come out of retirement and host this smaller-scale collaboration. In this project, artists will draw Xenoblade Chronicles characters as scouts (like real life childhood) camping peacefully but wearing creatively designed individual uniforms. Camping is one idea that may not have been used often, so this could be fresh fun. Note that only protagonists are allowed, for the sake of peace.

The background should depict a forest (during an ambiguous season) with a cabin/tents and a campfire. One artist can volunteer and make it 8000 x 4000. Maybe a Titan or two would be fitting.

Rules (subject to change):

Please ask me for a character first, and then you can add yourself to the list, unless you want me to type your name on the list for you.

Entries must be colored and full-body (unless a camping object is in front of them).

No overly invasive watermarks. Small signatures and such will suffice.

If you wish to send me the non-watermarked versions privately (through a DM), that is perfectly fine.

Each entry in the list must be separate, for arrangement freedom.

Be creative in making your scout uniform designs, as I want you to put in full effort and have fun with your entries.

Please describe what camping activity each character would do. Examples include roasting marshmallows or fish, chopping wood, etc.

Entries must be 500 x 500 at a minimum.

Tracing, bases, and AI are completely forbidden. Art must be done 100% by you.

I will regularly check on you to make sure you're on task. Each entry has a due date of one month. To get an extension, please provide a real-world explanation AND show me a WIP, no exceptions.

Ask for only one character at a time; once finished, then ask for another one. I want to give other artists an equal chance to join and reduce the chances of overdue characters. This means no reservations, but you can ask to replace your character with a new one if available. No change-backs, though.

PNGs with transparent BGs are recommended. This saves time for the assembly.

Shadows and shading must go bottom right, for consistency.

No NSFW or raunchy content.

If applicable, artists from Twitter will be added to the list.

Reasonable character suggestions are welcome!

Our C-A-M-P-F-I-R-E S-O-N-G song.

Welcome

Welcome to my blog!

You can call me Michi. English is my second language, so I might not be fully proficient. This side blog is dedicated to my thoughts, theories, headcanons, analysis, and discussions about the Xenoblade and Xeno series (Xenogears & Xenosaga). Also sometimes I talk about Takahashi Tetsuya & Soraya Saga interview/works.

My favorite characters are Malos, Mythra, Nia, N, Melia, and Alvis. I absolutely love the Trinity Processor trio! I don’t often discuss ships, and I’m generally fine with any pairings. However, I do enjoy Trinity Processor-cest ships (Pyra x Mythra, Alvis x A, Ontos x Logos x Pneuma), Noah x N, Tyrea x Melia, Rex’s poly/harem, and Malos x Rex.

I have no issues with any type of ships or content, even if it's considered 'weird' or 'freaky'. I’m quite open-minded as long as it's fiction. If that bothers you, it might be best to block or avoid following me.

Again, This blog generally focus on analysis, thoughts and headcanon of Xenoblade series + it's characters. Shipping aren't the main focus (even if there's a chance I might talk about it once in a blue moon).

I rarely interact with others, but feel free to engage with me. I won’t discuss or respond to discourse here, and I will block anyone who are being rude.

I hope you enjoy your stay in my blog!

I also have Dreamwidth where I archive my post! Please be sure to check my DW!

i love this world because you’re in it!
