    Wait, Saber?

    ...either way, Nera and Konoha.

    Ah, I've two brackets again to look at.

    Atelier Rorona: I love Sterk's outfit! Look at his clothes! I also find the intimidating yet friendly and helpful types quite interesting. Lionela has... cat puppets. Her backstory intrigues me but I'll vote for Sterkenberg.

    Tales of Vesperia: I'll go for Judith based purely on her mysterious story. Yuri looks alright but "follows his own moral code" and "anti-hero" sounds suspiciously like "douche" to my ears.

    Dragon Quest V: I actually recognize Nera/Flora from the poster of the game. She seems pretty swell, so I'll vote for her. Nothing against Sabercats, though.

    Arcana Heart 3: How... how can Fiona even carry that sword!?! Very much a case of video game logic there. So it is either the maid with the massive sword or the cute ninja girl. Both sound pretty typical of the genre to me. I'll go for cute ninja girl #21, also known as Konoha.

    Everyone seems done with the last round, so we'll close it up a teeny bit early

    Both brackets had a tie of 3-3, so I will be the tie breaker in both!

    Winner of Atelier Rorona is Lionela!







    And winner of Tales of Vesperia, and this one was a hard one, is Judith!







    Yay~

    Okay time for next round and a few hours left to the last round

    From Ys Seven


    VS


    There are some spoilers for this game if you intend to play it!

    Mishera is the Elder of the village of the Wind. She is blind, but can read the wind and knows many many things because of this. She uses Wind magic, obviously. She's a very kind and wise woman and she's always willing to help others.

    Cruxie was known as one of the strongest (if not the strongest) warriro in the Fire Village, until she caught the fatal Iksan Fever. She's supposed to stay bedridden but often does what she wants anyways. Eventually she joins the party and serves as a heavy hitter style of character.

    And from Soul Calibur:


    VS


    I can't say the whole story for both of these because I haven't played all of the games and I only remember so much! Sophitia is like the holy, virtuous woman. She's kind, selfless, faithful, strong-willed, hard working. She uses a sword and shield as her weapons and is a pretty powerful character. She makes a lot of sacrifices for her family and would do anything for them.

    Surng Mi-Na is the more rambunctious one. She can be overconfident, she has a quick wit, and she is very headstrong and determined. She doesn't like being talked down to at all and wants to be taken seriously. She is a pretty quick character and has good reach, using a Naginata as a weapon.

    48 hours and previous round closes soon~

    Ys Seven: Interesting characters both of them. We have the blind woman, or the terminally ill woman. I really like the fire and determination from Cruxie's bio, so I'll go for Cruxie.

    Soul Calibur: Isn't this series known for the scantily clad characters it possesses? In this world, is fabric and cloth like a scarily rare commodity? Clothing issues aside, I'll go with Sophitia. I know she sounds boring, but who doesn't like a kind, virtuous, family-orientated character? Almost all of my Sims 3 characters turn out that way

    The games got worse as they went along, yeah. Sadly true of a lot of fighting games But sometimes if you look past the (lack of) clothing, you can still find some awesome characters!



    The fanservice thing bothers me too, honestly. ESPECIALLY when I like a character because then I feel like they could be getting positive attention from their awesome development or writing instead of boobs (looking at you Agarest series )

    About Soul Calibur, this just sums it up, really.




    Like, there's subtle forms of exploitation, then there's literally hitting you over the head with it.

    Well like I said the series has gotten worse over time. sadly. Not that it was totally innocent of it in the first place, but it has gotten more exaggerated

    Like I'm playing Dead or Alive 5 now and I turned off the jiggle and the clothes tearing and the game is actually a super fun fighting game. And I can just choose the less revealing outfits for most (although they don't all have that option). But sometimes the games will just throw in outfits that make me just

    Tekken has gotten worse about it too :/

    EDIT: Not arguing or anything, just saying I agree xD

    Oh gosh, boob jiggle physics.


    (From Dead or Alive 5: Last Round)


    Developers spend so long on this, while when Assassin's Creed: Unity came out, the developers said there would be no female assassins because it would take too much time. Those pesky developers!
