And we’re back! With more character impressions/thoughts/brainworms.

[ Character Impressions 5 (Gen 2) - da main squad (+siblings) ]

- I almost screamed when I realized Seliph has the same hairstyle as auntie Ethlyn. 🥺🥺🥺 how did I not realize this sooner???

- Leif’s smirk is giving me “Gary from Pokémon” 🤣 but he’s way too sweet to be like Gary ;P

- I miss Deirdre’s fluffy, wavy hair but straight hair suits Julia

- I love Arion (and Altena) 🥰 That is all.

[ayumitsuu]

[ Character Impressions 6 (Gen 2) - moar siblings]

- Julia sleepy, Lana sheepy 🐑 they would be the first to fall asleep at a slumber party 😴

- a bit lacklester… 😅 love the hairstyle, we’ll work on personality, and character…

- my Diarmud was… decent. He doesn’t really get to shine as a unit or as a character amidst the other mounted sword wielders.

- love Lachesis -> love Nanna 💘 the bob haircut, the feather accent… SO CUTE!!! 🥰 I wish she promoted to master knight tho (such a cool class)

- I like the way Patty talks and her energy (reminds me of Dew), but some of the things she says are like, “Whoa, gurl. Too far. Back it up or pack it up.” 🙅‍♀️

- ngl, I was a bit disappointed when I saw Febail for the first time, as Brigid’s son I was expecting… I dunno, blinding beauty. I guess Patty doesn’t have her elegant look either.

- I LOVE THE ISAACH TWINS!!!!! 😍

When you meet them for the first time, I thought Scáthach was the calm, reasonable, more timid (possibly nerdy) twin, and Larcei the feral twin. But then it’s revealed that Scáthach is also a spicy boi, itching to fight, but he’s holding back because of Oifey’s orders. 🥺😩💕

[ FE4 Character Impressions 8 - yep, still crying ]

Went with darker background for these because I’m a sucker for high contrast.

- I actually like Iucharba (Yohalva) a lot more than I was expecting (axe users get shafted in FE4 tho, and he doesn’t get sick stat growths like the other babies u_u)

- Iuchar (Yohan) seemed like an OK human being (didn’t deserve to be k-worded). His waxing poetic and death quote about loving Larcei forever was supposed to be romantic I think but it just kinda weirded me out. Sucks that you have to k-word the one you don’t recruit. Can’t it just be one of those either/or choices? :[

- imagine naming your kids: Iucharba, Iuchar, and… Brian 🤪 I can’t tell if they gave up after Brian or from the very start

- Julius x Ishtar’s story breaks my heart 😭💔 Juju didn’t do anything wrong… he was just born the “wrong” twin 💔 Ishtar took me on an emotional rollercoaster, which ended with my heart breaking for her (and Julius), what a tragedy… I just want them to be happy 🥲

📣 FINN FOR THE WINN 📣

- Finn? I think you mean, FINE 😩💦

- In all seriousness though, Finn is the hero of this story. Without him, there is no MC for Thracia 776, jus sayin’ :T Also, royal blue hair? Obviously a descendant of the Hero King 👑

- I was SO glad to see that someone survived the Valhalla BBQ. After that, my first thought about Gen 2 Lewyn was, “dayum, he got hotter???” 😳🥵💦 If wind mage, why hot? 🔥 🤔 (not complainin tho ;’D)

SHANNAN OIFEY

- I cannot… I love them so much. Also, (putting the YUM in) DAYUMMMMM x2 😳😳😳 💗 FINE-ness aside I’m so so proud of them 😭💓💞💗 *sniffle* They did so well… 😭😭😭💗💞💗💓💕💞💓💘💖💖

[ FE4 Character Impressions 9 - I draw want I want 😎 ]

I thought #8 was the last one, but Gen 2 have a severe lack of WAVY HAIR SUPREMACY, so here were are. 💁‍♀️

- Poor Kurth, you read about how he’s pretty much a genius, but he doesn’t get to do anything u_u;

- Azmur sucks (ye, I said it), I refuse to draw him

- Febail’s fine but I really wanted a beautiful blond braid-bearing boy with a bow as Brigid’s son, with matching blue hair ties with Patty

- I love drawing Byron, because he’s very close to old Hector with grey hair, also because Byron is the best 😤

- when Siggy had that touching moment where he said Lahna was like a mom, I immediately shipped it ;’D (Byron x Lahna)

- no wonder everyone wanted Arvis for emperor, Azmur sucked, Kurth got hit by the plot hammer, man’s got it all: brains, power, and looks (pretty hot amirite? ❤️‍🔥 …too soon? 🤪)

- headcanon that Gen 2 Arvis has the worst eye bags

- Gen 1 Travant was a ladykiller (literally and metaphorically), just look at the smirk on his portrait 😏

- so I thought I’d hate Travant irrevocably after he killed my fav couple, took their daughter, and pretended to be her real dad… but I was wrong. I still don’t really understand how I feel about him. He can’t be forgiven, and yet… I don’t hate him 🫣 FE4 is wild, man…

- one thing I really like about Travant is how smart he is, intelligent enemies that are calculating and don’t underestimate you are the most terrifying

Travant: “WORM.”

Me: hehe, “Wyrm.” *gets impaled by Gungnir*

Look how similar these bad boys are. I swear they were swapping hair care tips in their younger days.

FE4 comic: Trading Items (ft. Sigurd, Noish/Naoise, and special guest: pawnshopkeeper)

Dw I went back and stole everyone’s lunch money but does anyone else think the item & money trading system is a little unnecessary? 😅

BONUS: Sigurd being extra 💍💍💍

[ayumitsuu]

[ Character Impressions 7 - I’m not crying… I’m BAWLING ] 😭😭😭

-Hannibal showing dads how it’s done 😤

-Coirpre is so precious 🥺 when he blesses Altena with +5 RES? 🥺🥺🥺😭😭😭

-Ceddy bear 🥰 he’s such a sweetheart!

-FEE 💚 my solo carry (I sent Altena to join her but you get her at the end of the game so…)

-ARTHUR 💜 I can’t stop crying 😭 I love him sm

-Tine, purple chibi moon? 🌙 I like how despite her looks, she hits like a truck, a truck made of lightning ⚡️ 🛻 ⚡️

-Silvia, who? LENE BB (despite everything, Silvia had awesome kids, ty Silvia 🫡 )

-Ares is a monster 😳 Mysteltainn > all 🗡️ 🩸 I feel like he could single-handedly beat the game. (I miss Eldy tho… still mad about him 😡)

[ayumitsuu]

First time playing FE4, my impressions so far ;D

[ayumitsuu]

I'm playing FE4 Chapter 5 for the first time and this is how it's going...

[ayumitsuu]

Beat the game again, in English this time. Yes, I'm emotional. Again. T^T <3

Oh, I actually took longer on the EN run even though I destroyed the later levels and the total play time was 20 hours shorter...??? Strange. Grinding Finn x Lach in the JP run took a long time.

EN turn count: 808 / JP turn count: 748

Gen 1 MVP - Azelle (again 0_0) 68 wins

Gen 2 MVP - Fee 91 wins NINETY-ONE. GURL. GET ITTTTT. <333 (shout out to that one time she solo'd an entire fleet of dracoknights)

Lester surprised me with a respectable 61 wins ;O (2nd highest Gen 2). Was not expecting Azelle! Lester to be better than Jamke! Lester.

[ayumitsuu]

I did it… I beat Genealogy of the Holy War for the first time.

What… an -AMAZING- game…. 😭😭😭💓💗💕💞💘💓

Thanks everyone for coming along for the ride. It was so fun to play through with you! (Also thanks for keeping my first run spoiler-free 🩷)

I’m gonna go lie down…

Grinding supports and healer levels really extends your turn count huh. ;’D Surprisingly, C Rank isn’t the lowest. Destroyed the other categories ✌️

[ayumitsuu]

Travant vs Leif

They had the same ATK and DEF but Travant had 39 HIT while Leif has 100. Guess who won? ;p 💯

No no no, I don’t want to fight Arion…

Minor spoilers after the cut ✂️

Julia: I have a bad feeling if we get separated, I’ll never see you again…

What’s this called? Cinematic parallel?

Me: ah ship, here we go again…

Can somebody PLEASE kick this guy’s face in already?

[ayumitsuu]

Ayu plays FE4 (Gen 1 - Chp. 0-5)

Just some thoughts and screenshots I had while playing. Not necessarily an in-depth story walkthrough.

Prologue: Birth of the Holy Knight

Sigurd = Mega Chad

Alec x Noish = cute <3

Arden is da man

Um, Siggy? Does a 14-year-old really need real war exp?

ETHLYN X QUAN, YES 😍

AZELLE X LEX, YESSSS 💗

Arvis kinda a jerk... thx for the Silver Sword tho

Read more if you wish! Spoilers ahead!

Chapter 1: Girl of the Spirit Forest

Oh no, a bandit. Whatever shall I do? *woe is me*

Oof, aren't you that OP hottie taking all the castles from here to Jungby?

P-pretty lady... *Siggy brain go BRRRR*

Dayum. Love confession on the second meeting? This man clearly has not read any WEBTOONs.

This is titled "baddies reveal evil plot.PNG" Naga, Manfroy talks a lot...

Chapter 2: Disturbance in Agustria

In what world could you ever compete with my gurl Lach? Don't you EVER disrespect her again, you utter buffoon.

Setup to get the Elite Ring on Lachesis while preventing the triplets from ruining all your plans.

This one is titled "Lewyn rizz.PNG" but I think I missed the part I wanted. After this he says something like, "jk, you're the most beautiful just as you are."

"Eldigan is dumb.PNG" This move made absolutely no sense to me and seemed completely against Eldigan's ideals of justice and protecting the common people.

Chapter 3: Eldigan, the Lionheart

"tell him Lach.PNG" Knock some sense into your blockhead (hot) brother.

DESTROY HIM FFFFFFF 🤬

Chapter 4: Dance in the Skies

"one man holding up army.PNG" Sir, can you please MOVE????!!!??

Everyone was blaming themselves but this man was singlehandedly responsible for the tragedy at Silesse.

No thanks, I hate him. Step on a LEGO, Andrei.

Chapter 5: Doors of Destiny

*squints* Navarre...? Is that you?

YOU PROMISED!!! YOU SWORE IT!!!!!

*cries violent projectile tears*

*uncontrollable sobbing*

*deceases*

......no comment, Arvis. SHUT UP, MANFROY.

No, no, no... *Beloved One plays*

Game: *keeps going after Chp. 5*

Me, shooketh, heart shattered to pieces: W-wha... what just happened... *tears flow unbidden*

[ayumitsuu]

“Father”? No no nooooo, Travant did NOT. VILE. TRASH. SCUM OF THE EARTH >:(((((

I feel so bad for Altena when the truth comes crashing down. Gaaaaaahhh… somebody hold my poor baby girl… ;’(

The runner-up for best eyesight goes to…

Apparently the wyvernknight Seliph saw in the mountains looked sad. Uhh… how exactly did you discern that?

The WINNER of best eyesight goes to…

Again, how could they tell that Altena was a girl when she was so far away in the mountains?

Finn saw her holding Gae Bolg, with some holy light enveloping her body. Dayum.

He’s so sharp. Figured out what Travant did and why in under 0.2 milliseconds.

POV Thracian wyvernknight watches you from the mountains

[ayumitsuu]

English replay hitting me SO HARD. Getting war flashbacks to Armads...

Quan x Hector, my faves 🥰🥰🥰, also: cUrSeD wEApOnS 💀💀💀

This day...

[ayumitsuu]

Shoot, why is Travant’s kid kinda cute tho? ;/ I’m guessing I gotta k-word him…

[ayumitsuu]

Yes I killed Leif, Tine, and Arthur for some delicious flavour text vs King Blume (yay for save states! ;D)

In all of them, Blume is like, “As if you could kill me / You’re the one who’s dying here” and it sucks cause he absolutely one shots them at 100 hit (while they have 10-50 hit).

I wanna stick it to da mannnnnn. 😫😤
