You said that Villager's taunt where he uses a stick could be a reference to finding sticks in Animal Crossing, but sticks were introduced in Animal Crossing New Horizons, which came out after Super Smash Bros for 3DS/Wii U.
Damn Nintendo for being too cheap to hire Steve Burton. No, I'm not buying that whole "union issue" excuse, especially since they got rid of him for FFVII Remake.
Ryu's side taunt is also referencing his common interaction with Ken that appears in games such as Street Fighter 3, where they fist bump before the battle begins.
You are COMPLETELY wrong on Villager's down taunt. Sticks weren't added to Animal Crossing until New Horizons, THIS YEAR, every other game doesn't have them.
@@Aaronitmar In Animal Crossing amiibo Festival, Mario Party clone on Wii U there was this mini-game called Desert Island Escape that was so good that it became the hidden mini-game when using the Wii U item in Animal Crossing New Leaf Welcome Amiibo. Yup what a terrifying stretch
Also, Bayonetta's long dance taunt uses the quote "If you need to learn how to talk to a lady, ask your mum!" She uses the line in Bayo 2, but it's a direct reference to Hideki Kamiya, who tends to say "Ask your mom" to people who ask him questions on Twitter.
Villager Down Taut: There was no sticks to grab on New Leaf the current AC game at the time Sm4sh came out Rosalina Up Taut: It could also be a refference of that star you use to travel around planets Little Mac Up Taunt: Could be a refference of the box cover art of Punch Out wii Little Mac Side Taunt: Can be a refference of Super Punch Out intro
2:00 MM's down taunt is specifically the animation that comes when you pause, not just when you enter the level. The fact that he zips out and immediately zips back in implies he paused the game for a second

I think the reason Mega Man’s up taunt seems familiar to you is because the pose is kinda similar to X’s pose in the cover of Maverick Hunter X, which is also the art used for X’s spirit in Ultimate
I've found that Fire Emblem characters tend to use critical hit lines (like Byleth having "Let the lesson begin", I believe) for their taunts. I feel like it could be potentially interesting to see how much of a FE game's story or conditions you could glean from their crit quotes...maybe I should try that sometime.
male corrin says "i made my choice" during his down taunt. likely a reference to the whole route split mechanic in fates, but also sounds similar to a crit line. corrin has a unique line based off his/her allegiance, and the one for revelations happens to be "i make my own fate"
You forgot the hilarious origin for the “ask your mum” part of one of Bayonetta’s taunts. The creator of the Bayonetta games, Hideki Kamiya, has a habit of responding “ask your mom” to questions on Twitter that he finds to be particularly “stupid.”
one of Bayonetta's taunts has her saying "If you need to know how to talk to a lady, ask your mom." Which is a reference to Kayima tweeting "ask your mom" to someone asking him a question on twitter and then blocking them
Greninja's down taunt COULD be a reference to some of the moves that shoot out water (namely Water Spout and Water Sport,) although I admit that connection is loose at best. It's notably also how he uses Hydro Pump for his up special.
One thing I think about Bayonetta's side taunt that I never hear anyone mention is the final pose, with one gun next to her head and one gun held forward. This is very similar to various poses she strikes right before entering combat most notably in Bayonetta 2.
It’s easy to miss since we only got the Japanese dialogue, but during Cloud’s up taunt, he says the Japanese equivalent of “Not interested.” which is one of his iconic lines from Final Fantasy 7.
I think it was clear I wasn’t referencing ACNH specifically, but Animal Crossing as a whole. I just used New Horizons footage because it was most recent and also the quickest I could record lol Edit: NVM APPARENTLY STICKS HAVEN'T BEEN A THING ROFLLLL WHAT THE HECK
I actually want to point out a few corrections about some taunts if you don’t mind. In Robin’s up taunt, male Robin states “Let’s tip the scales” and female Robin says “Time to tip the scale”, which references they’re critical quotes. In Lucina’ up taunt (Chrom’s up taunt too), she’s does a pose which reference to artwork done in FE Awakening where Chrom and Lucina do the same pose. Her side taunt mirrors Marty’s side taunt, which I believe could be two reasons. 1. Lucina is a descendant of Marth. 2. In the first third of FE Awakening, Lucina hides her identity, referring to herself as Marth. For Lucina’s down taunt, she puts on her butterfly mask, which is used to hide her identity. And finally, for Cloud up taunt, his quote in Japanese translates to “Not interested”, which is something that Cloud says often showing off his attitude. Hope this helps!
Some of Robin’s voice clips are references, like their iconic “time to tip the scales.” I don’t remember the voice clips from Robin’s other taunts, so I don’t know if there’s another reference.
Little Mac’s down taunt is more likely to be a reference to one of the taunts you can do to regen health after knocking down an opponent in Punch Out Wii
I'm gonna take a while guess and say that Villager's stick taunt isn't exactly a reference to a game per say. But rather, is a reference to kids in Japanese fiction/media tend to use a stick to poke something that they are curious about. This can be seen in the Manga/Anime Dr. Slump made by Akira Toriyama (Yes, the Dragon Ball author.) where the main character, Arale can be seen poking.... well pink poop on the ground with a stick.
i know the origin for MegaMan's side taunt! Now this fucked with my head a bit when i saw it but the pose he strikes doesn't originate from the MegaMan series but it's actually from a CGI promotional render for the game Shadow the Hedgehog, I don't know why MegaMan's side taunt is that pose but it definitely is
11:38 could be many things. That pose specifically is most notably done by Akuma as the start of his "Raging Demon", but also serves as one of Akuma's win poses in the CPS2 era of arcade games. Ryu also strikes this pose when you use the Raging Demon in the original Marvel vs. Capcom (there's a super that changes Ryu's moveset to Akuma's or Ken's moves from that era of gaming). It can also be a reference to Street Fighter 3
Rosalina and Luma's down taunt, while not a direct origin, likely stems from how Rosalina is the graceful princess of the trio. Daisy's the tomboy, Rosalina's the graceful one, and Peach... Well, Peach is however the writer wants her to be, but she's generally painted as a good medium. She's usually graceful and ladylike, but isn't above getting dirty. And then there's Smash where Peach is portrayed as being off in her own world.
You missed the explanation on what Cloud says in his up taunt, "Not interested" seems to be a recurring line of his but I wanna know when he says it and what for
In smash 4, Mac's side taunt is a reference to when you press 1 and 2 to recover some health in Punch Out for the Wii, since he does a similar animation
12:50 Bayonetta's quote in her up taunt is actually a reference to the creator of the Bayonetta series, Hideki Kamiya, specifically how he sometimes tells people he finds annoying on twitter to "ask their mom" before blocking them
Simple @@pootonz5810, when a game is text only you can interpret the way you should spell certain words until confirmed. When a game is voice acted however there is no ifs, ands or buts about how it should be pronounced. I give IGN and The Gamer shit for how they mispronounce stuff and it is equal here. TL;DR it's a case of "it sounds too wrong"
it's worth noting the way Cloud ends his up taunt with his sword landing on his shoulder hasn't been seen before really until smash, though Final fantasy VII Remake ends up using this version of the victory pose.
You forgot to mention Cloud's line during his up taunt where he says "kyoumi naine", which translates to "I'm not interested", which is a line that he's known for saying in the earlier parts of FF7.
(Not a criticism commment) For Mega Man's Up taunt, it is indeed that pose was on box art. For Robin's Up taunt, it was a reference for his reveal trailer back in Smash 4 For Little Mac's Down Taunt, I think it was from Super Punch out but I could be wrong, cant remember honestly
Robin’s “Prepare yourself” taunt is based on the reoccurring Critical line from Fire Emblem. Edit: Cloud’s says “Not Interested” in his up taunt, which is a common dialogue option in FF7.
The animations for robin are original, however their lines are their crit quotes. Dark pit is in a similar situation, but just lines he says during some of his boss fights.
9:20 I mean, you could've at least looked at Robin's taunt quotes, since some of those have origins in Awakening. For instance: up taunt uses the line "Let's tip the scales", which comes from Robin's most iconic critical hit/Skill line: "Time to tip the scales!"
Ryu's up taunt was actually around before Street Fighter 4. He had it in both the Street Fighter Alpha series, and the Marvel vs. Capcom series. I'll admit, currently I don't remember if he had it as a taunt, or as his intro animation, but I do remember he had it in those games. As for Ryu's "come on!" line during the taunt, that is definitely from Street Fighter 4.... except, that line was for his side taunt, and his up taunt line was "talk is cheap!". I don't know why they did that....
I think when Robin says "Time to tip the scales" it's a reference to how he gets the Shepherds out of some tough situations with his/her amazing tactical mind. I can't quite remember but I think they actually say it at one point in FE Awakening.
Greninja's taunt where he makes sprays of water come out of his hand is a very common party trick in japan and can be found several times in popular anime so that is most likely where it comes from since greninja is a ninja typically from Japan or because nintendo is a japanese company
8:30 It's "Taiko no Tatsujin", with a j. Just pointing it out for anyone curious to know more about that series, which I love, to search about it more easily.
I think cloud’s up taunt is more likely to be the pose he does during the part of the game where he dresses up as a shinra soldier during the welcoming march in junon, because his victory animation is already his victory pose (shocker) and the taunt shows him placing his sword on his shoulder instead of fully sheathing it, just like he does when originally showing off the pose. Though, He does do it with a gun instead of his buster sword in the game, but it still looks more similar to that in my opinion.
Ok 2 things There is no way villagers stick taunt is a reference to the amount of sticks in animal crossing. Why? Because he had that taunt in Smash 4 which was released in 2014. Sticks weren't a thing in Animal Crossing until last March. Second, how didn't you mention the origin of Bayo's "If you want to learn how to talk to a lady, ask your mum." Its a reference to how the creator of Bayonetta's favorite response to people on twitter is "Ask your mom"
Duck Hunt Duo’s Up-Taunt actually originates from Duck Hunt VS., Specifically the Duck, where the duck will scoff at the dog when you miss shooting a duck.
Bradaloop Nah he admits in a reply to a comment that he somehow forgot Lucina 😂 he’s probably going to make her the first person in the next video taint origins video for Smash ultimate tho
After Villager responds : Maybe up taunt is a reference to the villagers in the background of the Brawl stage. Down isn't a reference to New Horizons. Actually it could be a more of a reference to Desert Island Escape mini game in Amiibo festival during development times and all. The stick is weird ... Miis responds : Miis carry a lot of move from actual fighter, but I'm pretty sure that Wii party, Nintendo Land and almost all games where the Miis just are our playable characters gave inspiration. Right now I think again about Mii plaza for 3DS with a whole lot of mini-games in it About Dark Pit : He was revealed in the same trailer as Palutena's, just was extremely overlooked by the fact he appeared at the end of the trailer and had no splash screen Cloud's dowm taunt may come from an artwork of him or Zack
The only reason Daisy didn't get to Smash 4 just because she wasn't popular enough to be in. In fact, she wasn't taken too seriously during the WiiU era when Rosalina first appeared in Super Mario Galaxy. We were stuck with that Gardevoir knock-off, so we still were stuck with a Daisy colored Peach for Princess Daisy until Smash Ultimate.
Mac can do a few things when he has his meter full in Super Punch Out. He can go for a More powerful punch, or go for rapid punches kinda like his final smash and jab. Maybe that's the reference to his down taunt? But probably smash original
Something you missed on Rosalina's taunts- Her side taunt has the Luma nod it's head with confidence. If I recall correctly, this could be a reference to one of the animations the Black Luma has in Mario Galaxy 1, when it's speaking to Mario.
Pac Rainbow was a great music choice when you covered PAC-MAN! I wish we had some remixes or at least the original music from the Championship Edition games!
For Robin's up taunt in his game, he will say "Time to tip the scales" when he gets a critical hit but for some reason, in smash, they changed it to "Let's tip the scales"
@Aaronitmar Ryu's side was in Street Fighter Alpha 3(1998) and Third Strike (1999) when him and Ken are together they fist bump as a special intro. In Street Fighter Alpha (1995) Ryu ties his headband and moves his gloves buy in smash it is shortened. Ryu's down taunt could also be referencing Evil Ryu and Akuma when they slam their foot down and red aura is behind them which has been done since 1994's Super Street Fighter II Turbo
12:40 The Taunt comes from both female Corrin and Male Corrin when they win a battle, with Male Corrins Animation resembling more of the taunt in smash than Female Corrins Animation
Robin's taunts may be original, but the voice clips that play during them are references to Robin's critical quotes in Awakening. Most famous of which is: "Time to tip the scales!"
This may be a bit of a stretch but Mega Man's second taunt (the one where he turns around) reminds me a bit of the pose Akuma does in Street Fighter. I thought about this because Mega Man already has another Street Fighter reference in that he can perform the Shoryuken.

9:20 I mean, you could've at least looked at Robin's taunt quotes, since some of those have origins in Awakening. For instance: up taunt uses the line "Let's tip the scales", which comes from Robin's most iconic critical hit/Skill line: "Time to tip the scales!"
"Time to tip the scales" is a very famous Robin quote how did you miss that. One Google search could've solved that.
Calm down
You forgot Lucina....
Exactly 😞
She was too flat for him to notice XD.
Go see the melee video
Ryu's up taunt was actually around before Street Fighter 4. He had it in both the Street Fighter Alpha series, and the Marvel vs. Capcom series. I'll admit, currently I don't remember if he had it as a taunt, or as his intro animation, but I do remember he had it in those games. As for Ryu's "come on!" line during the taunt, that is definitely from Street Fighter 4.... except, that line was for his side taunt, and his up taunt line was "talk is cheap!". I don't know why they did that....
2:07 this is also one of Mega Man’s Victory Pose
Where is Lucina?
I think when Robin says "Time to tip the scales" it's a reference to how he gets the Shepherds out of some tough situations with his/her amazing tactical mind. I can't quite remember but I think they actually say it at one point in FE Awakening.
It's one of Robin's crit quotes. The rest are original to smash I believe
Nox Centurion They could also reflect the personalities of the two. But yeah the other two are smash original
Greninja's taunt where he makes sprays of water come out of his hand is a very common party trick in japan and can be found several times in popular anime so that is most likely where it comes from since greninja is a ninja typically from Japan or because nintendo is a japanese company
Ryu's second taunt also strikes me as similar to his unique intro animation vs Ken in SFIII, which is probably where Capcom got it for SFIV
8:30 It's "Taiko no Tatsujin", with a j.
Just pointing it out for anyone curious to know more about that series, which I love, to search about it more easily.
For 1:45 it may be based on Blues/Protoman artwork or concept art(just really feel like I’ve seen Blue/Proto in that exact pose)
I think cloud’s up taunt is more likely to be the pose he does during the part of the game where he dresses up as a shinra soldier during the welcoming march in junon, because his victory animation is already his victory pose (shocker) and the taunt shows him placing his sword on his shoulder instead of fully sheathing it, just like he does when originally showing off the pose. Though, He does do it with a gun instead of his buster sword in the game, but it still looks more similar to that in my opinion.
(1:00) But sticks were a thing in New Horizons (2020), and the stick taunt was in SSB4 (2014) ...?
Ok 2 things
There is no way villagers stick taunt is a reference to the amount of sticks in animal crossing. Why? Because he had that taunt in Smash 4 which was released in 2014. Sticks weren't a thing in Animal Crossing until last March.
Second, how didn't you mention the origin of Bayo's "If you want to learn how to talk to a lady, ask your mum." Its a reference to how the creator of Bayonetta's favorite response to people on twitter is "Ask your mom"
Duck Hunt Duo’s Up-Taunt actually originates from Duck Hunt VS., Specifically the Duck, where the duck will scoff at the dog when you miss shooting a duck.
Mr. Itmar, thank you for listening to my, and many others, requests. You are loved and appreciated, sir, on a religious level.
Ryu's down taunt can also reference Akuma when he does the same movement.
No it first started with ryu
He also has a reference when his turn was next in marvel vs capcom series
*I'M REALLY FEELING IT!*
Didn't you forget Lucina? I might missed her but I think I didn't...
She's too flat
Yeah they did
I think they might have covered them when they did Marth tho, although that's weird since they did dark pit here
Bradaloop Nah he admits in a reply to a comment that he somehow forgot Lucina 😂 he’s probably going to make her the first person in the next video taint origins video for Smash ultimate tho
After Villager responds : Maybe up taunt is a reference to the villagers in the background of the Brawl stage.
Down isn't a reference to New Horizons. Actually it could be a more of a reference to Desert Island Escape mini game in Amiibo festival during development times and all. The stick is weird ...
Miis responds : Miis carry a lot of move from actual fighter, but I'm pretty sure that Wii party, Nintendo Land and almost all games where the Miis just are our playable characters gave inspiration. Right now I think again about Mii plaza for 3DS with a whole lot of mini-games in it
About Dark Pit : He was revealed in the same trailer as Palutena's, just was extremely overlooked by the fact he appeared at the end of the trailer and had no splash screen
Cloud's dowm taunt may come from an artwork of him or Zack
The only reason Daisy didn't get to Smash 4 just because she wasn't popular enough to be in. In fact, she wasn't taken too seriously during the WiiU era when Rosalina first appeared in Super Mario Galaxy. We were stuck with that Gardevoir knock-off, so we still were stuck with a Daisy colored Peach for Princess Daisy until Smash Ultimate.
Hey, Aaronnitmar, how about the next Origin Series you do Stage Origins? :) That would be a cool idea.
Robin's taunts all pull from quotes they can say in battle. Usually references a victory line. The poses are unique though.
The video felt a little off until the ad was over, weird.
It felt weird seeing footage of the original Xenoblade again, I put 24 hours into the remake in just two days.
If robin said ti,e to tip the scales in his taunt, that’s from when he cries in awakening
Mac can do a few things when he has his meter full in Super Punch Out. He can go for a More powerful punch, or go for rapid punches kinda like his final smash and jab. Maybe that's the reference to his down taunt? But probably smash original
11:02 "And the duck is, for some reason, P I S S E D" got me dead
1:12 Villager debuted in Smash well before sticks and crafting were added to the series in New Horizons
Something you missed on Rosalina's taunts- Her side taunt has the Luma nod it's head with confidence. If I recall correctly, this could be a reference to one of the animations the Black Luma has in Mario Galaxy 1, when it's speaking to Mario.
Greninja's D-Taunt is from the chamber of X and Y which belongs to Siebold
Pac Rainbow was a great music choice when you covered PAC-MAN! I wish we had some remixes or at least the original music from the Championship Edition games!
For Robin's up taunt in his game, he will say "Time to tip the scales" when he gets a critical hit but for some reason, in smash, they changed it to "Let's tip the scales"
Female Robin says Time to tip the scales in both games. No clue why male Robin doesn’t
@Aaronitmar
Ryu's side was in Street Fighter Alpha 3(1998) and Third Strike (1999) when him and Ken are together they fist bump as a special intro.
In Street Fighter Alpha (1995) Ryu ties his headband and moves his gloves buy in smash it is shortened.
Ryu's down taunt could also be referencing Evil Ryu and Akuma when they slam their foot down and red aura is behind them which has been done since 1994's Super Street Fighter II Turbo
12:30 "and this is his battle start animation" *shows pre-crit animation* I know they're the same animation, but still.
12:40 The Taunt comes from both female Corrin and Male Corrin when they win a battle, with Male Corrins Animation resembling more of the taunt in smash than Female Corrins Animation
“Greninja’s UP TAUNT makes him strike an UPWARD pose.”
-Aaronitmar May 30, 2020.
Robin's taunts may be original, but the voice clips that play during them are references to Robin's critical quotes in Awakening. Most famous of which is: "Time to tip the scales!"
Well im glad you got Bayonetta's taunt orgins correct thats all that mattered in this video
Mega Man's side taunt references Proto Man and the pose he's often shown in. (I think)
This may be a bit of a stretch but Mega Man's second taunt (the one where he turns around) reminds me a bit of the pose Akuma does in Street Fighter. I thought about this because Mega Man already has another Street Fighter reference in that he can perform the Shoryuken.
I think it's supposed to be Proto Man's pose from Mega Man 9
Robin's up taunt references a quote from their critical hit animation in Fire Emblem Awakening where they say, "Time to tip the scales."
