Pneuma and Logos being inside N Matthew/Noah's weapons all along in 3 was such a cool twist and I love how it finally gives an explanation for why Noah gets monado arts when unsheathing lucky 7
@@aiox82 We dont explicitly see the crystal like what happened with Matthews gauntlets. However when A says Rex and Shulk are breaking some rules Rex says that "THEY" wouldnt hesitate. The camera then pans to N's blade sheath and then to Matthews right gauntlet. (The one that had Pneuma's core crystal) The logical inference is that like the dynamic they had in 2 (Pneuma being a power to protect or positive and Logos being the power to destroy or negative) N was in possession of logos for basically the whole time due to his desire to destroy Z and mobious.
@@aiox82 Most likely the same reason Mio and Na'el have diamond shaped flesh-eater cores. Assuming the (all but outright stated but still technically speculation) theory that Mio is Rex and Nia's daughter it would be a hereditary trait.

The Lucky Seven (Noah and N's swords) are made of Origin Metal which is Ontos power. N's sheathe was made with Logos core crystal most likely, Matthew's gloves with Pneuma's. The Glove's eventually got passed to Noah as a Sword (somehow) which he used to sheathe the Lucky Seven Riku gave him. Once N and Noah fused/united the entire Trinity Processor's powers were with Noah explaining how he destroyed Z and Moebius. N failed because he only had Logos power. To summarize using knowledge from Xenogears and Saga as well basically N was an imperfect contact with the Conduit (Cause he only had Logos) same with Matthew (Only Pneuma). Noah became a perfect contact (Because he wound up with all 3 of the trinity processor's who were the ones who made contact with the conduit) thus he was able to use it's power.
Absolutely. This man deserves all the praise. As well as the whole unbelievable talented team behind the Xenoblade Project that made it possible for us fans to experience this amazing larger-than-life journey
@@rudeondude21 Yeah, I would say the magnum opus at this point is still Xenogears (storywise). Though with how Future Redeemed ended, perhaps there'll be more to say about that in the future.
Rex is like "Here's to old Klaus, he just keeps on giving!" oh my god even he is done with Klaus's bullshit. Yes it's insane how many problems this one scientist caused even after he died in both fucking timelines!!!!
So that's reason why Noah and N need to return their lucky sevens back to the sheath before unleashing some attack. They need to get power supply from core of Pneuma / Malos. Before DLC. I thougt they need some preparation to focus by doing some stance, i not suspecting the sheath is actually the main source 😅
I just noticed N's sheathe has the same Powers as Malos too. Remember in the battle outside Agnus prision? N used his sheath to block all the attacs from oroboros and whenever oroboros hitt the sheath they disintograte. It is the same power that Malos has. He culd disintigrate enything he tutched.
i only just realized this but.. where's malos' core crystal in xenoblade 3???? is his crystal like... the entire reason that "the sword of the end" exists????
@@subtotalrouge687 Rex's Swords are replicas or perhabs shells of their former selfs. Its unclear how or why but somehow after the merge of the worlds Pheuma lost her body and ended up in the fist of the end or Pyra ended up in Glimmer and Mithra in the fist.
@@Justforvisit Also the fact that N's sheath gave Matthew's fists power just like how Malos used Pyra's core Crystal to power himself up. God this series is so good
Matthew is probably the strongest Ouroboros because he can interlink with five people including Shulk (previously a god) and Rex (Master Drive who can drive all blades) and Na'el, Glimmer, Nikol Man's too powerful
so long as they bring back the original actors and just give them better direction I'd be fine with that, otherwise don't bother cos I love Rex's accent too much also a lot of the dialogue is perfectly fine, it's just at key moments it isn't so good (JOOOIN MEEEE and other shouts not being particularly good lol)
You know, as much as Xenoblade Chronicles 2 does wrong in my opinion (honestly, it's my least favorite of the three, if you haven't noticed yet), from 5:20 and onwards, the very badly synced mouth movement of Rex and his rather weak delivery of his lines there, but apart from that, what it does AMAZINGLY right here is the score going so damn stellar that as soon as Pyra's & Mythra's speech starts and the music rises and rises and rises in beauty and glory and triumphantness.......THAT always manages to bring a tear to my eye, no matter how often I've already seen this scene. So, the programming here might be something to shrug off, but oh my god, the music and the directing of the scenes here, with the music reaching its absolute peak just right in the moment where Aion is shown for the very first time and Pyra & Mythra stating that this is their true, whole being.......DAMN, THAT is some fantastic directing of the scene / camera angles going along in perfect sync with the masterfully crafted composition! "The Tomorrow With You" on it's own already is such a powerful piece of music, but here.....DAMN, amped up by 1000 through this scene!
Xenoblade Chronicle 2's voice direction... theres honestly never been a greater travesty. Doesn't help just how over the top the expressions and animations are, and how they weren't changed on a per-dub basis.
@@asprinjuice8877 They really aren't, I agree. The voices are relatively natural, but the animation basically ruins the feel of it. XC3 toned down the facial and body animations, making it far easier for the lip movements to match.
It is such a shame too morag, zeeke, nia, tora and their blades did such a good Job too. Rex is allright when he just talks, but when shitt goes crazy and over the top, his voice actor falls flatt and that is such a shame. The guy who voiced rex shuld have been given much better voice direction ider that or his voicedirector shuld have been replaced. Ider that or sadly, mabe they shuld just have hired another actor fore rex
@Slobertooth 13 Yeah, Rex's screams and when he actually needs to shout fall flat. They could have hired another but in the end it needed better direction. There were even moments with Pyra and Mythra where they sounded very off and inappropriate for the situation.
Xenoblade 3 is just: we interrupt your cool moment of the MC getting a cool sword with N getting his ass kicked by his Past Self and told to stop being an emo boy
2s english dub has always been pretty spotty. even bad in some cases ie pyra, mythra, and rex sometimes sounding like they aren't even aware of what kind of character they're playing. 3 has an amazing ENG main cast though. that scene where noah tells N he's full of shit is always gonna be awesome imo.
Man... Animators lost oportunity 3 years ago about animating the xenoblade series... it would expand more the merchandizing than now... "Tales of..." got anime in many oportunities. Some titles of Final fantasy too. This franchise is rich, they lost the moment, would be a great game-based anime. Xenoblade chronicles became a "thing", right? or we arent bigger fandom group?
for this to happnd they need to remake Xenogears first than Xenosaga as the two games are far Superior in there wrihting even with Xenogears vut third act
God Rex's voice actor wasn't able to see the expresions and mouth movements he had to copy for his performace didn't he? 🙁 I couldn't play Xenoblade 2 in english because of him, the dub director did him dirty and even if its sad for him im glad that he got a new voice actor for Xenoblade 3.
Though I really would have liked to hear an older Al Weaver voicing Rex again, would have been interesting. Don't know if he still even does video game voice acting though.
The voice direction for 2 was apparently quite lacking, I think Skye Bennet was the one who mentioned it? I wouldn't be surprised at all if he either didn't get to see it, or only had a take or two to match it.
@@AlexxxMYLSince2013 2 was also more rushed then 1 and 3, I wouldn't be surprised if that's why less time went into localisation. It's a real shame. I'm also conflicted on Rex's new voice. On one hand I really like the new actor, and think he did a fantastic job sounding like a more world weary Rex. On the other, I would really have loved to see Al get another shot at it with better voice direction, since there are scenes in 2 that show that he can be absolutly fantastic as well.
Why has it always felt that the voice acting on xenoblade 2 was god awful? Was it the voice sync or lack of it to begin with? Am i the only one who thinks this way?
I unironically think everytime Glimmer speaks in 3 she ruins the scene, characters literally do the exact same things as in other language though she has to sound mean as hell even as Pyra in 2
I think its not the voice acting, but the over the top animations absolutely ruin it for me. Like when rex says "Join me" I don't mind the voice acting, but the animation of his mouth looks unnatural and weird and doesn't match.
