    You, Adrestrian knights.
    How much weight... can you handle? Can you withstand the spirit of one who's life has passed? The weight of the burden of that death? Weak souls succumb quickly to a strong spirit... Strong ether is like a toxin to those whose bodies and minds are unfamiliar with such overwhelming power....
    Glen, just for a moment, grant me that power...!

    Honestly I love how rude Felix is, mostly because he's RIGHT. He calls out Dimitri for acting like a lunatic, he calls out Dorothea for being a gold-digger, he calls out his dad for acting like Glenn's death was a good thing, Ingrid on being obsessed with knighthood and being bossy, etc. It's kind of refreshing when most of the other 3H characters are so cheery.
    Also he's hot. XD

      @saucinreggie7900 4 роки тому +133

      I wouldn't say he's right though, he just has a different way of thinking than his fellow students. Seteth's support lets him realize that he will hate everyone if he keeps down the path he's going and even ingrid's A support has her telling him she will keep her ideals. Even Rodrigue isn't really in the wrong because he never thought Glenn's death was good, more so that if he survived through that Glenn himself would not be able to live with himself. Was he wrong for saying that to Felix, yep, but is he wrong for believing his son's death wasn't in vain, no.

      Honestly, felix really reminds me of myself. Even if he is more sane than my poor brain. I do honestly agree that chivarly makes people think that when they die, they will be worshipped. And basically makes death more interesting than living. What will you do after your death ? You are just dead, a husk and a corpse. Why worship dead bodies like flies do ? Sorry for that tangent, but i do resonate with him alot. Being called a jerk for just saying things straight and not caring for others feelings, but i do agree that it can make people hate you.

    Bad person, great character. I think Three Houses did a good job at creating these characters. Sometimes characters don't have to be a good person to be an interesting character. Felix also gives no shits towards Dimitri's dark side post-timeskip, he shows a lack of sympathy for him which is different from many other character in the route. He works very well in Blue Lions since most of the characters in Blue Lions harp on about Chivalry and Honor, something that Felix feels strongly about. I feel that this creates an interesting dynamic.
    Also fun fact, Felix was the character to predict Jeritza's betrayal first.
    Edit: Since Mangs had different thoughts than me, I'd like to clarify this is my opinion of the character.

Felix is probably among the easier units to recruit because most Byleth will use swords even in a non sword based class.

    I have a speculation: Fraldarius and Daphnel were swapped in the VW final map. It shows Fraldarius as a Falcon Knight and Daphnel as a Holy Knight, where I think it should have been the other way around.
    Point 1: Rodrigue is a Holy Knight and Ingrid (most commonly) becomes a Falcon Knight, so it would make sense for the Elites to reflect that.
    Point 2: Fraldarius is shown to be a woman because she's a Falcon Knight, a female-only class. But "-us" is a masculine suffix in Latin. (Yes, there is Samus, but keep in mind that we were originally meant to believe that she was a man.)
    Point 3: Falcon Knights get the Lancefaire skill, so wouldn't it make sense for it to have a lance relic? Holy Knights don't get a faire skill other than light magic, which isn't an item, so it would make sense for it to get a non-weapon relic. Besides, Aegis in the Greek myths it's based on, is a _holy_ shield, so it would make sense on a _Holy_ Knight.

    Despite his "edgy" interactions he does care for his friends and family. Such as his slight hesitation to strike down Ingrid in CF and his small greivance over his father in AM.
    And he even gets his comeuppance. In any route not AM he dies alone most of the time in his non paired endings. Sylvain and Felix non AM did hit a little ngl.

    A couple of things of note in this video, because there where a few mistakes:
    Felix is, besides for good ol Sylvain, the easiest unit to recruit without the B rank requirement. If you can reach him to C+, his requirements will only need C+ Support ~Yes, that is a not well-known thing for supports, Byleth supports reach C+~ in Swords, and 12 speed. At B rank, I'm pretty sure it's guaranteed due to the requirements being equal or lower to Byleth's bases. D+ Swords, 6 Speed.

    Felix is a really interesting character. I wish more people would realize how truly unhealthy his relationship with Dimitri though. Its an interesting dynamic, but an extremely toxic one as well. Personally though i feel Felix is justified in being upset, and even disgusted by dimitri, i feel that his constant degredation of him makes him just as much an enabler as dedue, ingrid and others passiveness. Felix grows a lot in azure moon, and i appreciate he way most of his supports progress too. (His supports with seteth, sylvain, and ashe are some of my favorites in the game) Crimson flower Felix is also fantastic, just extremely heartbreakingly ironic in his arc there.

      @joegreen3802 4 роки тому +7

      In terms of his relationship with Dimitri, I do believe Felix is right for calling Dimitri out, but I do disagree with several things.
      Mainly, Felix claims that he suffered loss as well, and I won't deny he did, but at the same time, I don't think he fully understood what Dimitri went through. Felix just lost his brother and was told of it. Dimitri lost almost his entire family and saw most of it happen before him. That is a hell of a lot more damaging than just hearing about it. Combine that with survivors guilt and it's no surprise Dimitri lost it. I am not saying that Dimitri was right in his actions in part 2 for the record. But I do agree with you that him just dismissing that Dimitri is a loss cause did not help any better than his father trying to be a yes man of sorts.

      @@joegreen3802 while trauma isnt always comparable, i agree-Dimitri has been through so damn much, and with little guidance as well. Felix is from his own understandable trauma, but I think his inability to even try to understand Dimitri is indicitave of one of Felix's biggest flaws--his inability to take other perspectives. What makes Felix's situation so sad is that he and Rodrigue cope with Glenn's death so differently--I tend to cope with things more like Rodrigue, so playing through I was always a bit more sympathetic to him. Felix is so singlemindedly dedicated to his ideals that he is often not only dismissive but flat out disrespectful of others. Its one of tge reasons i love his supports with Seteth so much. Felix and Rodrigue are too strong in their own beliefs to consider eachothers perspectives, and tragically even when Rodrigue tries to reach out, Felix is too closed off to respond, until its too late. Its a nice echo of the game, but especially Azure Moon's overarching themes--clashing viewpoints, and whether characters choose to build bridges, or burn them.

    Felix is terrified of death and being alone, hence why he gets so irritable when people talk about death as being nothing to worry about.
    You can see that with how he scolds Sylvain when he puts himself in harms way to defend Felix. He gets super angry at him but admits he doesn't want to lose his bestie.
    He's got a nice side too. He does chew our Ashe and Mercie initially but later helps them to grow. He likely wants Ashe to avoid walking into the same path his brother did as Ashe is still very young.
    I like his clashes with Dimitiri post Redemption, he's almost mentoring him and reminding him to stay on the path he wants to be on. Felix reminds Dimitri to hate that brutal side of him because its not who he really is

He keeps people away so he doesnt risk losing people again. I love the fact that you must work against his personal skill for him to be truly optimal.

    Idk about calling him a tsundere beyond surface level(a metric by which edgelord works pretty much just as well). A tsundere is usually in complete denial about their feelings and that leads them to sometimes display appreciation and anger in close succession. Felix doesn't really do that.
    Also, a couple clarifications on his crest; it does get influenced by crits and thus does add 15 damage to them(that's visible in this very video:o), but it can only ever activate with normal attacks, so it doesn't work with hunter's volley at all.

    Felix is better than the vast majority of tsunderes (including Severa) because when he's cold he actually says what he believes and means.
    He's not saying things that are counterproductive to his character (I like you but I'm embarrassed to show it so I'm hurting you instead). He's not extremely immature and exhausting like most tsunderes (which is what leads to the hot and cold dynamic). In other words, he's honest, which is the opposite of a tsundere trait.
    I think it's unfair to simply call him a tsundere and leave it at that. There are very few tsunderes that actually act like this, one of the only ones that come close to mind are Rita from Tales of Vesperia.

The "Swordmaster" and "Mortal Savant" classes share the same "sword wielding" stance.

    In the final battle with Hegemon Edelgard, there are two generals. A sword master and a warlock. These both match Felix and Annette. If you hack into the system and remove Felix and Annette from your roster, you will see them as enemies in that battle. They even have dialogue showing that they chose to betray Dimitri.
    Annette didn’t want to betray her uncle and Felix hated Dimitri.
    The dialogue shows that the developers had deeply thought about making Felix and Annette enemies. I thought that would be kinda interesting for the plot line.

    Felix is largely falls into that love-him-or-hate-him category. Most of it comes from the fact that, while he often does mean well, he SUCKS at making a point without sounding like a jerk. While this isn't necessarily bad, Mangs is not wrong about his early Supports having him sound like a someone being a jerk just for the sake of being a jerk.
    -
    That part aside, I really do love what Felix's character brings to the dynamic in the Blue Lions. He's more often than not right in the criticisms he makes of others (Dimitri and Dorothea being 2 solid examples) and a lot of his standoffish tendencies stem from the fact that most of his classmates lean heavily towards chivalric ideals which he finds aggrivating to say the least. Honestly, if they just dialed back some of his early jerkiness, he could have gotten 3 or 4 stars instead of 2 for Character.

    A lot of people don't mention the interaction between Felix and Catherine's personal skills and getting hit by an enemy gambit.
    Getting hit by an enemy gambit unequips your battalion temporarily, so you can't gambit back and you ALSO lose the stat bonuses provided by them.
    This means Felix and Catherine are always stronger than usual enemy phase units because even when they get hit by a gambit, they don't lose all of their survivability (Felix can still hit hard and one-shot, especially if he has vantage, and Catherine might even have more defense without a battalion than she does with her battalion).

    Felix is basically a lot like Malik from the first Assassin’s Creed game. Like Felix, Malik is basically the rival esc character to the main character Altair as he calls him out for his Dickish behavior, which he is right as Altair basically violated the first tenet of their Creed by killing an innocent old man inside Solomon’s Temple. Altair also broke the second tenet of their Creed by drawing attention to himself before he struck. It was Altair basically defiling the third and final tenet of their Creed by exposing himself as an assassin to their enemy, a Templar named Robert De Sable. It was Altair’s selfish actions inside the temple that got Malik’s younger brother Kadar killed and he lost the use of his left arm to the point it had to be amputated. This caused Malik to be demoted from a master assassin to a desk job as a Rafiq in the Assassin’s Bureau In Jerusalem. He spends most of his time calling out Altair for being selfish, arrogant and idiotic. It was only before Majd Addin’s funeral that Altair apologized for getting Kadar killed and Malik losing his left arm. Although Malik rejects the apology, he too admits that he was a bit jealous of Altair. After he found out that their master Al Mualim was just using them so they can deliver the Holy Land to him, Malik decided to help Altair stop Al Mualim from enslaving everyone in the Castle of Masyaf with the apple of Eden. But just like Felix, Malik never got a happy ending. As Felix lost his wife Ingrid due to an uprising as well as the use of his sword arm, Malik was framed for the death of Altair’s second son by Abbas, a fellow assassin, and was later executed for such a crime.

    Felix is such an interesting character to me and it's mostly because of his friendship and connections with people in the Blue Lions. His estranged and how the Faerghus 4 are trying so hard to stick together ensures that I'll always have a soft spot for him. His supports with Dimitri, Sylvain and Dedue are super nice though his paired ending with Sylvain in any route besides BL is super sad and you can tell how much the war hurts and challenges him more than a lot of characters through his monastery convos. I really think Felix and Mercedes are served really well by having so much of their characters wrapped up in major plot details like the Tragedy of Duscar and Jeritza. The writers did a really good job linking those things into the story and have that build the character's personalities and struggles instead of having the characters build up the events, if that makes any sense. Good job writing team.

He doesn't hate Dedue but he hates the blind chivalry he represents and his blind loyalty to someone he sees as someone you shouldn't really have in charge of a country. Maybe interesting is a better word,. I honestly didn't mind Felix yelling at either Dimitri and Dedue because regardless of how much I love them they really do need a reality check on their problematic and enabling behaviors, something I think if Felix were a little more mature he'd be great at, which we see with his final support with Dimitri showing how much he's growing into the role already.
