Is no one pointing out how Midori is basically Japanese Dora? her paralogue has her going to look for something while exploring in the forest and preventing the boss from swiping something of value
I prefer Velouria over Selkie (And I'm playing Birthright). Velouria's design is Little Red Riding Hood AND the Big Bad Wolf in ONE PACKAGE! THAT IS AWESOME!!
Personally, I more relate to Velouria, and I like both of them, but I prefer Selkie. She’s just so innocent and outgoing that I can’t help but love her.
I prefer Velouria because a friend of mine said that she kinda acts like she could be an Aspie. (I like characters like that for various reasons I won't go into) plus her design is adorable. I played birthright too though so I never used her
If they decide to bring back child units in the next game, I think they should make it so that you play as them in a separate campaign. Imagine you beat the game as their parents, then you have the option to carry over the data to a new story that takes place years after the first game, where you play as the child units that inherit skills, stats, classes, ect. from their parents. However, the gameplay would also be more difficult, similar to Conquest, so that you have to carefully plan what traits to pass on.
I turned her into a Shield baby. That high 35 base skill+Hosidan Unity really just lets her tank with Pavise and Aegis. I also gave her Aether so she was proc'ing it at least once when she uses brave sword. If i _REALLY_ need her to tank, i swap out Aether with Armored Blow and give her renewal. She's my favorite unit and my best unit.
Zanniia Ikr? Like in my first two playthroughs soleil was an offensive beast albeit fragile. Like forest she's really good when you know who she should and shouldn't be fighting.
I personally LOVE Kiragi as a character. I call him ham and cheese since his voice actor plays him so hamily and the character is just straight cheese. Love the kid. Especially when he screams "YAAAAAY" after brutally killing someone xD
I love Kiragi as well. He's my precious baby whom I love very much. And he's just so damn adorable! And there is this story I'm reading, well two stories to be exact, where Morgan and Kiragi are brothers. Yes, it sounds strange, I know but it's a crossover. A cool crossover that ships Takumi and female Robin. And it just works! Why can't we have a crossover other than Heroes, that let's us do something like that for real. Well, at least we can us our imagination to do stuff like that. And because of these stories I found randomly while browsing, I now really ship female Robin with Takumi. They are so cute together and Robin is a way better character then Corrin anyway. Kiragi is a precious cinnamon roll, that needs to be protected at all costs.
Out of the Awakening children clones, the only one I'm fine with is Asugi, since he seems the most different from his Awakening self, because of his expectations on how to be the next Saizo.The others can leave for all I care.
True. But honestly I hated Asugi's changed personality. Aside from his obvious love for candy, Gaius was still lovable because of how chill and laid back he was. I couldn't help but go "ayyyy it's the candy bro!" whenever he was on screen. Asugi and his rebellious teen attitude on the other hand made me go "Oh look it's that fuckboy who can't shut up about candy". But you know... that's just me.
+Justplay1611 - I always liked all 3, Tharja not so much, but her serious moments (EG her supports with Nowi) make me respect her a bit more, so I wasn't bothered by the cloning. However, I think Caeldori should've had Mercenary as her Heart Seal reclass and Rhajat with Dark Mage. Asugi could have Samurai if he doesn't already, given Gaius getting Myrmidon I believe. If they're gonna clone the characters they might as well go all the way.
I saw those three as "less experience" version of their Awakening counterparts. I mean, Asugi and Caeldori clearly look like they haven't seen real shit in their lives like Gaius or Cordelia have or their traumas. Rhajat IMO is ALMOST the same thing except that her obsession with the Avatar is less prominent than Tharja and since she's a child unit you tend to forget easily about it (at least I did).
DJ Rarity I agree I mean while I did notice the similarities of the three awakening rip offs I was ok with Asugi because at least he had some kind of character arc.
Aw, no Dwyer? I originally hated his character but his supports are just plain adorable. Also in my playthrough he was great as a strategist and he could do surprisingly good magic damage.
I couldn't bring myself to hate Corrin, because well, that's ME. I don't want to hate me, I like me, me is my fren. Also, I will now see Avel as Donkey from now on.
Hm, I prefer to see Corrin as their own seperate character rather than an avatar. And tbh, they're kind of bland and a little bit of a Mary Sue. I know I'm probably in the minority though. I personally really ship Corrin and Silas :)
In my experience Kana is one of the worse units in the game. The Yato is Corrin's strongest point and no matter who I marry Kana never really excels. Cute, but I definitely preferred Morgan. ..Also, Kiragi's personality was leagues better than Kana's (or maybe I just preferred his VA)
it wasn't IS intention, that the children wielding the weapons of the Parents anyway. if you want to see them wearing the yatos, brynhildr ect., buy the dlc and see the children fighting a different path of revelation
Great list! Shigure is my personal favourite though since he’s kind, more open than his mother, surprisingly adorable at times, and is a great main character in Heirs of Fate. And fun fact, I have a younger Sophie
I always thought that mitama's portrait looked odd, like it was drawn in a higher resolution then everyone else's portrait, and looks odd when they're all the same size
Karsten Ngai-Natsuhara Not to mention, she has her hand to break her pen/brush when she's angry, but no one (not even the ones with a staff or whatever) has that portrait edit
I got the paralogue for Shiro at chapter 27 for Revelations. I couldn't get Shiro because his dumb ass kept attacking a level 20 hero and kept killing himself. As such, I can't get Shiro. Which I call bullshit on.
Jacob Tietjen oh, sorry. In your next playthrough, marry Ryoma before chapter 19 (in Revelations this means you must marry him IMMEDIATELY after you get him. Just grind supports through scouting missions or the free Awakening DLC. This means the enemies won't be promoted, and Shiro will survive for enough turns for you to reach him.
The free Awakening DLC was the most cancerous map whenever you played Lunatic. Freaking Master Ninjas with both Poison strike and Savage Blow AND SWAP. 5 god damn ninja hits each with stacking def/res debuffs meant it was so difficult to clear once you got to the point of promoted units in the story.
Great list! Here are my favorite children in Fates (excluding Kana).10-Midori. Interesting personality, and in my Birthright and Conquest files, I made her a Princess via Hinoka and Camilla respectively. 9- Percy. Adorable justice child. Enough said.8- Rhajat. Unlike most, I actually prefer the Awakening Clones over the originals. That being said I like Rhajat the best though. And that pink hair from Sakura though.7- Ophelia. I like her personality, I really do. And she's a Princess on Conquest (via Elise) and the daughter of a kunoichi on Revelations (via Kagero)6- Hisame. Read his supports with Ophelia, Rhajat, Caeldori, and M!Avatar or F!Avatar. 5- Dwyer. He has some of the best deadpan humor in the game. 4- Kiragi. He's like a combination of Henry and Cynthia. I especially like his supports with his father.3- Forrest. He is one of the people in this game I half feel sorry for (considering what happens in his paralogue and offscreen in some of his supports, and half praise because of how kind and strong willed he is.2- Shigure. He may look like a male Azura on the outside, but considering how much more social he is than his mother, and his aptitude in paintings, I found him to be quite enjoyable, and different from the rest of the cast enough to have very interesting interactions with other children and the Avatar. 1- Siegbert. The crown is certainly a heavy burden, and I feel like Siegbert captures this even more than his father does, constantly fretting over if he's worthy to rule over Nohr, and his attempts to try to understand other cultures different from his own. I especially like his conversations with both avatars, (since it's the same for both genders apart from the fact that F!Avatar gets an S.)Caeldori, and Velouria.
My Soleil was a BEAST in my lunatic conquest since I managed to marry Laslow with Femu with +skill and merc and I gave her my secret books and got her hoshidan unity and quioxic with another soleil I had and I got her Sol, Luna and Aether and she was one of my best units in the game (especialy in chapter 26).
I made Kana to be a tank in birthright, in conquest a glass cannon, and a mixture of both in Revelations. Love how you're able to pull this off thanks to the multiple stories. Allows me to explore each avenue I can possibly take her in.
Great list Crash. My favorite child unit is Ignatius. I can actually relate to him in about 90% of his personality (just not the fear of bugs). I made mine into a berserker with wary fighter, aether, deathblow and a brave axe and paired him up with the Corrin and he cant be stopped.
This might bring me hate but I like Rhajat eww okay to be honest I hated her because the localization team ruined her for me. JP version of her, Shara is much better because they actually explained why she's identical to Tharja and her supports with the Female avatar is just cute.
Schrödinger's cat Sophie was pretty cool as well ^-^ I only ever use her on Birthright though. Forrest and Nina were without a doubt made for each other and their conversations were so cute and entertaining. I could happily enjoy a stand alone game starring just those two. Rhajat of course appeals to my love for the goth babe archetype. She was an awesome character to boot, not just hentai fodder.
I have a theory that the "uninspired" children are actually there fates counterparts but taken back in time and placed in the world of Awakening. Kinda like how some of the child characters from Awakening where taken to Noir as main units.
another great video as always of course I don't 100 percent agree but like you said it's your opinion keep up the good work my friend BLAZING KNIGHT your the best at what you do hands down
when you said kana and supports: I feel so bad for male kana the boy gets friend zoned in his s supports, while female version isnt determined exactly lol.
Asugi hardly feels like a Gaius clone. Sure, they both like candy, but what else really? Asugi has the whole "Saizo" thing going on, plus he is a ninja not a theif. The other two are carbon copies, but I don't really care. Everyone makes such a huge fuss about it, they don't realize that even without those 3 characters Fates still has almost double the children of Awakening.
I reclassed a Hinoka!Forrest to a Grandmaster and he literally wrecked so much face it was incredible. I find that most of the 'subpar' kids are great with proper reclassing though
fun fact about shiro: potential spoiler for anyone who has not seen fate stay night UBW he has the same english voice actor, name, and weapon type (if you use swordmaster, especially with hagakure blade equipped) as archer
Awesome video! The ouran hshc reference was amazing! Also it took me three blazing sword playthroughs to realize that Lucius was a guy so I don't blame you. The reasons for liking each character were also well thought out. Both selkie and velouria were godlike in my playthroughs. I also like Dwyer since he reminds me of L from death note. (It's the hair!) Forrest was another favourite of mine since he was a nuclear warhead the time I married Leo. Finally I love Solei because of her innocent and carefree attitude, her confession quote is adorable and she was a pretty decent unit. I liked how she didn't care what others thought of her.
Even though I didn't watch Deathnote, Dwyer also reminded me of L. And he's just so damn lazy. (And I love his voice. It suits him really well.) I think my favorite Children are Shigure, Kisaragi and Ophelia. But my favorite Character from Fates entirely is Takumi. He may be not Soren, but I still love him.
Not gonna lie, I kinda squeed when i saw my comment show up at the beginning X3 But still, a great list as always. This is how I rank my favorite child units: 1. Forrest 2. Shigure 3. Siegbert4. Hisame (kid grew on me a lot)5. Kana 6. Dwyer 7. Shiro8. Ophelia 9. Caeldori10. Mitama
because hes bland boring and dumb. Compare him to most lords and he fucking sucks. Like many of them develop and evolve over the course of the game and have human aspects to them. Corin is this marry sue blander than bread whos only personality traits are...naive and...fuck thats it isnt it.
+MegamanvolnutX corrin has more to their personality than just naivety, which is justified by the way, but I will agree that he isn't as interesting as most other lords, he isn't a bland character
Yeah, I mean Roy, Ephraim, Leif (if thats how you spell it) and even Hector on some level are more bland, and while a good chunk are great units, not all are the best characters
Well the way they did it in Awakening and Fates could be considered dumb (I for one don't have a Problem with it since, well it's all Fiction anyway) But when it comes to Realism yeah not the right way to go about it I suppose... What they could do for next time (maybe?...) Instead of Time travel and time warping dimensions, they could well do a Time jump cut? For example all characters are aged around 20 to 40 or so then you are at chapter 20 where there will be a time of peace for 15 to 20 years or so and during that Time these Kids could normally grow up! You could even give the Parent characters certain handicaps or Bonuses, for example Character A got a wound on his leg during the 20th chapter, then his speed got a little reduced and Character B continued training during this Time of Peace and got Stronger because of it? Ofcourse these characters will need a makeover since well...... They got OLDERRRRRR!!! Well this is just an Idea, it all depends on Intelligent Systems what they'll do with the next Game!
Pretty much what they did back in the mid 90's in Japan with Genealogy of the Holy War. I do agree that they should do something similar there ( also if we get a third time travel thing it'd be redundant.)
We can only hope that they will draw some inspiration from their Roots! Then again Storywise It'd be hard to come up with a new Story and make it feel new I suppose... Welp good luck to Intelligent Systems for their new FE Games!
I love this list!!! This is the first list of yours where I agree with 100%! Every child unit you listed is amazing and I love how Midori is no 1, my daughter is great! Yes the reason for these kids existing is a load of BS and my most hated aspect of Fates, but when a child's character is good they are REALLY good. Great list!
Well i'm certainly glad you liked it, it's not often someone's opinion match the same as mine, but yes I agree, when a child is a good character, they're a VERY good character!
BLAZINGKNIGHT Good good. Midori came as a genuine surprise at no 1. By the time you finished listing the honourable mentions I doubted that Midori would appear as she was the last child character I really liked that you hadn't listed yet. But then ta-dah! Midoir at no 1. You got full marks across the board from me. It definitely helped that you gave Velouria and Selkie the same spot. Shiro is the best bro and Ophelia and Nina are my spirit animals XD
I agree with you about Kana and Midori being the most adorable things ever. But somehow, someway, my two favorite child units were your honorable mentions! How does that happen?!
for me personally my favorite is between either Siegbert or Sophie, I like mounted units quite a bit and cause of the way I do supports having Siegbert pick up Hinoka's classes is neat also Sophie is neat with her abilities.
+BLAZINGKNIGHT Music as the next video. Nice, and good luck, because without a doubt someone will arrive, and say " Blank shouldn't be here, blank should" and stuff like that, music being very subversive and all
I have no real favorite child character in Fates and didn't really use them. Oh well, I did enjoy the list however. (Though I do have a soft spot for Sophie.)
Some of my favorites are Asugi: I already really liked Gaius, and when I found out he would be my son in Fates, it was awesome. His supports with Saizo are pretty interesting and really "sweet" at the end. Plus he destroys in the battlefield, probably from having my Avatar as his mother. Kana: He is so freaking adorable! Ophelia: LUMINARY UPPERCUT! My granddaughter is great Selkie: An adorable little ball of energy and I like her design. Forrest: I quite like his design and I can relate to his habit on rambling on this he's passionate about. Also he's just a nice guy. Shigure: He's a very similar case to Forrest, being nice and just having a serene aura about him. His role in Hiers of Fate made me like him even more. And my favorite child unit is Soleil: She's just a great role model to me. She doesn't care what people think about her and is extremely optimistic. Also she is freaking adorable and is a beast on the battlefield from my experience. Great list! Did you do any child pairings? If so, which ones did you do?
I was very excited about having bisexual options in Fates, and Niles is definitely someone I'll consider marrying in my male run, but Rhajat kinda pissed me off. I kinda get it, what with her personality and all, but why couldn't they do something like how you consider Ophelia?
I think the purpose for the clone characters was this: It would be a familiar face for those who played awakening but it wouldn't but be suspicions if you haven't. So in a way I think it was meant as a joke because if you rearrange the letters in the names of Asugi, Rhajat, and Caeldori you will get the Gaius Tharja and Cordelia
Yeah Kana is a one note Character but I really like him. I also I like what a hard worker he is. In his support with his Father we found out what he does to help in the camp. He goes on patrol with Percy, hunting with Selkie and working on his teamwork with her and from Siegbert he learns how to work hard on himself. What a great kid.
I latest run of birthrights I used the Vanguard seal and forged a custom +5 Steel sword I named Ostmark for him. Spent a fortune and time making that bloody thing.
I love Europe. Fates is all but dead here in America, so it's nice to have a person still doing regular uploads. Well, that, the metric system, and the better spelling of armour.
You say armor is spelt better with a "U" after the "O", yet you fail to realize that the "U" breaks the own rules of the English language (Armor should read as arm-or, armour should be read as arm-our based off of the basic rules of english). How exactly is it better? Most American spellings of words are like that so our Launguage conforms to its own rulesm
***** Most of the skill threads I see were posted 3-5 months ago. It takes much longer to get an online match than you normally see. The only regular uploaders I'm seeing are Pheonixmaster1, Rasoli Plays, and BLAZINGKNIGHT. I even understand it; you get the game, play through the three routes, maybe play some of the DLC, mess around with the online mode until you realize that you're outmatched because you don't have 200+ hours to grind or 40 spare dollars for the necessary DLC, and move on to other games. It's a singular experience that only the most devoted players will stick with for more than a few months, and those few months are up in North America.
I paired Laslow with Camilla, and Soleil came out a BEAST. With the Axebreaker skill, stats inspired from one of the best tanks in the game, and an awesome character, I found Soleil to be a very good unit for me.
Perhaps I gave Camilla the wrong husband. Eh, Percy has slightly better accuracy than Arthur and can fly so I'm ok. Though Selena can't dish out or take hits at all and that was Laszlo's wife in my game.
It was a nice list to listen to as I just recently got into fire emblem UA-camrs. My 3 favorites are Dwyer, Forrest and Shigure despite me hating Azura. Sad to not see the coffee sloth Dwyer
Is no one pointing out how Midori is basically Japanese Dora? her paralogue has her going to look for something while exploring in the forest and preventing the boss from swiping something of value
.......holy shit.......
Joshua Rosario but also a better version of her at the same time.
and the boss is a fat derp who we dont take seriously just like swiper
I prefer Velouria over Selkie (And I'm playing Birthright). Velouria's design is Little Red Riding Hood AND the Big Bad Wolf in ONE PACKAGE! THAT IS AWESOME!!
Personally, I more relate to Velouria, and I like both of them, but I prefer Selkie. She’s just so innocent and outgoing that I can’t help but love her.
Hooded Roxas I didn't like Selkie's voice. She sounded like she had asthma instead of being an energetic genki girl.
I prefer Velouria because a friend of mine said that she kinda acts like she could be an Aspie. (I like characters like that for various reasons I won't go into) plus her design is adorable. I played birthright too though so I never used her
Yeah, she's one of my favorites based on design and concept alone.
Guide to Midori:
1. Make her a merchant
2. GET ALL THE MONEY
More like:
1. Make her a Master Ninja
2. KILL EVERY ENEMY IN SIGHT
More like GIVE HER REPLICATE AND KILL EVERYONE ON SIGHT
Midori is the fates online meta game!
Uncle Richard's Smoke Detector tbh I made midori a merchant without knowing anything about the game...
Best Choice I Ever Made!
I did that in Birthright
If they decide to bring back child units in the next game, I think they should make it so that you play as them in a separate campaign. Imagine you beat the game as their parents, then you have the option to carry over the data to a new story that takes place years after the first game, where you play as the child units that inherit skills, stats, classes, ect. from their parents.

FE4. It's been done right before, it can done right again!
Didn't the 4th game, Genealogy of the Holy War, kinda do that?
FE4 says Hi. also, I've been saying that since fates got announced, I want this as much as you do bud.
Sounds like we just remake Genealogy for the Switch.
Hey in the future no child units:(
"Soleil is not that strong in battle"
*looks down and watches her do over 90 damage with a critical Sol
I turned her into a Shield baby. That high 35 base skill+Hosidan Unity really just lets her tank with Pavise and Aegis.

I married Laslow and Charlotte. I then promoted her to bow knight. Gave her crescent bow, replicate and galeforce. The I Wrecked shit.
*Insert Soleil's fe h attack stat*
My soleil is a goddess she did 186 damage with a killing edge omg op as hell
Zanniia
Ikr? Like in my first two playthroughs soleil was an offensive beast albeit fragile.
Like forest she's really good when you know who she should and shouldn't be fighting.
"Pretty much a better version of Corrin".
That's not exactly a difficult feat to accomplish XD.
It certainly isn't -_-
Feet, huh? :P
BLAZINGKNIGHT I actually kinda like corrin because he/she actually tries his/her best to help others and make peace with anyone they can do so with.
I believe the word you're looking for there is 'feat', but... Close enough! Sounds the same.
@James Chan
Hey, everyone's entitled to their opinion. I don't mind the guy... Some of his quips are pretty okay. >.>
I personally LOVE Kiragi as a character. I call him ham and cheese since his voice actor plays him so hamily and the character is just straight cheese. Love the kid. Especially when he screams "YAAAAAY" after brutally killing someone xD
I love Kiragi as well. He's my precious baby whom I love very much. And he's just so damn adorable!

Asugi, personality wise, is essentially a flanderized Gaius. Seriously, his candy obsession is multiplied ten fold from Gaius, it's pretty grating.
Aw, no Dwyer? I originally hated his character but his supports are just plain adorable. Also in my playthrough he was great as a strategist and he could do surprisingly good magic damage.
I love the Dwyer + Mitama supports. They practically argue over sleep
Mighty Two-Headed Meerkat
Dwyer and Kiragi made me cry from laughter because Dwyer acts like a nagging mother to Kiragi XD
I prefer Morgan to Kana...
Joel Sasmad pretty much everyone does.
Joel Sasmad I gave my kana a silver sword renamed to Morgan > Kana
We're 4

it wasn't IS intention, that the children wielding the weapons of the Parents anyway. if you want to see them wearing the yatos, brynhildr ect., buy the dlc and see the children fighting a different path of revelation
Great list! Shigure is my personal favourite though since he’s kind, more open than his mother, surprisingly adorable at times, and is a great main character in Heirs of Fate. And fun fact, I have a younger Sophie

Karsten Ngai-Natsuhara Not to mention, she has her hand to break her pen/brush when she's angry, but no one (not even the ones with a staff or whatever) has that portrait edit
I like kana because you need simple joyous characters in a sea of complex and serious characters both for people in the game and you in real life
is it weird that I love Sophie's personal ability
Ophelia is my fav because of missiletain and she's so dang cute and entertaining
No not at all
I got the paralogue for Shiro at chapter 27 for Revelations. I couldn't get Shiro because his dumb ass kept attacking a level 20 hero and kept killing himself. As such, I can't get Shiro. Which I call bullshit on.
Rescue staves. Warping Azura. Some random stuff with the rescue command and pair up. Trust me, it is really really hard but you can do it!
I already just completed the chapter without getting him. Didn't think about that.
Jacob Tietjen oh, sorry. In your next playthrough, marry Ryoma before chapter 19 (in Revelations this means you must marry him IMMEDIATELY after you get him. Just grind supports through scouting missions or the free Awakening DLC. This means the enemies won't be promoted, and Shiro will survive for enough turns for you to reach him.
Facts
The free Awakening DLC was the most cancerous map whenever you played Lunatic. Freaking Master Ninjas with both Poison strike and Savage Blow AND SWAP. 5 god damn ninja hits each with stacking def/res debuffs meant it was so difficult to clear once you got to the point of promoted units in the story.
Great list! Here are my favorite children in Fates (excluding Kana).10-Midori. Interesting personality, and in my Birthright and Conquest files, I made her a Princess via Hinoka and Camilla respectively. 9- Percy. Adorable justice child. Enough said.8- Rhajat. Unlike most, I actually prefer the Awakening Clones over the originals. That being said I like Rhajat the best though. And that pink hair from Sakura though.7- Ophelia.

He may look like a male Azura on the outside, but considering how much more social he is than his mother, and his aptitude in paintings, I found him to be quite enjoyable, and different from the rest of the cast enough to have very interesting interactions with other children and the Avatar. 1- Siegbert. The crown is certainly a heavy burden, and I feel like Siegbert captures this even more than his father does, constantly fretting over if he's worthy to rule over Nohr, and his attempts to try to understand other cultures different from his own. I especially like his conversations with both avatars, (since it's the same for both genders apart from the fact that F!Avatar gets an S.)Caeldori, and Velouria.
Fiery Leaves
Siegbert is also one of my favorites :)
At least Xander told his son about his role.
Super Prinny
I really wonder what made Ryoma think that keeping his lineage a secret from THE HEIR OF THE HOSHIDAN THRONE was a good idea
I know right what did he think was going to happen?
I love Nina, Soleil and Ophelia.
They're supports are enjoyable, but keep on and on and on critical attack without killing weapons!

I think Asugi is his own character., but just barely. He still proved very useful to me.
WHO NEEDS SLEEP!!!???
NOBODY
Well, human beings reliably need sleep in order to grow, be at maximum thinking capacity, and all the other junk
+Darth R0xas I can work on 6
J hart Wow, that takes some serious will-power.
Darth R0xas nope, It requires a lot of caffeine. (I don't like coffee so coke it is)
I've been looking forward to this ever since I watched your best Hoshido and best Nohr videos!!!!!
My Soleil was a BEAST in my lunatic conquest since I managed to marry Laslow with Femu with +skill and merc and I gave her my secret books and got her hoshidan unity and quioxic with another soleil I had and I got her Sol, Luna and Aether and she was one of my best units in the game (especialy in chapter 26).
I made Kana to be a tank in birthright, in conquest a glass cannon, and a mixture of both in Revelations. Love how you're able to pull this off thanks to the multiple stories. Allows me to explore each avenue I can possibly take her in.
Azura: well known
Shigure: probably forgotten by everyone
because, he's not Azura
Yep.
Great list Crash. My favorite child unit is Ignatius. I can actually relate to him in about 90% of his personality (just not the fear of bugs). I made mine into a berserker with wary fighter, aether, deathblow and a brave axe and paired him up with the Corrin and he cant be stopped.
Shigure was the only one of all the kids that i actually liked. Kinda surprised to see him not on the list.
Awwww, me too. I was pouting after not seeing him here.
he was my favorite. I have a soft spot for artist characters.
The best child is obviously Hisame. Duh.
But seriously, Selkie/Velouria for life
best child unit: apologizes for murdering you.
To be fair, Hisame's pretty good on the battlefield. His personality just sucks.
OmniHarrier the only convo I like that involves hisame is with Shigure
PREPARE FOR OBLIVION!
but boi that haircut
Omg my comment was featured in the video! Amazing list again.
YES! Thanks for mentioning Orange. I've been watching it since it first aired and I just love all the feels gives me. Also, Suwa is Best Bro.
SUWA IS THE ULTIMATE BRO!!!!!
This might bring me hate but I like Rhajat eww okay to be honest I hated her because the localization team ruined her for me. JP version of her, Shara is much better because they actually explained why she's identical to Tharja and her supports with the Female avatar is just cute.
Schrödinger's cat Rhajat was my favorite character in the game, she's great. I also loved Forrest and Nina.
Forrest,Nina, and Sophie are my other favorites
Schrödinger's cat Sophie was pretty cool as well ^-^ I only ever use her on Birthright though. Forrest and Nina were without a doubt made for each other and their conversations were so cute and entertaining. I could happily enjoy a stand alone game starring just those two. Rhajat of course appeals to my love for the goth babe archetype. She was an awesome character to boot, not just hentai fodder.
Kullen64 I haven't checked Forrest and Nina's support so I'll look at that real quick. I feel the same about Rhajat too lol
Schrödinger's cat Glad I'm not the only one lol. Then again I've never played awakening so I don't completely understand the hate.
I have a theory that the "uninspired" children are actually there fates counterparts but taken back in time and placed in the world of Awakening. Kinda like how some of the child characters from Awakening where taken to Noir as main units.
So nobody is gonna talk about how Siegbert was named after his father's sword?
another great video as always of course I don't 100 percent agree but like you said it's your opinion keep up the good work my friend BLAZING KNIGHT your the best at what you do hands down
Thank very much buddy. Being called the best at what I do is quite the bold statement, but i'll gladly accept it! :)
when you said kana and supports:
I feel so bad for male kana the boy gets friend zoned in his s supports, while female version isnt determined exactly lol.
Theres some forshadow that do get to relationship when thier older its subtext.
Irais padron still got frendzoned lol
Selkie doesn't friendzone male Kana.
CGrascal I know I meant to say "he is the only character to actually get friend zoned by certain characters in his own s supports"
It's probably just me, but I found the Awakening fan service characters in Fates to be better characters than the original Awakening characters.
IMO.
Asugi hardly feels like a Gaius clone. Sure, they both like candy, but what else really? Asugi has the whole "Saizo" thing going on, plus he is a ninja not a theif. The other two are carbon copies, but I don't really care. Everyone makes such a huge fuss about it, they don't realize that even without those 3 characters Fates still has almost double the children of Awakening.
ThePontusAndersson disagree outside of Asugi the rest weren't great at all.
True, except tharja (if shes considered fan-service). Tharja's bad.
Like the redesign, glad you've got your own design now, it's cool.
Great video as always. Can't wait till you start doing your FE playthroughs :D
Thanks very much, and I very much look forward to making those FE playthroughs
I reclassed a Hinoka!Forrest to a Grandmaster and he literally wrecked so much face it was incredible. I find that most of the 'subpar' kids are great with proper reclassing though
Did you just say that Kiragi can be Shiro's sibling? They are always cousins
Well.....If Kiragi can be Forrests brother, than I can also be Shiros......
fun fact about shiro: potential spoiler for anyone who has not seen fate stay night UBW
he has the same english voice actor, name, and weapon type (if you use swordmaster, especially with hagakure blade equipped) as archer
I like Caeldori if Severa is her mom, that way, it makes sense and they both have unique dialogue in her paralogue and support conversations
If I had a quarter for every time he said Kana I'd have enough money for both versions of Fates and Revelations.
Huh. Got Sophie in my Lottery Shop when you were talking about her.
Nice Smosh reference Crash XD LOVED IT XD
You can't deny that FE is the master of pulling your heart strings with cute little mama's boys and daddy's girls. Feeling the Morgan and Kana love XD
I love Siegbert and Shiro the most out of all the child units. Nina, Asugi, Forrest, and Sophie also hold a special places in my heart.
Correction: In just one file, Male corrin can learn more thanks to his secret trick with same sex A supports and a friendship seal, try it out
I mean more than kana
AND kana cant do the trick
I once did a play though of conquest with selkie and veloria ethenjar, and when they transformed, I always said, "double yokai trouble!"
top ten cutest fire emblem characters sounds like a great topic for a new video
might want to hang on to that idea
Oh I am, and it will most certainly happen.
BLAZINGKNIGHT i'm looking forward to it ;)
(ps gregor better be on that list)
Awesome video! The ouran hshc reference was amazing! Also it took me three blazing sword playthroughs to realize that Lucius was a guy so I don't blame you. The reasons for liking each character were also well thought out. Both selkie and velouria were godlike in my playthroughs. I also like Dwyer since he reminds me of L from death note. (It's the hair!) Forrest was another favourite of mine since he was a nuclear warhead the time I married Leo. Finally I love Solei because of her innocent and carefree attitude, her confession quote is adorable and she was a pretty decent unit. I liked how she didn't care what others thought of her.
Glad you enjoyed the video, and yes Dwyer remind me so much of L to (it was almost uncanny).
BLAZINGKNIGHT It was even worse for me because he had black hair... For half a second I almost thought he WAS L! lol
Now we just need fire emblem 15 to have a child unit that looks EXACTLY like light yagami!
BLAZINGKNIGHT That'd be amazing!!! :) Then again it'd be so out of place...
Even though I didn't watch Deathnote, Dwyer also reminded me of L. And he's just so damn lazy. (And I love his voice. It suits him really well.) I think my favorite Children are Shigure, Kisaragi and Ophelia. But my favorite Character from Fates entirely is Takumi. He may be not Soren, but I still love him.
You new avatar looks like the Black Knight mega evolved.
Well I did get a class promotion, those master seals are VERY potent!
Dude, he promoted in the last video.
+BLAZINGKNIGHT makes sense... After all, those things can make horses out of nowhere!... And dragons.
Yay! Another Fates top 10 list. If you have time, you should do the top 10 worst Fates child units.
this list took you forever to come out with sheesh
Not gonna lie, I kinda squeed when i saw my comment show up at the beginning X3 But still, a great list as always. This is how I rank my favorite child units:
1. Forrest 2. Shigure 3. Siegbert4. Hisame (kid grew on me a lot)5. Kana 6. Dwyer 7. Shiro8. Ophelia 9. Caeldori10. Mitama
why is there so much Corrin bashing. I know he's not the best lord in the series but come on.
this isn't directed solely at this video rather most videos regarding Fates
because hes bland boring and dumb. Compare him to most lords and he fucking sucks. Like many of them develop and evolve over the course of the game and have human aspects to them. Corin is this marry sue blander than bread whos only personality traits are...naive and...fuck thats it isnt it.
+kidsinblack2 I did and while his/her decisions weren't the greatest I don't see how they themselve is dumb
+MegamanvolnutX corrin has more to their personality than just naivety, which is justified by the way, but I will agree that he isn't as interesting as most other lords, he isn't a bland character
Yeah, I mean Roy, Ephraim, Leif (if thats how you spell it) and even Hector on some level are more bland, and while a good chunk are great units, not all are the best characters
Yay another fe video
Rest in peace Percy. He was such a good unit for me and he has the same voice actor as Pit. ;~;
Not even an honorable mention for my boy Ignatius. Disgraceful.
Im gonna marry you and you not gonna stop it!!!!
Tbh I forgot he was a child unit
Which one? The awakening boss or the child unit
Nah he wasnt memorable
My man deserves more love and appreciation
B-But... Shigure?!
4:00, YO MY SCREEN CRACKED AT THAT MY FRIEND
Mitama and Nina for sure were my favorite they felt fleshed out and overall great in the battlefield.
Well the way they did it in Awakening and Fates could be considered dumb (I for one don't have a Problem with it since, well it's all Fiction anyway) But when it comes to Realism yeah not the right way to go about it I suppose...
What they could do for next time (maybe?...) Instead of Time travel and time warping dimensions, they could well do a Time jump cut?
For example all characters are aged around 20 to 40 or so then you are at chapter 20 where there will be a time of peace for 15 to 20 years or so and during that Time these Kids could normally grow up!
You could even give the Parent characters certain handicaps or Bonuses, for example Character A got a wound on his leg during the 20th chapter, then his speed got a little reduced and Character B continued training during this Time of Peace and got Stronger because of it?
Ofcourse these characters will need a makeover since well...... They got OLDERRRRRR!!!
Well this is just an Idea, it all depends on Intelligent Systems what they'll do with the next Game!
Pretty much what they did back in the mid 90's in Japan with Genealogy of the Holy War. I do agree that they should do something similar there ( also if we get a third time travel thing it'd be redundant.)
We can only hope that they will draw some inspiration from their Roots!
Then again Storywise It'd be hard to come up with a new Story and make it feel new I suppose...
Welp good luck to Intelligent Systems for their new FE Games!
*When I saw forrests hp, magic and res growth rates*
HOLY SHIT
*when I saw everyother growth rate*
HOLY SHIT!
*when you see everyone's growth rates in Binding Blade*
oh shit.
I love this list!!!
This is the first list of yours where I agree with 100%!
Every child unit you listed is amazing and I love how Midori is no 1, my daughter is great!
Yes the reason for these kids existing is a load of BS and my most hated aspect of Fates, but when a child's character is good they are REALLY good. Great list!
Well i'm certainly glad you liked it, it's not often someone's opinion match the same as mine, but yes I agree, when a child is a good character, they're a VERY good character!
BLAZINGKNIGHT
Good good.
Midori came as a genuine surprise at no 1. By the time you finished listing the honourable mentions I doubted that Midori would appear as she was the last child character I really liked that you hadn't listed yet.
But then ta-dah! Midoir at no 1. You got full marks across the board from me. It definitely helped that you gave Velouria and Selkie the same spot. Shiro is the best bro and Ophelia and Nina are my spirit animals XD
I agree with you about Kana and Midori being the most adorable things ever. But somehow, someway, my two favorite child units were your honorable mentions! How does that happen?!
How the hell is kana better than Corrin? Corrin has the yato which boosts stats just by being in the inventory.
I think he mean in personally
TheDeathby2
corrin's not better. its his sword that is...
Hahahahaha Corrins weak as hell my kana is a bow knight (playing birthright) is a God she kills everything
It's stupid how Leo and oboro couldn't marry I mean imagine her ad his mom
Ace Jones
I NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT THAT BEFORE
Too bad Oboro may not be the best mom for Forrest, I mean one is a magic unit, and the other is a physical.
@@missplayer30 balanced dagger forest
for me personally my favorite is between either Siegbert or Sophie, I like mounted units quite a bit and cause of the way I do supports having Siegbert pick up Hinoka's classes is neat also Sophie is neat with her abilities.
Velouria and Siegbert were the best for me. Kana with Kaden as his father was freakin awesome!
"Child units that can have other child units"
Already happened! Support an Awakening child unit with Robin!
Blazieth he means two 2nd gen having their own
if severa in fates marry owain then lucina is severa's cousins (Sorry for the bad english)
i don't play revelation but i can make marry subaki and severa?
Yes you can in that pathway.
BLAZINGKNIGHT wtf it's nonsense
cordelia's daughter is her Mother? (?)
Cordelia and Caeldori are TECHNICALLY different characters, but they do bring the similarities.
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS, SOPHIE AND OPHELIA BETTER BE ON HERE.
Update after watching: YASSSSSSSSSSSSS
Boy, are you in for a treat
And the fact that ohpeila has the brand
Waiting for the top 10 nohr/hoshido songs
Next video :)
Cool i'll be patient as ever. Midori was my number 1 too. Keep up the great work :)
+BLAZINGKNIGHT Music as the next video. Nice, and good luck, because without a doubt someone will arrive, and say " Blank shouldn't be here, blank should" and stuff like that, music being very subversive and all
+BLAZINGKNIGHT I'll be looking forward to that. However, I can probably predict #1.....
Indeed, you can't rank music objectively since it's all down to personal tastes.
I have no real favorite child character in Fates and didn't really use them. Oh well, I did enjoy the list however. (Though I do have a soft spot for Sophie.)
Oh and Madori ahahaha
ALSO this is just an idea, but you should try a top 10 fates/awakening parings video and tell us what your favorite supports were
Some of my favorites are
Asugi: I already really liked Gaius, and when I found out he would be my son in Fates, it was awesome. His supports with Saizo are pretty interesting and really "sweet" at the end. Plus he destroys in the battlefield, probably from having my Avatar as his mother.
Kana: He is so freaking adorable!
Ophelia: LUMINARY UPPERCUT! My granddaughter is great
Selkie: An adorable little ball of energy and I like her design.
Forrest: I quite like his design and I can relate to his habit on rambling on this he's passionate about. Also he's just a nice guy.
Shigure: He's a very similar case to Forrest, being nice and just having a serene aura about him. His role in Hiers of Fate made me like him even more.
And my favorite child unit is
Soleil: She's just a great role model to me. She doesn't care what people think about her and is extremely optimistic. Also she is freaking adorable and is a beast on the battlefield from my experience.
Great list! Did you do any child pairings? If so, which ones did you do?
I was very excited about having bisexual options in Fates, and Niles is definitely someone I'll consider marrying in my male run, but Rhajat kinda pissed me off. I kinda get it, what with her personality and all, but why couldn't they do something like how you consider Ophelia?
"Ophelia is better than Knoll." dude, EVERY dark mage is better than Knoll. Even Sophia is better than Knoll, and almost everyone will say she sucks.
Shattercoin I'm so triggered Sophia is my favorite dark mage ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
But witch ophelia is pretty damn strong
I think the purpose for the clone characters was this:
It would be a familiar face for those who played awakening but it wouldn't but be suspicions if you haven't. So in a way I think it was meant as a joke because if you rearrange the letters in the names of Asugi, Rhajat, and Caeldori you will get the Gaius Tharja and Cordelia
Unrelated, but...
Nice username! :)
trearoos Thank you! One of my favorite characters.
Yeah Kana is a one note Character but I really like him. I also I like what a hard worker he is. In his support with his Father we found out what he does to help in the camp. He goes on patrol with Percy, hunting with Selkie and working on his teamwork with her and from Siegbert he learns how to work hard on himself. What a great kid.
Don't blame you for confusing Libra for a girl. He has a girl as his voice actor
Huh. That makes sense.
Every Route Has Kaze So...
BEST KANA
AND SILIAS AND JAKOB...
SO MANY KANAS
GilvaSinner every route has azura so...
Is it possible to ship kaze with azura
I latest run of birthrights I used the Vanguard seal and forged a custom +5 Steel sword I named Ostmark for him. Spent a fortune and time making that bloody thing.
oh well soleil was in the honarble mentions so ok great video.
Kana > Morgan
Fight me, you fussy plebes.
Boyd the Reaver
I disagree, but we are all allowed to have an opinion
Me: Morgan, open fire.
Morgan: *Uses Ignis with Ruin equipped * Amateur.
I like the change of look.
I love Europe. Fates is all but dead here in America, so it's nice to have a person still doing regular uploads.
Well, that, the metric system, and the better spelling of armour.
You say armor is spelt better with a "U" after the "O", yet you fail to realize that the "U" breaks the own rules of the English language (Armor should read as arm-or, armour should be read as arm-our based off of the basic rules of english). How exactly is it better?
Most American spellings of words are like that so our Launguage conforms to its own rulesm
how is it dead here?
***** Most of the skill threads I see were posted 3-5 months ago. It takes much longer to get an online match than you normally see. The only regular uploaders I'm seeing are Pheonixmaster1, Rasoli Plays, and BLAZINGKNIGHT.
I even understand it; you get the game, play through the three routes, maybe play some of the DLC, mess around with the online mode until you realize that you're outmatched because you don't have 200+ hours to grind or 40 spare dollars for the necessary DLC, and move on to other games. It's a singular experience that only the most devoted players will stick with for more than a few months, and those few months are up in North America.
JK Gamer people are still playing it for fun. Just as people are playing any other fire emblem game
***** I suppose people are still playing, but the online community seems to be in decline.
Blazing knight with your style evolving and improving overtime it might be a bit of remasters later on
if you mean my older videos then yes I will got back to some of them an update them in the new style since they haven't aged well.
Aww I wish Shigure was there I love him as a character and currently making him a better unit
I paired Laslow with Camilla, and Soleil came out a BEAST. With the Axebreaker skill, stats inspired from one of the best tanks in the game, and an awesome character, I found Soleil to be a very good unit for me.
Perhaps I gave Camilla the wrong husband. Eh, Percy has slightly better accuracy than Arthur and can fly so I'm ok. Though Selena can't dish out or take hits at all and that was Laszlo's wife in my game.
Gangrel is pretty complex if you recruit him in the game. He also shine through DLC and stuff.
That not-haiku about Corrin was a sick burn.
haha, for me, forrest is my second strongest unit. he works really well as a dark knight, you just have to take time to get his weapon stats up c:
It was a nice list to listen to as I just recently got into fire emblem UA-camrs. My 3 favorites are Dwyer, Forrest and Shigure despite me hating Azura. Sad to not see the coffee sloth Dwyer
No love for Percy or Shigure? Different tastes, I suppose!
and who knew your #1 favorite child unit is also the developers' favorite
along with Shigure
