Also, I'm assuming that the Valentian characters are going to be placed between Sheena and the other Archanean characters? It would only be appropriate to do it this way, after all...

...Loptyr's physical body was never in Jugral in any shape or form. His ghost is what made the journey.

..."Tomorrow"? The maintenance is going to take place from nine hours before the daily update time on April 12th until four hours before the daily update on April 12th. Just to clarify.

Oh hey, another thread dedicated to trolling, circlejerking and general "screeching". Like clockwork.

Note how in his battle against Alm we see Rudolf also toss away his own shield.

You got the explanation for the Binding Shield backwards. The Binding Blade's name is a reference to the Binding Shield's name and not vice versa.

You're assuming that Duma and Mila started fighting more or less right after getting banished and then forged the accord afterwards. They could have been present for a long, long time before the forging of said accord, you know? The time spent between them first arriving in Valentia and them forging the accord could easily be more than 3000 years, thus being a longer period of time than the one that has passed since the forging of said accord until present day. And so far I have seen nothing to indicate that such a scenario is out of the question.

Awakening's Naga looks exactly like Nagi, with only very minor changes in clothes to account for different art styles. Awakening's Naga is obviously Nagi after she stabilized enough to no longer need to be locked in that coffin of hers.

The timeline from SoV's official site makes it clear that the accord between Duma and Mila was forged some 3000 years before present day. Duma and Mila have never been to Jugral, certainly not during the era of the Twelve Crusaders.

There is little reason to believe that Medeus was ever in direct conflict with the original Naga himself/herself. And there is certainly no evidence to imply anything of the sort. I also don't think that there is any evidence to even imply that Naga ever even met Loptyr himself back in Archanea. But please do correct me (by bringing up some evidence) if I'm actually wrong about this.

Tiki was a special case because she was a child. Gotoh himself says as much. Her being a child means that she lacks mental fortitude and thus would be easily influenced by any destructive urges that she might experience. As for her being a special level of a threat, that is probably because she is, you know, Naga's daughter. As in, the direct descendant of who was probably the most powerful dragon of all for a long, long time.

I'm...not going to comment on this subject yet. Maybe in a few months, when all the information from both the English and the Japanese versions has been gathered in various databases.

Well, the English team is seemingly smart enough to know what the proper word for a single Fury is so they just might.

Because there's nothing to indicate that these weapons weren't named by humans. In other words, am I to believe that, for example, both continents just happened to have an extremely powerful lance and both of them got named "Gradivus"? And just to clarify, when I said "mass produced" I meant "mass produced by the dragons" (or the relatively recently changed Manaketes since dragons would have no use for such weaponry). And even if the dragons did name them then what? Did the place where Adrah found them inside the Fane of Raman happened to have nametags for the weapons' models that were written in a human language?

The writers don't get to decide what is basic common sense and what isn't. I don't mind these weapons being mass produced, even. But them having the exact same names? And besides, you're the one who can provide the answer to this next question. Is there an actual explanation for these weapons' presence within the borders of Valentia in SoV? Because if there isn't then I see no reason to believe that their existence in SoV is anything beyond IS copypasting the aforementioned fanservice.

Them being in Valentia in Gaiden was just so that the player could have access to the previous game's legendary weapons. It was nothing beyond fanservice of this basic of a level. There's no point in keeping things that are downright nonsensical now that Fire Emblem is a franchise of more than two games and when you take into account that both Archanea and Valentia are settings that take place not only in the same universe but in the same time period. I'm well aware. However, Marth's native game, where the unsealed state is the only state, has it simply referred to as "Falchion". By contrast, Awakening used the term "Falchion" to refer to the sealed state because that was the default in that game. However, this isn't Awakening and the Falchion needing batteries in that time period isn't a factor. In fact, the English version of Fates refers to Marth's sword as "Falchion" as well. Granted, it refers to Chrom's sealed sword as "Falchion" as well but that version of it doesn't appear in SoV. Having said all this, this gives us a chance to have Marth's sword be referred to as "Falchion" for a third time while Chrom's sword will remain stuck at two appearances for now. And if there were to be another game which features both of these versions then I could see Marth's sword being kept as "Falchion" for the sake of consistency while Chrom's sword would get renamed to "Sealed Falchion" for the sake of differentiation. This gets even more likely when you take into account how any future games are more likely to feature Marth's sword without featuring Chrom's given that Marth has an amiibo while Chrom only appeared in Fates for the sake of referencing the previous game in the franchise, which Awakening no longer is. And thus I'm hopeful that this chance that SoV gave us to have the default state be recognized as the default gets capitalized upon. Because that is what it actually is and the need for a sealed state came later. Treat the actual default as the default and the actual special state as the special state and not vice versa. Though, admittedly, if Chrom's sword were to appear again it would probably be in a state that is meant to represent the Exalted Falchion from Awakening's endgame...But that could simply be referred to as "Falchion" as well after SoV (hopefully) sets things more or less in stone.

Given that Marth's weapon is called the "Exalted Falchion" while Alm's is simply the "Falchion" I'm holding out hope that Alm's sword as well as the Valentian Mercurius, Gradivus and Parthia will get original names in the English version if only because of how stupid the idea of them having the exact same names as their Archanean counterparts is. Also, some of the minor villains are going to need a major reworking when it comes to their names. Oh, and actually spell the names of the various monsters correctly, as per the mythological references. And if Alm's sword does get renamed then I'd prefer to see the name of the phantom Marth's sword being changed to "Falchion". That is the sword's original state, dammit. Said state doesn't need some special moniker.

Alm, Celica, Mycen and Berkut for sure. Maybe Clive and either Saber, Valbar or Conrad as well.

Implying the sort of the people who would be involved in looking over the script for content of this nature would even care about this point. ...What the actual garbage am I reading? I get the idea behind Lucina's Falchion not dealing effective damage to monsters in general or gods but it doesn't even deal effective damage to Draco Zombies? And Marth's Falchion doesn't either but it does deal effective damage to eyeball monsters of all things? Also, does the final boss of chapter 6 count as a "god" for Marth and Alm's Falchions?

Glad to see Team Minerva winning and here's hoping that said streak will continue. And though I'll be sad to see Team Minerva lose eventually it'll be worth it just to see the screeching that will ensue as a result of Camilla's victory triggering everyone.

So...I'm assuming that the Falchions that Marth and Alm use are the exact same in this game's data and that Alm's Falchion is still effective against both all monsters and Duma himself. Does that mean that Marth's Falchion was supposed to have always been effective against both dragons and monsters all along? Because if it is then that would seemingly be another function that got changed by Awakening's era given that the undead count as monsters and yet neither of the Falchion's non-basic forms is effective against the Risen.

Here's hoping that the gauntlet gets accompanied by either a paralogue or a xenologue like the last one was.

For the sake of averting cartoon physics I'm going to argue that this representation is mostly stylistic. Grima being King Ghidorah sized is fine but this borders on ludicrous.

I'm pretty sure that the entire Binding Shield (Orbs and all) was made by the dragons.

...Still, Grima isn't the size of a geographical landmark. He can't be seen from space or anything.
