Water Mage

No offense, but your first argument fell flat the moment you based it with your own experiences, you can't claim that's the way it was for everyone, and for some people even causal is scary, as you lose the unit for rest of the battle. And mind you, phoenix mode is not something that you give instant victory, you still have to put an effort.

It is, isn't it? Thinking about it, a chainsaw sword with power over light and darkness is something that would fit perfectly in Gurren Lagann!

Well...

Let's forget about this and to topic shall we? We should talk about about more important things, Like what is the Fates's equivalent of the "drill that pierces the heavens!"?

I think War Priestess is the better choice, not only she has Renewal, but bows are really good, especially on Nohr, which lacks bow users, in fact you should use War Priestess on your Nohr playthrough, that being said, Maid is still a pretty good class. Maids are magekillers, and I heard mage killers are more useful in the Hoshido path, However this is coming from someone who doesn't own the game, so take what I said with a grain of salt, I could be completely wrong.

Trust me, there has been games with way more mature content than Fates, but still got a T rating, so it's unlikely that the game will have a M rating.

It's not really about correcting, it's just that Ryoma's page at Tvtropes was really bad, just ask anyone who read it, you'll see I'm not exagerating. They were saying things that were blalant lies, such as claiming that Ryoma spent the entire Conquest path using dirty tricks to force you to return to Hoshido and also said that Since I wasn't sure if this information was true at the time, I thought this thread was the best place to ask, since it was all about Ryoma. And while this is off-topic, let me tell you other examples: They said that Marx never got angry at you for siding with Hoshido in Birthright, and dealt with the situation very camly, and said that Ryoma held personally against you for not siding with Hoshido in the third path, while Marx was very understanding. There are other examples but I don't want to derail the thread any further, so let's get back to talking about Ryoma.

For those feeling unconfortable, do remember that this from the same culture that thinks that women physically abusing men funny, so a character violenting waking another is nothing new, it happens in anime all the time.

Now I want to Marx to be voiced by Kyle Herbert and serious character to be voiced by Johnny Yong Bosch.

Honestly, I see nothing wrong, seriously what's wrong with a very easy feature? Not everyone is going to understand the mechanics at first, so what's wrong with helping them? Why are people are taking it as a personal offense?

I've been such a fool... How did I not notice this before?

Awww... Nishiki and Mozume were so cute! Actually most of Nishiki's supports are cute.

Yay! Finally, someone older that me in this forum!But seriously, you're right, we shouldn't let age get in the way of what we like. But back on topic, While I also love Takumi/Oboro, I also really like Oboro/Zero, their supports were really well-written and it shows that Oboro it's not nearly as hateful as she makes herself to be, in fact maybe hatred it's not really in her nature.

Silas/Sakura is slowly becoming my OTP, simply because Silas was so smooth, I also happen to really, really like Felicia/Ryoma for some reason... Was it one on FF.net? One that he would watch her dance from a tree and he argued with Saizou? I kinda liked it! ... ... ... ... ... Yes, I'm a 24 year old man that reads fanfiction and ship fictional characters, got a problem with that?

And to think that he's a perfect gentleman... I wonder if he got slapped? Probably, but he still kept going, for Lawzard's sake. Marx is one man that can't be stopped!

"Setsuna: It's fine...I shot to miss."That made me laugh more than it should. But anyway, I liked that support, and for some reason the confenssion didn't feel to rushed, maybe because it seemed Setsuna kept blushing during the B and A rank supports?

Favorite Shared Characters? Silas and Kaze, what can I say? I'm a sucker for nice people. I also really like Felicia Favorite Hoshidans? Ryoma, Sakura, Nishiki and Oboro Favorite Nohrinan? Zero, Leo, Charlotte and Elise Favorite Children? Shigure, Shinomone and I don't know why, but I really like Deere.

Trust me, my dear you did not want see what was written in Ryoma's page, it wasn't pretty...it really wasn't pretty. Someone over at TVtropes really hated Ryoma and Hoshido and wanted to make the Nohr sibilings look perfect, And as why they are calling him hot-blooded, Ryoma really IS hot-blooded, he just the subdued type of hot-blooded. And, suprisingly, he's also incredibly romantic, seriously, read Shinomone's supports with his mother to see what I'm talking about, I did not expect Ryoma to be so sweet and loving to his wife.

Doesn't the first part the special class change music sounds like Mario Kart?

It was already implied in the main games, that Anankos wasn't always crazy, and Kamui and Aqua's third path supports even has the two express pity for him.

His supports with Elise are interesting, as it seems to imply that he's also quite lonely, maybe that's why he's so friendly and nice?I also like his support with Sakura, as it shows him being quite smooth.

I wonder if different routes will have different tier lists... From what I've heard Silas and Oboro are quite valued in Hoshido, while Zero and Mozume are great in Nohr.

Yeah, the Felicia/Ryoma support is pretty funny, it's actually one of my favorites, since it's rare to see Ryoma in a funny and lighthearted situation. I mean, it's not everyday you see the mighty Ryoma actually gulping in fear. Serious, he actually gulps in fear in their support!

Foleo does have very high magic, and it's Leon's who is very popular himself.
