  1. I'm currently doing a True Classic run of Awakening, and I'm wondering which promotion I should give Lissa. War Cleric has somewhat better skills, as well as access to axes (which I sorely need; Vaike died and my only axe users currently are Fredrick and Cerche), while Sage has better magic and gives her a weapon that capitalizes on her best stat. What do you think? (I'm kind of leaning towards Sage)

  2. In my view, Anime is just a term for Japanese animation, no more, no less. Sure, there are tropes and connotations attributed to Anime, like shonen protagonists, overly long action sequences, and fanservice, but it's the same for "Cartoons." When you think cartoons, you think zany slapstick humor, weird and wonderful sound effects, and even orchestral soundtracks. Still, Batman: The Animated Series is as much of a cartoon as much as Hello Kitty's Paradise is an anime. So, no, Fire Emblem isn't "anime." It's a Japanese Video Game series.

    I mean, I totally agree that it has plenty of Anime tropes in later titles. Especially the second listed one.

  3. It's kind of rude, I feel. I personally, got into the franchise though Awakening (well, more accurately through Smash Bros; my first ever game was technically FE7 from the eshop), and I wouldn't want to be called a "Baby" because I was too young to understand the sophisticated elements of the Fire Emblem series beforehand. Seriously, Awakening came out when I was 9.
