HK Motendra Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 (edited) Anyone ever wonder how the mask concealed her long hair? EDIT: one more thing. It also happens to look like a butterfly. Is there some sort of motif for the butterfly thing? Edited July 28, 2013 by Hero-King Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aquakat Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 I think it was mentioned in an art book that she actually tucked most of that long hair in her shirt. Now, why it all suddenly appears after the mask is cut, I'm not quite sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether or not that's true, the short hair looks far too real to have just been tucked away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HK Motendra Posted July 28, 2013 Author Share Posted July 28, 2013 Meh, maybe I'm just overthinking it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT075 Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 i suppose a potential explanation is that a spell of sealing was cast upon her hair, sealing it into her mask. when the mask was broken, the seal was broken with it and thus her hair was released i'm trying to read this aloud with a straight face and i can't Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airship Canon Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 (edited) Broken link? Where? Whether or not that's true, the short hair looks far too real to have just been tucked away Zerochan links don't work. Use Imgur and reupload. Also, yes, there is a butterfly motif with her. This might give you a good reason why. There's also "Butterfly Effect", which is a time travel thing, but it actually doesn't apply at all to FE:A, (If you've got a story that uses Butterfly Effect, you do -not- see In Spite of a Nail. At all. This game runs on In Spite of a Nail- as the causes that create the effects are huge (and you can't fight fate is half the game), and then you've got things like Lucina being born in the altered timeline. If Butterfly Effect was in play, there would not be an altered timeline Lucina, as a little example.)

Some people say that the Butterfly motif around Lucina is a reference to the Buterffly of Doom (TV Troope version) who is related with time travel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dai Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 I just think she cut her hair before she traveled back, and it grew back during the two-year time-period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, she has short hair, then it instantly reappears when her mask is broken in Chapter 6, which is before the timeskip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aquakat Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Whether or not that's true, the short hair looks far too real to have just been tucked away To be more specific, I'm pretty sure it stated she cut the top layer of her hair short, and then tucked the rest of it.

Dai Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 No, she has short hair, then it instantly reappears when her mask is broken in Chapter 6, which is before the timeskip. It was just my opinion. Also, one other thing I wanna add: whenever I watch the cutscene where her mask is cut, right after she lands from striking down the assassin, her hair seems longer, and then we see her full hair length after the mask gets cut.

Zerochan links don't work. Use Imgur and reupload. That's funny, I can see it just fine but if you say so, ok. Also, yes, there is a butterfly motif with her. This might give you a good reason why.

Some people say that the Butterfly motif around Lucina is a reference to the Buterffly of Doom (TV Troope version) who is related with time travel I guess it would make sense if your name comes from a butterfly to have a mask to symbolize her name. As for this "Butterfly Effect", it would seem like it would have some relation to the plot based on the whole time travel aspect, but it's not used so that speculation is irrelevant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karasz Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 I think one of the most plausible explanations here is that she hides her hair under that scarf she wears. If you compare Lucina and Marth's portraits, they share a bit of similarities in hair style, but they have a noticeable hair length difference (obviously). And besides, look at the cutscene for Chapter 6. She trips over a sword and her mask gets cut in half. The shock of tripping and nearly getting killed is probably what makes her hair flow from underneath her scarf. So that's one way of thinking about it.
