I do to, I like the dynamic between him and Altena. The whole "i'm fighting for her, not for you, Seliph" is something I'm a fan of as well. In any case, he's a far more gray character than his good old dad, who has straight up painted himself black, and I like gray Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know that I'd call him admirable or a good person or ruler, but it's a neat aspect to his character. That said, I definitely prefer Arione, and his relationship with Altena is one of my favorites in the series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, like Arvis, he was pushed to desperation thanks to Quan not helping matters between Thracia and Leonster. But unlike Arvis, Travant isn't really being forced into doing horrible shit, but he sees that he has to be a villain to allow Thracia to prosper, thanks to it being ruled by Arione and Altena Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's shit like the Yied Massacre and the Battle of Belhalla that makes me crave a Genealogy remake, but dread it as well. Genealogy was by far the most violent FE, but I feel like it also had the best story as well. Seeing those brutal events in cutscenes would be incredible. Hell, even Eldigan's death would be amazing Speaking of which, have you read the Oosawa manga? It's a fantastic manga that takes every single dark moment you've ever imagined in Genealogy and makes it 10 times worse by actually going into detail. Like, "Ethlyn cuts her own throat so Travant can't use her as leverage against Quan" levels of detail Edited September 11, 2018 by peevthesheev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bottlegnomes Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 @peevthesheev I would kill for a Thracia and/or Genealogy remake, especially with how great the art in Heroes has been for all of them. I want to say I actually started to read it, but got too busy before I could get very far. Not sure if there's more than one FE4 manga. That said, thank you for reminding me. I need to get back to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ōsawa’s may be the most famous, but it’s definitely not the only one. There's the Oosawa one, which covers both Generations, and is probably the best and most faithful manga, and is my personal favorite. One of my favorite things about it is how willing Oosawa is to give antagonists a sympathetic light, like Andorey, Reptor, and Pamela, as well as a lot of her pairings matching up with mine. Plus I like the fact that she took the not so subtle allusions to Eldigan and Lachesis's real feelings and made them straight up fact, although it came at the cost of making Eldigan's wife into a jealous bitch who wanted Lachesis dead The Nuts Fujimori is a gag manga that ends when Sigurd starts marching on Phinora, before shit starts REALLY hitting the fan. This was probably for the best, because I don't think there is any god damn way to portray Phinora through Belhalla in a humorous light There's the Nea Fuyuki manga, which covers from the start of Gen 2 to Travant's defeat. I'm not really a fan of this one, if only because it changes Arione to a woman, something that just looks and feels wrong. I don't know much about the last manga, to be honest Edited September 11, 2018 by peevthesheev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a platonic, adopted sibling relationship. A lesbian Altena would have been an interesting way to keep the "adopted siblings falling in love" meme fresh, but Fuyuki just cut off Arione's dick and the romance with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing they just wanted to kill the incest and thought Arion was very womany with his long hair? I can see a little something here. But why change Arion's sex in case of wanting to kill incest. Same sex incest shouldn't be as bad as normal incest, if it is consensual, since no children can result. Although I wouldn't mind a Queen of Thracia: Arion coming eventually in a genderbent banner. Alongside Martha of Altea, Manith of Begnion, and Vaido of Bern. Edited April 6, 2018 by Interdimensional Observer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I wouldn't mind a Arion It's possible, seeing how Fuyuki doesn't go for Seliph/Julia, and instead goes for Seliph/Lana and fucking Ares/Julia of all people Although, it is hinted that Larcei likes Shannan, so who the hell knows Man, it really doesn't take much to make Arione into a woman Edited September 11, 2018 by peevthesheev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Saias, yeah, that does really seem OOC for Arvis. It's a shame because I quite like Saias as a character. That's quite an interesting change for Arione. From looking at the art, I do believe that is the one I started. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From looking at the art, I do believe that is the one I started. Linoan doesn't bother me anywhere near as much as Saias. It's been said many times that Arvis was never attracted to any woman before Deirdre, thanks to his Oedipus complex. So to make Saias, he either fucked Aida before he met Deirdre, which would be seriously out of character for him to be anywhere near attracted to her, or he did it AFTER he and Deirdre were together, and given how Arvis's father was and how Arvis hated Victor for what he did, this is another impossibility. While I agree with you that Saias is a good character, his existence fucking infuriates me because of who his father is. It would have been so much simpler to give Julius or Julius major Fala blood and be done with it. Although, I don't know if a character can actually have 2 different full holy bloods, given that we never saw someone with it While I don't advocate reading a manga before it's finished, I can never say enough good things about the Osawa manga. If you're interested, you should definitely pick that shit up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
