I’m just saying that now Super Smash Bros. I, too, get tired of Ike batting me around like his personal shuttlecock. Look, I’m not saying you have to like Sephiroth, Lucina, or Shulk.

Steve barely cracks this list as his sword is definitely not the star of his moveset.

The Link trio plays largely the same with some slight differences, so you could also argue they’re just variations of a single sword user.

Not your grandmother’s sword user at all. They also wield dual swords that play more like twin daggers than anything.

Pit/Dark Pit are essentially the same character, so you could argue they count as one sword user.

Sometimes it turns into something more blade-like, but it won’t in Smash (likely due to the lack of Disney involvement). Sure, he swings it like a sword, but no one would call me a swordsman if I swung a broom around. There are also a few caveats to consider that further reinforce my argument: So why are we still on about “too many sword users”? Thus, in reality, there are a plethora of alternatives for those who despise sword users with the burning passion of a thousand Hotheads. Looking at it like this, you’ll see that there’s an overwhelming number of fighters that wouldn’t fall into the detested sword category. You know who also doesn't use a sword? Pac-Man. But for those who just hate anyone who uses such a weapon no matter what they look like or where they come from, let’s break down how many pure sword wielders the game truly has.Īs you can see, the visual representation of non-sword users resembles Pac-Man. Would it be acceptable if Luke Skywalker, an American-made swordsman, joined the roster? That’s a rhetorical question, as I know the main problem lies in the swords themselves.

But I also don’t complain about any series having too many representatives. That’s roughly 14 percent of the roster, still very little in the grand scheme, but why does no one flip their lids about this? Not only that, but people were screaming at Sakurai to add Waluigi! Hey, I’m one of them – I’ve wanted that purple goof in the game for years. Twelve when you include Donkey Kong (which he totally counts, but I’m being ultra-specific for the sake of argument). Ultimate’s roster has 11 characters from the Mario series. Barely 10 percent of the roster is too much? Out of 82 characters (89 with Echoes, but we’ll stick to the official number), only eight hail from Fire Emblem. Has anyone counted the roster? There are eight Fire Emblem fighters in a game of 80+ characters. What people really seem to mean is that there are too many Fire Emblem representatives in Smash, though even that criticism barely holds water. I know the “anime sword user” term arose from the perceived abundance of Fire Emblem characters, fighters who best fit the prototypical “anime look" (whatever that is). Rool (because Rare, a British studio, conceived these guys despite Nintendo owning the characters).ĭon’t mind me I’m just poking fun at this objectively silly part of the complaint. In fact, the only non-Japanese fighters are Banjo Kazooie, Minecraft Steve, and – to get super duper technical – the tie-wearing Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, and King K. They look like anime characters.” I guess? I mean, if you’re saying they look like Japanese cartoons, then news flash: nearly the entire roster falls into that distinction. You may now be saying, “You’re arguing semantics. They’re all original video game characters.

But it isn’t nearly as much of an issue as sword-haters would have you believe, and I’m here to prove it in every scientific and absurd way imaginable.įirst, let’s break down the term “anime sword user.” What does that actually mean? The label “anime” doesn’t make sense as none of the characters in Smash come from an actual anime. I’m not saying you shouldn’t be concerned with such a thing – variety is the spice of life, and no one wants an overabundance of the same character type.

While I get where it comes from, it’s also completely overblown and inaccurate. Ultimate roster for good, I can finally say what I’ve been holding back for years: the game does not have too many “anime sword users.” It’s the most screeched complaint about the game, and it drives me up a wall. Now that Sora’s arrival has sealed the deal on the Super Smash Bros.
