Xeno Chronicles 2 sounds like a good game but these designs are just not it.

I still have a strong negative reaction to Xenoblade 2's art style. Blech. Oh well, next is Elma, right? Yup. Gotta be.

Oh just thinking about the music makes me excited. Hopefully we get a huge selection of songs. I hope she tranforms into
Pneuma
for her Final Smash.

As much as I liked Elma, I know for a fact that having her in Smash would be a huge spoiler for everyone.

On the plus side, it's new female characters for SSB.
On the minus side, they're some of the absolutely worst designs out of any character depicted in a Switch game.
And if I say "some of" it's because the worsts of the worsts are other characters in Xeno2.

Can I get some clarification from experts on whether Mythra's underwear is showing through her outfit, or if I'm just seeing things and looking for another reason to hate these ridiculously shitty character designs even more?
You're luck she's wearing something on her legs really.

Not my boy Rex or Lora, but doesn't matter. We also get more Xenoblade 2 soundtracks too!

This was an amazing reveal, I love how it was actually in-game too. The moment it started I knew it was going to be Smash haha. Looks like they had fun making it.

I never got far enough into Xenoblade 2 to have an opinion on this, though I do think it makes sense. I really should go back and start it again after absolutely loving and finishing XCDE last year.

Of the two fighter passes I basically only really like Steve. Many of the first pass were OK though outside of the first and last characters, and Min Min is OK too. I hope the they can pick it up with the final two characters, still holding out for Doomguy.

Scarlet "Shinobu" Jacobs, since we don't have to pick protags anymore.
Pyra/Mythra are still protags, & Min Min got in through Yabuki's "Everyone is a protagonist" excuse. Plus, after Sakurai didn't even consider Twintelle, I doubt he'd consider Shinobu over Travis (otherwise they would have held off on his Mii costume).

This actually makes it 7 characters for season pass 2 since Sakurai counting Pyra and Mythra as two numbers in the roster.

I'm going to politely ask you not bother replying to me with "this is why this character can't get in".
