Okay I could see an argument for why Bakugo is not a complete waste of space (even tho he is), but what possible defense could one come up with for Sasuke and Akechi?

Sasuke's motivation is very compelling on paper.

Unfortunately, he's written horribly as Kishimoto wrote him as a bad boy character instead of a survivor of torture and trauma.

Sakura and Ino lusting after Sasuke because Sasuke's family got murdered makes the tone completely fucked up and makes it hard to empathize with Sasuke because the overall world makes him come across as the "Talented Bad Boy Prick" trope.

I mean it honestly wouldn't suprise me to much considering Japan's taste in favorite characters is often questionable.

Pancake prince is the character with the most nonsensical character motivation and backstory out of everyone in a game with a stupid talking cat, that obsessive fan club nerd, a Yakuza dad with a model gun store and a reformed, un-bribeable politician, all of them relying on generic glasses-kun (WHO'S BEEN TO JAIL BEFORE). I mean, he has a lot going for him in that regard.
Also, he does the silliest dance when he finishes someone off.

Akechi for Smash!

Alright guys, we know Nintendo direct announcement are normally distributed. Yoshi name reveal is two standard deviations towards the expected, while Civ 6 is two standard deviations towards the unexpected. Hence, we know the [m - 2S ; m + 2S] interval, and therefore we can mathematically confirm that 95% of the direct has leaked.

There, your final, unquestionable answer.

As I distract myself from the waiting, I completed Mario x Rabbids this morning.

*what is up* with that final boss?! I had to use extra health and it was still a struggle. Holy moly.

It was always clear that Terra would win this poll. But Noctis getting so few votes is depressing.

That game was so frigging good from beginning to end. Yeah that final boss took me a few times lol.

Definitely. Such a great surprise. I bowed out about halfway (?) through the final world though. Bashed my head against a battle one too many times and decided to call it.

This Unannounced Nintendo Direct thread has been fun. Can't wait for the eventual Uncensored Nintendo Direct thread one day.
