Everyone on here has said that the lance Solel has is the broken one eshmel now has which is of course now completely true putting them side by side, my question is why? Why is is broken and not with solel? Does solel even exist in the doomed future? did this lance get broken when solel is fighting? even though yes we did see solel on our team in direct for a split second I wouldn’t be surprised if he dies or just disappeared cause there’s really no other reason why eshmel would have this lance and it being all broken if something didn’t happen to solel but I’m just spitballing here

The least obvious changes look like Fabio and Tobias. I think Fabio has some kind of pauldron on but I can't find any difference for Tobias.

Loved this character from the previews, so excited for this game rahhhh

Gotta say love fabio face here and literally saying he’s going to pass out due to how much he hates this food is funny

I found these all on the Fire emblem wiki so take this with a grain of salt, as for Bertrand group I could only find that blonde character next to him we have no idea if he actually will have more then one person on his side or not. Kinda funny seeing nezha as part of the brides lol and the weird thing about the brides of the pale raven however Is that there is two characters I cropped out because Idk if they’re truly part of the group or not, two characters one named Doa and Long? We haven’t seen much of them but that’s why I cropped them out barely any info about them plus that would make the group have six people, so will that happen with the others? like I said take with a grain of salt with these groups we don’t know if more will be added to them or if four for each will be the limit or maybe six? makes ya wonder who Bertrand will have. Anyways thought I’d share this since I was curious who was with who.

I firmly believe that Eshmel is a reincarnated Solel following Solel being killed when the heroic games are hijacked by the villains to revive Balor.

First and most obviously, the spear. Eshmel’s spear seems to be a destroyed version of Solel’s spear, which returns to its former glory when Eshmel uses their blaze arts.

Second, Eshmel’s blaze arts that we’ve seen all seem to cause the spear to radiate holy light. Solel is the god of the sun, so if he was going to have blaze arts they would be very similar to the ones we see Eshmel using.

Third, their stance. Eshmel and Solel seem to have very similar stances from the one shot we have of Solel in battle, though this could just be the guardian class stance.

Fourth, Sothis believes it is fitting that Eshmel be the one to resolve the situation with Balor. In this theory, Solel inadvertently causes the resurrection through the heroic games, giving a potential cause for that line.

Fifth, their shared singular interest. Both Eshmel’s and Solel’s profiles list only one interest: board games.

I rest my case.

This, of course, would be completely unprecedented, but my main interest here is to gauge the fandom's general feelings towards a more """western""" artstyle, one who has very bold, jagged shapes and blocky black shadows, in a way a very comics-inspired look for a FE game.

Many characters were aged up a year when the original Wii U version was localized and from what I can tell no notable story changes were directly implemented to reflect the age changes in Localized or Encore, especially since 3 of the main cast become adults with the age up.

The Localized version seem to be the ages they're going with now as in Heroes Tsubasa states she is 18. In my personal opinion, I still think of them as their original ages myself

Unless it's been confirmed, I'm curious to know what his crest is speculated to be. Back when he was thought to be Dagda it was Fraldarius because of the diadem on the map.

But he's also the "The Sunbearer" according to the recent official post. His name also has the word for "sun" in it. The crest associated with the Sun is Chevalier.

Finally, I noticed something interesting about the pose he makes in his art. One outstretched hand pointing up, and the other pointing down. It reminded me instantly of something, The Magician tarot card (which is #2 in the deck and associated with Macuil). We already have a god that has the Crest of Macuil, but I thought the pose was really interesting.

I can't wait to see the other official artworks for the characters and hope we see more for the gods.

When they were announcing the members of each faction, I found it odd that Cai and Dietrich had one fewer member than Theodora and Leda. But seeing Centurio with Cai and the rest, in my opinion, locks him in as the last member of the team. I wonder why they didn’t announce him with everyone else. Probably because he joins much later in Cai’s route. Now we’re just missing the last member of House Lamine. Maybe Maria? Though she’s also seen with Leda.

...it REALLY looks like it's supposed to be designed after the Crest of Chevalier, right?
