>>4610474It's just a joke about her voice actresses, right?
I've only found one Leda x Mu fanart in existence and it's /d/ material. Shame.
>>4610492As usual the non-canon pairings are more popular, eh?

>>4610492Almost all the artists that were drawing FE yuri back in the day are like barely on their 3rd part 1 route this week. I can count the amount of timeskip design art I've seen on one hand.But honestly I'd rather shit come organically and as a matter of genuine enthusiasm rather than "OMG NEW GACHA GIRL GOTTA DRAW THIS SHIT FOR THE ALGORITHM"

Edelgard winning the first 3H/FW gauntlet is the funniest possible outcome. Just eternally looming over this franchise like Leon in Resident Evil. Forget the sublords, any Fortune's Weave DLC is just going to be Edelgard's ancestor who is visually literally just Edelgard with brown hair killing Cai 200 years after the events of FW during the Adrestian counterattack after Dagda's attempted invasion of Fodlan
Though artists ship Leda and Olympia, Leda really is thinking about Mu first the whole time.In act 2, the very first thing she does after saying she will join the war, is tell Mu she's not coming (because she's too young), and then later at camp I remember Leda's reply to being told to get some food being something like "good, I've got a growing girl to feed" or something like that. Also, I just saw Leda x Olympia paired ending and it's basically "they still can't cook so they eat at restaurants together".
>>4611422>lesbians eat out a lotBravo Yojimbo
>>4611422>Also, I just saw Leda x Olympia paired ending and it's basically "they still can't cook so they eat at restaurants together".Sounds like double income no kids lesbian aunt behavior to me
>>4611551I love this pairing so fucking much actually. And Aswan is only on screen for like a microsecond. Guess it’s back to the fic writing trenches with me.
>tfw watching footage of the Twilight Princess Linkle mod and imagining what could've been.
Leda doesn't look all that impressed with her technique!
>>4611848>>4612150Really? C'mon.
>>4612162Everyone has to start somewhere
>>4611401>3H/FW gauntlet What even is that?All I know is that FW basically said "Edelgard is right about everything", making her route even more of an obvious choice (unless you really want Byleth to be with mommy Rhea).
Speaking of Fortune's Weave pairings though, are there no populat Eshmel pairings? I think Edeleth was the most dominant pairing by a country mile in Three Houses. While I appreciate non-self-insert ships more myself, I just find it odd that nobody brings the protag ships up at all. Like some guy going on about how we only got Leda and some scraps, but there are literally 8 or so yuri pairings for Eshmel.
>>4612196Probably because Eshmel is such a nothing character, and while Byleth was equally silent, the ship was carried by Edelgard’s gigantic crush that was obvious from the get-go and the countless cute moments that followed. Also Byleth somehow manages to come across as an adorably socially awkward weirdo. Eshmel has none of that with any character. So.
>>4612200I see... being outclassed by Byleth is an actual feat. I guess this makes sense when you remember Eshmel was a late stage development tag-on to make the game's stories flow better together, so they are literally just a plot device.Still, this usually doesn't stop fanartist. In fact they prefer projecting onto a void. I think at least in the paired endings I read there was enough good material to work with. Theodora and Leda both actually got some very interesting endings with Eshmel. There is also the fact that she is technically immortal/long lived till she isn't needed anymore, so she is going to outlive almost any lover unless they are a dragon or another divine being. That's the kind of drama that yuri fanfiction thrives on.
>>4612195>What even is that?Voting/popularity tournament thing from the mobile Heroes game, mostly used by shitposters for bragging rights that their fav is the most popular. Infamously swingy due to giving the losing side extra multipliers.
>>4612196It makes sense, Eshmel doesn't exist for most of the game and the four lords themselves are the MCs. I prefer that because I'd rather have pairs between two characters with dialogue.
>>4612200Byleth also actually served as a self insert rather than being gone for the first half (or 80% if you do all routes) of the game
so is fortunes weave actually a good game
>>4612424Yes but it isn't a good *Zelda* game
>>4612424It's great but the next Fire Emblem seriously needs to scale down. People reporting credits rolling on 150-200+ hour playtimes is batshit insane even by 2026 JRPG standards. They are stretched way too thin trying to do too much with little to show for it. 8 routes should have never been anything but a funny idea in the walk across the street from IS to Nintendo HQ for the pitch meeting, to say nothing of the four that actually got made. You have all the busy work of 3H, especially Cai and Theodora whose route gimmicks involve fucking around on the world map, but you don't get the benefits of lots of supports and character interactions for doing the busy work outside of feeding and the theater. It's just a slow grind to getting supports and renown up so you can recruit a character. Characters barely have wide-cast interactions even with the ones that the game just shoves in your face(e.g. Guzran, Catania)Also every Fire Emblem had its dud systems. 3H had master classes of questionable worth but here the growth rates are all over the place to the point people joke about just shoving everybody into brigand just to fix strength growths, mages are more useful as just heal dispensers for physical units, axes serve zero value outside of just making sure someone can swing a hammer once in a while to soften up armor units and you might as well just give any axe user a sword or lance, etc.
>>4612549I don't think every girl slightly older than standard teenage anime MC needs those exaggerated milf proportions but christ she needs a cheeseburger.
>>4612521>its greatdo not ruin my enjoyment of yuri with your shitty takes
>>4613094Is that supposed to be Yu Phas on the right?
>>4613227Pretty sure its supposed to be the blind girl that sothis based her first human body on
>>4612940I would be surprised if alcohol could affect Pearl in a way that would be different from her usual uninhibited id-driven self. Or that Pearl would even feel 8 shots.
>>4612202>being outclassed by Byleth is an actual featDont think it's that deep.A fictional character is ultimately defined by what they do on screen. Byleth got to participate in everything and Eshmel didn't, makes sense Byleth is the more popular shipping wise.
Fortune's Weave DLC announced. The 4 sublords will be getting their routes + new characters (in 2027).I think we can safely disregard Orchel from producing any yuri, so it's up to Anatolia and whatever new characters they add.
>>4613488I think people are gonna be disappointed it doesn't massively expand the game with 48 more chapters. I feel like it's really gonna be more like a 2-3 missions for each sublord. Both 3H and Engage's story DLC only amounted to 6-7 chapters plus Engage doing the Awakening thing of recycling old maps for the nostalgia characters.
>>4613249Putting aside the fact that this is the second time in the row they're using 3H to kick off a different FE's DLC and the 3H CYL duo units just getting revealed, I think there's something beautiful about the fact that the first unit you get after Eshmel in FW is Chinese Edelgard. Their ending of spending the rest of their quasi immortal lives together until their heart cores give out centuries or millennia from now has a nice little resonance with Byleth's heart beating for the first time at the end of CF.
>>4613636The most common reaction I've seen is "lol DLC for a game that's already this huge?" I think most people will be fine if it's not doubling the game.
A second lesbian NPC has hit the obelisk.
>>4613636They should clarify that it is offering. If they said it was four Act 1 routes, I would buy it right now.
>>4613644I do not want scraps...
>>4613846
>>4613846>>4613847I feel like the fact that Leda/Olympia is not a romantic support proves that the writers don't understand yuri. It's such an obvious opposites attract pairing. They can do that for hetshit or yaoi, but somehow they don't comprehend the potential when it's yuri.
>>4613852>Leda/Mu is romanticThey're just too hardcore and prefer loli grooming.
>>4613855They don't have to be mutually exclusive. Just make Leda the dyke magnet who gets all the women.
>>4613856That pretty much confirms no yuri as dyke magnets outside dedicated yuri material are always terminally straight
>>4613859Your lack of knowledge and experience is not my problem.
>>4613855Leda/Mu isn't even grooming. It's anti-grooming. Leda wants Mu to be nothing like her.It's Mu who will not give up and chases Leda until she gives in.
>>4613700You guys just started using the word scraps for fucking anything in a matter of months
>>4613958Wow, good LedaMu art? Won the lottery right there.
any good fw fics you'd recommend yet?

>>4614516While I'm loving what we got out of Legends Z-A I hope Pokemon WW gives its MC a nice girlfriend. Even better if they're something of a serious rival like Marnie is to Gloria, or even better than that if it's someone as fucking intense as Blue was to Red.
>>4614717I don't care about pairings involving silent protagonists anymore, give me more Canari/Gwynns and Jacinthe/Lebannes.
>>4614717>a serious rival like Marnie is to GloriaReminder that Marnie appears a whopping three times and by the third she's become your cheerleader while you storm Macro Cosmos('s amazing dungeon-less elevator) with Hop.
>>4614719You mean made up ships? Not much better.
>>4614786All Pokemon ships are "made up," dumbbutt.
>>4614868Now this is grooming.

>>4616068Given the incest I'm glad Nintendo still ships them
>>4616085It's only cousin incest despite the name so it's cool
>>4616091Their Japanese group name (Sea of Colors) implies no relationship so I guess the twist of them being cousins hits differently depending on the version.

>>4616914Fetish?
>more endings datamined for the DLC characters>Anatolia and Theodora's ending has Anatolia impregnating Theodora>Theodora looking at smartphone.jpeg
>>4616969The game says very clearly in the prologue that mediators are made to be able to reproduce in any situation.
>>4616924True, but she's also a cartoon shadow ghost which has no penis so try not to get that upset about it
>>4616924Is she, though? I thought that was a localisation issue or something.
>>4617254No, you were gaslit
>>4616531>>4616924Look you guys aren't wrong that trannyshit shouldn't be posted but at the same time there's no reason to get this worked up over a retard that will post het sex and rape doujins all over /u/ because some dumbass on danbooru gave the picture the yuri tag.
>>4616946I think he might be thinking of that guy that keeps drawing "yuri but the girls are drowning or at least suffocating," which this isn't, thankfully.
Olympia is so based lesbian queen doesn't want kids doesn't want no man.FE is pretty good at making these types of characters even if they aren't always so keen on giving them actual good paired endings
>>4617402>doesnt want lesbian kidsbruh lol
>>4617402>doesn't want no man.>>4617457>bruh lolYou must be 18 or older to post here.
>>4616969I bet Anatolia still has no ending with Eshmel
>>4617254No, the localisation for the original game CUT OUT the tranny part. Then on the re-release they fixed the translation to restore the original tranny dialogue for him. In Japanese this creature was always a tranny.
>>4617078>>4617366I just hate that the jannies have been seriously slacking about stuff like that. So much futa and trannyshit slips by without getting deleted. This might be a milder case, but if someone posts a man it should be deleted, no exceptions.
>>4617641She does but it's another one of those "and they went their separate ways despite loving each other" with Anatolia going to space while Eshmel remains on Earth kind of endings.Honestly might as well just go with the fpreg one.

Cute official Halloween art with Shiver clinging to the mechanic.
I am starting to wonder if we just have a very biased Olympia/Leda anon here or if they really make up the majority of all FW yuri fanart.
>>4618345
>>4618347
>>4618348
>>4618349
>>4618243It's the second biggest pairing after Dietrich/Fabio, and being in 2nd place to a yaoi pairing is no shame. Even though the online stats don't exist like 3H I wouldn't be surprised if Leda's probably the most played first run lord(though nowhere near as fervently dominant as Edelgard was) and people are rushing her support points with Olympia.>color contrast with their red/blue designs>rivalry from a young age>Olympia is one of the few people Leda tolerates calling her by her real nameIt's fucking catnip.
>>4618426How big is CreekNathan?
>>4618464Right now the stats are like1, powergap, 2, powergap, then there's the moderate sized pairs where you see those guys, and then just the other random combinations that have like token enthusiasm.It's there, I wouldn't be surprised if as more people move into part 2 and 3 it takes the #3 spot definitively. Or maybe the DLC lords will get their momentum.I think we're seeing this sort of weird blunted motion because the avatar is so de-emphasized and you basically don't see them for like dozens/hundreds of hours outside of being a fucking bird, and all the characters have such inconsistent and arbitrary support spread, e.g. Catania bewilderingly has no supports with any of Leda's default group despite being the free recruit and sharing a history with Leda. Or similarly Guzran being the free recruit for Cai's route and also not having any supports there.We're building this out of a tasting menu, not a whole set of entrees.
>>4618596What is Mu thinking here? >I want to eat my breakfast, but I don't want to look away in case they start kissing.
>>4618702Conflicted because she wants to see them kiss but also doesn't because she wants to kiss Leda instead
>>4618426I get why the pairing is predestined to be perfect for shipping, this is why I said before that the devs clearly do not understand what appeals to yuri fans, because this pairing was so goddamn obvioua that them not having a romantic ending together is absurd.I just didn't think it was actually so popular that it is the second biggest pairing in the game (I assume in fanart).Maybe you are right, with self-insert being left out of the first half of the game, you legit avoid the Byleth issue where players cannt divorce themselves from the role and instead they actually look at real characters.>>4618464Why do you need to ask for BL ships ya freak?
>>4618766Please stop spreading homophobic fake statistics so casually.
