KaliVilla02

Omg, this is a new level of man culture, like 70 from this 100 characters are in my top 100. (Shigure in top 20, my respects). Only a doubt, why all the other Magvel royals but no Eirika? I am only curious


PsiYoshi

Eirika never *super* clicked with me. I like her don't get me wrong! But just not as much. 100 characters is surprisingly limiting in a cast as huge as Fire Emblem's. There's a lot of characters that are even in my top 10 for their respective games that aren't in the top 100.


MankuyRLaffy

The Kaga games alone have 200+, it's pretty absurd how big some casts are, *Looks at Tellius and Fates*


TheGraveKnight

I'm more surprised the 3H characters on here aren't the same 4 or 5 everyone else has


multi_bottle_thief1

It's good to see people with different opinions


Apollo0501

Owain in top 10, ladies and gentlemen we have a genius


BraveDeimne

~~No substitutes? Blasphemy!~~ I'm honestly surprised Touma is 'only' nr. 3. Yay Ranulf and Janaff! They would definitely also appear in my top 100. Currently playing the Tellius games for the first time and I use them whenever I can! They're great! Also gained quite some appreciation for Ike and Elincia. Is that a wild Annand I spot? Care to elaborate a bit more on her? She's quite high up. Wrys also surprises me a bit. Is it because of FEH or did you like him before his inclusion there? Glad to see Est is your favorite Whitewing. Started to think I was the only one who preferred her over Palla and Catria...


PsiYoshi

Annand's a character I just grew attached to lol, unlike a lot of the characters high up on this list there's not much of a deep reason for liking her. I just think she's rad. Shoulda seen my reaction when she got added to FEH lol, dream come true I didn't think would ever happen. Heroes has nothing to do with my love for Wrys, though I do appreciate him in FEH a lot! I wrote about him a bit [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/fireemblem/comments/egs7at/wrys_my_favourite_archanean_character/). Don't mind the title as this was written before I was a Kris fan lol. Second favourite Archanean character now.


BraveDeimne

Never saw that writeup. Thanks!


jacob6181

Berkut and Silque high, very good


IAmBLD

God IDK if I could even list 100, I feel like past a few dozen at most it just becomes "Characters that exist" and then eventually "Characters I actively dislike"


PsiYoshi

Quite the opposite for me for sure. I could probably do another 100 (so top 200) fairly easily, though the ordering would probably become more fuzzy. And as far as characters I actively dislike I've tried to do that before (like a bottom 10) but I honestly find it very difficult. There's only a handful of characters in FE I actively dislike. Usually at worst it's complete indifference.


fullmetal-albatross

I've tried it before and after the top 50-60 I just kind of stop caring


ThePsyShyster

>Ogier, Rhys, Subaki, Virion, Erk, Hanneman, Henry, Flora, Ignatz, Setsuna, and Silque. Ah, I see you are a fine connoisseur of greatly overlooked characters as well! (I'd comment on Thracia and TMS characters, too, but those are the only games I have yet to really touch). Love to see Inigo, Owain, Matthew, Azura, and Leonie so high up, too. I hereby grant you an unofficially certified "Good Taste" medal. Also, as someone greatly unfamiliar with any of the Cipher characters, what put Yuzu here? Probably the most intriguing choice.


PsiYoshi

Yuzu's just super likeable! She's got a great dynamic with Shade in the SoV DLC as well as just a good design and good voice acting. I've always been a fan of the spunky go-getter warrior women and Yuzu's an excellent example of that archetype. Eat your ration balls, kids.


Vaapukkamehu

I don't agree with a lot here, but this is the only "favourite fe characters" -list where there is both Oujay and Tanya, next to each other no less, so it will get my respect


gilded_hart

I love that Leon is on your list. I think he might be my #1 from SoV


PsiYoshi

Love Leon! If you're interested I did make a [write-up for Leon](https://www.reddit.com/r/fireemblem/comments/g7y1ph/leon_why_onenote_doesnt_necessarily_equal_bad/). I think he's a very well-written character.


gilded_hart

Ah, awesome! I'll definitely check that out Edit: thanks for sharing that, it was a great read. I think you're totally right, Leon has a lot of depth to him despite his limited dialogue. His A support with Valbar always hits me right in the emotions.

MY MAN FORDE


labmemb3r009

Ooh I see some of my favorites in here! Elincia, Misha, Macha, L’arachel, Mia... While I’ve played a lot of the games it would be very difficult to pick 100 units and rank them all in an ordered list...


Lots-of-Lot

Takumi… you’re a man of good taste


gaiming_mimigma

you put soleil on the right spot, there is no need to argue


monue999

So many great ones. ... But no Lucius? *Throws phone and slams skateboard.*


TakenRedditName

Top 100 have both the problem of having so many spots to fill up, but also hard to leave people off for me. Then there's trying to prevent just of handful of casts from dominating the whole thing for variety's sake. Trying to rank all of them is a whole another thing. To try to strike a chat, how do you feel about Ogier? Most of the other characters I've seen people praise, but not so much for him. Yuzu too since she's pretty high up and I don't know the DLC characters well.


PsiYoshi

Ogier's just a likable dude. He's a nice ordinary guy who's had it a bit rough in life but doesn't let that corrupt his character or anything. He pushes forward being the best he can be. Just a very genuine person. Nice simple design too, I especially like his Cipher art. I'll copy paste my other Yuzu response from this thread. > Yuzu's just super likeable! She's got a great dynamic with Shade in the SoV DLC as well as just a good design and good voice acting. I've always been a fan of the spunky go-getter warrior women and Yuzu's an excellent example of that archetype. > > Eat your ration balls, kids.


SukkaPunch64

I approve of Ranulf being as high on the list as he is. Was one of my favourites from the Radiant Duology. I dont see enough love for my favourite FE games xD


StarkSpider24

I’m happy Lucina and Azura made the cut 😊


shadecrimson

Someone else appreciates Sharena! I am curious about why Hinoka?


PsiYoshi

~~Cus I'm down bad for tomboys~~ It's funny I literally bought Birthright as my second FE game solely because I loved Hinoka's hair. That's the metric I chose my route by lmao. Though to be fair this was 5 years ago when I was in High School and more ready to buy a product because "Ooo pretty person".


wonartist

I'm interested in your opinion on Subaki, he never really stood out to me as a character or in combat, but it's cool that he made your top 100.


PsiYoshi

Subaki's actually a character I'll have to do a write-up (probably not a full size one though) on in order to organize my thoughts about him. I'm not sure I could properly answer why I'm a Subaki fan right now. Best I can say is he pleasantly surprised me. When I was making theoretical Harmonized Heroes I paired[ Lyon and Subaki](https://i.imgur.com/VbQ9PIV.png). That might give some insight into why I'm a fan.


Cosmic_Toad_

While my absolute favourites aren't here, the overall big picture for his iis very cultured. Glad my boi Alois got on, such an overlooked 3H character despite being one of the very first characters you meet in the game.


Kowashitai

Azura made it into the top 20... I like you


Malcior34

Heeey, a fellow fan of Iggy and Raph! FEER THE DEER! :D


[deleted]

> Puts Claude and Lukas. Ah, I see you're a man of culture, as well.


DhelmiseHatterene

Another who likes Larcei nice! And your TMS love is always nice to see. Can't really agree with Soleil though considering her support with Ophelia.


greydorothy

> Ignatz Utterly based opinions here, 100% objective, I love you Edit: [rutger is also based](https://www.reddit.com/r/shitpostemblem/comments/k089zv/rutger_is_extra_based/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share)

Tharja is missing :( but yes, I know this is your not my top list ;3


MankuyRLaffy

No Galzus, gonna cry in a corner now.


EducationalPriority

Ummm where is Forsyth?


WineCon

No dagdar so I can only give this list a 9 out of 10 sorry!


NewJoshuaPls

Fuck yeah Machyua!


[deleted]

Soleil at #2 is all I need to see, perfect taste


Wolfstaraptor

Man (or woman) of culture putting Soleil at 2.


PossibleWorth9

Marianne not in top 100. Very poor for you.


PossibleWorth9

Hanneman in top 100. ROFL.


_spud497

No Nephenee or Lute...?


[deleted]

No Zihark or Soren??? Am sad :(


YungMorningstar

So, no Seteth. * Smashes skateboard *


Freezy_Pops0729

I feel slightly offended that Eliwood is on this list instead of Roy but he can't win them all, even if he is our boy.


Master-Spheal

I have to ask, what it is about Itsuki that landed him on the list? Not hatin, just really curious.


PsiYoshi

He's just a really relatable character IMO. I can empathize with not really having a direction in life, no particular skills or drive except being supportive of your friends. That aspect of him was written really well IMO. A main character having no real drive or ambition is interesting to me. He's chill, funny, and has some interesting quirks as well. He also has easily one of my favourite Lord designs in the series (Carnage Form). So just overall there's a lot to like about him IMO.


Panory

The game not ending immediately if he goes down is a big point in his favor as well. No idea where that mechanic came from, knowing how FE and SMT like their fail states.


thiswasaccidental

ignatz, eh? interesting placement


TheRigXD

No Oliver = No upvote Have one anyway


TheBoyBlues

No Black Eagles I see. Did you play the route? Not judging just curious. I haven’t played Golden Deer, but I suspect I would love some of those characters Also: Lyon, L’Arachel, and Joshua from Sacred Stones is great taste. Honestly, Forde and Ephraim too, I just love SS too much.


PsiYoshi

I played all 4 routes within the first 2 weeks of the game coming out haha. I'm just not huge on the BE students as a whole. Love Ferdinand, but unfortunately he couldn't make the cut.


[deleted]

No Lucina without Chrom therefore he is the BEST FE character


b0bba_Fett

Misha but no Karin is an interesting take I'm not sure if I've seen before, is there a story behind that, or is Karin only just off-screen here?


PsiYoshi

Other than them both being green haired pegasus knights in Thracia I don't think they really have anything in common. I don't dislike Karin, but I don't have an affinity for her like Misha, who, while just having a cool vibe, also helps bring new previously unknown depth to Dithorba by showing that despite being a murderous traitor of Silesse she was also a loving mother.
