I'm going to defend each one of these poor saps. Roger: So like, Roger is already risking his life to fight in a war, so he might as well be horny while doing so. Not to mention if things pan out well, he just might score Caeda in all this. Iuchar: So like, Iuchar is already risking his life to fight in a war, so he might as well be horny while doing so. Not to mention if things pan out well, he just might score Larcei in all this. Azel: I think it's more like Azel heard that the girl he likes got kidnapped and her castle got taken over so he feels compelled to spring into action so save the girl he loves. In the FE4 manga, he finds a higher reason for fighting than just horny, but that probably doesn't count. Besides, he's going to be by Sigurd's side the whole time so there's no way that anything will go wrong.....right? Lex: Azel being a footlocked mage mean that he's totally not going to make it all by himself. I'm sure Lex realized this. Homer: I can't defend this dude if I'm being honest. I guess he's making it up to Nanna for being horny. Geitz: Geitz is clearly a thrillseeker. There's a lot of other characters who love to fight for the hell of it, and Geitz is one of those dudes. Stefan: It may not be conveyed well, but I think that wanting to create your own society of branded people is a noble enough cause. Why join Ike's army though? It may just be that living in the desert doesn't help him find more branded people all that much (aside from the ones he's already with) and that seeing an army that has both beorc and laguz working together may help improve his chances. Oliver: So like, Oliver is already risking his life to fight in a war, so he might as well be horny while doing so. Not to mention if things pan out well, he just might score a bird in all this. Frost/Malice/Dice: Good things come to those who wait. PoR NPC: Green is kind of a gross color anyways.

Dice and Malice join in BSE due to not really liking the thief’s and like your groups money more (aka bribe em like Beowulf) Frost hates the Macedonian commander for attacking civilians and wants to leave, he notices Minerva and her white wings are close and waits till she is near for his own life’s sake, then joins her

This vid has convinced me that I need to play tellius. ike going "when did you get here?" And "can you rejoin the enemy?" Is just too funny

Marcia from PoR. Ike saves her from pirates, and instead of thanking him with either gold or an offer of a fun night sampling the goods he saved, like one might expect, she goes home writes a letter to leave on her bed and deserts her posting as a well paid pegasi knight, stealing a pegasus in the process, to join up with Ike's not very well off mercenary band. With that kind of track record, I expected her to still be with Ike's mercenaries when I first played the sequel game, Radiant Dawn, because no sane leader of a country would hire a former knight with a track record of desertion and theft, and it was his mercenaries she'd abandoned her post to go serve with.

One could, if they're very stretchy with the meaning of words, say that there was a hint of a very vague offer for such, but it's so much of a stretch, you're likely to tear something trying.

One of my absolute favorite recruitments in Fire Emblem is Caeda recruiting Lorenz (not the Golden Deer one) in Shadow Dragon. She completely flips the Camus archetype's typical ideology on its head and she succeeds in showing him that regardless of one's loyalty to a country and its ruler, it's the protection of that country's *people* that truly matters.

You know you got a fun character when the protagonist straight up rejects them. Fun video though! I recently beat Blazing Sword and when Geitz showed up and was like “who is right in this battle? Eh, it doesn’t matter. These dudes are closest to me so I’ll just join them.” I was like “really man?”

What really makes Roger's recruitment all the better is when he talks with Marth Marth just listens to him talking about Ceada and is thinking, 'nobody will be mad if I accidentally kill him'

I wanna defend Roger a bit, cause, Caeda is basically threatening him. The leader of the enemy country flies over, parks in front of him, they chat, and then she just leaves all friendly. Either he takes a swing at her or this looks suspicious af. He either rolls with the face turn, or gets killed by his own army.

Oliver may not have a redemption arc, but of all the Senators, he's the only one with even a single redeemable quality, and ultimately, seems more insane then malicious, since his love for beauty is so genuine.

Like Ingrid shouldn't be able to join Edelgard but Sylvain and Felix can make interesting "if" scenarios in CF. If someone's goal is opposing Edelgard, it's more logical to join Alliance instead of Faerghus because not only they're the strongest group against Edelgard, but also they're the most neutral group, yet Faerghus and Church both are almost beaten and defeated.

I feel the "I betrayed my country and joined this army because of you professor" of 3H should've gotten a honorable mention. Especially for Azure Moon and arguably Crimson Flower. [Long comment awaits] In Azure Moon you have an army of an almost beaten country with a King in a very bad mental state, he openly states that he wants revenge and doesn't care about his comrades, he's also violent. It completely makes sense for people who have personal connection to him to support him (even though wanting him to be a king is still weird), or even for people who have grown in Faerghus' overall not-very-good culture; but I can't see why anyone from the Empire or Alliance to join him besides "muh professor". Ferdinand critizes Dimitri and believes he's not suitable to be a ruler; Linhardt and Hilda doesn't believe in dying for the other person in war even though it's a big culture in Faerghus. Alliance is overall the strongest anti-empire group in all routes after timeskip, so if anyone who want to oppose Edelgard, they would stay there or join them... but well professor. Crimson Flower is a weird case, Edelgard's methods are quite questionable, she's basically a conquerer, but still she has her own goals which lots of the cast can sympathize with her. It would be a interesting what-if situation for Sylvain, Felix, Marianne or Ashe to join her, but then there is Ingrid which her personality is being knight of Faerghus, why the hell she's doing here. At least Lysithea and Lorenz were handled well and there is also some limitations for churchies for join, but still with all of the "muh professor"s it left a bad taste in my mouth.

(It's fairly similar to the DS Shin Monshou versions, though; Frost was being blackmailed by the enemy in the first place and was just waiting for Minerva to get close to change sides, while Dice and Malice are willing to take Rickard's offer, the specifics changing a bit between versions.)

This was a fun video, reminds me of the top 10 Fire Emblem beards

Omg, I forgot about these. These are hilarious.

How about off-sceen Soren who joined Ike cause he gave him a sandwich

The fact that Stefan's reason for joining isn't clear until Radiant Dawn isn't surprising because it seems that the Intelligent Systems weren't sure how much content they were initially going to put into Path of Radiance. Heck, the Black Knight and Zelgius' stats are set to be the same in the first game even though it wouldn't be revealed that they were the same person until the second.

It is really fun to recruit Oliver and have him support with Reyson

It would be a double dose of bad for him if you *SPOILER ALERT* Got the double ending where Naesala marries Leanne.

@@KINGD353 Well first of all, compare how they look. Naesala very attractive, while Oliver is "the pinnacle of beauty". Second of all, Oliver has a lot less of a reasonable motivation. Obviously Naesala is forced into a lot of his RD actions by the plot contract, but his goal of doing everything for Kilvas no matter how cruel/wrong is understandable. He is a lot less selfish than Oliver. Also a big difference between Leanne/Naesala and Oliver/any Heron is that Leanne actually seems to care for Naesala and he for her, as shown by his PoR actions (he betrays Petrine not for Reyson but for her). Where as Oliver would either put his heron in a golden cage or do other questionable stuff. But I think it's mostly because Oliver is hot and people are jealous...

"...And because he (Raffiel) is beautiful, he MUST be protected" See? This is how cringie weebs are whenever they say a character (usually of the "loli" kind) should be "protected" unironically.

Caeda brings Marth a literal simp army. That's just incredible.

Not the way I though this was going to go. Great video but I would also like a look at the ridiculous conditions for recruitment. (Looking at you Xavier)

I would love to see a follow up to this, there's so many more and I want to see if Meg makes the cut! :P

So basically half are simps the other half well I really don’t how to summarize them but I that’s the point

Sheeda's method of flying in the face of some male simp and starting some stupid conversation about love is hilarious. New Mystery even lampshades it, with Kris getting increasingly alarmed at how Sheeda mention them in the base conversations what she said to those units to recruit them.

I hope this becomes a series

You forgot the best part about Homer. On top of his ridiculous recruitment, he can actually become a great unit with very little effort. FE5 Mage + Paragon = Easily-trainable unit with insane promotion bonuses. He comes with a high Light Magic rank in the very same Chapter where you get Nosferatu (which is a 60-use Light tome in Thracia). And he can also use Anima Magic without issue. That combined with his bonkers 5 FCM means that if he doubles something, it's definitely dead. He's basically Asbel 2, but older and hornier and a bi icon.

I don't think I want him of all people to bi the icon of Fire Emblem's bisexuals 😂 (although there are a lot of them tbh)

Oliver is genuinely the hottest, most best character in the entire series.Wdym lmao

I remember suggesting this idea to you on Twitter once. Thank you for making a video about this topic since the Stefan and Shinon recruitments in PoR made me scratch my head. I know your video is about dumb story reasons, but the Shinon recruitment is so unintuitive from a gameplay standpoint.

What music did you use in this video Ghast? Nice video! Keep up the good work!
