I like Lucas. Part of that is because I loved and beaten his game, Mother 3. Another part of that is because he's honestly one of the cutest characters in Smash. Combine his looks with what he has to go through in his own game, and don't you think he deserves a big hug?

But I didn't think he'd make a comeback in Smash 4 if he wasn't confirmed for it earlier on. I recently picked up some info that the Mother/Earthbound series' Japanese fanbase doesn't like Mother 3 as much as we Americans do. It's mainly due to Mother 3's much darker story, and the fact that it doesn't take place in any urban environments like Mother 1/Earthbound Beginnings (Zero) and Mother 2/Earthbound took pride in.

But similar to Roy, most of Lucas' Japanese fanbase came from Smash's own, rather than the one from his own series. From what I've seen of all the adorable fanart on Pixiv, however, he DOES have a huge following within the Japanese Mother fandom, itself.

--------------

For his Smash 4 appearance, I feel like Lucas got both buffed and nerfed at the same time. I can't really explain it, yet. Maybe I need to get used to using him in Smash 4, more.

Congrats to the Mother series keeping both of its reps in Smash 4! With its second game on the Wii U Virtual Console and its first game making it in later on, could this mean that the third game finally has a chance to (official) make it across the border?!
