yes this has spoilers for XC1, XC2, XC3, and XC3: Future Redeemed (and was reuploaded bc i missed a couple)

yes i left out the references to their old arts bc this is references to OTHER characters. the art names are obvious enough to find the references to their younger selves

shout out nia for teaching everyone how to strike a cute/cool/sexy pose during combat so the enemy has something nicer to look at before they get vaporized, and you know it's nia who started it bc her pose takes the longest to get through





thoughts of a nerd below:



i think it's funny how out of 11 attacks each of the boys have (6 arts, talent art, unity combo parts 1 and 2, 2 auto attacks), there's only 2 and a half seemingly original ones, one of which is a potential reference to the best boy (Rex Unity P2/ULFS Max, the timing of each hit is nearly frame perfect where Rex hits during Zeke's hitstop if the second is aligned), another is the second half of an attack that references two characters but is also a potential reference (Monado Rage/XC1 Stream Edge, not shown since it's a Shulk-to-Shulk reference and also has less potential than the ULFS one), and the last is just a new animation for an old attack that's actually just the left-handed version of the basic sword and shield jump attack (Monado Purge/XC3 Falcon Swoop/Extended Slash/XC3 Mighty Beat)
