I know it's reasonable to be critical, but all this talk about Metroid Prime 4 feels like this to me

(I'm not a Metroid fan)

Congrats to Intelligent Systems for shadowdropping a mobile game that somehow manages to be 100x worse than FEH

I had this analysis chart of Lilina's outfit symbol throughout Fire Emblem that I was stalling work on, so I finally got to finish it (I should be sleeping rn). Feel free to go over it I guess.

(See alt text for a much easier to read version)

Lilina Symbol Analysis

Tried to complie as much variants of this symbol as possible. Not all of them are here, so take it with a grain of salt.

Original Symbol

Appears the most often.
One large circle and one small oval with a line (probably a sword?)
going through both, forming an "eye". Two arches on top and two arches on the bottom.

Appearances of this symbol:

Binding Blade Anthology Manga
Binding Blade Yonkoma Gag Mangas
Champion's Sword
Cipher
100 Songs of Heroes
Rearmed Lilina (Fire Emblem Heroes) (I'm a little devastated Rearmed Lilina didn't use the sword variant of it, but it's cool they brought the OG one back here)

Valentines/Legendary Lilina (Fire Emblem Heroes)

My favorite variant of this symbol. It's almost the exact same as the original, but the line has a hilt, making it resemble a sword.
(I deliberately left Bride Lilina out since I do not like that one sorry)

Regular Lilina (Fire Emblem Heroes)

Has a cross at the bottom instead of arches like the original symbol. Only ever used on Regular Lilina. (Resplendent version uses a completely different symbol). I personally don't like this one too much because I can't tell if it's forming the eye or not. It's really inconsistent between Reg!Lilina's art.

Scale Figure

Only used on Lilina's Scale Figure design. It's a lot more detailed than the original symbol, with the addition of two smaller archs on top. I really wish they use this symbol on Lilina again cause it looks so cool on her.

Legendary Lilina's boots (Fire Emblem Heroes)

This one was used on L!Lilina's outfit alongside the sword variant. The lower arches are smaller, and the top arches are missing. The top of the line is made shorter here as well. The bottom part is pointed like an arrow, and there's tail feathers on it? No idea what it's supposed to be.

Been a while since I drew Lilina in her legendary outfit.

Also, went with a different art style for this piece and I'm starting to like this one more.
