Cutie of the Year

[AEMehr]

Seriously, Marth looks so much more awesome and manly than he did in the previous games.

Probably the best character model since Link (or Peach).

 

[Swamp Sensei]

I think he got a bit more feminine actually.

I mean look at this pic!

Okay then, Manly for advertisement.
Feminine in game.

Marth is basically a reverse trap.

 

[KingofPhantoms]

Dem boots man.

 

[NTA]

Omg his hair T_T

He looks a bit feminine in this picture lol

Edit: someone already said that xD

 

[jaytalks]

I think the reliance on his SD redesign has made him more bulky and thus more masculine.

 

[Eternal phoenix Fire]

...Aaand just like that, I'm gay.

 

[~ Valkyrie ~]

My reaction when I saw him

He looks like he finally found the balance between beautiful boy & feminine boy which makes him bishie of the year in my book

I'm so proud of your Marth

 

[Homelessvagrant]

My reaction when I saw him

Your hair really looks like that?

 

[~ Valkyrie ~]

Your hair really looks like that?

Nope, it's my anime hair wig.

 

[Homelessvagrant]

I see.

It looks good on you.

 

[NitrusVirus]

King of the Bishounen right here. I fell in love with his new design. His layered hair, compared to his more flat hairstyle previously, is perfect *u*

 

[~ Valkyrie ~]

If there was one person I wanna fondle face and hair now, it's Marth right now.

 

[Louie G.]

I think he got a bit more feminine actually.

Agreed.

 

[Moon Monkey]

If there was one person I wanna fondle face and hair now, it's Marth right now.

Same...Right after DK.

 

[XTheElegantShadowX]

Edit: someone already said that xD

Peach: "Marth-Senpai, I.... I Lov-"

Marth: "Ye pink, cladded wench, wouldst thou get me a drink, for I am too busy thinking about how swag I am."

Peach: "..."

Marth: "...?"

Peach: "ANYTHING FOR YOU!"

Mario: "</3"

I know how you feel, Peach. I know how you feel. <3333

 

[Clebus]

Well, as the biggest fanboy ever, I gotta say
His hair has always been meh

<3333333333333333333333333333

 

[APC99]

And just like that, Peach's ovaries exploded.

 

[Pheta Ray]

Damn, if only Marth was a living human.

 

[Starcutter]

I've posted this creation of mine on other threads, but it fits best here

 

[victinivcreate1]

Shadow Dragon FTW. Never have I seen a more handsome Marth. XD

 

[midna.]

marth is back in? i nearly cried in happiness, if there was one thing i was waiting on it was marth coming back in ssb4, and he looks so much hotter marth is my favorite character and will always be my favorite character

 

[Cereal Bawks]

It's weird, he looks feminine in some pictures, and looks more masculine in others.

He looks a bit more masculine in this picture than the others:

 

[Madolche ♦ Procione]

10/10

Would f-air.

 

[RhymesWithEmpty]

Feminine or masculine, he's a babe *3*

But, errr, yeah, he looks really good this time around... that character model... them textures... yeaaah >.> *ahem*

 

[FlareHabanero]

This is what happens when you give HD to a bishonen, everyone goes all googly eyes over the sparkles and starts to become lustful.

Especially from men.

 

[KingofPhantoms]

I must say Marth probably has the best model of all the characters so far.

 

[BlitznBurst]

It looks like they've gotten a lot better at anime-styled characters

Can't wait to see how they handle Zelda (who'll hopefully be revealed within a month or two)

 

[Pheta Ray]

If Smash 4 lives up to how gorgeous the characters look now, I can't wait to see how the stages look, much less the music.

 

[Sarki Soliloquy]

I mean, who doesn't love this visual upgrade? They got just about everything right!

I kind of just want to ruffle his hair and tackle him, he looks so pretty!

 

[Pheta Ray]

I want to handle THAT Falchion ifyaknowwhatImean.

 

[midna.]

I want to handle THAT Falchion ifyaknowwhatImean.

you need a job first

 

[Pheta Ray]

you need a job first

My feels when

 

[Sarki Soliloquy]

Everyone's gay for Marth!

 

[midna.]

Everyone's gay for Marth!

well i dont blame them... do you?

 

[Pheta Ray]

And he is Cutie of the Year...

 

[JesseMcCloud]

Is it sad I kinda wish I looked a little more like him...?

 

[Pheta Ray]

Not sad.

We all share that feel.

Well I mean I do, at least. (And I'm already comfortable with who I am [At 16? Get out of here!!])

 

[NonSequtur]

I think the gender confusion comes from, at least in part, the fact that his face is very androgynous (extremely pretty or not ) and so the next characteristic we have to go one is the shoulder/chest area. The pictures that seem more feminine physically are ones where the positioning of his torso doesn't make it as easy to determine the proportions, whereas when we can see his shoulders in a standing pose he seems obviously, physically male. Therefore in game play (swinging the sword) will seem more feminine (ironic, given the standard connotations of swords/violence), whereas promotional art to show off him, not his moves, will show the shoulders/chest and the masculinity.

I just wish I could write this in a less pretentious manner.

Edit: Sorry, just checked the posted dates, and I may have accidentally necro-ed this thread. Though I suppose it matters less, given how few topics there are.

 

[Pheta Ray]

Informative and analytical. I like every word in the above post, as it's all correct.
