Who are some characters in Japanese games you think are autistic? 🤔Tell me down below 👇🏻
Shulk from xenoblade chronicles and futaba from persona 5. I'm actually a bit sad you didn't mention them especially since futaba is one of my favorite characters of all time because she portrayed autstic traits in a very similar way I do. Shulks autstic coding is a bit more subtle but he is socal awkward and shows hyper fixation. One of his character qurks i related to most is getting so caught up in his special interest that he forgets to eat. It's implied this is a pretty regular occurrence. Also early in the game one of the characters says he has no sense of taste. This implies hyposensitivity to taste
@@softnoobgirl73 I HAVE actually talked about Futaba in a different video!
Shadow The Hedgehog. Pay attention to how he interacts with Maria in Dark Beginnings and Amy Rose in The Murder of Sonic
I wonder about Kass the Rito Bard from Breath of the Wild being neurodivergent. Not only is he socially awkward, going so far as to stand near Rito Village and wish he could go see his family, but he has a single-minded focus on his mission of spreading the music. He has a special interest or hyperfixation on the bardic tales of old.
Rui Kamishiro from Project Sekai! His story mainly focus' on the fact that he has been alienated by everyone for being "weird", the only friend he made being a shy girl named Nene, who introduced him to the world of theatre. He once put on a show for his classmates, though it backfired on him and caused him to be avoided and ostracized throughout middle school. He then eventually decided to preform shows by himself, using robots in place of real people before eventually meeting Tsukasa (his eventual troupe mate). Even after the events of his units main story, Rui struggled to make new friends as to most, he was apart of Kamiyamas "Weirdo Combo" (Along with Tsukasa). Eventually after stepping out of his comfort zone, he befriends people in his class and becomes genuinely happy in where he is at!
FIRE EMBLEM MENTION OMG!!! Fire Emblem is one of my biggest special interests so seeing it here makes me so happy!! I definitely hope you’ll make the video discussing autistic characters in the FE series, I could literally watch hours of it…speaking of it, I want to mention my beloved Linhardt as an autistic character that I relate to a lot. As always, amazing video and I hope you’ll make even more discussing Japanese video games!
I looooove Fire Emblem a ton myself, easily one of my favorite series and also one of my biggest special interests! Thank you so much for adding to this discussion 💚💚
I would like to see a video discussing autism in Disney movies/shows. I’m not sure if you’ve already done that. Keep up the amazing work homie.
That would be a great video! Thanks Brady 💚 glad you liked this one
fire emblem is one of my favourite games series also it being turned based means my low motor skills won't hold me back from being able to play so it's great
Same, it's one of my favorite series ever
Eeeeeek!!! I love hearing you talk about my special interest of Ace Attorney! If you do a part two of this, can you talk about Edgeworth’s sister, Franziska von Karma?
Ace Attorney is a special interest of mine too!
Gin ibushi from the game “your turn to die” straight up confirms they have autism although they don’t know all the details
Oh? I've never heard of that, is that a Japanese game also?
@@noahthe0tter yes
Yes, please do one of Fire Emblem! It made me smile to see Miriel as an example. It's been awhile since I've played FE (and I was playing another mage character), so I'd forgotten about her, but I do remember thinking that I could see a fair bit of myself in her and the way she tends to communicate with others.
@@sparklefulpaladin Miriel is a great one, absolutely! Fire Emblem Echoes, which is my favorite game in the series, has a few autistic coded characters too
If I can make my own anime and video games, I'll make some of my characters have autism mostly girls but without using woke bullcrap
Thank you so much for including Edgeworth!
However, I disagree that Phoenix is neurotypical. In fact, I have always pretty strongly headcanoned him as ADHD, due to (among other things) his impulsivity, forgetfulness, disorganization, extremely strong justice sensitivity, and tendency to miss important details (the man forgot to turn over a RECEIPT) that others might easily notice.
Of course, this also could just be my ADHD self projecting heavily onto him, so take this all with a grain of salt.
I'd love to see the autism in fire emblem video and I dont even play fire emblem, also great video as per usual keep it up
Woah woah woah I didn't know you liked MGS and fire emblem I just got 3 houses and MGS 1 lately and I have been thinking about streaming them lately
@@Thegamingtrouge wait really? I didn't know you were unaware I liked these actually 😂 yeah, I love Fire Emblem and Metal Gear Solid

Can't forget about Yusuke, if you look at him with his art, I don't know about you but I'd definitely say it's to the point where you could reasonably call it a special interest, definitely not the best depiction out there, but also, none of these are
What game is Yusuke from?
@@noahthe0tter he's from persona 5
Link is no surprise
His suggestion did surprise me initially, but I do understand of course
