Thanks again to Manscaped for supporting my channel today! In case you couldn't tell, I had a lot of fun with the ad bit this time around lmao
You should make a video that has all useless smash facts videos in one
No one likes Manscaped lol
12:40 Pjiggles: Everyone's favorite DLC character... Me: He really is my favorite DLC character. You don't have to sarcastically say that because really is my favorite. Instead of spamming B like an ape, I got for the A moves.
Talk about Incineroars shield break animation
What about updating one of your old videos? Like every character's worst move?
those appendages on Lucario's head you were concerned about, they're for sensing aura, so it makes sens ethat as he takes damage and his aura level increases, those will react.
i thought they were just hair and they rise cuz of his power rising dbz style lol
the aura on his hands do get bigger with his power increase
still kinda sus.............
I just call them aura nodes
@@vossboss220 yeah his aura noodles
So… they’re like aura whiskers? That are just attached to the back of his head? Neat.
Steve has a secret animation with his crafting table.
Usually if you don’t have the material to upgrade/repair your tools you can’t use the table. However, if you input craft out of a parry , he will try to craft but spin around and stare at his empty hand all confused. Love all the details they put into these characters lol
HOLY HOLY!!! I can proudly say that I have the two HOTTEST women on this planet as MY GIRLFRIENDS! I am the unprettiest TH-camr ever, but they love me for what's inside! Thanks for listening pre
Why is that the only sign of sentience they gave the character? He doesn't even make his hurt sound effect when hit.
@@Sh1v3rIZAE He does make the hurt sound if he falls from a high enough height, though
@@AxxLAfriku yo mama
@@Sh1v3rIZAE He hasn’t made that sound since like 2011
16:40 I remember seeing the incineroar “shrug” animation very early in the game’s life and I’m surprised that almost nobody talked about this. My google search history is still filled with “Incineroar miss animation”
“Incineroar fail”
“Incineroar funny pose”
“Incineroar funny fail miss pose animation”
Easily the pinnacle of obscure animations in Smash Bros
Incineroar shrugging should be a meme tbh
I saw it on Twitter a year or more ago being shown when the opponent is under the effect of a timer
@@isolated_illustrations better than the DK taunt
I remember seeing this when I was playing a match with only Timers on. And I’m surprised no one talks about this animation. It’s fuckin great lol.
5:13 Corrin is a dragon shifter. So, he partly turns into a dragon during many of his attacks. Those aren't fingers they're dragon toes.
So they’re fingers? Just not a humans
His dragon form is kinda unnerving to begin with, which I suspect was the point from a design perspective.
He can literally do the Star Finger from JoJo bizarre adventure.
Then why do they have thumbs?
@@smollmoth6376 Corrin's dragon form has thumbs. You can look at some pictures. It's kinda unsettling. The hands/feet look somewhere between a lizard foot and a gorilla hand.
I always love watching Snake plug his ears whenever a grenade explodes near him. It’s a such a nice touch that you never get to see since Snake’s always moving whenever a grenade is tossed
But yet he can shoot a rpg very close to himself
Not sure if anyone else mentioned it, but yes, at 5:16, that is just how Corrin's dragon form works, it's not just the devs being lazy. Their dragon form does have 4 sets of hands that are used like feet, instead of just hooves or something. I don't know the reason why, but that's just how it be.
People need to appreciate all the animations they added into ultimate. A good chunk of people dont even realize KRool does a whole front flip for his Dair because they squeeze into 6 frames of animation
only K.Rool mains know
@@elmaionesosexo i actually noticed the first time i played k rool. i also always wanted to know what the heck link’s nair startup was
yea i know lol
K Rool main btw
@@elmaionesosexo And select alpharad viewers
Mii Brawler’s Thrust Uppercut (still called Piston Punch in the files, a la Smash 4) actually consists of two punches, not just one.
You could probably see MegaMans face at 4:45 on the Wii fit stage (the one with the mirror in the background)
Or by using Mario's cape to make him face towards camera without interrupting the animation, if i'm not mistaken
The fact that kirby not only copies snake's grenade, but the ear plug animation as well, is amazing. I guarantee Sakurai had that done
Agree
Wait, where’s Kirby’s ear drums?
@@alphetti4348 *We dont talk about Kirby's ear drums, drums, drums...
We dont talk about their locatioooona*
@@skullerclawerbandicoot7966 HOW DID YOU DO THAT WITHOUT IT GOING *BOLD*
Well yeah, he's the director.
7:44 I always thought the pummel was supposed to be a reference to Static, an ability Pikachu and other electric type Pokémon have where if an opposing Pokémon uses a move that makes physical contact, that's a 30% chance they become paralyzed. So the electricity that’s shown from Pikachu pummeling its opponent is that Static ability.
I've got two that I know of
You can actually see Kirby's "free fall" animation. This is best done by getting Kirby to step on Pac-Man's trampoline when it is red. You almost never see this animation yet the animators decided to give him the same diving animation he has from his own games whenever he falls a long distance.
Also wii fit does push ups if you crouch for a long enough time
They'll also do pull-ups if you hang in a ledge long enough.
Copy MKs ability, use it in the air and ud also get it
Kirby's freefall was also viewable in Smash 4 with a custom up special
A lot of characters are designed in a way to where you can only see their free fall animation by jumping on Pac-Man's trampoline when it's red.
Kirby's Free Fall can actually be activated by a few copy abilities. Ness, Meta Knight, Lucas, and if I remember correctly, Sonic
7:37 Something I noticed while watching this video: If you pay _very close attention_ when Pikachu uses his forward smash, the electricity for the attack actually comes *directly out of his cheeks.* (Side note: The same applies to Pichu.)
The attention to detail in this game is just insane.
yeah, and when joker shoots his gun, the bullets come out of the hole of the gun 😨😨😨😨😨 THE ATTENTION OF DETAIL!!!!!
@@isisisssjsksoxod1851 🙀😳😳😱😱😦😦🤯🤯
@@isisisssjsksoxod1851 bro was just noting a detail calm down
@@Hawthorne204 lol
Although you're being an ass, you'd probably be surprised to find out how often bullets don't line up with gun barrels in games.
11:39
Lucina has a slightly different charging animation for her neutral special Shield Breaker compared to Marth's.
Ryu's and Ken's nspecials are also different I believe
Yeah, Marth charges his sword parallel to his shoulder the whole charge, while Lucina pulls her arm back for the charge
She also leans way over into the Z axis while charging. Seriously go look in a match it's weird
@@debornmc yes, it was shown during the "everyone is here" presentation. Ken's hadoken has the hands sprites to mimick street fighter II turbo
@@YounesLayachi Another difference here is that Ryu's specials only hit once, while Ken's hit multiple times.
16:06 I swear Incineroar is so relatable in this single moment that people don't pay attention to. And his side special
you see this a lot when he does this next to ledge
Hate that the opponent gets to grab ledge and then incin has to recover
I see it more like a "well shit" in the moment... cause this happens all the time
Incineroar shrugging is so funny for some reason. He's just like "look at this guy". I'm so glad he's my main.
One thing I had started doing for every new character since Banjo was go into training mode and turning on the slowest speed just to go through as many of their animations as possible before even trying to land any hits with their moves. There's just so many animation details that go unloved and unnoticed that elevate everyone's personalities and styles, and it feels cool to find things you'd never see during regular game play. Heck I'll even look up idle animations from other fighting games if I can find videos of them just to sit and admire how well made they are
I'm feeling less lonely now 🌅
banjo hammerfists the ground in down-smash
knowing this makes the move feel a lot more impactful
@@Creepo_J Im starting to understand why Banjo was not in Smash 4. He's probably not an easy character to design for.
Steve also has an animation when he tries to craft something but nothing is crafted. I'm not sure how to trigger it, but I've seen it a couple of times and it's funny. Steve just looks at his hand like *wtf*
Hey remember how Samus changes the color of her visor when using her missiles? Well for Samus' other colors actually have a different color visor instead of using blue when using a missile. Here's what color the visor changes to with each color.
Color 2 (Fusion Suit): Yellow
Color 3 (Missile NES Sprite): Yellow
Color 4 (Dark Suit): Green
Color 5 (Gravity Suit): Green
Color 6 (MS-06 Zaku): Slightly lighter Blue
Color 7 (Light Suit): Orange
Color 8 (Power Trooper): Slightly darker Blue (I think)
I just like the funny little crouch walks that some characters have. Luigi’s is so good
Wii fit Trainer's crouch walk is god tier
I love how whenever Pikachu does it, he looks like a hamster
Bowser looks like hes trying to relive his running animation in Melee for his crawl
I like how the Rare logo is actually underneath the flap on Banjo's backpack. I don't think I've ever seen that!
Ik I remember trying to find it since I remember him having it on his original model then seeing it under the flap
Its rare... to see
Another interesting thing about Samus' back boosters is that it makes her final Smash different than Dark Samus'.
The boosters activate as you described, and they have a hitbox, since Dark Samus doesn't have boosters, Dark Samus doesn't have the hitboxes in their Final Smash
Not only that, why would she need those? Samus does to keep her suit on (unlike in Brawl). Dark Samus's body IS the suit.
Holy gosh ... Does this mean that an echo has different hitboxes?
(Chrom is not an echo in my mind)
@@amoura39 ken, pre-patch daisy, Dark Samus, and Chrom share that then.
@@zpellet6326 Oh, gosh ... I forgot Ken was even considered an echo because of how LITERALLY DIFFERENT he is from Ryu.
I also forgot that Daisy ever had the differences.
I guess, as of the current version, that Dark Samus may be the only echo with ONE real difference from their base fighter. Everything is the same EXCEPT for that little hitbox being present in Samus, right?
With Chrom and Ken, there's multiple different attacks or damages from their base fighter (enough that I don't think they should be called echos, personally)
@@amoura39 They just made ken an echo fighter because they wanted more characters to be included in the "show echo fighters" setting .
In sm4sh, when a character takes a mushroom, they'll play an animation which interupt any attacks they might be doing while grabbing the mushroom. There is a different animation for the poison mushroom too. In ultimate, it now just makes the character bigger and doesn't interupt any attack.
I prefered the extra animations tbh.
They had those animations in Brawl too... I always remembered they existed in that game cause they showed Mario's growing animation in the intro
@@PrincessDella I didn't know about Brawl, didn't really play the game lol
I think it's really cool because it adds just more personality to the character
Without the animation leads to more fun, when a mushroom touches a character during a move and the move becomes huge
There's a villager one which is pretty hard to do
You need to hit an up air and hit the ground with the turnips still being in the air if you do It right villager does a little getting up animation
Group? Do you mean the 3 turnips?
I think he means landing during an aerial
@@medecko4394 he mistyped “ground”. Hit the ground with 3 turnips.
@@medecko4394 autocorrect just noticed sorry
@@PassTheSnails no, just autocorrect I didn't really notice it
13:33 i just noticed that the buckle on the backpack is the Rareware logo
I have two secrets "animations":
- Robin's book desing changes depending on the charging of his neutral special (thunder= one lighting, elthunder= double lighting, arcthunder= circle with spark, thoron= lighting arrow)
- Pyra and Mythra's final smash show green light lines on there bodies, with actually happens on Xeno2 when they use a special, it's more visible on level 3 and 4
Not just final smash for Pyra and Mythra. Their ether lines also show up during Mythra's neutral-special and Pyra's side-special since those are the one that correspond to their level 3s. Something specific to Smash is that their ether lines actually change color to match their costume, turning red with their P5 alt, and Pyra's turning blue (but not Mythra's) with their P7 alt.
(Fun fact: if you use these in Xenoblade 2 while they have their swimsuits equipped, you can actually see large spots light up on the backs of their hands where they'd normally be covered by their gauntlets. Not a Smash animation, but a cool Easter egg none the less. A complete map of their ether lines and spots, along with those for a few other Blades, can be found in concept artwork for the game.)
Don’t mention XC2, PJiggles doesn’t like anime
@@mordeymay3739 isn’t XC his favorite game of all time
@@KevSB07 the first game. He hates the second one
@@mordeymay3739 oh interesting
well, in any case i don't think he "doesn't like anime"
11:32 what I think is even more interesting is these blasters have a small lingering hitbox one them during the final smash, and dark samus (who lacks the booster during her final smash) lacks this small hitbox.
13:54 I think I mentioned this back in that same video, but Donkey Kong actually has something similar with his cargo throw. When he holds the fighter over his head, he's grabbing the fighter with the arm that's behind him. However, when DK turns around, he actually quickly switches arms.
The animation is also similar to how he holds barrels in Donkey Kong Country Returns, and Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze. He'll switch which hand is holding the barrel when he turns around.
I see Lucario's "things" as just hair but as he becomes more powerful the aura causes them to float.
No, they are actually some sort of aura sensing/holding things
organs
--hair is a organ--
Oh there's a bunch of funny little animations many people tend to miss, here's just a few:
- Ivysaur, when using the Dragoon, sits rather than stands. It's notable as the sitting position is almost identical to one of the Gen I sprites
- A very specific one, but when Peach uses a battering item, she spins it after swinging
- Sometimes, when Mega Man takes damage, his eyes become fuzzy and static-y
- R.O.B has eyelids, and will actually frown with them in certain attacks, like his throws
- Incineroar has retractable claws that can be seen in it's FSmash
- A few characters, like Piranha Plant and Steve?/Alex/Zombie/Enderman will point forwards after using an assist trophy
- Wario's got a few. With his Nair, Bair and Uair, he has a shocked look upon hitting the ground, but if you use his Dair, he gets briefly stuck in the ground and wiggles a little. Wario also looks shocked when using his DSmash
- Bowser does some kind of weird 'block' motion when doing a dash attack with a battering item
- On the subject of Bowser, his horns briefly enlarge, explaining what the first hitbox of the move is on his horns
- When using either his Hellsweep (Shoryuken input+B) or his Triple Spin Kicks, Kazuya's torso twists in an unnatural way. While this might just seem like a weird oversight to many, it's actually been a thing in Tekken since the beginning
- Not sure how overlooked this one is, but Palutena's landing animation from a full hop has her do a twirl
- For some reason, Daisy smiles while trapped in a Minecart
Being trapped in a minecart and Daisy's just like: _This is fine_
The minecart gives Daisy thoughts of the only franchise she is consistently cared about in, Mario Kart, so she smiles.
Just waiting for a "Please don't break the minecart. The A/C is on, she has water, and is listening to C418" meme with daisy in a minecart instead of a dog in a car
Wario feels like the attacks were done accidentally, his shocked face has no idea what's going on lol
Speaking of shock, all characters on screen will exhibit a shocked face during hero's self destruction
It's a shame his name isn't Steve? since that would be fun
@@YounesLayachi I never noticed because my friends and I are busy making our own shocked faces!
When Lucario gets angry or combative in the movie, the appendages on his head rise. So I always assumed it was like a dog raising its hackles when it’s aggressive. Same type of animalistic instinct.
I love all of the landing aerial animations. I think Byleth's down air has a cool one
Incineroar also has a unique animation when he Alolan Whips an opponent slowed down by the Timer item. Since the rebound off the ropes takes so long he just waits there crouched.
adding on to this but despite the slowdown, you can still get a strong lariat when they're in that distance where you're normally supposed to get lariat (this will cancel his squat before he raises his arms and confused face)
They'll look like they get vacuumed in to his arm
Cloud's limit break (full charge) and hero's "psych up" share the exact same "particle effect" with colour palette swap :D
Fitting considering they come from square & enix respectively, as if their source material is the one reusing the animation
Neat. Did you know almost every character in the game reuses Little Mac’s punch effects for their more basic attacks?
@@peterduprey7286 bruh xD
@@peterduprey7286 I assume you mean the visual effects and attack lines?
The punch "effects" aren't really a mac specific thing necessarily, there's a bunch of different attack types that are shared across characters depending on what type of attack it is. It just so happens that a lot of basic attacks are punches and Little Mac is all punches.
5:00
GO-GO-CORRIN EXTENDO-TOES
I love these nice little details in the animations. You almost never notice them mostly because animations are always cancelled for quick movement. Even though I've known about most of these nice little details, I never knew some of the other things like Snake covering his ears when he's next to a grenade. Would love to see another video like this.
Same, theres alot of animations Im surprised I noticed but not other ppl
3:30 Power dunk's hat animation has been like this really since Terry's first real use of power dunk in game, in fact kof '95 even has this!
Sonic had a different animation when using spindash against a wall in Brawl and 4 but not in Ultimate because he just bounce against it. It is a reference to the classic games when he runs against a wall.
I don't know if it counts as an animation, but in the Kirby games, whenever Kirby lands after a jump, a tiny star pops out.
Similarly in Smash, a tiny star will also pop out when he lands, even after using aerials and a few specials as well!
I think pokemon _is_ a good example of the fact that making so many animations isn't possible with a low amount of development time, the low effort looking animations are because of the fact that they've had to animate over 900 3d models with walking, special attacks, physical attacks, getting hit, etc.
And on the inverse, how much easier it is to give great animations when there’s fewer models to work with. The most recent game, Legends Arceus, had only around 250 or so Pokémon in it, and it had objectively the best animations in the series for those few Pokémon!
@@camo6465 they need to balance it though because if they only have 500 out of 950, the fanbase gets all prissy
@@velvetbutterfly
Yeah. Legends Arceus got away with it because it was very spin-off-esque, which means that it doesn’t need all the Pokémon lol
Lately Gamefreak has just been reusing all the animations and models from previous games. Sword and Shield reusing animations didn't bother me until they claimed they were cutting the pokedex in game to focus on improving animations... only for them to not improve them at all.
@@pebl7735
Legends Arceus was all new animations though
Edit: models too
13:43 he look at you
Some animations do some interesting things when slowed down. For example, during the startup of MK's forward air, in 1/4 he very quickly twirls his sword around. This can be seen more clearly if you combine 1/4 speed with Timer. This doesn't appear to be intentional, though.
who's MK?????
@@orangeslash1667 Meta Knight
@@RogueX1.0 oh
@@orangeslash1667 MKleo
@@sonataavalon6017 In a random online match I fought MKleo's Joker using Banjo Kazooie and won. Yet I still can't compete well in Tournaments.
1:55 the alignment of the planets with the universe’s largest manscaping tool looks sus as hell
8:33 It's rather more likely that he does this since grenades will D E S T R O Y your eardrums when you are to close to the explosion. Snake being very accustomed to war would know this, and Kirby as well since he had been at war with nothing else than eldritch gods. (also he used a dynamite ability in crystal shards so he'd have experience with explosives.
That Snake grenade animation was also a thing back in Brawl. I remember my middle school self being blown away by that animation back in the day
Do you realize the pun that you just made?
If you don’t have enough MP to do Kazap with Hero, then he would an animation where he looks at his sword in confusion or disappointment. #2 if you try to do a down B spell but have no MP, then hero would look at his hand in shock it’s actually hilarious.
I know some of these animations because I love paying attention to these little details. Keep it up PJiggles I can’t wait for part 2
After jumping from ledge and landing on the ground, Palutana will do a spin animation.
Pit/Dark Pit’s spinning Palutena Bow/Silver Bow when they shield shift. Just shield and start shifting to see!
I’d also like to honorably mention all the times a character spins so quickly during an attack animation that you don’t notice it. Examples include Ganon’s neutral air, and pit’s forward and upsmash.
Also, please don’t slow down and look at pit’s back air. Just don’t.
Whats wrong with Pit's back air?
Corrin's limbs extend, and likely look the same, because they're his dragon form, and in the dragon form all 4 limbs are identical similar to many quadrupeds, it's not like it's some weapon or spell, their body morphs into that shape,
Why does the dragon have thumbs?
@@Liggliluff same reason cats have one claw that's offset to the side? Or since it's magic maybe it's a remnant of the opposable thumbs a human has
Toon Link has a little afraid/worrying animation when tossing a bomb while standing still, I think it also happens while throwing it in the air. He’s a cartoon little boy after all. I also love the animations that happen when failing to pull a third bomb or not having the boomerang available.
4:40 BOI!
Snake is probably more realistically getting tinnitus from the explosion. Something that happens in mgs from snake eater onwards when you’re too close to an explosion and it will become near impossible to hear anything but a ringing noise for a short time.
One of my favorite weird animations is when you footstool Squirtle while he's doing side special, you just stun him and he gets all confused. Also the funny hit animation you get when you try to footstool a crouching Piranha Plant and he just bites you.
11:40 Lucina also has a different animation for her neutral special, and it also translates to Kirby's copy ability
13:19 I never even noticed that the RareWare symbol is on the backpack holy hell
You could try to see megaman’s expression when failing backwards neutral B in wii fit trainer’s stage, there’s a big mirror on the back.
If you do another part, here is something I mentioned in a video before:
I just want to mention that ryu's opponent's have certain animations when getting hit by Shin-Shroyiu.
( hit in the stomach makes them "crumble" forward. Then they get hit under the chin and after that their neck snaps back)
As far as I know this is unique to only him
All humanoid character have this animation only for his final smash
(but only in Ultimate)
Ridley's tail sweetspot can crumple as well, but it is on Ridley and on an extremely small sweetspot, so you don't see it often.
I believe it also shows up in Stamina if you KO an opponent without knockback (i.e. Fox's laser).
12:46 I would like to take the time to mention that this man just ran full force out of the screen with Kazooie...that is all...lol
those landing animations I didnt know about just makes me give even more respect to the animators. cause dang they Really love their details.
I believe with corrin's "spears" they're actually them shifting that particular hand/foot to dragon form, as if you look very closely to said form, both sets of legs end in a hand-shaped foot.
It's always a monumental event whenever pjiggles uploads
4:28 I would have loved it if you had sneaked a Sonic in there!
Ness also has a cool secret animation when you lose against him online
The animation of you slamming your switch to the floor.
Haha
C o m e d y
Pjiggles is the true chad by highlighting and showing off the smash teams hard work in smash bros that gets unnoticed Yes the face of a chad is a jigglypuff
(5:20) The thumb, and also because it's black. The fingers have gloves, but the toes does not.
6:30 T'wasn't awkward until you made it awkward, pal. ;)
3:30
I am pretty sure its because his hat would fly away with the brim in the front, since he is dropping really quick.
Turning it around negates the air resistance i think.
11:56
That also applies to Kirby's copied version of Villager & Isabelle's Pocket animations.
My favorite animation is the one that Kazuya does when he uses his Roundhouse to Triple Spin Kicks, as the weird animation quirk is a 1 for 1 recreation of how it looks in the Tekken games.
When Link does his taunts when putting his sword back in his sheath, he pulls it down, because the original animation is theoretically impossible (you can't put a long sword on your back by letting it slide vertically, you'll have to have very long arms), so that animation made that possible
14:14 what if Ice Climbers get caped? How does their hammer swap then?
i noticed that sephiroth switches to his right hand during that big swing at the beginning of his final smash. this isn't the first time sephiroth has officially used his right hand. it's been shown in the original game, movie, concept art, and even the remake. i love this little detail because it references something that many fans of final fantasy 7 missed.
oh and here's something else about sephiroth that's a bit more known, but also easy to miss. sephiroth snaps his fingers when doing his neutral air attack
5:26 “This is probably why Corrin is barefoot all the time”
As a certified Fates freak 7 days a week etc. I can confirm that that’s not the reason it’s just that Fates just tends to have extremely horny character and class design
6:45 those things are what he uses to detect aura lmfao
I love Lucas's animation for landing during neutral air, i just think it looks nice, it's especially fun to spam, makes for a good taunt
Plz do more on this topic, I've been waiting since the games release for someone to talk about these great animations, there where a few i didn't know about so that was super fun, my suggestion for part 2 (plz do more, i beg) is K.rool does a front flip when in his down air or sonic doing a backflip when he runs into a wall
There’s an animation error with Dedede where if you up tilt and move forward after, the hammer will spin around
The pits will separate and reattach their blades depending on which attack you just used (one double sided bow/blade or two blades, one in each hand) and it will remain that way for all animations until you use a move that changes it.
4:00 I actually did know this, I noticed it in one of the trailers for the game before it came out
i know its a sponsor but I laughed too hard at this 2:10
Try the Megaman saw backthrow on the wii fit stage
Because it has the mirror
Or mario cape
R.O.B. has a lot of cool animations.
1. His standing and crouched idles reference the idea that he's an aging robot. When standing, he keeps dozing off, and when crouching, he occasionally re-adjusts his head.
2. The original R.O.B. had 5 accessory slots, and all of them are used in Smash. Obviously, one of them is used for his gyro spinner (which, if you slow down the animation, it turns out that he stores in a flattened state under his base), but the others contain these "flight fins" which R.O.B. deploys every time he uses his Up Special until he lands on solid ground. These flight fins will remained deployed even if he's grabbing onto the ledge after using Up Special.
3. After he gets knocked to the ground, his get-up animation has him extending his arms over his head and doing a horizontal roll. During this animation, he actually shuts his eyes. I think this was meant to convey that he's not sure this horizontal roll will really work or something? It's a fun detail, though, and you can't really see it without using a frame-by-frame.
Small note about Samus' backburners in her Final Smash- they have a very small hitbox. It's not super impactful, but if you miss it might catch an opponent charging a smash attack too close. As Dark Samus lacks the burners, she also lacks the hitbox
16:41 incineroar doing poses while sora gets sent to the underworld is a hilarious image.
The most secret animation is the one where I finally win
5:59 OMG YOU DIDN'T KNOW THAT? ^^;;;;
these tiny animations make me smile, the small attention to detail really shoes how much love the folks at Sora put into the game
4:45 you need to have Mega Man fail to throw the gear backwards while turning him around with Mario’s cape/Mii Down B to try and catch a glimpse of his face.
5:37 This is my best part of the whole video.. anyways happy switch 5th years anniversary
There's a lot of effort in the game
I like it
Jeez.. PJiggles, the "dreadlocks" on Lucario rising are just a reference to Shounen anime when a character "powers up", their hair tends to rise, as if the power is so great that's like air pushing off of them causing hair and clothing to rise and sort of flail around, especially if its like DBZ/S style...
A little detail I love
The back air animation of Fox usually show him do a kick, then he hit the ground
However, due to the fact he have the strongest gravity, if you the back air close to the ground he will tumble pretty hard
If you want to skip sponser than go to this timestamp 2:40
15:25 makes me so happy and I don't know why
The way Luigi spins during a misfire vs not spinning normally kinda reminds me of how bullets used to work in guns.
In the early days of firearms, rifle barrels were often smooth on the inside and out. It's part of what made muskets rather difficult to use in comparison to more modern rifles. Later (and still to this day) most guns were made with barrels that had spiraled grooves on the inside, which caused bullets to spin as they were fired. The spinning made the bullets fly straighter.
9:31 What is going on with the dog's right ear?
What the dog doin'?
Nintendo just knows how to have atmosphere and life.
GOAT is back
When greninja picks up a battering item like a laser sword, his f-smash animation is the same as his normal one, whereas all other characters have unique animations.
Sheik’s attack animations with battering items are also very unique. She holds the weapon in a reverse grip with jab and f-tilt and does a little twirl during her f-smash
[7:25] I don’t think Pikachu’s cheeks glow when using more physical attacks since he has the ability static which means anything that comes in contact with him gets electrocuted. He only needs to use his cheek reserves when shooting out electricity.
