This is why Fire Emblem's story telling is so fascinating. On its own, Azelle's story is rather basic, a young, unconfident bastard noble with a crush grows more confident and competent as he gets stronger, and most likely ends up in a relationship with someone. Fire emblem makes it special, because you're the one who sets Azelle on that path. You decide to put in the effort to train him, and see him become a useful ally. You decide whether he gets with the woman he's been crushing on or finds that his love lied in his childhood friend. It makes these stories feel all the more grand, and add to the great narrative that is FE 4.
This is nice to look at him in a different light. Honestly he was my "let's make Tyltiu's children useful" father. Since they had a convo and figured their paring is canon too so, all the more to it. Arthur and Tine are monsters, the Fala and Tordo blood combo it's too good for mages.
I think azel has an issue where fire magic is the heaviest and he is portrayed as the : fire mage. His hair is red, his holy blood is a flame his brother has a tome named valFLAME and his fire rank is better than his wind and thunder ranks. Not only is wind and thunder magic way lighter, It also (in my opinion) looks way cooler. Lightning crashing down your enemies and a slash of wind piercing trough the enemy looks better than a dinky fire ball. Lewyn and tailtu also have sprites that are more appealing to a newer player. Lewyn looks like a badass and his class name is Bard which sounds cool. Tailtu is a girl and she joins next to a guy who has a staff that can resurect people and has wrath.
Passing down Fala blood (and also swords if you promote him) is a great way to turn Shaky Sword Unit (Delmud or Patty) into Competent Magic Sword Unit.
Crazy how heavy fire tomes are in Genealogy. The standard 12 weight means they weigh the same as lances lol. Sure Marty in the next game has 0 speed but that's not the same as negative avoid.
Another aspect about Azel that makes him better than the other "weak at start, strong later" characters in the franchise is that FE4 doesn't punish weak units through deployment cost, since every character can be deployed as long as you have them recruited. Plus, the implementation of the Arena allows you to have at least some degree of EXP available to units with low risk and without dragging out your turn count. If it weren't for how absolutely beyond busted mounted units were, it'd allow each character to feel usable.
Man when I first saw azel before I saw anyone I thought he was a girl and quickly realized he wasn’t once his mouth opened lol. But as I played with him more he became one of my favorites. I don’t know why but his just honest feel he has is so nice to have that I can’t help but grow attached to him.
Man, as someone who doesn’t mesh with FE4 on a gameplay and narrative level (in terms of the plot itself). I really do admire how much Kaga was able to blend his gameplay and story presentation together. I really liked Azelle from the moment I was given control of him. Granted, Fire and Mage bias is no doubt a huge contender, but he is so satisfying to train up.
I just discovered your videos today and binged all your videos after watching your fe8 video. The quality of your videos and the passion you put into it just astonishes me and I really hope people watch your videos more. They're informational and the pacing is fantastic. Keep it up man

Idk about this gameplay story coherence stuff all I know is the sound an Elwind makes when it absolutely decimates a man
just fixing fire magic would go such a long way to help the poor kid out.

Good job making Azel more likable.
Azel is my favorite character

yeah been waiting for another fe4 video from you!!!!!
"Llewelyn's Got Chulainn"
"Azel sits next to Arden"
Great analysis video! Honestly, the video felt way longer than 6 minutes and it was sincerely very well scripted.

Azel is my favourite tbh. Gladdddd to see the boy mentioned.
Azelle is and always will be my favorite FE character. I appreciate the Azelle love since no one talks about him. You earned a sub :)

I love Azel, he is my favourite unit! Such a cutie too!
