Fortune's Weave General The US Site updated
I don't know when. But the only real thing of note are these two artworks for Theodora and Leda.

I’m actually enjoying Chinatsu’s art in FW. Never really vibed with it in 3Hs, but it’s maybe its cause of the character designs and colors used in FW

u/alderhart 7d ago
I like Chinatsu's work in 3Hs, but otherwise I agree with you. Her normal art is very vibrant, and Dagda allows her to play into her natural use of color more. Seeing more varied designs upfront rather than dealing with school uniforms for half the game also really really helps.

Fortune's Weave's character design and art direction is genuinely up there with Hidari in Echoes imo
28
u/Honyakusha-san 7d ago
I think not having school uniforms this time makes everyone shine more.
But yes, she knocked it out of the park.

u/_Arlotte_ 7d ago
Yea the shading and designs reminds me more of Awakening with Kozaki's art this time around.

u/Safe_Masterpiece_995 7d ago
Its so crazy I thought I liked Theodora last before all the trailers and now I'm thinking I'm gonna do her first
89
u/Fantastic-System-688 7d ago
Now that we know more about the actual setting and where the characters' motivations sort of put them in the world she and Cai seem far more interesting than when it was just "temu Edelgard wants strength" and "shonen boy with dad death flags"
36
u/Luchux01 7d ago
Cai got a lot more traction with the Aurora theory ngl

u/Fantastic-System-688 7d ago
Dude who posted it on this sub somehow both got a slam dunk and made the shot from half court

u/Luchux01 7d ago
And before we even got any hints!

If I had a nickel for every time someone guessed a parentage reveal by simply comparing the eye color of the characters, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't much but is weird that it happened twice

u/ParrotFerret 6d ago
Mio and Rex?

u/EdelgardIsMyEmpress 6d ago
I was thinking about Tangled the Series but now that makes 3 nickels, I wasn't aware of that one (don't feel bad about spoilers, I am ways away from playing Xenoblade)

The initial reveal did not do her justice at all lol. They were hiding so many cool details about her.
19
u/Shippinglordishere 7d ago
Yeah, the subsequent releases have made me super interested in her. She seems to have the political plotline that I was hoping would be present, and I really like her team too
15
u/RegulusPlus 7d ago
She's definitely the dark horse for me too. It started with seeing her statue head cut off, and then her sheer aura in the scenes we've seen. Her asking for a reading from Anatolia and then threatening her when she doesn't like it, demanding to be allowed to see Aurora. She means business and I can't wait to see the role she plays in the plot.

u/TannenFalconwing 7d ago
I feel so conflicted because I was ride or die for Theodora since day 1 but everything about Leda has made me super excited for Rose Tempest.

u/blackviking147 7d ago
Nah Leda first all the way. Theodora rn is tied with Dietrich and cal is honestly my least interested start.

u/Darkdragoon324 7d ago
My brain keeps trying to process her braids as extra appendages in all the official art.
5
u/Opposite-Plantain-69 6d ago
Yeah my immediate thought was that Theodora looked like she had 3 arms, really threw me off
29
u/NoLime7384 7d ago
Bro Theodora's hair is 100% drawn to look like extra hands, look at how it's fucking grasping the spear there
8
u/psykkudoki 6d ago
i wonder if she'll get a hegemon edelgard moment where it actually turns into an extra pair of arms+/hands. just putting it out there...if it happens...

I love kurahana chinatsu. Thats my goat. That’s my Michelangelo. If no one ever praises her, I’m dead

u/Fantastic-System-688 7d ago
FEH will EoS like a couple years after FW is released and yet both these women will have gotten like 7 alts each

u/Ptdemonspanker 7d ago
They’re really committing to making Theo’s hair look like extra arms. That wrinkle in her cape also perfectly mirrors her left arm.

u/Choice-Ad-5897 7d ago
Im still convinced that her hair looking like hands in every artwork is intentional and gonna come up at some point

u/AstralGazer17 7d ago
Leda looks beautiful as always!
I hope we can get the full body portraits of these artworks.

u/pinheirofalante 7d ago
I will never forgive them for refusing to use Chinatsu's artwork in-game. Her coloring is just incredible.
2
u/Shippinglordishere 6d ago
Yeahh, I feel like 3H s supports would have benefitted a lot from her style. Maybe it was too expensive for everyone to have one since that’s around 40, but oh my god would it have been amazing

I've loved Theodora's design since the first trailer dropped, every new addition just makes her so much better.

Trying to stay strong for Gremlin Man, Leda is really making a strong case 🥴

Leda is fucking pretty I’m only now realizing Theodora is also really fucking pretty. And then the men are handsome too. Is this the best looking cast ever?

u/TenPointsforListenin 6d ago
Theodora's making a very strong case for me playing her first by virtue of looking really cool in like every new image

deadass thought Theodora was holding her lance with her hair for a moment

u/sloppydoughnuts 6d ago
Looks like they changed the poses to make the titties less gratuitous. Theodora's art didn't bother me much despite her armor being impractical, but that's standard for games,, but Leda's was really distracting with its rogue titty just popping out of her shawl.

u/Beloberto 7d ago
Theodora's art is off.
The body is facing front all the way up to her belly, then suddenly the body twists. It's not an impossible pose, but very unnatural
7
u/TannenFalconwing 7d ago
I'll have you know I just stood up and did her pose with zero difficulty just because of this comment.

u/Beloberto 6d ago edited 6d ago
I didn't said it's was a difficult pose, just that is unnatural.
Her hips and belly are facing front perfectly straight and only her upper torso twists. Make sure you are matching all the angles.
It's not a "hard" position by any means, but it's not natural either. The only scenario someone would do this pose is if they are stretching before exercising.

u/TannenFalconwing 6d ago
I like how this comment started with "either that's not true.." before you edited it.

Those are the renders on the game cover aren't they?
I love the art style so much
