With flashback episodes talking about how Sting and Rogue met or how Yukino joined Sabertooth or more of Minerva’s backstory

While the rest of the episodes show Sting being guild master and rebuilding the guild and everyone going on jobs and being total dorks

Where Lector and Frosch announce the episodes like Happy used to do

And Sting and Rogue do the “Next Time”

And OPENINGS and ENDINGS and NEW OSTs

I WOULD CRY WITH JOY

I saw this post the other day about how Rogue doesn’t get much appreciation outside of shipping so

I’m gonna just…say all of the things I love about Rogue Cheney

ponytail

his love for Frosch + his guild

his determination to not become like his future self

his insane amount of clothing

how emotional he gets after losing Frosch

his bickering with Sting

how adorable he is when embarrassed/shy

how deadpan he can be in certain situations

his slightly parental attitude to Frosch + Sting

the fact that he does Sting’s paperwork

his character develpment from a seeimingly empty, cold person to a loving friend willing to do anything for those he cares about

the way he proves the “don’t judge a book by its cover”, by being a total cinnamon roll despite his ‘dark’ appearance and magic

when Jiemma was mistreating Sabertooth + the rest of Sabertooth was mistreating others in the games, he wanted nothing to do with it

he admitted to his mistakes before anyone in Sabertooth did

he spoke up against Sting when he was bashing Yukino after she was kicked out

he was willing to recognize when he was defeated, and used it as a lesson to make himself stronger

his interactions with Gajeel, Sting, Natsu, Minerva, Yukino, + pretty much everyone else

the way he’s willing to admit when he needs help, and accept it when offered

he doesn’t let his constant war against himself bring him down

he has hope for the future, despite what he’s been told

Nintendo: Sure but only if he holds his coffee cup in this specific way, we cannot have him be out of character

Ubisoft: Yo can Luigi dab in our game
