Queen from Yugioh Vrains was set up to be this big villain and probably a main villain through the series. Her design is cool and she’s cruel. This would be the very first main female villain the Yugioh anime gets. I say first main because technically Camula from Yugioh GX was the very first Yugioh anime female villain but she was a side villain and E’rah(from Yugioh Zexal Manga) is a main antagonist a Yugioh series has had but she’s only from the Manga.

But back to Queen she was set up to be this powerful villain who is also responsible for the death of the Earth Ignis(a very sad death too). But sadly in the final season of Vrains she was killed off early on by Ai and in a quick and embarrassing way too… she also had a rushed deck of using Alurre Queen instead of a unique archetype that other Vrains characters had. I understand Vrains was rushed due to production reasons but man it sucks that they wrote off Queen and to be killed off easily despite her being set up as a main villain and the first female main villain in the anime.

I really hope Resident Evil gets a playable character in Smash6. At this point it’s one of the biggest franchises in gaming that’s missing from Smash(as a fighter). RE did get Spirits in Smash Ultimate as DLC so that’s a good sign that Sakurai is aware on RE’s popularity and how much people want someone from RE as a playable character.

RE has gotten several games on the Switch 2 including the latest RE Requiem. The main issue tho is that Sakurai would have to make a RE character fit Smash and be within a 10+ age rating. So no guns or no bloody/fleshy monsters can appear. It’ll be tough to censor the RE character and stage to fit smash but I’m sure Sakurai could do it. I could see them do something like make Leon playable and have Jill or Claire as his echo fighter. They could either have Leon have all his iconic looks from RE2,RE4, and his latest RE9 look as his costumes or they could have other iconic male RE characters be alts for Leon(Similar to Hero).

Why Leon over any other RE character? Well he is ranked as the most popular RE character in the series so it makes sense that he would be choosen for the Smash rep. How do you all feel about RE joining Smash with a fighter?

I’ve seen people complain a lot about the pacing and when the arc takes place(during Battle City top 8). Characters such as Bakura, Mai, and Odion couldn’t be in the VW arc due to being in a coma at the time but both Ishizu and Marik were alive and just chillin in the Kaiba blimp while everyone else was a part of Noah’s VW story.

If Ishizu and Marik were to take part in the VW arc how would you feel it should be done? What duels would you change to include them or do you think it’s perfect as it is and they shouldn’t be included at all? Would you want Marik to work alongside Yugi to escape from the VW? Only reason I’d want the 2 Ishtar siblings included so Ishizu could get another duel at least.

If I had to choose I’d make the VW arc take place after Battle City Top 8 ends. I feel it would be much easier to include the Ishtar family in it cause they may be too broken with having access to their respective millennium items(since they lose the items after losing and giving them to Yugi).
