I FINALLY FOUND OUT WHY THIS HAPPENS. You see this all the time when there’s a fight or a scrum and suddenly everyone pairs up with a member of the opposite team and they just sort of …hold each other.
Someone on reddit asked about it. And it turns out there’s a logical-ish reason:
all of the other players pair off with their man to prevent anyone else entering into the fight … so it’s a form of self policing.
[…] The players basically want to prevent 2 on 1, etc. fights and by finding a “hugging” partner so there’s no ganging up on one guy, even on accident. They do it because it’s fair. And it’s kind of cute sometimes.
Let’s have a focus on Episode 20, y’know part A with all the Yakuza!Matsu etc, yeah that one! What if the order they were introduced in perhaps said something about them, maybe ranking fighting abilities? Willingness to get into a fight? Strongest? Best fighter? It’s a bit of a questionable answer for myself so i’d take it as self determined but just have a look at the evidence! :0
6. Matsuno Choromatsu
Choromatsu has always come across as a weak character, whether it’s fighting his own verbal battles or just trying to do physical activities. Example: Just look at the Matsu!!! on ice outfits from hesokuri wars! He literally can’t even lift his own body weight. In the cybermatsu scene, he also claims that he doesn’t run in the halls, perhaps this signifies the lack physical activity he does? Maybe his concern of falling like the clumsy boy he is! Fast forward to episode 23 with the Dayon tribe, also another significant time! He’s even weak with his liquor as well! Slipping on his own regurgitation really isn’t ideal haha
5. Matsuno Todomatsu
He only fights battles he can win, this pretty much just includes trash talk. He very much relies on others to do physical objectives for him, take a look at the School Matsu hesokuri outfits from this episode! He has 2 guys to attack whilst he’s in the corner watching this! Let’s not forget that girlymatsu episode when Ichiko was talking shit about Todoko and saying that she only asked if people wanted to go on her camping trips so they could carry her stuff! Yes their not the same person but still, Todoko is a variation of Todomatsu so it still sort of applies? The list could go on but those are just a few examples.
4. Matsuno Karamatsu
Ah the passive aggressive brother, I’ve never seen him resort to violence except for episode 24 but there was a cause for that. Karamatsu’s always been extremely calm and collective throughout the series, yes we’ve seen him get occasionally peeved off but those instances weren’t truly being upset. Even when these moments happen, he’s always talked his way out of it rather then retaliating against them. A lot of times when he’s ‘out of character’, (his normal voice) Karamatsu’s very shy and submissive like the episode with Jigsaw or when it’s Hatabou’s birthday!
3. Matsuno Osomatsu
Ehhhh this one really doesn’t fit alot, but considering the remaining brothers it may actually be considered? I’ve always seen Osomatsu as a great fighter and a really strong character in general, putting him at number 3 seems a bit harsh but the background information sort of convinces? Osomatsu is quite a strong figure in my opinion. One too many times he’s hit, punched and kicked his little brothers(Just watch episode 24 :0), violence probably being one of his main resorts rather then verbal abuse. With his original outfits in Hesokuri Wars, Osomatsu’s attacks are also mainly based off these physical taunts too! Let’s not forget the Matsu!!! on ice, yet again! His attack with Todomatsu mainly consists of him throwing him into the opposition.
2. Matsuno Ichimatsu
To be brutally honest, Ichimatsu’s a scary character. From spontaneous human combustion to just his general aura, I think the reason he was introduced second last is perhaps because his mysteriousness and always portrayed as the dark or bad character in this context. (Hell in most roleplay skits he’s usually the murderer or the ‘bad cop’ character in such) Take notice on how he treats Karamatsu as well, he’s always threatening him some how, hurting him at most.
1. Matsuno Jyushimatsu
I honestly couldn’t agree more. Jyushimatsu has so much energy in him that it’s almost terrifying to think of what he’s capable with such.. energy. Not to mention he can literally swing Ichimatsu and a baseball bat at the same time! He’s portrayed as such a weird and interesting character in the series, some of the things he does has no explanation, even in this skit when he sucked up Totty it sorta gave that ‘what the fuck?’ thought. Pretty self explanatory.
This game seriously has some of the best boss battles in any game I’ve seen.
“What do we do for a boss fight in the Zora section?”
“Oh I know! Let’s have Link ride on the back of the Zora prince while being shot at by a giant mechanical water elephant’s ice blocks. The player gets tossed up a waterfall by the fish husbando to shoot water generators on the top of the giant mech elephant!”
“….have you gotten a raise yet?”
“Oh but that’s not all! For the Gerudos, let’s have Link and the Gerudo queen ride in on the sand walruses through a sandstorm and a lightning storm to blow up the feet of a giant mechanical thunder camel!”
“Dude, I don’t think the game can handle more!”
“But what about the Rito? How about the player gets taken into the air by the Rito’s best warrior, and then the giant robo-hawk puts up shield generators around itself. They player has to use updrafts to stay in the air and shoot each generator while avoiding lasers!”
“Dude, we already have an 8/10 on metacritic, it can’t be any better”
“Oh but it can! For the Gorons, let’s have….uhh….a stealth mission?”
“Hey, uh, I think I broke your spear.”
“Oh…… up, ok. You can get it fixed here, just be more careful next time!”
Urbosa:
“I, uh, broke your sword. And shield.”
“Ah. It was bound to happen eventually. Get it fixed up, and you’ll be fine.
Daruk:
“Um, sorry, but I broke the club you gave me-”
“HAHAHA, AGAIN?! That thing was so old, I’m surprised it lasted this long! Just patch it up real quick and be on your way.
Revali:
"Hey, um, I think I broke your bo-”
“YOU FUCKING WHAT?”
