The theory about Julian being
a left over from previous games Jason is pretty sweet! ^^
Here, I will talk about the charactaristics of some of the fighters:
Davis, Woody and Dennis are related to each other, as it can be seen in one of the official images in the official site of the game:
As you see, they are from Tai Hom Village. I prefer thinking that they are just friends rather than brothers.
Davis is obviously the leader of the Little Fighters: He is the mascot of the game (see his action figure), he always stands at the center in group shots and in general has the look of a leader. The Dragon Punch looks the most sacred attack in the game.
Dennis looks younger than the other tow (and one of the younger heroes in the game). To me, he looks insecure and
Probably sees Davis as some kind of a mentor to him.
I'm not sure what to think about Woody, his LFO counterpart looks chill and looks like he likes to fight, but in this "universe" he has serious facial expressions. Looking at his swift and fluenced gameplay style, the LFO approach actually fits better.
Looking at other images from the oficcial site, you can see these pictures:
Deep and Henry are related. They live in the Lion Forest, maybe it's just their home or maybe they're "Guiardins Of The Forest" (I've heard that s**t too many times).
Deep's character reminds me of Vegeta's: Both are strong and both will fight for the sake of others, but the main reason they fight is for themselves, to prove that they are the strongest. They will also ditch the team and fight their own way.
Deep feels commited to Henry for some reason, as having friends doesn't feel like his style at all.
Henry, on the other hand, looks chill and happy but he is serious when he needs to (unlike LFO's Woody who is still chill when fighting). He probably likes to tell jokes - especially ones that Deeps hates. Fighting isn't Henry's purpose in life and he doesn't desire to fight too much, he will fight only when he needs to (meaning that he's not a pacifist, he just prefers doing other things).
Henry deeply respects Deep (pun intended) and gives him the speace he needs in fights. Sometimes, he secretly covers him up (he won't tell that because it will hurt Deep's ego).
Firzen. Nothing else to say here.
Actually, there's a lot to say, but I have no clue who he is. If he's the real deal, that means Firen and Freeze are the bad guys, and I don't want to think that. If he's a fusion of FF clones, than it's just lame, and I don't want to think that either.
LouisEX in the Forbidden Tower. I think he is the REAL Louis and not some kind of a clone. He is the most serious fighter and defeating Julian is his #1 priority.
I have tow theories about his story of becoming LouisEX:
- Louis probably tried to Fight Julian by himself and lost. Julian either brainwashed him or promised him greater powers, and the later submitted. When fought in Stage 3, he retreated back to the tower (same goes to Firzen in Stage 4. It can't be seen and I can only guess that because the lack of cutscenes). In Stage 5, he finally came back to his senses and rejoined the Litte Fighters.
- When he's LouisEX, he's wild, savage and can't control himself. The armor contains these powers. Julian managed to take control of him (not by fighting him) and released his powers.
The remaining characters are John and Rudolf. I have no idea who either of them are, but I can makes something up:
Rudolf is misterious. How original.
John is and not fully trained:
- He is knocked back when firing energy blasts.
- It take relatively long time to cast his skills.
- It takes a lot of Mana to cast his skills. Also, by comparing to Jan, the skills arn't rewarding like hers: Her cure requiers less Mana and summones a heal angle to all the team, whil John's requires about twice the mana, and only one cure. Jan's devils are summoned by the number of the opponents and John's Disk just hit whatever is on its way; Sure, players can benefit from the Disk better with enough training, but we can all agree that even if it's deadlier, it's also clumsier than Jan's Devils.
Also, I think than he's the yngest fighter alongside Dennis.
I think that's it for now...
