Knight Blazer
September 2nd was the 24th Anniversary of Wild Arms 2! A really cool game I still think about a bunch. I redrew the Shin Kamen Rider poster but with Blazer and I think it looks really good.
More jrpgs need some tokusatsu influence its the coolest thing when they do.

A little trivia contribution to the latest post of the WA Boss Poll @littleeyesofpallas surrounding Lord Blazer.
The "demon" known as Lord Blazer is referred to in-game as the "Blaze of Disaster", and the "Disaster" part of his title ties into his origins, which are not explained properly without official Japanese guides.
To put it simply, Lord Blazer is a Disaster, an antithesis to the Guardians of the series; If the Guardians are the powers that sustain the world, then a Disaster is a power that destroys it. Furthermore, Disasters grow stronger via negative emotions and feelings, much like how faith in the Guardians is a factor of how they can be potentially strengthened.
Supplementary material reveals that Lord Blazer was born from a pair of wings that fell off of Moor Gault, the Guardian of Fire, and it is evident due to the presence of black wings attached to his head. Additionally, Lord Blazer's appearance influences other Disasters within the series, namely the Disasters fought in Nightmare Castle in WA3.
This tiny bit of additional trivia may not have been worth mentioning, but I find it interesting that art of Lord Blazer depicts him as having no face, while the model in-game does the opposite, showing him with a smile and maybe a nose, yet never showing any eyes as that area is covered in shadow.
And he has hair in the back, too.

West of Fire 2
Breath of Fire 2 and Wild Arms 2 being two of the topics that are just rattling around in my brain forever resulted in this idea. The two honestly have a buncha similarities, especially BoF 3 onwards.
Love how this turned out!

The WILD ARMS Boss Tourney - FINAL RESULTS
And that's the final score! After 2 weeks of bracketed tournament and a month of preliminary mass elimination, across 6 different games, we have our Top THREE Bosses of Filgaia!
LUCEID of Wild Arms, Wild Arms 3, and Wild Arms Alter Code F
THE SCHROEDINGER FAMILY of Wild Arms 3
ZED of the Original Wild Arms & Wild Arms Alter Code: F
And honorable mentions to those challengers who gave our finalist a run for their money along the way!
LADY HARKEN who just barely got nudged out of 3rd place by Zed
and actually... that's it... Everyone who made it to these finals actually pretty handily cleared all their 1-v-1 matches up to this point. In fact Zed losing to Luceid by just 1 vote is the only other close call any of them seemed to have had along the way and he still made it to 3rd.
Between this and the results of the hero tournament, Wild Arms 3 seems to have really dominated these by volume as well as by rank, with the original Wild Arms and Alter Code F slipping into second place.
