Emil Castagnier-Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World

Otherwise know as the multi-personality boy.

Might as well do this as I had made some animations some time ago.

26.[F]Side Special Havoc Strike
Emil jumps up into the air and hits the enemy with his foot. The damage isn't that great, but it's a extremely quick and speedy move.
It has a 1/3 chance of becoming fire elemental, which increases damage but makes the move slightly slower.

He sure does.
However:

Oh look he's gone all "Ratatosk" Mode again.

amazing
it looks awesome

Ohmygod Emil!
I love the x29 hit air combos in ToS2~
Although Pheonix Rush doesn't look right. Did you edit this sprite yourself? There should be an arc slash around him and he should frontflip, not rotate.
Although since he IS ratatosk and he has the centurion skills, you should really put Pheonis Rush + Ventus. It's wind, and therefore cooler.

Thanks.
Does it look any better now?
I removed one frame and animated the effects. (didn't edit them into the slashing animation though)

Also,
Fully Charged Demon Fang Effect:

The Tenebrae Demon Fang had more of a burst of shadow more than a rising pillar. and I like the effect for Pheonix Rush. And although the attack looks smoother, I remember him doing a frontflip slash with a slash effect that spun around him.

Ah, the slash effect.
I'm mainly not going to put in slash effects in the game mainly because I they didn't really have slash effects in ToTW:ND3.
And I also thought they kind of overused slash effects in DotNW.

And I only made the Tenebrae demon fang a rising pillar to match the slashing animation.

Minor Update:

Oh. I see. But the shadow that came out of his sword bursts out from behind him, not in front of the sword arc.

A slash effect might look better on Pheonix Rush only because of the wind cutters around him. Iunno.

Very nice animations, but the fully charged demon fang animation bothers me a lot. I don't know why, I guess it's just.... too slow? idk, it should be more fluent.

Personally, it bothers me too.
I tried experimenting with different speeds but that was what I came up with.
I guess it won't matter as it would be fixed in flash.

Update:
I decided to now include slash effects.
Phoenix Rush:

That'd work. Do you need more stuff for a moveset? I've just played ToS2 for the past month or so, so all his skills are fresh in my head.

Also. Fiend Fusion, down special?

Nope. Not really.

And yes, Fiend Fusion is the dspecial.

Awesome. What are you using for Dual Death and Converging Fury?
also. For the final smash, will it be Devil's Hellfire or Ein Soph Aur?

I vote Ein soph Aur, that move is awesome!
Btw Raining Fangs ;o? Could be his Aerial side move or Aerial Down Move The only thing is im not a big fan of it when its linked with aqua =/

I'm currently on a vacation (spring break) so I can't really animate.
I do have Heavenly Tempest dpne though at home (havn't uploaded to image hosting website)

Also, raining fangs will be the down air, however, it will be the aqua version, as if it wasn't, the move might be too cheap.
Devil's Hellfire will be the Final Smash, but Ain Soph Aur will be an extension which involves the player holding down the special button while the move is taking place while Emil is above 150% in damage.

This looks good!

Did you make the sprites?

No, he got the sprites from a sheet ripped from Tales of Symphonia.

Tales of Symphonia wasn't a 2D game though.

Tales of the World. That's what the game was. It was a GBA game.
