Oh boy, there's a lot to explain here.





Samus is wielding the Parallel Falchion from Fire Emblem, a sword with dragon-slaying capabilities. In Smash Bros, Lucina's Final Smash can KO Ridley.

Samus is using the Aether skill from Fire Emblem in conjunction with her Screw Attack ability.

In Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, Aether is the name of the planet were the game takes place. It has both light and dark counterparts.

In Fire Emblem, the Aether skill is a combination of the Sol and Luna skills.

Both Samus and Lucina were mistaken for the opposite gender initially due to the objects they wore on their head.



Both Samus and Lucina are orphans whose parents were killed by dragons (Ridley and Grima respectively).
