Awesome / Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem

Go To

  • This entire sequence, occurring at the end of Chapter 3 of Mystery and its remake. Jagen may be a Crutch Character, but after this scene he was definitely Rescued from the Scrappy Heap. Lang also finally gets the "The Reason You Suck" Speech he truly deserves.
    • From the same chapter there's Michalis of all people swooping in to rescue Minerva, all while calmly talking down Rucke and departing with no resistance. It's sudden, but it sets Michalis's arc up well.
  • One of the New Mystery exclusive gaiden chapters has you forced to square off against the hired Caesar and Radd alongside other sellswords they command. It's a tricky chapter, but then you learn why it was so tricky in Caesar's support, it's because Caesar was that much of a tactical genius, and the only reason Marth's army won in the end was because they had time to prepare, a luxury Caesar's army didn't have.
  • Archanea War Chronicles Chapter 4 is the only one to feature an Optional Boss of sorts. You're not required to kill him to complete the chapter, and doing so is very difficult due to the constant reinforcements you have to fight your way through. But if you actually accomplish this feat, instead of the boss taunting Camus at the chapter's end, Medeus himself fills the role, and comments that no human has ever put up this much of a fight against him since Anri. He seems to consider Camus a Worthy Opponent for pulling this off. The conversation is partly a case of Breaking the Fourth Wall: It's just as much the player being praised for their awesomeness as Camus.
  • Palla, Catria, and Est are walking CMOA's, due to being playable in Shadow Dragon, Gaiden/Echoes, and then finally this one. That's right, the Whitewings canonically fought in three wars in a row. And with their individual stats and growths, one can easily see why they won every single time. Maximum Action Girl status achieved.
