K Rool looks awesome in general too...

Glad most people's first exposure to Ashley as of today is stuff like this ツ

I almost want to dig deeper into how Ashley managed to obtain such a rabid legion of "fans" but I'm scared doing so will make my head explode.
 
I have no hype for the game anymore. It was one of my day-one pickups in December, but not anymore. K. Rool appeals to my childhood nostalgia, but not enough for me to overlook Ashley being an item AGAIN while people constantly say "Wow, Sakurai is really appealing to everyone this time! All the fan favorites got in! Wow!" It's like they're mocking her (even though they're not.) It still really stings.
 
I still don't get how someone can even think that Ashley is worth more than Castlevania unless they really just have no idea what they're talking about. Castlevania has been a dormant series for a long time sure but it still has a huge catalog of quality games that could be looked back upon at any time. Unlike certain game series where over time there was a dip in quality even the later Castlevania games were well received and while the Mercury Steam developed games may not have been everyone's cup of tea, they weren't outright bad games. What does Ashley have? Sure she has "potential", but Castlevania has already proven itself.

Anger can make people say dumb things.
 
I guess so but now there's something that's just really weird to me about all this. I mean I can understand Ashley being more popular when compared to the other Ware characters, but how did she get so popular like on her own? Like, what is she even so popular and well known for? And what is this thing that made people think that she would have the same shot as well proven characters like Cloud and Snake and promising young upstarts like Inkling?

A part of me really thinks by now that it's just her theme song, the memes that come with it and her being a gothic loli, because frankly, I'm looking at new WarioWare talk and fan works across sites, that has come with Gold's release and she really doesn't stick out that much, compared to everyone else, aside from her fans being particularly loud and Japan still favoring her. Little talk that I see about her ever even mentions much about anything regarding what she does in WarioWare and more just the character herself and her theme song.

At this point I'm more wondering why she keeps attracting people of this kind :

I kind of feel like those points are all intertwined but I don't really want to look into this kind of stuff...
 
To be Honest, the only reason I would want Ashley in is because I just want more magic characters. There's such a huge lack of magic characters as there are villains...
I also drew this immediately after the direct.
