He's going to announce Takamaru is actually playable.
And with another five-ten minutes reflecting, I just realized something:
I just got Lyn'd THREE times in my lifetime:
- I wanted a draw-sheathe swordsman/woman since pre-Brawl and latched on to Lyn because it was exciting times
- Lyn's an assist trophy
- I see Smash 4 is coming up and don't think much about Lyn because of how long it's been since Fire Emblem 7
- Lyn is featured prominently as an Assist Trophy in the Smash Direct
- I continue to show support for Takamaru as a character that would fill that niche just as well while bringing some history with him. The moment the SmashGAF thread starts talking about it
- Takamaru is an assist trophy
To be Azure J is to suffer.
Being AT'd sucks ass. Happened to me with Skull Kid and Waluigi, and if Ridley is seriously a stage hazard after Brawl I will literally implode.
Not to mention as a Zelda nut their handling of Ganondorf has always made me cry. Cue Sakurai post detailing his pull a sword out of his ass taunt and put it away. Shit gets me HEATED

"This is our new assist trophy Takamaru! In Smash Bros., there's only one samurai that matters - Masahiro Samurai"

It's just very convenient timing.
SmashGAF was talking up how Murasame being announced to be coming to the U.S. finally was a sign that Takamaru would be playable.
There was a heated debate about Takamaru being playable and RIGHT at that time Sakurai posts this lol
It's not.
But the timing is hilarious cause SmashGaf was discussing Takamaru and posting lot of fanarts like literally 4 posts before he got deconfirmed.
Edit: Nevermind, read the miiverse comment, is trolling.

LOL I'm now sure that Sakurai is very aware of the Smash community and trolling
"Pic of the day. I, Takamaru, have waited many years to appear in Super Smash Bros.! Link, Samus, Pit, and I debuted in the same year! Multidirectional Pinwheel Knife Rook Attack!! (FYI, I'm an Assist Trophy.)"

Link, Samus, Pit, Takamaru.
Which one of these is not like the others?
FWIW, I'm just happy to get a hard confirm/disconfirm. At the same time, yo Sakurai pls.
This isn't what we expected after that 1986 comment last E3

He would have been a cool character, so its a bit of a bummer, but cool he is in it.
You specifically though, fuck you for making me teary-eyed at 3am

Second harshest truth bomb said by Sakurai, beaten only by Waluigi.

Confirmed 2017 reboot developed by Sakurai and a proper roster slot in Smash 5.

Okay, a new voice, I don't think that was a great voice for him. He needs a voice that's more commanding.

I was hoping for a Kid Icarus situation. Pit in Brawl -> Sakurai creates a legendary revival for Kid Icarus with Uprising. A Sakurai Takamaru revival would have been amazing.
Charizard was a pokeball in Melee. Doesn't really mean anything.
Regardless, it's now going to take 20 billion years for this ronin to become playable in a future instalment in the series.
As was Little Mac an assist trophy in Brawl.
The way of the samurai is rough, his journey will be filled with hardship but I'm confident he will make it. He started once as a sticker and now he has proven himself to be worthy of at least being an assist. When we see him again I expect many great things.
And Pit was a normal trophy in Melee.
At first, I was thinking "meh, OK, I'll have to wait another 5-7 years for another chance".
But that comment? That's just too far for me. This isn't salt in a wound, that's like walking away from a disagreement and having someone spit in your face.
I never demanded or expected or anything of the sort. But my courtesy is now over.
Sakurai can FUCK. RIGHT. OFF.
