Is there a JRPG protagonist who uses a spear instead of sword?

Well, yeah. Of course.
Hence the question since I never see spear users in JRPG. Hell, I saw gun users as JRPG protags before spear users.
>>318071416
FemMC in P3P if you count non-canon spin offs.

Is there a JRPG protagonist who uses a gun?
Spears are sidecharacter material, no MC worth his salt is gunna use that pussy shit.
In DQ8 the hero can specialize in spears but I don't know how good they are, I picked boomerang
>>318072567
spears are the best weapon in DQ8

Resonance of Fate is the perfect game for you.
>>318072457
>>318072457
Wild Arms.
Resonance of Fate.
If you count japanese SRPGs, FE8.
Spears are cool as fuck.
Loved that shit in morrowind and dark souls.

Is there a JRPG protagonist who uses a knife?
>>318071416
The main character in EO untold 1 is a spear user, but I don't know if that counts because it's a remake of a game with a customizable main character.
>>318072645
fuck
Why not both?
>>318071416
In Tales of Phantasia you can choose from swords (including rapiers), axes and a number of polearms (spears, halberds and so on).
>>318071416
That's kinda hard if we're talking about as a main weapon then I can hardly think of any.
If you mean JRPG MC who can use spear another weapon of choice there's a few more choices.
Although if you still want an example Alc the MC of Arc the lad 2 starts with a spear and are generally his main weapons(Even though he can use other weapons)
>>318071416
Loads of Fire Emblem games.
>>318072692
If the main character had a canon name i'd play it.
>>318073002
you get a low costing ability that always crits and another ability that gives you 20 tension each time you use it
and then there is multistrike which hits a million times

Zidane.

Starts with a rod but ends up with some spears.
Say Ark is pussy shit. I dare you.

The strange journey MC is the only SMT protagonist that doesn't have a canon name.

Gungnir
Ar Tonelico 2
I don't mind the ubiquitousness of swords, but the best MC weapons in JRPGS are either everything (like Ashley Riot in Vagrant Story) or really weird, specific things (like say in Mana Khemia).

Persona 3, FemMC.
>>318073457
His canon name is Hitonari Tadano, it's from screenshots on Famitsu and drama CD.
Tadano Hitonari 只野人也, it means "He's just a normal human"
>>318074294
Yeah but the MC is american in the NA release so that can't be it.
How about a JRPG character that uses Chakrams or Tonfas?
>>318074546
A chakram is just an improved boomerang, so DQ games.
Outside of Hector, I can't think of any JRPG heroes who use axes.
First one I thought of
>>318074546
>Tonfas?
Suikoden 2.
If you can read Jap(Or Chinese) Then you can play Zero/Ao no Kiseki who's MC also uses them.
>>318074738
Fuuka from Disgaea 4 uses axes.
>>318075001
I guess I'll check out Suikoden 2 then. Shame mainline Monster Hunter games don't bring over Tonfas. I barely see them represented In video games.
>>318071416
Aera from uh
I forgot the name of the game.
>>318074738
Zenki
>>318071416
>>318071416
Nine from FF Type-0.
How about manly MCs that don't use any weapons at all?
>>318072457
>>318075683
Nine isn't the protagonist, that'd be Machina and Rem.
