Suikoden 2 has the mc use tonfas.

I'm not sure what his canon weapon is, but I like to think its his own severed arm.
>>320262009
I guess this is an rpg.

It's a club.
Technically retconned from sword to this weird spear thingy.

OK?
Evolution.
Mag has a sweet robotic hand that he punches enemies with.
the Amazon from Diablo 2

Mario
You jump on stuff and shoot fire. Also he used hammers before that.
>>320262009
Salior Moon Another Story
>>320262628
Well by that logic Dragon Quest's hero's main weapon is a stick too.
>>320262809
When Zanza uses it, It's just an giant beam of pure energy held by the Bionis.
Metal Max - you uses tanks, and when fighting on foot, grenades and items
7th Saga - some of the main characters (there is more than one) are pure mages
Terranigma - Spear
Rhapsody - MC uses a cornet (her name is also Cornet)
Treasures of the Rudras - mantras
Your own tears

>Meyneth's two swords
>Shulk finally unlocks his True Monado
>It's still a sword
>All the Replica Monados are swords too
Face it, it may conform to the will of its master, but all of them willed it to be a sword, therefor it's a sword.
FF8.
Squall doesn't use a sword, it's a gunblade. It's not a gun either. :^)
You realize any form of combat weapon training counts as "martial arts", right?
>>320262921

>>320262628
Undertale isn't a RPG, its an autism simulator that barely counts as a game.
Darkcloud 2?
Atelier.
>>320262009
Mother 3 you use a stick
>>320263349
>every conversation is a boss battle
You might be onto something...
>>320263150
Umm, It's most "true" form(there isn't actually one, but let's be retards for a second) is a giant beam held by the Bionis, which acts more like a spear being held mid-grip than a sword.
>>320262990
The only difference is all the other weapons in undertale are the dead humans' canon weapons. The stick is the only one you can really consider Frisk's.
Eternal Sonata.
>>320263378

Trails; Estelle has a staff.
Xenosaga I, II, and III.

Let's face it, the generic sword guy is the main character. Frederick and Polka are forgotten about until the last chapter.
>>320263768
Was just about to say this.
>>320262850
Based Evolution. I think that was the first JRPG I ever played.
>>320263378
I'd argue that Monica is also A protagonist, but since the story is kind of all about Max, I could say this works
Kamidori Alchemy Meister
Wilfred uses a hammer.
>>320263378
>>320263701
Dang, that's somegood tasteyou guys got right dere.
SMT Nocturne. Nigga doesn't use martial arts, only punches things really hard and Fog Breathes on enemies.
>>320263013
>Rhapsody - MC uses a cornet (her name is also Cornet)
My uber nigga.
>>320263972
Except no. Polka is your first character and you have her through the whole game. The game is literally set in Chopin's head. Either of them is the main character.
>>320262491
He doesn't need a weapon, his magic is way more powerful than anything else.
Solatorobo, main pilots a robot that tosses other robots.
>>320264057
>not making magic demi fiend
disgusting.
>>320264057
That still counts as punching nigger. That's why no one mentioned Demi Fiend.
>>320262808
I remember that in Dissidia he had even some weird laser satellite thing in his arsenal.
Quest 64 counts right?
crash :D
Capitalism, ho!
>>320262009
Shadow Hearts
Assassin's Creed. Hidden blade.

He uses a swallow like zidane in ff9.
FF9 Zidane has two daggers if that doesn't count
>>320264374
they're essentially bladed knuckle weapons
Persona 3
MC's canon weapon is spears
>>320264448
Parin is cute!
CUUUUUUUUUUUUUTE!!!!
>>320264567
I'd make Zidane swallow. ;-)
>>320262009
FF Sacred Stones. Ephraim uses a Lance, now go fuck yourself.
Dragon Quest V
>>320262009
Technically, the Monado is a computer chip.
OFF
>>320262009
Any Mario RPG, I assume that's been said a million times, that's a jrpg
Dr brain IQ adventure for wrpg
>>320262009
Bloodborne? Saw Cleaver is the weapon in the boxart.
>>320264230
No, true disgusting is making a magic based demi fiend.
Holy fuck I want to barf in my mouth on reading that. You have absolutely awful taste. And your pics hair is shitty too.
>>320262241

She uses a boomerang.

Lloyd from Ao/Zero no Kiseki uses tonfa
>>320264960
Moving the goalposts, mang
>>320264229
he has that "stun gun" though, which is pretty much a gunblade
>>320264637
>playing as the non-canon female
>>320262118
and Suikoden II, you use Tonfa.
>>320264996
>>320265336
Oh, I thought Portable locked you to spears no matter what MC you picked
My bad, I only played FES and heard about shit in Portable
Adventures of Hourai High - you can technically use swords, but you spend most of the game using shit like box cutters, textbooks and various school supplies to fight
>>320263013
>Treasures of the Rudras - mantras
Sion uses a sword for sure. Mantras aren't weapons, it's like saying that every JRPG protagonist fits OP's bill because they can use spells or skills instead of attacking with their swords
>>320265576
MC's a canon swordfag, even in the first two versions where MC could equip every weapon type.
>>320265576
He uses a sword in the movies and in PQ.My headcanon weapon for him is an ax. We gotta honor Shinji.
Bayonetta uses her hair, also guns but they aren't the main weapon
>>320265576
In the base game and FES both the starting weapon and the ultimate weapon are swords, P3P locks him to swords, and the manga and anime have him using swords.
FeMC uses a spear, but she doesn't actually exist, who cares.
Ilusion of Time (Ilusion of Gaia)
The protagonist uses a friggin' flute. He also has psychic powers, which are NOT martial arts.
chrono cross
what the fuck is a swallow anyway?
>>320266018
You use a sword as Freedan
>oh this looks like an innocent thread, let's check it out
>triggered multiple times in less than a minute
>waves of agony washing over me
>just want to kill myself now
We'll never get another Suikoden. I see no reason to continue living like this.
Basically any vidya protagonista that uses magic or other sort of supernatural power already counts, as well as any character that uses knuckle weapons and similar. There are a shit ton of them.
>>320262651
not in 4
>>320266005
>tfw Persona Q was about some stupid death god limbo thing
>tfw it wasn't about FeMC coming to terms with her either being misplaced from her own world, or accepting that she never existed

Freedan is not the same personas as Will. Will is the main character
>>320262009
Shitty.

>>320265050
>Illusion of Gaia
And his weapon also gets the faggot award
>>320264283
Does the OP say punching, nig romancer? No, it says martial arts.
By your logic Super Mario RPG would be disqualified too, seeing he starts with gloves and can equip a couple more throughout the game.
>>320266323
They're not an actual weapon, the correct name would be "shit thing with blades on both ends". But they called them swallows because they resemble a swallow's wings, and it sounds cool.
The ateliers are usually using sticks.
>>320266672
"As he travels, Will gains the ability to change into other forms, each with special powers: Freedan, a dark knight, and Shadow, a solid form of energy."

Blades and swords are significantly different. Blades generally have one edge while swords have two.

Its a fist spike, so i guess it doesn't count as a sword. Also battles with capturable creatures.
>>320267881
Well, in that case, Castlevania 2 is still valid.

They are animals
>>320262009
Planescape Torment.
His own fucking arm, used as a club. Also a scalpel.

Wil from Kamidori
He uses a hammerand his dick, and he becomes a fucking marauding juggernaut at the end, just crushing the skulls of dragons without breaking a sweat.
>>320268452
he uses fists and ice magic. sigils on his jacket are a way of empowering his abilities

ayy
>>320268181
"Meme word" is its own definition.
>>320267968
Are you retarded? There is plenty of swords with one edge. Also, blades are a part of a sword or knife, not a weapon themselves.
Zelda and muh Triforce
>>320262009
I don't like this new meme of "put an extremely easy task in the OP and pretend it's a challenge"

Crushes dragons during daytime

We should all be aspire to be as based as Will
Tomes
>>320262808
I don't think I'd count his dissidia weapon as canon.
>>320262628
That's not the Canon weapon though. The closest thing to a Canon weapon in Undertale would be Real Knife in genocide.
El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron.
You didn't say anything about it being all three.
You use pins.
>>320269059
>implying she's the MC
>implying that even if she was meant to be the MC anyone gave a fuck about her and not based Ike
>>320268993
He also crushes dragon pussy at nighttime.
Because it's fucking Kamidori.
>>320262808
Even in Dissidia, they call that a sword. It's just a really weird fucked up Amano sword.

Also, I think sword users are actually minority in the game? Just one of the girls uses it.
