User blog comment:DerpyDoodle/Characters That Should Be Removed in SSB5/@comment-8182065-20141108221338

As much as I love Lucina (and her voice actor as well), I'll have to say she might get the boot from the next roster once a new game comes out. She was this popular around, but in the next few years, possibly not so much. I would be happy if they could pull off an Olimar/Alph in the next game with her and Marth, but if it wasn't possibly this time around it won't be likely.

Dr. Mario: I have to admit I was a little confused as to why he was brought back into the game. Sure he's the best alternative if you don't want to use the F.L.U.D.D., but if another Mario is gonna come in as a fighter Paper Mario would be my top choice.

Dark Pit: Nothing to say, pretty much the same views.

Toon Link: I had always prefered Link over him if anything. I'm not much of a Zelda expert, although my friend says there's a lot more potential for other characters to take his place (she's still peeved that Ganondorf doesn't have an original moveset yet).

Greninja: He's on the same boat as Lucina with me. When the next generation rolls around we're most likely going to see a rep from Gen VII+ to take his place (because of Zoroark's existence, I can see him coming out of a Pokeball). With Mewtwo coming back in for this game, I'd put Charizard on the chopping block too honestly (total of 4 gen 1 reps now, Mewtwo's most likely going to Mega evolve during his FS, and he seems the most likely to stay because he was originally supposed to be in Brawl).
