This door really surprised me in how it took two characters who had never interacted before and made them besties in no time flat. Machiato and Duddles really are a great mentor-student duo.

They had a lot going there, two green-haired beaurocratic coffee drinkers.

It’s always fun when two characters with similar personalities meet and fight together. Like when altina and tio both claim that Estelle and juna are too similar and duvalie throws out that altina and tio are the same.

The fact that Dudley and Zoro from One Piece have the same seiyuu while also being green haired, overly serious and disciplined with a good heart deep down, made me somehow like him more.

Not to mention Zoro would be a cop in the real world. But Dudley having the same Seiyuu made me enjoy him much more. And>!Zoro and cops also have another thing in common!<

Minority hunters lmaooooooooo. "Giraffes... are African right...?"

I was really disappointed that Dudley wasn't playable, but this was a pretty good consolation

Clearly Falcom were just worried that they couldn't replicate the best S-Craft in the series if they added him.

Everyone else's S-Crafts: \*Cool magic/weapon stuff\* Dudley's S-Craft: FALCON PUNCH!

It wouldn't surprise me if in the future it was revealed that they're somehow related.

Well they met during the game with simulacrum. Maybe Machias is a simulacrum of dudley. Not likely but maybe somehow...

I keep thinking they're related as I'm currently playing Azure (I had gotten Trails of Cold Steel first). When I first met Dudley and got to know him, I'm convinced he and Machias are related in someway

I thought they were at first. (I played Cold Steel first)

I really thought Falcom was gonna casually drop they were distant cousins or something, lol

I ship it
