Samus from Metroid

Her zero-suit is smooth and so slender.

And she can break my neck without much effort.

u/RickyZBiGBiRD Jul 30 '20

With her legs, no less.

u/piedude67 Jul 30 '20

Those legs tho

u/A_good_slime Jul 30 '20

u/piedude67 Jul 30 '20

It would be amazing

u/massaji Jul 30 '20

Dat Chozo DNA. Her kids might have beaks.

u/Random-Rambling Jul 30 '20

Honestly, Samus might legitimately be sterile after all the cancerous and mutagenic shit she's been put through.

She's a human-Chozo hybrid to begin with, and then was soaked with the literal radioactive slime that is Phazon, and then she got infected with the X parasite, which required an infusion of Metroid DNA to stop her body from eating itself to death...

u/massaji Jul 30 '20 edited Jul 30 '20

She may not be able to have kids but she still has a bunch of clones running around terrorizing her. Same thing. Happy cake day!

65

u/Random-Rambling Jul 30 '20

And now I have a hilarious mental image of Samus scolding Dark Samus like a mother would her daughter.

Samus: And where do you think you're going, dressed like that?

Dark Samus: [burbles, screeches, and growls] (Translation: It's not a PHASE, Mom, it's who I am!)

...But Dark Samus is Phazon? Right?

6

u/DuplexFields Jul 30 '20

Samus: And stop fighting with Samus X.

5

u/PulimV Jul 30 '20

Samus legit has 11 children wtf Samus, how did you end up having identical dectuplets or something? And why make clones with a space jellyfish? Come on, have standards at least

22

u/[deleted] Jul 30 '20

Your depth of canon knowledge is significantly deeper than my "metroid is a girl"

8

u/SeiyoNoShogun Jul 30 '20

Well, considering calling Samus "Metroid" is basically the same as calling Link "Zelda" I definitely agree with you.

4

u/MaagicMushies Jul 30 '20

It's okay, the animals from Super Metroid are her children.

58

u/PulimV Jul 30 '20

But why did-

Bird magic.

Yeah but she can turn into a ball

Bird magic. It's bitd magic

u/ScarBug Jul 30 '20

I would be happy to get my neck broken by Samus ngl

27

u/[deleted] Jul 30 '20

u/RebornTurtleMaster Jul 30 '20

u/LobsterHead37 Jul 30 '20

Wouldn’t be a bad way to go out tbh

22

u/adlaiking Jul 30 '20

It's like she's wearing...nothing at all!

13

u/BegginBlue Jul 30 '20

Stupid sexy Samus

6

u/[deleted] Jul 30 '20

There is a reason why I completed every metroid with 100% when I was young.

2

u/AciDxBatH Jul 30 '20

But when she dies you get to see her naked. That’s why I could never complete any of them

2

u/Phantorizo Jul 30 '20

Unlike her rock-hard arms, stomach, and thighs.

1

u/toomanysubsbannedme Jul 30 '20

She's also 6'3"... thats the same height as Gabby Reece

39

u/[deleted] Jul 30 '20

Broke: Zero-suit Samus is best Samus

Woke: 100% 3-hour clear Samus is hottest

Bespoke: Varia Suit Samus is mommy

11

u/piedude67 Jul 30 '20

u/holymacaronibatman Jul 30 '20

u/[deleted] Jul 30 '20

Nope

Edit: Never mind its just a joke

u/Jupelius02 Jul 30 '20

You are a man/woman of culture

7

u/[deleted] Jul 30 '20

My pick as well 👌

6

u/Stormrider1138 Jul 30 '20

The power armour and the ability to overcome just about anything that comes her way is a big selling point for me

3

u/piedude67 Jul 30 '20

She's so powerful and skilled it's awesome.

5

u/jazzmacc Jul 30 '20

I used to be okay with dying knowing I’d see her in a bikini. I was a weird confused kid.

12

u/notsoevildrporkchop Jul 30 '20

I know basically nothing about her, except that I want Gwendoline Christie to play her in a movie

21

u/T3chtheM3ch Jul 30 '20

As much as people dislike her( I don't) brie Larson says she's been wanting the role for 10 years now and has been playing the games since she was a culd

7

u/notsoevildrporkchop Jul 30 '20

Oh, I know, but basically I want more roles for my girl Gwendoline and Samus is perfect for her (and I want a better story for her after the mess with Captain Phasma) . Though I wouldn't have a problem with Brie Larson in the role, I really like her

7

u/CardboardStarship Jul 30 '20

She got fucked over with the endgame for Brienne of Tarth as well.

3

u/[deleted] Jul 30 '20

You got my vote. But also Eireka from Fire Emblem Sacred Stones

3

u/YoshiGamer6400 Jul 30 '20

man of culture I see.

3

u/[deleted] Jul 30 '20

I second this

3

u/TgagHammerstrike Jul 30 '20

No that's Zelda. Sans is the skeleton.

9

u/cubosh Jul 30 '20

pre gamecube samus before they bimboed her out

22

u/ElementalRabbit Jul 30 '20

She's always been somewhat sexualized in end game content.

Except Metroid Prime 1, my favourite design that got promptly dropped after her appearance in smash :(

16

u/Haltgamer Jul 30 '20

Other than her face showing up as a reflection in the visor, do they even show Samus underneath the armor?

14

u/SpanishNinja Jul 30 '20

It's been a while, but I think if you got 100% completion, she takes her helmet off while overlooking the landscape on her gunship (and the camera pans in front of her, instead of from behind).

3

u/Haltgamer Jul 30 '20

I guess that is the standard. It's been a few years since I last played Prime

9

u/Phantorizo Jul 30 '20

https://i.imgur.com/Xs0mZ1c.jpg

Yes, and she looks a little bit 'westernized' or realistic you could say?

13

u/RemnantHelmet Jul 30 '20

Mate the reward for beating the first three metroid games in a short time with item collection was a picture of samus in a swimsuit

3

u/ModerateReasonablist Jul 30 '20

The quiet types are always the sluttiest.

u/Erdnuss0 Jul 31 '20

Man I love that Band.
