Hidden Details: Emblem, Engage!

Welcome to the one-hundredth-and-fifty-eigth episode of the Hidden Details blog!

Have you found some obscure reference or detail in this comic? A JoJo reference? A sneaky little Loss? A callback to a previous comic? Let us know what you've found in the comments! Every detail that has been found will be added to the list below. Once everything has been found, this comic will officially be marked with "all details found".

Link to the comic for your convenience

Please only comment with ONE hidden detail or reference!

There is one Loss, one Balthazar and one crewmate. I count every Maus seperately. Bonus panels don't count.

1:
The first Maus was hiding behind Corrin. He's visible in the second panel after Corrin teleported, as found by Daniel Myhre!
2:
That is indeed Sir Balth of Zar's coat of arms on Marth's cloak in the first panel, Spirit of Gotham. Couldn't have said it any better myself.
3:
The second Maus is having a nice soak in the sink in the third panel.
Marth apparently has his own cup: it says アルス (Marusu/Marth) in katakana. Glad you noticed, Zanreo!
4:
This week's loss is visible in the bubbles in the sink in the third panel, as pointed out by A Sad Fat Dragon with No Friends!
5:
There's a portrait of Lizzie, George and Ralph from Rampage in the background of the third panel. We're running out of truly obscure characters to hide in the background, Generic Hero.
6:
Maus 3: the tail is visible behind the curtain in the third panel. Found by Tejayes.
7:
Lucina has a cool little Mark of the Exalt symbol on the back of her phone as seen in the fourth panel, and as pointed out by Cameron Devera.
8:
Yeah, I think Samus being strong as fuck is canon, John Leonard. Hence why Roy can't seem to beat her at armwrestling in the fifth panel.
9:
Maus 4: hiding in the lamp in the background of the fifth panel. Found by Jared Degear.
10:
Toon Link's belt is indeed a little sus in the sixth panel, Lord Circe.
11:
Maus 5: chilling on Little Mac's shoulders in the final panel. Found by Fighting Master.
12:
Corrin switched from eating a banana to eating an orange in the Somniel. Apparently oranges are very common there, William Dryden.
13:
Sommie, the Somniel doggo, seems to be a bit infatuated with Isabelle in the final panel. They'd make a cute couple, Miz Kriss!
14:
Yes Jon Brouse! Alear is wearing five Emblem Rings in the final panel, and they all belong to the Fire Emblem characters that are present in the same panel!
15:
Ike has received some swimwear in the final panel, which he seems a bit suspicious about. This is A) a reference to the thirsty Fire Emblem Heroes art where all the characters get "Summer" outfits (although I don't think Ike has one), B) a reference to the Somniel having a pool and C) foreshadowing for the bonus comic. I'll give you a point for that one, UnSaxon51.

Next week around this time, I'll reveal all the details. The ones that have not been found will be marked italic.

Hidden Details: Emblem, Engage!

Comments

toon link's belt buckle is a crewmate but upside down

Matthias

All the Mauses seem to try and hide (That is the fact I want to point out, the following are only examples, some mentioned, some not): Behind Corrin, in the sink, behind the curtain, as a lamp, on Mac's shoulder...

Sebastian L.

corrin is holding an orange in the 2nd last panel instead of a banana

Matthias

Ike is beefing up because because that's how he appears in Engage, and this is probably why Byleth wasn't summoned since your comics use the female version but Engage uses the male one. I guess that begs the question for why Corrin was summoned since it's the pretty (and imo better) girl version in Engage.

Tim Lockwood

The Engage protagonist(don’t remember the name) has five rings on one hand, one for each character they summoned.

Jon Brouse

Many kitchen appliances have 3-pronged plugs, so it's odd to see the outlets in panels 1 and 2 only having 2 holes in them.

Calvin Barbanell

Lyn is wearing her swimsuit alt from heroes. Chrom and Ferdinand are just wearing whatever

Joshua Kent

There's a Maus in the 4th panel behind the curtain with just its tail sticking out.

Martin Chow

Marth's mug was in Japanese. Referencing that he was reset in the Revival Arc.

Indigo the Dog

Maus hiding where Corrin was after being summoned

Pokedude14

saw a rampage poster with lizzie and co on page 3 behind marth

GainingGamer

I know it doesn't count, but in the bonus panel at the pool, Lyn is wearing her summer alt from Fire Emblem Heroes.

Jerry Woods III

Ike seems to be as confused as I am by the pair of shorts he's holding in the last panel. Whose are they?

UnSaxon51

The ones in panel 3 (which is actually 4 because the first one is there twice lol)

A Sad Fat Dragon with No Friends

The bubbles in the sink are loss

A Sad Fat Dragon with No Friends

Corrin was eating a banana when he disappeared but when we see him again in the 8th panel he is holding an orange

happy pasta

Does Link try to get stronger to get abs like adult link?

Percylegallois

The very round puppy (I heard its name is Sommie?) has taken an immediate liking to Isabelle in the last panel.

Miz Kriss

Roy can't get Samus to budge cuz she's an intergalactic warrior with enhanced DNA.

John Leonard

It's upside-down, though, so wouldn't that make it sns?

Tejayes

Marth's cup says "Marth" (Marusu) in katakana

Zanreo

In the 4th panel after Marty disappeared, there is a framed picture of the old rampage world tour game with the three monsters.

Erick_Martinez__

There's a mause behind little mac

Fighting Master

Corrin still hungy, he immediately switched out the lost banana for an orange.

William Dryden

There's a little Maus-tail behind the curtain behind Lucina under Pikachu under her phone on top of the sofa.

Tejayes

Toon Link's belt is sus.

Lord Circe

The way they're doing something only to disappear reminds me of that one State Farm commercial where it shows what the agents are doing before being summoned

Edgar Castro

The 6th panel has a Tandemous as the lamp when Roy disappears

Jared Degear

Lucina’s phone has the Exalt symbol in the 4th panel

Cameron Devera

When Marth disappears, he reveals a portrait of Lizzie, Harry, and Ralph from Rampage

Generic Hero

Part of Marth's coat of arms in the first panel is dedicated to sir Balth of Zar

Spirit of Gotham
