Link to the comic for your convenience
Please only comment with ONE hidden detail or reference!
There's one Loss, one Balthazar, one Miep and one crewmate. Bonus comics don't count.
FIRST PANEL
1: The front page of Chrom's newspaper tells us that A Christmas Warol is apparently getting a Netflix special. If only, Tolis.
2: I hadn't thought that much about the Crest of Reigan on Chrom's mug, Generic Hero. Claude is just my favorite Three Houses guy.
3: Yes, the Balthazar book stopper absolutely counts as Balthazar, Calvin Barbanell!
SECOND PANEL
4: This week's loss is visible in the bathroom sign, which shows a total of seven human figures. Good catch, The Negotiator.
FOURTH PANEL
5: Apparently, one of Isabelle's broadcasts is happening on the TV. I don't know if Chrom is playing Animal Crossing, Emerald6521. Maybe Isabelle just does these broadcasts every day.
6: There's a little portrait of Bayou Billy (from the titular NES game) on the wall.
7: Chrom references Corrin being married to Camilla, which is indeed a callback to that one Fire Emblem comic from a while back, Jon Brouse!
FIFTH PANEL
8: Chrom mentions humans (Joker), animals (Diddy Kong), machines (ROB), aliens (Ridley) and monsters (Ivysaur). He also mentions deities, by which he is apparently referring to Kirby.
SIXTH PANEL
9: Duck Hunt Dog is chasing Simon, Bayonetta and Dark Samus' cats. Seems that no one remembered the fact that they got cats, but I'll give Edgar Castro a point for mentioning Purrloin (Dark Samus). The others are a cat from Bowser's Fury (Simon) and Alvina (Bayonetta).
10: And the final tail belongs to our very own Miep. Glad you recognized her, Spirit of Gotham!
SEVENTH PANEL
11: If you look closely at Min Min's phone, you can indeed see a little police logo, Lord Circe! Seems like she thinks they wouldn't be able to break up Kazuya and Jin without help from the law.
12: I also replaced Min Min's normal kanji with 末.
13: Jin's shoe somehow ended up on top of the cupboard in the background. Good eyes once again, Trigger!
EIGHTH PANEL
14: This week's crewmate is visible in the little ornament on Chrom's shoulder armor. Found by Cameron Devera.
15: Incineroar, being close friends with Kazuya after the previous two arcs, is trying to calm his buddy down. He's not doing a very good job.
Next week around this time, I'll update the post to reveal all the details. Details that have not been found will be marked italic.
Comments
Trigger
It seems Jin's left shoe ended at the top of the cupboard at the top left corner in the second-to-last panel. How did it get there?
Jon Brouse
Continuity with the Revival Arc! Chrom almost mentions Corrin is married to his sister Camilla in the fourth panel
