How would one stat Kamina in D&D 5e? On the one hand he seems awfully paladinish (powers from belief, helping others, manly fighting spirit, CHA based, etc.), on the other hand he also acts a lot like a bard (inspiring others, CHA based, little to no armor, etc.), and on the other other hand none of the paladin oaths or bard colleges really seem to fit him expect for maybe valor bard.Yes, I know, another system would be better for this, but the thought experiment is only interesting to me because of how counter-intuitive it is.

Bard. Kamina's whole thing is that he could talk a big game and inspire people but was himself not actually that good at fighting. Simon's a paladin, he's the one who gets results. Kamina's only value is in inspiring others.

In which Viral dominates the fight and it's only Yoko's supporting fire that drives him off and prevents the Dai-Gurren Brigade from reaching an early end.

He was blocking most of it and managed to slash Viral's face while only getting his arm and chest nicked.

He managed to pull off a sneak attack and was clearly struggling to keep up.
>trying to stat a character in 5e that isn't just a generic medieval fantasy trope
The system isn't built for it.

This, though we all know that this is an excuse to talk about anime.
