Futaba makes a few minor appearances in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate:

  • She appears as a Novice(★) Support spirit with the skill Critical-Health Attack ↑
  • She appears as a background character in the Mementos DLC stage
  • One of her All-Out Attack voice lines can play during Joker's Final Smash
  • One of her victory quotes can play on Joker's victory screen

Trivia

  • Erica Lindback, Futaba's English voice actress has said in an interview she tried to play Futaba "like she was on the autism spectrum" in order to make her performance more "grounded".[1]
  • In Persona 5, Futaba tells Joker goodbye by saying サラダバーSalad bar (Sarada bā) instead of さらばだGoodbye (Saraba da). This expression is thought to originate from Shin's death scene in Fist of the North Star where the echo on his voice acting makes it sound like he is saying sarada bā. Futaba's use of it became popular with fans, with COSPA releasing a shirt of Futaba with the phrase and she ended up saying it again in Strikers. In English, the line is translated as, "Make like a tree and leaf".
  • For the 30th anniversary celebration of the Persona series at Sea Paradise, Futaba is drawn with a trio of spotted garden eels.

Nomenclature

The family name derives from the placename Sakura, likely meaning either "hemp warehouse" or "clean warehouse".[2] The given name, Futaba, means "seedling", as in the first two-leaved sprout from a dicot seed.
