==Interlude==
Ringmaster: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to my arena where there's no rules, no research, only bloodshed! I am Ringmaster, your announcer, your host extraordinaire for this extravaganza, and let me welcome you to the EXHIBITION!!! In today's match, we have two mighty women who powered through the patriarchy to save the day! In this corner, we have Disney's most badass princess, the defeater of Huns, the savior of China, MULAN!!! And in the other corner, we have the time traveler, the princess, my Smash main, LUCINA!!! Now let's take a look at what makes these two sword-swinging ladies so special!
==Comparison==
Ringmaster: So basically, Mulan ran away from home to escape the patriarchy and become as mysterious as the dark side of the moon~, whatever that has to do with fighting, I don't know. She joined the army, saved her country, and even put an end to the greatest empire to span Eurasia! Sorry, Romans... and let's not forget that she did all this in the most intricate disguise ever...
We see an animation of Ringmaster wearing makeup as he ties his hair, shake off his makeup, and coughing.
Ringmaster: Essentially consisting of tying up her hair, not painting up her face, and talking like she smokes ten packs a day. (coughs) That was apparently enough to fool the entire Chinese army, but I guess they are warriors and not detectives after all. In the other corner, we have Lucina...
We see an animation of Ringmaster going through a portal and what came out was a computer with Ringmaster holding a rose along with the title, "Doki Doki Ringmaster".
Ringmaster: Whom is a time-traveling wizard stuck in a dating sim. She does things we can all relate to like preventing conquests, and saving kingdoms, and, uh... yeah okay, she's not relatable. Eh, maybe to move on because Lucina also disguised herself as a dude!
We cut to Ringmaster.
Ringmaster: And what was her genius disguise, you might ask? Well, she simply chopped up her hair, donned a mask to fool a bunch of people who clearly don't ask questions! Now will we see some awesome sword-on-sword action? Yes, yes we will, of course! Where else would we be here? Heh. So, without further ado, let the exhibition... BEGIN!!!

==Trivia==
===Production===
*The connections between Mulan and Lucina are that they are both brave, loyal swordswomen heroines who disguised themselves as male warriors going into war. Both wanted to be like their legendary fathers (Fa Zhou and Chrom, respectively) and wanted to save their homeland (China and Ylisse, respectively) from threats of ultimate evils (Shan Yu and Grima, respectively). Both disguised themselves as men and took their father's swords in order fight in a big war after their fathers were left in a state where they couldn't fight (Fa Zhou became too old to fight while Chrom died to Grima). Both of their true gender identities were revealed during a battle, which led them to accept their true identities to continue fighting. Both look up to and respect their ancestors (the Fa Family Ancestors and Marth, respectively) and also have friendly dragon companions who were previously friends to the ancestors they respect (Mushu and Tiki, respectively).
===Easter Eggs===
*When Ringmaster calls Fire Emblem a dating sim, a computer that reads "Doki Doki Ring Master" is shown, referencing Doki Doki Literature Club.
*As confirmed by one the episode's animators, Anh Thu Duong, the way Mulan dies in the True Ending is a direct reference to two series' kills; the meat hook being stabbed into Mulan's eye is a reference to Roy Carson's death in Final Destination 5, while the drop into the fan is a reference to the bad ending of Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee.
===Errors===
*The brand in Lucina's eye is missing in the close-up shot of her.
