I've never heard of this term, but I don't play defenders too much. - Snorii 07:25, 9 April 2007 (PDT)

News to me, too. Seems more like an inside joke that got out. "furu-tsusarada-do"? Sounds like supplies/surprise. --Konoko 07:34, 9 April 2007 (PDT)

"Furu-tsusarada" is the romanization in Japanese of "fruits salad," though I'm sure they have native words for the concept. So "furu-tsusarada-do" (lit. fruits salad style) is trying to make it sound like a fighting style. ("Fruit" would have been "furuto".) This seems like one of those "tell joke, explain joke, ... laugh," kind of moments. --Lin Chiao Feng 08:04, 9 April 2007 (PDT)

I play defenders. I have never heard this term before either. There's not much to the page to even know what type of player/playstyle is actually being described. I smell a hoax, or something someone just invented and are trying to push out there. - Sister Leortha 08:16, 9 April 2007 (PDT)

Ok. Here and (supposedly) here is the origin of this term. While I have not even tried to work through the massive thread, just glancing at those two, this is apparently a CoH forum meme. Like "Kill Skuls" - Sister Leortha 09:45, 9 April 2007 (PDT)
