Not ax expert on the matter, but... https://www.mariowiki.com/vivian It puzzle me to no end that in Italy, the country where we have the fucking Vatican in, they did not hide in the slightest that she is trans, but they did in the US.

It's why I was happy Fates included gay marriage options even though they weren't very good; we probably wouldn't have what we do in Three Houses without it. That's why I said what I did, because if we do get trans representation in the next ten years from Nintendo it probably won't be good. Whether it's better than nothing is up to oneself. And @everyone yes I hear your mentions of Vivian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly any actual trans rep would be better than the "guy mistaken as girl" that we get with Libra and Forrest. actually, it might be possible to take that trope and change it into actual trans rep in future games. 22 minutes ago, Cyan1456 said: But anyways I'm crossing my fingers at the faint hope that the third option will be Ashe. Or maybe Felix, Sylvain and Dmitri. It's unlikely that they've added same sex s support for blue lions since we saw that screenshot, but I think that it's even less likely that Sylvain will be bi because of his personality and personal skill.

Clathy Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Wow, if this is true (I'm still doubtful about it, it seems surreal), it really might be one of the best entries of the series. I'm so happy about it. Bisexual characters ?? Several bisexual characters ??? Several bisexual important characters ???? Am I dreaming ? I just needed that to say that I'll enjoy the hell out of this game. If I was nitpicky, I would say that I would have loved for the characters to have bisexual relationships between each other, and not just toward Byleth. And I hope that S-support is not just for Byleth, that would be a shame. But well, that's super good news nonetheless. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firewitch912 Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 I just found another set of arrows. Marianne has them for both Lorenz and Ferdinand. However they appear over C instead of A. Now I'm really curious about what they mean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LorisaGoldfish Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Edelgard and Claude both being bi is awesome! I wish they would've included Dimitri as well though, especially since there seemingly aren't any male bi characters in the blue lions. Unless there's a character that shows up or a relationship that unlocks after the timeskip. Love all the female options though, except Sothis I guess 😛 I'll definitely be romancing Edelgard in my Black Eagles playthrough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Etrurian emperor Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 As far as trans representation goes there's indeed Vivian from Paper Mario, but I'm not sure she counts considering most versions of the game refuse to acknowledge she's trans. I was certainly surprised upon finding out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azz Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 (edited) Well big oof... Spoiler I like Linhardt so I'm fine with him and I'm also a fan of Alois (despite the fact he seems to have a wife??? (presumed deceased I guess lol) and a child) but Gilbert? He seems like a weird choice to me. Overall I'm not gonna complain, they could've given us nothing and hopefully the supports (especially with Alois since he will be who I marry) is cute. Though since Edelgard is an option, I really don't see why Dimitri and Claude couldn't have been. That way even, the supports would be an even 5:5. Also speaking of trans rep, everyone seems to forget Kyza/Kysha from RD. Them being trans was JPN version only, but it still happened (they used traditionally female pronouns and also had a crush on Ranulf (it's why them and Lyra were rivals pretty much)). Tellius in general had decent LGBT rep even if it is mostly stereotypes that are very dated. Edited July 12, 2019 by Azz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linhardt's grown on me a lot, so he's probably my favorite of the bunch (though that might change later). It would be cool if more S supports are unlocked after the timeskip, but I'm not going to get my hopes up (again). Maybe there will be other characters that they aren't allowed to talk about though.

LorisaGoldfish Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 Spoiler Wow Gilbert seems totally out of left field. And Alois despite his wife and kid?

EJ107 Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 Spoiler Gilbert is an odd choice, can't say I feel anything for him as as an option. Alois is cute though, I'm happy to pair him with Byleth. A bit confused about the whole wife thing, but im assuming his wife dies at some point during the course of the game.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
