Naglfar Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 He's gay. Just let him be gay. It's more interesting that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nocturnal YL Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Heather, on the other hand, is about as straight as your average circle. I laughed at this. Kyza is effeminate, that much is true. Whether he and/or Lyre actually love Ranulf, that I'm not sure. I think they're more like "vie for attention" than having any sort of actual feeling to him. And as for if Kyza is homosexual, the game never tells. It's almost like a default "yes" to the fans, lol. Little trivia: In the Japanese version, Kyza uses "atashi" as his first person pronoun.

"Atashi"? Not even "watashi"? That's overshot formal speech and well into canon gay territory, even without being so FABULOUS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's overshot formal speech and well into canon gay territory, even without being so FABULOUS. That's right. At one point when he and Lyre was fighting for Ranulf, he even said this: ライ隊長の愛は あたしのものよ! (Captain Ranulf's love is mine!)

In Japan, Birdo is a man who thinks he's a woman, while in our version Birdo is a girl, plain and simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That explains how effeminate he is, but... he doesn't dress quite like I'd expect a transsexual person to.

nocturnal YL Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Lol no, I think he means characters can change sexuality (or even gender in some cases) in different language versions. Happens to a lot of games or other kinds of media. Although Birdo is always female in Japan and transexual in overseas version at first, IIRC. In recent Mario games, though, they tend to simply adopt "gender uncertain" for all versions. Kyza dresses formally. That explains nothing about his sexuality.
