Magical Glace Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 It's been a couple years since I last played FE13 but I seriously don't get where people seem to see this. Like, he never seemed super feminine or anything like that to me. I'm just really confused what about him inspires that line of thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 People have mistook him for a fat lady and I can see why. He has purple hair and make-up, including lipstick and (maybe) nail polish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magical Glace Posted October 17, 2016 Author Share Posted October 17, 2016 I always thought he looked like a corrupt nobleman trying to give an impression of wealth. But thanks for explaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowofchaos Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 (edited) In Japanese they also use feminine sentence patterns. ...Heavily. They also had a female Japanese voice actor that had a pitched "ugly lady" type direction. Edited October 17, 2016 by shadowofchaos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterIceTeaPeach Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Honestly at the first moment his voice sounded like a woman to me, so I was also thinking he was a woman. I'm bad in identifying genders of anime characters to let you guys know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkDestr0yer61 Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 He reminds me of Professor Crowler from Yugioh GX. That being said, I never thought he was a girl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I blame the Lipstick, painted nails, polished nails, pinky ring and eye liner, personally. These. I thought he was a woman the first time I played. Then there was the eunuch implication.

I'm sure Spike Spencer would appreciate that. I never thought he was a woman. Just a really weird man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did the German version (which Jules played) of the game use different voices? I have no idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Topaz Light Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 (edited) Other people have already got it mostly covered, but it's mainly because of his rather feminine personal styling choices; mainly the hairstyle, lipstick, and eyeliner. I recall there actually being some confusion about his gender around when the game first came out, with people confirming he's a guy by observing that he uses male tome animations rather than female. Now that it's mentioned, I vaguely recall hearing about him using a very feminine mode of speech in Japanese. I honestly can't tell if that was dropped for the English version or not; they may have been going for something like that, but to me he honestly just comes off as a typical taunting, cocky, flamboyant villain type.

NinjaMonkey Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Appearance and the fact that Aversa all but confirms he's a eunuch. Thing is, in order to be a eunuch, you have to be male to start with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rezzy Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Thing is, in order to be a eunuch, you have to be male to start with. Yes, I think it was more that knowing he's a eunuch explains his fat, androgynous appearance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raguna Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 What surprises me is that we're discussing this now of all times. Nevertheless, I can see why he can be described as an ugly noblewoman type character just by appearance alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
