I am just thinking in advance. I'm preparing for the worst possible outcome and it's better prepared than sorry.
Such a miserable ****load of asinine ****.

Look, I didn't exactly want to say anything about it but... that line of thinking is a bit toxic and I can't get behind wanting a character simply cause of what's between their legs or the shape and size and differences of their chest. I prefer the prospect of a character being fun to potentially play as in smash or being fun to play as or just generally liking them from their games.
If you count every instance of a playable female, just them, echo, duo, alt, etc. etc. there's 22 of them out of the whole 75/80 and that's honestly a whole lot more impressive and what can be said for most video games that exist. As I said though, I don't care if a character is a guy or girl or anything of that stuff, I just care that in the end whoever it is is fun to play as and someone is happy even if it's not who I specifically wanted.
So... I wouldn't be calling Nintendo 'sexist' or any of that **** or boycott them just because 5 additions to one game are male, more so when it's confirmed we're getting much more than five characters. It's understandable if you do genuinely like her and the prospect of her being playable but I'm gonna be honest it seems like you only care about KOS-MOS' inclusion because she's female and her inclusion would push some sort of gender politics you got going and I am genuinely sorry if I'm wrong on this. It just sounds as foolish as me potentially getting pissed off none of these DLC characters have been robots and I am only supporting KOS-MOS since she's technically a robot (which obviously isn't the case, I'm actually interested in how she'd play and even though I haven't played Xenosaga myself I've liked her from both Project X Zone Games, Namco x Capcom, Xenoblade 2 and the bit of cutscenes I've seen from the Xenosaga games).
Also, at the risk of even sounding the slightest bit sexist, which I hope those reading this will be able to understand that I'm not... if there is one thing us gamers hate the most besides anti-consumer things like loot boxes and EA and Bethesda's existence these days, even if we got our own views and such, its enforcing a political agenda that would ruin the enjoyment of others or ourselves and as I've said I got no problem with female characters or females in general, but hating, boycotting, etc. etc. and pushing it out there a game many like and the people who like those DLC characters regardless of gender just because out of a group of five none was girl is something we're just not gonna like unless you find some of the minority that thinks just because one DLC character was not female an entire game is sexist or an entire company is. If Nintendo was I'm pretty sure the female options for characters in smash would not exist and Metroid would not have ever allowed Samus to be female in the original Metroid and would've been as a male Boba Fett clone, Peach probably would've never gotten her own game among other things. If you're only here for gender politics, the door is right there behind you so you can go.
I don't believe in all the conspiracy theory crap with the symbols and stuff, but if it ain't KOS-MOS I'm not gonna cry and I'll congratulate the fans of whoever it is, those that aren't toxic to others anyways. Female or Male, animal or human, etc. etc.
Do know though, regardless of gender politics and stuff like that, even if by some small percent of happening none of the post-pass characters are girls either... next Smash Game there probably will be some, that can be confirmed as much. In fact, Smash Bros will continue adding in characters regardless of gender, race, species, body and shape, etc. etc. so potentially throwing a fit over a measly five characters in the bigger picture of things is just something I see as extremely childish.
Could've been worded better, but I just had to say this and I'm sorry for any trouble and feelings I hurt writing this and trouble I may be in with the staff because of it but I just felt like it needed to be said. Anyways, that's all I'm getting some sleep now.
