Wait, have you actually got to see it? The people I've seen talking about seem to backtrack and say things like how they couldn't actually remember her hair color.
I want it to be true so bad. ;_;
I wish I did so I could show you. I only know Pink Pit is popular, Palutena's hair color seems to be the same in every costume *sadface* but was told of a Viridi outfit.
The Japanese liking Pit is probably the reason Dark Pit is in the game too. Why have one angel when you have two?
I remember one of the reasons for Pit being popular in Brawl is because the Japanese fangirls have a thing with angels. Add the fact Pit has bishounen design and the fangirls go crazy.
I'm almost sure the inclusion of Lucina and Dark Pit as last minute clones is because they are very popular in Japan. It's pandering.
It's a promotional trailer featuring J-pop band AKB48. Like I said a few pages ago, J-pop groups involved with the game's marketing is a really big deal in Japan.
At least regular Pit will still get some love from the fangirls you mentioned, that lucky Pit. I still kinda have issues with "darker" variants of characters though, especially if they turn out to be clones or something else. We'll see how the dark one is when the game's out, but I'm certain I'll still love Pit more, and Palutena of course.
I need more data as always. All the Pit and Palutena data shall be mine! Guide me to the light!
