They needed to have a female model at least partially done for Fran, so it makes sense that they'd be done first, if only to build excitement with preorders opening in a few days. With Yoshida being so coy about them, I can only assume he's stringing people along and the males will be shown either tomorrow or at Tokyo.

I don't care one bit about male bunnies.

But he replied to people asking about males with "look forward to Japan" so I take it they're gonna show them in 2 months.

Hope that can lessen the salt for people trying to backlash against them lol

Also lol at the thought that they may just not be done with the models yet!

To design a new race you'd have to design and make a body and skeleton long before working on the gear and animations. I don't think they'd give themselves only a few months too start work on that.

This will be the first time anyone is seeing males of this race and they're a Japanese company ... Of course they will save some big reveals for the Japanese event.

This is the only thing keeping me from imploding with anxiety rn.
(Just kidding, my life is an endless vortex of terror)

We can look forward to another variant of viera that look like "young elezen". Also, we will have the option for bent ears.

I interpret this in two ways
1. We are getting two variations of viera just like how hyurs have two variants (midlanders and highlanders) - Tall viera that we saw in the trailer, and short viera that look like young elezen
2. The variation of viera they were talking about is really just a male viera - and it so happens that male viera tend to be shorter than female viera

You're just making me dislike Viera more than I already do.
