SE thanks for making this event not gender locked

more options is always better

Yeah. That would have felt really stupid if we could only wear the flowers or only wear the monocle. Good on them to let us choose.

I mean ... can you point out an example of flowers or monocles ever being gender locked outside of that 1 male only mog glam?

Makai Moon Guide's Circlet = flowers exclusive for female healers

Sooooo just a head gear from a PVP collaboration event with the Garo tv show where in much of the gear is gender locked to I assume stay true to the source materiel?

Given how the devs treat all flowers outside of that event I see no reason to think these would be female only.

Last year's flower crowns were essentially gender-locked. The base designs are different, and the male version is fully dyeable while half the flowers on the female version are permanently bright pink.

I feel like that's enough precedent to anticipate that when this year announced two prizes available instead of one, and there is a "masculine" and "feminine" item, that they might be forced counterparts instead of free-for-all.

Doubly so when we've just had the Valentione sets being separate locked items, including the hats.

Also the Makai Marksman monocle opposite the also-gender-locked butterfly hairpin.

And the Sun Guide counterpart to the flower circlet is a headband, not a monocle, but is still gender-locked headgear.

I wouldn't mind being able to wear the butler glamour set as a female character. Though we would have to let guys wear the maid uniform to be fair. And that just brings up horrible scenes I have witnessed in anime and manga... >.>

This is nonsense.
1- This game's devs have given yall zero reason to think that flowers are too "feminine" for men in their eyes.
2- It is completely common place to change models some to suit different genders. The flower crown is a flower crown regardless of the differences. It's not like they turned it into a crown of thorns for men O_o
3- The reward from this event is no different than last year were males get different model that suits them more.

(Unless you think I can't count that dudes get 3 flowers compared to the female 5 ... or tell that these flowers are fairly different flowers ...).

So again, I have no clue why people are fake praising them only to set themselves up to be butt blasted mad again about another gender locking when the devs decide to make something cute for women and give dude something that doesn't leave most dudes feeling left out or with something that would look like crossplay.

So more Garo TV show gender locked sets as examples (which I assume are linked to characters in the show that match those genders)?
It's almost like they made much of that collaboration event's gear gender locked for a reason.

Why are you like.... so mad. People are saying "hey thanks for letting us wear both of these in identical ways regardless of character gender" and you're getting all ruffled about how there's no reason to thank SE for that? I hope you don't see everything this negatively.

I don't care - at all - about gender restrictions and who can wear what and who can't. But I'm glad you who do care are getting more content.
