Male Viera as a playable character! show your support

[Lauront]

Although I support the cause, the amount of art posted without crediting the artist is a little worrisome.

I know most people are interested in feminine/petite male Viera, but what about body types like Yarne from Fire Emblem Awakening?

Not "most".

And they've also been described by yoshida as being slim, handsome, elegant, and elezen like. Matsuno when asked said he thought they'd just be highlander with rabbit ears. At the end of the day the only thing we have to go on is concept art, nobody's hijacking anything because we have no way of knowing concretely what they'll look like if they're added at all.

Yes but it does give a pretty good indication of the range they're considering which, if they want to stay quite close to the females, just bigger, will be between elezen and highlanders/au ra. I'd be quite surprised if they drastically deviate from the concept art. I think a wide slider is a good compromise, and one they might opt for, to avoid deviating too much from the above-mentioned body types.
