LoL SJWs going crazy over OP suggesting anima is going to be female, if you guys really believed gender was so irrelevant u wouldn't get so worked up when someone brings it up.

As far as anima goes I am not a ff series vet, I've only played 14 and a little bit of 15 and little bit of the 7 remake, but someone on Youtube suggested anima could be zenos's dead mother, I think that'd be pretty cool cause we don't know a whole lot about his mother other then she died and I love learning Garlean lore.

I feel like the SJW’s are the ones saying it HAS to be female because it was female on ffX which again, beings have had different genders throughout the ff series because again, they’re different universes, they don’t abide by the same laws as the others. Given what we know so far there’s a lot of evidence pointing to Anima actually being a certain someone and they’re NOT a female lmao

The word Anima itself is specifically female (the female version of Animus), so yeah Anima will most likely be female if it has any gender relevance at all.

That is in Jungian Psychology. Historically Anima was the soul and Animus the mind.

I really have no dog in this fight since I really don't care about what gender they make Anima, but let's not go throwing around mis or partial information here just to support our case. We have enough of that already.

So, half of your post here kind of makes no sense....what does Anima's Gender have to do with her being on FFXIV?

Because gender identity is an obsession for many people (mainly the lgbtq) nowadays.

Zenos mom duhhh

[Awha]

Zenos mom duhhh

I support this theory. That aside, I am out of touch with current events what is the difference between she and her? Don't they mean stand for the same thing?

And of COURSE this thread is going to devolve into discourse and idpol.

Which is somewhat cringe as FFX shows you Seymour's mother, her speaking about it to him, and her ultimate sacrifice to become the Final Aeon.

How DARE people with absolutely no context misgender the giant screaming chained up monster.


Cards on the table: Never played 10. I know the characters vaguely from watching snippets of other people playing.
You know what gender I thought Anima was?

Monster.

Cause giant screaming chained up monster.
