This is sorta like complaining that a characters boobs are '' too big '' in a game with a crap ton of characters to me.
Not every character or whatever needs to adhere to what you want, just play something else.
I dunno tho, I just find these complaints very irritating personally.
Because I don't sit around complaining just because something doesn't adhere to what I want.
I do complain when what I like is taken away and changed to pander to others, but I think that's totally different ( and because I never demand that it's done for my sake either ).

A lot of Japanese games like these are sort of an escape from that to me too, because the Western industry is so completey infested with masculinity imo.
To the point that it often feels as if femininity is demonized in the West, even by so called '' progressive '' studios and publishers.
Not saying that masculinity is bad, I am a pretty masculine guy irl and probably the furthest away from what people would expect when they see my characters and what I like in games.
But it gets very tiresome when everything is so dark and '' gruff '' in the West, and then people still complain when there's exceptions to it that it's '' not masculine enough ''.

Dancer didn't appeal to me gameplay-wise, I thought that I'd love it but I didn't.
But aesthetically and animation-wise they're amazing imo, and I wouldn't want to see them be changed just because someone wants yet another masculine character number 999999999999999999999.
this is FARRRR from true. games are now far more feminist than masculine as most people play girls and guys are scarce. i think you need to get off your high horse and respect that men have rights too. There's nothing wrong with wanting more masculinity in game when 90% of the game focuses on feminist aspects
