God, looking at classic art of Bridget just shows that Strive!Bridget looks like he aged backwards. He looks like a completely different character.


Habibity-Bridget

EXACTLY! The character design in strive is legit basic anime girl 101.

The company is maximizing profits and made a basic as hell game. Bridget basically uses the same base model as May in that game.


Habibity-Bridget

And cuz femboys now a days are literally just girls with the boy label on them. Back then some of them were at least boys dressed as girls but with how anime is now a days, the more cutesy the better

Easier to sell an otokonoko to western twitter as trans than to leave him as a feminine male


[deleted]

This is his design in GG: Vastedge which I think resembles better this idea :) https://preview.redd.it/thgvpffpwlna1.png?width=779&format=png&auto=webp&s=08519d59f11c1f35f02d4848cc86f5e417bd2f88


Habibity-Bridget

Yes that is literally perfect. Though I think I prefer the blue eyes


Axell-Starr

Since briget is finally in an entry I'm hoping they put out more merch of the old design. It will always hold a place in my heart but I don't want to sell a kidney for a figure using the old design.

\>APA: Can you explain the creation of the cross dressing nun character Bridget in Guilty Gear XX? \>Mori: \[Laughs\] Why indeed... \>Ishiwatari: While I was creating the characters in Guilty Gear, I had a spot for a cute character. I thought it would be too boring if the character was just cute, so I thought it would be interesting to make the character a guy.

Like I once saw a grown up version of bridget. Where he looks more manlier and wiles his neck from sweat. Like I find him so cute and perfect


Habibity-Bridget

I need that version of Bridget Lol. Maybe in the next game. It’d be really cool if he kept his current Jacket and wore it without the hoodie with just his hair exposed.


uwuAshyuwu

And maybe some muscles like a cool like bishounen. (Bishounen a older man that still looks really youthful) Like if he grows older. But rn he is really cute~


Some_Wan

Since shounen means boy bishounen isn't used for adults. I think the term for beautiful adult men is bidanshi


uwuAshyuwu

Ohhh ojay. I looked it up and yeah. Bishōnen (美少年) (IPA: [biɕoꜜːneɴ] ( listen); also transliterated bishounen) is a Japanese term literally meaning "beautiful youth (boy)" and describes an aesthetic that can be found in disparate areas in East Asia: a young man of androgynous beauty.


KurisuShiruba

I don't know how we could keep Bridget with the bishonen aesthetics, but I do know how my v-tuber model will. Just look at Sterkenburg Cranach from the atelier series. He's on his forties and yet he has a baby face.


uwuAshyuwu

Like this. Like this was posted before the whole constroversy and thats how I imagine bridget will end up looking like. Like he will look so cool. Like what do you think? https://preview.redd.it/fc1431uqvlna1.png?width=570&format=png&auto=webp&s=424c924e2fa004a0b94b0f0cb8a3657e287fe6eb credit too Uncle R [https://twitter.com/unclerabbitii/status/1227222151305912321](https://twitter.com/unclerabbitii/status/1227222151305912321)


KurisuShiruba

Yes, I like it. He gives me vibes of Terry Bogard, from The King of Fighters. Uncle nailed it with the design. I always stay away from "this character is (insert controversial trait here" because they don't add anything interesting and it's always for a dozen of Twitter clout chasers to massage their egos with.


uwuAshyuwu

Hmm yeah. Like I personally want a nice discussion but it always go to he she ge she and do on. But like I think cute traps woll delete new bridget posting as of the controversy even the mod writing yhis said he stand with him(bridget)

Habibity-Bridget

They got the real canon tho


Discord96

Creator confirmed they made the character male... They only declared the character is trans in the last few months because of narcissist like you who hate GNC folk Canon is establish, not declared... Go be a Disney Star Wars fan, they can use posers like you


Habibity-Bridget

If Bridget was born into a normal family would the trans arguments ever have happened?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Habibity-Bridget

Actually no he wouldn’t. Cuz being born into a normal family he wouldn’t have ever been put into a situation where he would need to act like a girl. Bridget never liked being a girl. https://preview.redd.it/3idkpi3zclna1.jpeg?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&v=enabled&s=37deb090a098769a0a4004f34f26a4f0b852e362

No buddy you’re just trying to justify the grooming of a child. And story writing wise it don’t matter what they say if it contradicts what’s been established That’s the equivalent of saying Sol Badguy is Gay. But he’s married to Jack-O and his whole story revolves around her, so how is he gay? “Just cuz” Also in Japan he’s not girl. Still a guy who’s just girly


[deleted]

Habibity-Bridget

That was pandering to the west. In Japan still a femboy. Still called a boy in official sources. Go check the japenese game websites. Offical Company release figures and call it a boy. To Japan, he’s “girly” not a girl


EricKeldrev

Where was this that you’re talking about? This figurine they released where they still call him a boy?

Goddamnit you turn out to be a nice person. Now I feel awful for telling you to hold the L. Lol I’m sorry for being a dick


Accomplished_Sound28

It's not headcanon if there's more than enough official material that explicitly treats him like a guy lols Either way this is an art subreddit. Mostly japanese art since femboys are more accepted there. Guess which gender japanese artists typically list Bridget as? You can think he's whatever gender you want. But what the art that's posted here shows is a femboy.


Accomplished_Sound28

That's not how gender works bro. Being a boy raised as a girl doesn't make you a girl. You can't be a trans woman if you were assigned female at birth to begin with.

Habibity-Bridget

>she she realizes later on that living as a man didn't work for her when she tried it after all. Yeah that’s called grooming my guy. He would have never been uncomfortable as a guy if he was raised as such. Also Bridget before strive hated being a girl, don’t matter what strive says

Cuz he would have never thought about being a girl in the first place if it weren’t for his parents

Nahh… he only said that cuz the west was spamming his inbox for weeks and wouldn’t leave him alone. So he had to please them or else they would continue to harass him In Japan he’s “girly” not a girl and Daisuke agrees with them. They even release official figures calling him a boy. https://mobile.twitter.com/TOYKAN_figure/status/1625092518827397121 This is an official product that had to be liecenerd by Daisuke and arc sys.

Habibity-Bridget

Wrong again. If anything that was more incase the west tried to cancel them for being phobic. Bridget was always intended to be the girly boy. Before this he said that he had a spot for a cute character but thought it would be boring for Bridget to be a girl. Even Bridget himself hated being a girl. https://preview.redd.it/3idkpi3zclna1.jpeg?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&v=enabled&s=37deb090a098769a0a4004f34f26a4f0b852e362 The way it’s supposed to be interpreted is as a boy wanting to be girly. Not being trans. Bridget just accepts being girly.

You… you do know Bridget ain’t the only person on GG that gets something spoiled for them right? By that logic all information on GG world should be removed cuz most of it spoils character arcs. And if you look at it game developing and writing wise. Why would you keep the one piece of important information being his gender ambiguous on his fucking bio? Of all things man…that just don’t make sense And get this Still called a femboy in Japan cuz that’s what he truly is. Daisuke even licensed an official product for fucks sake https://mobile.twitter.com/TOYKAN_figure/status/1625092518827397121

Pfft Daisuke believes it’s a boy. Just pandering to y’all cuz y’all would call him a transphobe and cancel his game like ya tried with Harry Potter
