Oh for fucks sake I remember this, this whole process repeated for Rougefort, Cinnamon, Raspberry, and Cream Unicorn. Everyone still is adamant all 4 I mentioned are "they/them nonbinary only!!" and the fan wikia pages all say so I'm pretty sure, even though Japanese versions refer to them as male or (imagine my shock) they're just dudes with long hair.
Gonna spoiler, but these are the four that I mentioned in order
It's so telling how sexist most tumblr tards are that the men w/long hair or feminine color schemes = not actually dudes. I remember w/Rougefort's release it was the same "issue" as Dark Choco. He's a jewel thief criminal and his whole shtick is being "mysterious" so ofc they'll use non-specific pronouns, but speds can't understand that.
Cinnamon's deal was the hair and magic being the reason he's nonbinary?
Raspberry has long hair and a crush on another cookie (who is female) so he is either a "Nonbinary Lesbian" or a "He/Him Lesbian"
Cream Unicorn is just feminine so obviously not A Real Man according to Tumblr.
But that's the ones I've been most in the know for, I know there are even older characters (as far back as I think 2014) where people screeched about gender. specifically for characters meant to be children (see Peppermint and Pancake).
So a whole lot of tism for a mobile game.
