Okay, I'm gonna have to clear this up because I keep seeing people say Katt's a mercenary. She's never been a mercenary. She was part of a delinquent group with Falco, called a "bousouzoku" which is basically Japanese for biker gang. Falco was the leader and it was called FREE AS A BIRD. She's not a military person, she's a floozy biker chick, except the "bike" is a space jet.
Ah OK, thanks for the correction. I must have been confusing elements of the My Beloved Falco manga in my head.
 
Star Fox is the only Nintendo franchise I'm even remotely interested in beyond a passive awareness of, so this one isn't nearly as funny to me. Despite that, I can definitely see the resemblance and I'm almost certain it was at least partially an inspiration after watching it.
Star Fox’s the one series alongside F-Zero and Pokemon I love from Nintendo.

Then again, my F-Zero fixation is also a thing.

I liked Pokemon as a kid, but I haven't cared about it since I was in elementary school, and given I'm a Zoomer who grew up in the early 2000s you'd be hard-pressed to find someone my age who didn't like Pokemon growing up. I know absolutely nothing about F-Zero whatsoever and could not tell you a single thing about it even if my life depended upon it. Truth is, I've never been much of a gamer at any point in my life and I really only became a fan of Star Fox through looking at fan art on the internet and watching other people's playthroughs of the games later to fill me in on the context. The games themselves have never really mattered to me as much as the world and characters featured within them, and I have a feeling that probably puts me at odds with a lot of the other people in this thread in terms of what I expect from Star Fox. I'm sure people are going to start calling me a tourist or viewing me as a fake fan after I've admitted this, but I figured being honest about it would be the most respectable thing to do at this point, and I hope people will appreciate that at least.
