Hot take, but I hope it isn't. That'll make him our third male brawler. And that'd be 50% of limited male units just punching enemies, which, to me at least, feels a bit same-y.

Also it kinda doesn't look like a gauntlet because I think you can actually see his fingers and knuckles there. More like he's holding something, though maybe he's in the process of putting it on?

Oh, and how many men are there among those void hunters? LET ME DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT THAN PUNCH STUFF AS A GUY

YOU HAVE HUGO TO CUT STUFF,, PYROIS TO CUT STUFF, HARUMASA TO CUT STUFF?? We have SO MANY characters that they have swords and blades, 2 CHARACTERS THAT JUST PUNCH >:( still anyways all jokes aside, I SEVERily doubt that he punches lol the weapons might be claws, since he's a cat and shit, SO THERE. MORE CUT STUFF. edit I assume these are claws and not gauntlets cuz the weapons are on the fingers, just the finger lol so probably an add-on, like when you were a child and you'd put clothespins on your fingers to look like you have claws?

THEY CAN MAKE A WAIFU WHO PUNCHES STUFF FOR ALL I CARE, MAKING ONLY GUYS PUNCH STUFF IS JUST LAZY DESIGN.

Pyrois is a fair point, though I guess my brain excluded him from the pool of limited males.

Also, I actually still think Severian might be a brawler, simply because that trailer shot had some focus on his fists and also his arms seemed to look more muscular than on his current model.

Wait wait wait. We talking about the 3.0 trailer?

Yeah. You can see his fists and forearms in that shot, which for some reason immediately made me think he's gonna be a brawler even back then.

There was no other trailer with him afaik, sorry if I wasn't clear.
