They roasted them over Paul's hair. They didn't change that. They'll probably just give you a customisation option where you can make his face look normal.
@@thatblindtekkenwarrior1177 lots of people kinda figured Paul's hair was customizable and harada came out within the week saying it was. This is probably how he's always going to look and when you've got Maximilian saying he looks bad you know it's bad. (Made it clearer)
@@coryyoung7544 I know it's hard to tell when something is a joke when it is in the written form. But no I do not think you're going to have a head swap customisation for Steve. It was a joke. Though if I'm being serious. I'm sure there is a customisation to put something stupid over his head so you can't see him at all.
5:29 In the long tweet of Harada, in the sentence about Leo in parenthesis, a more accurate translation of it is "It might not have come out publicly" where "it" refers to the fact that Leo likes coffee. The other part of the sentence is correct. So unfortunately we don't get a clue about it in this tweet. It is impossible to get the gender of someone in japanese unless specified by using the literal words "he" or "she" or the words for gender like man or woman, or using male names or female names etc. That exact sentence in a different context, without any changes, can be used to refer to a person ("he" or "she"), this is just how the language works. I hope this was helpful.
I like the idea of Leo being a Mulan type of character that hides the fact that she is dr Kliesen's daughter due to G-Corp. Explains why Leo is sometimes referred to as male as well and has some boyish characteristics. It makes the most logical sense to me and imo takes into account all the data without retcons or turning a blind eye to stuff like the swimsuit outfit in tag2. The story events of tag2 might not be canon, but those are still the same characters, just in what-if scenario's. At the end of the day, it's intentionally left somewhat ambiguous and open to interpretation.
eh, no. I still think it's incorrect to refer to them with any form of gender. it's open, sure, but I feel like Harada has made Leo aggressively neutral. most nonbinary character interpretations are very passive, there isn't a lot of statement about it and the character has neither traits, but Leo has a lot of both feminine and masculine traits. this doesn't make them a Mulan type character immediately, it means Harada, as stated, had two character designs to work with, combined the two and now aggressively shuts down anyone trying to afflict Leo with one gender or another it's honestly masterful.
Yea I can deal with Leo is born a female, but later in their life Leo transitioned to becoming more of a man, so Leo’s a transman. To me it’s that simple.
& as a reminder, I know hardly anyone remembers the characters stories in t7, but in T7 Leo or Yoshimitsu’s ending - Yoshimitsu calls Leo a “he”. So if that doesn’t confirm what Bamco lists Leo’s gender as. Idk what is
Masculine physique and now (don't remember how it was in past games) extremly masculine voice. Combined with the fact that the official german translation of the Tekken 8 website states that Leo is a male I wouldn't say that Leo is a female. Maybe trans or non binary but def not female
They made a statement after that reveal footage you showed redacting it and keeping Leo's gender ambiguous. While Leo launched as androgynous female their gender is now officially unknown. The content stating as such in Tekken 6 when Leo debuted is still there but they've officially retconned that since. So old footage like that is meaningless sadly.

Uhm. Nobody's "desperate". Leo has always been ambiguous since the very start. Harada said himself that "Leo is Leo". Leo WAS gonna be a woman called "Eleonore" but now they're neutral. There's no point in trying to confirm their gender at this point. It's been stated multiple times that their ambiguous. The male voice contributes to the gender ambiguity. That's the point. Yes, Leo had a bikini in TTT2, but guess what? The game is ✨ non-canon ✨. If you see Leo as a female, that's fine. But there's no point in debating over it because at the end of the day... Who gives a crap lol. Just play the game. Simple. Also, I'm LGBTQ myself (pansexual and use they/them pronouns as well). We're not "things". We're ✨PEOPLE✨. Just like you. At the end of the day, our sexualities and genders shouldn't bother anyone and yet, they do. That's what's really wrong with the world. No one can accept anyone. It's sad.

@@lunoahterry143You're not pansexual, they/them pronouns aren't real. They don't represent anything, you can't just identify as a they/them. You're either a boy or a girl.
@5:30 I'm no expert, I barely know anything japanese related just like the next guy, so I'm using only general culture with a bit of common sense here, but it's widely known that in japanese rarely do they use pronouns such as he/she/they/it so no, there's not a single pronoun in that part of the text: "あとTekken6の時点から レオはコーヒーが好き設定 (表には出たことはないかもしれないけれど、どっか攻略本とかには載っているかな?)" / "ato Tekken 6 no jiten kara Leo wa kouhii ga suki settei (hyou ni wa deta koto wa nai kamo shirenai keredo, dokka kouryakuhon to ka ni wa notte iru ka na?)". Google translate has to put a pronoun there because English demands it; In English you cannot say "although may never have said it publicly" without a subject because it would make no sense, but in Japanese, that kind of grammatical constuction is pretty normal. Maybe someone who speaks or has studied Japanese could elaborate it better.
@@DayHikari-fj5fk Most of the character models with the clothes completely removed look like Barbie and Ken dolls. You can usually only tell by the breast area but Leo doesn't seem to have a bust.
Such a clickbait. Speculations about trailer order and 13 years old reveal about female gender that many times already been corrected to neutral gender by devs themselves.
But you can also equip a shirt and swim shorts in the game also so just because Leo had a bikini doesn’t automatically mean Leo is a girl because Leo had a shirt with swim shorts. Leo is Leo.
Harada already confirmed her name as Eleonora Kielsen@@tkhashiroo also other male characters cant be equiped with 2 piece bikini. Leo is genetically, female . It was just designed to be male/androgenous
@@jettiful Yeah but in 2021 Harada made a tweet saying that Leo is Leo and we don’t know Leo’s gender and how it doesn’t matter because it’s your character.
Leo is nonbinary, that’s just the reality of it. Now please don’t come at me with this “liberal politics” and yadda yadda. Nonbinary means you don’t feel like a “male” or a “female”. They’re more in between- despite what others might see on the outside (in this case most people see Leo as a woman because of so-and-so reasons or the bikini in TT2 “solidifying” Leo’s gender rumors). I think the devs are doing a good job if this is still a conversation we’re having in 2023. And Leo has been nonbinary since their appearance so please don’t come at me with “your woke stuff” or w/e. They were nonbinary before nonbinary was a public and “cool” thing. So to dumb it down for people out there, outside, physically, Leo “is female”, but they don’t identify as female. They identify as neither and that’s why Leo is nonbinary. They don’t adhere to society’s rule of being binary. This is different than being a tomboy because although Leo dresses masculine, this is not the same thing.
@@BerninaPoubelle yeah but in the tweet Harada made in 2021 it says that Leo is Leo and that we don’t know Leo’s gender so just call Leo, Leo because we don’t their gender so were just supposed to say Leo not they\them only if it’s plural
Leo's gender changes every game. T6-Male TT2-Female T7-Female T8-Male All in all, the gender doesn’t really matter to an extent unless you’re crazy about character customizations and stuff. Just label Leo what ever you wanna label Leo as. I typical say Leo is female due to Leo’s full name and look. But Leo’s voice in Tekken 8 says different now lol 😂 (doesn’t sound too German compared to the other games).
@@FOXY_SPHYNXActually, if you paid attention, Harada & Murray have been goin’ back and forth about Leo’s gender for years. In the end Harada’s answer to it is “Leo is Leo” 🤷🏿♂️ So wtf I’m on is, payin’ attention to things lol.
@Sincerely_NUVO No. You're clearly not. Him saying "Leo is leo" isn't final say. If you paid attention you would know he doesn't have authority on what goes into tekken at yhe end of the day. Dude had to beg to greenlit T7 from the board of Bandai/Namco. 1 and 2 she's been female since her t6 debut. You've not played the games in the past. I'm assuming you're just another normie that came just playing tekken 7 and basing yout opinions from Twitter. You have no real arguments. GGs
It would be cool if they created a new character that fights on skating rings (edit: I meant roller skates) and could like cool flips and have a unique rage art and can have special intro for Alisa Is there a way we can submit our character ideas to namco?
@@MrDelwonb123 yeah i feel like they need to add more original chatacters with unique moves, it would just be hard figuring out how theyll fit into the story line 🤔
Leo is wearing the male golden suit in this game, and their voice is a bit deeper than before I'd say. Just pointing that out, my speculation points more towards male but honestly I'm so used to saying they/them pronouns so it's just whatever now
I remembered that harada said the real name of Leo, but i've never seen the video that he revealed the gender of Leo, because I didn't know that there was a video for this, so I was not sure at 100% on this thing. Now I have the confirmation, Leo was a female.
Yes, it’s that simple. Some people don’t wanna realize it. Leo is born female, but later on life life, they transitioned towards being a man [or, is gender-fluid - meaning they don’t care which gender they go by]. But if you ask me, Leo seems more masculine then feminine. Plus even Yoshimitsu called Leo a “he” in Tekken 7.
@@NicoMambino Initially Leo was seen as a girl, but that's more of a placeholder for Leo and instead made Leo gender ambiguous. I feel like Harada is teasing us with this to keep Leo'd gender a debate floating.
Dude, you made lots of Tekken videos about the lore, tweets, leaks etc, you played with the beta, you liked it, then you say you will pass Tekken 8. This doesn't make sense. If my mains would be DLC or skip Tekken 8, I would still buy the game. But this is not the case, you will have Yoshi and I think he will be fantastic.
I'm waiting for lee yoshimitsu and devil jin trailer i think those characters and there trailers are very important most of all yoshimitsu and devil jin and yoshimitsu specially devil jin because i think this time he's more important in story than past times if devil jin some how take control over jin and jin during the story should control him self and take control over devil jin
If you ever want to know Leo's gender, try to remove their top. All humanoid males can either equip shirtless or barbarian armor in Tekken 7, except guests... ...and bob. but if you want to use that to say bob is a woman, go ahead. Bobera is a strong independent woman who don't need no diet.
First of all, that's BS that you're not "sold" on the game. You've made a video on it almost every day. You're clearly going to buy it 😅 Also you spelled Wednesday wrong
Yeah Leo has been confirmed to be female. But it’s weird because the game itself still refers to her with some ambiguity with her gender, and folks still think she’s gender neutral. The devs said it themselves. Leo is a girl.
Then also stated years later that simply Leo is Leo. Most likely the character of Leo probably doesn't like labels or could be non binary. Sex assigned at birth was probably female, but Leo doesn't really seem to fit specific gender labels. Yes Leo has a bikini in Tag 2, but that game isn't canon which some people seem to forget when they say look Leo had a bikini in a game over a decade ago.
With that proportions... Leo looks like a male in this golden suit. The voice in the char trailer was also from a male. But I guess the discussion will never end... she, he... making me nuts.
What's wrong with Moonsault Slayer? He says he hasn't ordered Tekken 8 nor is he interested in purchasing it at the moment. He says: "Me personally, I haven't pre-orderded it yet. I'm just not sold on Tekken 8. I'm waiting to see Yoshimitsu's trailer to decide whether or not I'm gonna buy it. But for right now, it's looking like a hard pass." This guy religiously covers Tekken 8 news every week as if it's oxygen he needs to breathe but then says he's not interested in purchasing the game. ??? This guy contradicts his own lifestyle. But thanks for the Leo gender confirmation clip.
Actually he’s right if he’s telling the truth . Yoshimitsu is a specialist character along with lee and Steve who have loyal fan bases and with the horrible balancing in the CBT with asuka , Nina, Kazuya, law , and Xiaoyu… they might want to hold off buying the game until they see what they changed , took away, or dumbed down with the characters. Asuka and Nina died horrible deaths especially.

5:00 if you extract tekken 7 data, theres a common skin texture for males and texture for females, leo uses the female skin texture, but he's a he i believed.
YEAH.. That image was useful to finally understand it. I thought that she was a girl in Tekken 6 but after that internet confused me.. I reached the point to think that I could be watching a guy who looks too feminine. However. Girls tend to be SuperYoung in Tekken. Leo has 20. Perhaps it was obvious.

It's Leeee Chaaoolaang not Ley Shao Kan.
Thanks for commenting this. I genuinely didn't know why he was talking about Lei & Shao Kahn.
Lei Wulong+ Shao Kahn = Lee? Lmfao
Gatta be trolling when you said T8 is a hard pass atm for you 💀💀
It was probably an accident adding Feng in picture cause they may have wanted to show someone else for CBT but finished him first.
@5:30 I'm no expert, I barely know anything japanese related just like the next guy, so I'm using only general culture with a bit of common sense here, but it's widely known that in japanese rarely do they use pronouns such as he/she/they/it so no, there's not a single pronoun in that part of the text: "あとTekken6の時点から レオはコーヒーが好き設定
(表には出たことはないかもしれないけれど、どっか攻略本とかには載っているかな?)" / "ato Tekken 6 no jiten kara Leo wa kouhii ga suki settei (hyou ni wa deta koto wa nai kamo shirenai keredo, dokka kouryakuhon to ka ni wa notte iru ka na?)". Google translate has to put a pronoun there because English demands it; In English you cannot say "although may never have said it publicly" without a subject because it would make no sense, but in Japanese, that kind of grammatical constuction is pretty normal. Maybe someone who speaks or has studied Japanese could elaborate it better.
Indeed Windsday could be a very interesting day lol.
People here seem to think Leo is a female to male transition character. And they might be right.
Not really mate Her T7 nude mod reveals her model and has female body parts so she is biologically female and her voice is the same from t7
@@DayHikari-fj5fk Most of the character models with the clothes completely removed look like Barbie and Ken dolls.
You can usually only tell by the breast area but Leo doesn't seem to have a bust.
My read is non binary. Or just someone who doesn't like labels.
Yeah, don't push your stupid lgbt agenda here.
In the German tekken Leo is referred as male.
What even is Lei Shao Khan you talk about??
Just give leo a bikini like the ither girls and that would make people stop talking
And we think Yoshimitsu trailer gonna be First, Harada trick us with the order.
More like you're looking at the wrong order cause if Steve is next then they are following the order from the official roster website
Such a clickbait. Speculations about trailer order and 13 years old reveal about female gender that many times already been corrected to neutral gender by devs themselves.
Tekken Tag Tournament 2 already answered Leo's gender. You can equip a 2 piece bikini for her
But you can also equip a shirt and swim shorts in the game also so just because Leo had a bikini doesn’t automatically mean Leo is a girl because Leo had a shirt with swim shorts. Leo is Leo.
Harada already confirmed her name as Eleonora Kielsen@@tkhashiroo also other male characters cant be equiped with 2 piece bikini. Leo is genetically, female . It was just designed to be male/androgenous
@@jettiful Yeah but in 2021 Harada made a tweet saying that Leo is Leo and we don’t know Leo’s gender and how it doesn’t matter because it’s your character.
The next character will be announced is Steve Fox, right?
Honestly I always thought Leo was a Female because of the Name and Tomboy Look.
Leo is nonbinary, that’s just the reality of it. Now please don’t come at me with this “liberal politics” and yadda yadda. Nonbinary means you don’t feel like a “male” or a “female”. They’re more in between- despite what others might see on the outside (in this case most people see Leo as a woman because of so-and-so reasons or the bikini in TT2 “solidifying” Leo’s gender rumors). I think the devs are doing a good job if this is still a conversation we’re having in 2023. And Leo has been nonbinary since their appearance so please don’t come at me with “your woke stuff” or w/e. They were nonbinary before nonbinary was a public and “cool” thing. So to dumb it down for people out there, outside, physically, Leo “is female”, but they don’t identify as female. They identify as neither and that’s why Leo is nonbinary. They don’t adhere to society’s rule of being binary. This is different than being a tomboy because although Leo dresses masculine, this is not the same thing.
Completely agree!!
Non binary is a bs term, your either a man or a woman and just feel more masculine or femenine, you cant be none or the reverse.
Leo is not nonbinary Leo is Leo we don’t know Leo’s gender
@@tkhashiroo Even though Harada never mentions the word “nonbinary”, it alludes to that. Especially in interviews when Tekken 6 came out.
@@BerninaPoubelle yeah but in the tweet Harada made in 2021 it says that Leo is Leo and that we don’t know Leo’s gender so just call Leo, Leo because we don’t their gender so were just supposed to say Leo not they\them only if it’s plural
Eleanore was the original concept of the character, but now the character is Leo.
Leo is Leo.
Their gender is Leo.
No gender just Leo.
Wack

Harada said what her gender was years ago, but because people were somehow still confused, he just went with it lol
Leo was always a girl
its too late hes now a twink
Exactly !!!
Yeah but then people were fighting in the community so Harada just made Leo gender ambiguous with a tweet saying Leo is Leo
@@tkhashiroo You just repeated what I already said
@@Atomic-Punk no leo is leo means we just call leo, leo because we don’t their gender
Leo's gender changes every game.
T6-Male
TT2-Female
T7-Female
T8-Male
All in all, the gender doesn’t really matter to an extent unless you’re crazy about character customizations and stuff. Just label Leo what ever you wanna label Leo as. I typical say Leo is female due to Leo’s full name and look. But Leo’s voice in Tekken 8 says different now lol 😂 (doesn’t sound too German compared to the other games).
She's been female since t6 wtf you on
@@FOXY_SPHYNXActually, if you paid attention, Harada & Murray have been goin’ back and forth about Leo’s gender for years. In the end Harada’s answer to it is “Leo is Leo” 🤷🏿♂️ So wtf I’m on is, payin’ attention to things lol.
@Sincerely_NUVO No. You're clearly not. Him saying "Leo is leo" isn't final say. If you paid attention you would know he doesn't have authority on what goes into tekken at yhe end of the day. Dude had to beg to greenlit T7 from the board of Bandai/Namco. 1 and 2 she's been female since her t6 debut. You've not played the games in the past. I'm assuming you're just another normie that came just playing tekken 7 and basing yout opinions from Twitter. You have no real arguments. GGs
Leos a girl. Give her a bikini and people would shut up
@@Sincerely_NUVO no they didn't. He said she was a girl and that she was named Eleonore. Next . Move on
It's makes more to hold off on lee and alisa until the TWT world finals new stage appears in both
It would be cool if they created a new character that fights on skating rings (edit: I meant roller skates) and could like cool flips and have a unique rage art and can have special intro for Alisa
Is there a way we can submit our character ideas to namco?
You want an ice skating fighter play Dead or alive 6. “Akuma does just that” she’s originally from King of fighters I think
@@MrDelwonb123 omg I meant roller skates 🤣🤣🤣😭 my mistake
@@AJ-ex4tn lmao oh yeah that would be dope too!
@@MrDelwonb123 yeah i feel like they need to add more original chatacters with unique moves, it would just be hard figuring out how theyll fit into the story line 🤔
@@AJ-ex4tn Shaheen wasn't that difficult to fit into the story and I love everything about him 🖤🖤
you have to be trolling with that "hard pass" bro 😭😭😭
Leo is wearing the male golden suit in this game, and their voice is a bit deeper than before I'd say. Just pointing that out, my speculation points more towards male but honestly I'm so used to saying they/them pronouns so it's just whatever now
And he got dat bulge
Boo/Bies
Fuck pronouns.
@AlexThaGamer89Oh no a living language evolving, the horror.
@AlexThaGamer89 you know they has been in the English language for centuries right? Not our fault you don't know your own language
@AlexThaGamer89 I just said they/them it's not even like that because that can be used to address people to whom you don't know the gender
Tekken Tag 2 Leo had a female’s swimsuit as will
so The Game Awards won't be DLC and Story reveals?
I remembered that harada said the real name of Leo, but i've never seen the video that he revealed the gender of Leo, because I didn't know that there was a video for this, so I was not sure at 100% on this thing. Now I have the confirmation, Leo was a female.
Eleonora Kliesen, I believe that's what he said her name was. Harada was on stage to reveal that Leo was actually a girl.
@@joshuellecastillo9648Yeah but now Leo’s gender unknown and we don’t know anymore
Yes, it’s that simple. Some people don’t wanna realize it.
Leo is born female, but later on life life, they transitioned towards being a man [or, is gender-fluid - meaning they don’t care which gender they go by]. But if you ask me, Leo seems more masculine then feminine. Plus even Yoshimitsu called Leo a “he” in Tekken 7.
@@NicoMambino Initially Leo was seen as a girl, but that's more of a placeholder for Leo and instead made Leo gender ambiguous. I feel like Harada is teasing us with this to keep Leo'd gender a debate floating.
@@NicoMambino Leo isn't trans though.
You're getting free last name wrong
Update: Steve is actually after Leo
Dude, you made lots of Tekken videos about the lore, tweets, leaks etc, you played with the beta, you liked it, then you say you will pass Tekken 8. This doesn't make sense.
If my mains would be DLC or skip Tekken 8, I would still buy the game. But this is not the case, you will have Yoshi and I think he will be fantastic.
I wana see what these bears hittin on frfr we know everybody else can fight
Nina's ff3 has a clanking sounds if the opponent is MALE btw

I'm waiting for lee yoshimitsu and devil jin trailer i think those characters and there trailers are very important most of all yoshimitsu and devil jin and yoshimitsu specially devil jin because i think this time he's more important in story than past times if devil jin some how take control over jin and jin during the story should control him self and take control over devil jin
Devil jin is last and yoshimitsu later
If you ever want to know Leo's gender, try to remove their top. All humanoid males can either equip shirtless or barbarian armor in Tekken 7, except guests...
...and bob. but if you want to use that to say bob is a woman, go ahead. Bobera is a strong independent woman who don't need no diet.
First of all, that's BS that you're not "sold" on the game. You've made a video on it almost every day. You're clearly going to buy it 😅 Also you spelled Wednesday wrong
Yeah Leo has been confirmed to be female. But it’s weird because the game itself still refers to her with some ambiguity with her gender, and folks still think she’s gender neutral. The devs said it themselves. Leo is a girl.
Then also stated years later that simply Leo is Leo. Most likely the character of Leo probably doesn't like labels or could be non binary. Sex assigned at birth was probably female, but Leo doesn't really seem to fit specific gender labels. Yes Leo has a bikini in Tag 2, but that game isn't canon which some people seem to forget when they say look Leo had a bikini in a game over a decade ago.
Yeah. Sticking with Leo being a girl.
"T8 looking like a hard pass?" 😂 Sir, don't lie to your viewers. That time you're making T8 videos left and right 🤣
With that proportions... Leo looks like a male in this golden suit. The voice in the char trailer was also from a male. But I guess the discussion will never end... she, he... making me nuts.
That lee shao khan tho...mortal ..kkoommmbaatt!!!!
I would say Leo is a guy because in one of the tekken games i remember it showing a still cutscene and it said he enters the tournament
I Tekken tag 2 she have a bikini custom. Harada already said it it's a female 😅
Hmmm check out tekken 7 for his bio says he entered the tournament to uncover more about his deceased mother
@@WolfHero also tekken tag games from harada mouth aren't canon at all
Her name is literally short for Eleonora, dunno why all the gender discussion. Haven't seen a guy named Eleonora ever.
@@acesworld320what do you mean it is not canon if he said it 💀. He is literally the head of this franchise. If it is to trust someone it's him.
If Leo revealed then next Yoshimitsu
What's wrong with Moonsault Slayer? He says he hasn't ordered Tekken 8 nor is he interested in purchasing it at the moment.
He says:
"Me personally, I haven't pre-orderded it yet. I'm just not sold on Tekken 8. I'm waiting to see Yoshimitsu's trailer to decide whether or not I'm gonna buy it. But for right now, it's looking like a hard pass."
This guy religiously covers Tekken 8 news every week as if it's oxygen he needs to breathe but then says he's not interested in purchasing the game. ???
This guy contradicts his own lifestyle.
But thanks for the Leo gender confirmation clip.
Actually he’s right if he’s telling the truth . Yoshimitsu is a specialist character along with lee and Steve who have loyal fan bases and with the horrible balancing in the CBT with asuka , Nina, Kazuya, law , and Xiaoyu… they might want to hold off buying the game until they see what they changed , took away, or dumbed down with the characters. Asuka and Nina died horrible deaths especially.
I wasn’t cheering for yoshmitsu I was cheering for everyone!!!!!
Love the content keep it man
Feng Wei is there because he was announced after them
We see another Feng trailer?
@@matteomiriello1661 No. I'm just saying why he's there despite already getting a trailer already. It's because he was revealed after Steve, Dragunov, etc.

as long as the person is part of the roster. end of story.
So Leo is just like Azucena, huh?
This whole gender bs is getting out of hand people just need to get over it I always thought Leo was a female.
Only thing I know is that Tekken 7 moders think Leo is a chick
you capping about saying Tekken 8 is a hard pass for you bruh 🤣🤣🤣 your channel is about tekken.. what you gunna talk about if you dont get tekken 8... tekken 7? 🤣🤣🤣
No comments!? Omg. Kool vid
Wait a minute. You cover this game so much but you not buying it? That’s surprising
Leo is gender neutral also in the bio leo is leo an doesn't care about the gender roles which is why I love leo
Leo started off as a girl in T6 and TTT2, and has been a guy since T7. Simple as that
No … she’s always been a woman. Never changed, some people still get confused by this but yet Harada just decided to leave it up to us to figure it out or choose smh lol
@@solokingniquedagamer as an avid Tekken player who looks at context, I can see where she started off at and where Bandai Namco made the transition.

5:00 if you extract tekken 7 data, theres a common skin texture for males and texture for females,
leo uses the female skin texture, but he's a he i believed.
so,no more debates about leo's gender.LEO IS A FEMALE.
Windsday??!!
Lol. I need you to know how to pronounce Lee Chaolons name. Lmao. Who tf is Lei Shao Kahn?
She likes”coffee” aka black men
Leo is a girl. She's wears a bikini in TTT2.
YEAH.. That image was useful to finally understand it.
I thought that she was a girl in Tekken 6 but after that internet confused me.. I reached the point to think that I could be watching a guy who looks too feminine.
However. Girls tend to be SuperYoung in Tekken. Leo has 20. Perhaps it was obvious.
Men can wear bikini too...

@@joshuellecastillo9648 That doesn't tell the whole story. Hormones can make boobs grow on males, as does something like gynecomastia or someone can even put breast prostheses so that's not much to go on.

bruh stop saying Lee Shao Khan its Chaolan ...Aint funny
I can deal with Leo is born a female, but later in their life Leo transitioned to becoming more of a man, so Leo’s a trans-man. To me it’s that simple.
Hmm. Nah. Rather not.
Leo is always Girl😊❤
I keep hearing you say Shao Khan
