So GBF’s main quest just updated and, for the first time in what feels like 2,141,251 years, we finally get Byleistr Arcus’ appearance. Maybe some people don’t know this, but even though I’m not really into GBF anymore, I used to be super into it back around 2016. The reason I’m writing this isn’t because I’m a Byleistr fan or anything, but because he’s directly tied to my absolute favorite character(basically my kamioshi at this point) and he's Loki. Yes, Loki is one of my all-time favorite characters in the entire series. I love him so much that it overrides my contempt for the franchise. Proof? The fact that I still pay attention to the main story (not the events) should be enough of a clue. Loki is the one anchor keeping me tied to this pile of mess of a series.

I've always wanted to talk about this for a while, and it really bothers me how A's existence is always revolved around her/their gender. it gets even worse since art books reveals. That A character is just being reduced to her gender identity, make me sad, actually.

I know not everyone agrees with me, and that's fine, but I just want to share my thoughts on this matter. I feel A's gender doesn't matter much in the grand scheme of things. (I watched Luxin's video, and I feel "A is a woman whose gender is a Monado" describes it much better.) Also, A being a "woman" doesn't erase any queerness in it.

For a heads-up, I think of A as a bigender woman. This also applies to any Ontos instantiation—they are bigender, including Alvis, whom I see as a bigender man. For pronouns, I use she/her just for convenience and sometimes they/them.

Disclaimer: this is just my interpretation & not intended as a fact, This is purely my analysis based on canon material in the game & side-material such as art books.
