With new reveals in the latest Zelda game that some residents of Hyrule might be descended from the Zonai, reporters asked creator Shigeru Miyamoto if Link’s origins were with the Zonai too. He explained, “It’s Hylian likely.”

honest to goodness if shigeru miyamoto teleported into my room t posing at 4 am and told me three houses is getting an update and i could choose one change to make to the game

while i Should say something like. less repetitive white clouds or longer crimson flower. i would absolutely ignore that and instead beg mr miyamoto to add more diverse body types and make dorothea, hilda, and mercedes fat

an unfortunate truth is that many anime styled games fear using more than a few slim or fit body types, as they know making "obligatory beauty standard characters" is an easy way to sell. and when they do make characters with somewhat different shapes and sizes, theyre always a very irrelevant side character (such as candace from fates) or just. not popular. at all. i mean raphael's body type isnt really anything mind blowing but wow do i never see anyone talk about him

i also choose these three in particular as it just., makes sense

many opera singers in such times are fat, as from what ive read it changes their vocal chords in a way that helps singing. also, in medieval times, fat people were often seen as a beauty standard. dorothea is a beloved opera singer seen as beautiful in a game with a medieval setting.. and that slim body type makes NOOO sense. absolutely zero sense.

hilda is in a similar case of also being seen as beautiful by most of garreg mach. this one does fall into a bad place as a part of her character is being lazy, and while the sterotype would suck, i think having another character like dorothea being fat would make it sting less, as i think itd be good for hilda's origins and design. it just.. suites her. plus marianne deserves a nice pillow

and mercedes. it just fits. i dont think anyone could disagree mercedes shouldve been fat.

anyways we'll probably never see body type diversity done well in fire emblem which is really such a shame (even engage does incredibly poorly at this. the only slightly out of fire emblem's ordinary body shape is that saphir is rather muscular, but if you make her a sage she awkwardly gets the same body type as every other girl in the game and it looks really broken and poorly designed) but its nice to headcanon. maybe mods can save us one day.
