Same also goes for Jokatsu in Inuyusha. I thought he was a female until it was revelaed he was a cross-dressing homosexual.
Ok, now that cleared things up for me, I thought it was a girl and every one calling her "he" was an mistake. I swear the feminine voice must have thrown off half the people around the globe.

I only played the came Guilty gear: midnight Carnival(not sure which number), and couldnt get over how manly "her" face was.
Has any one here ever played Gungrave for PS2? I personally didnt like it. here is my review on it, but first I should mention that its a third person shooter.
First off, I thought the game was completely lacking in longevity. I was able to beat it in under an hour, and there are only 6 levels. The controls were a little sub-par for my tastes. Grave's mobility sucks. He jogs as opposed to runs when you hold the run button, and he turns left and right ultra slow. there are only 3 attacks in the game. 1. Shoot, 2. swing coffin, 3) demolition shot. the demolition shot is like a special attack. The better you do during the game, the more of them you unlock, but there are only 3 to unlock. I personally dont mind the controls(except for the mobility issues), but it really feels like it's lacking something.

while the game follows the anime, it doesnt follow it that closely. I thought that was cool because I dont want to play the axact same thing that I watch every night. I did however have a problem with the final stage. In the anime, Harry mcDowell kills Big Daddy after taking over Millenion, his Mafia based organization. In the game big daddy is the second to last boss, who was keept alive, and mutated into what looks like a smaller version of the final boss of Final Fantasy 9. And while we're on the topic of bosses, I should add that the bosses in the game have nothing on the superiors in the anime, I would have much rather fought them.

I thoght the graphics were a nice release from the 100 hour Disgaea: Hour of Darkness binge I was on.
All in all though, I felt the game was worth a 2/5 rating. It's fun at first, but it gets old quick. I recommend renting it and nothing more to those who havent played it yet.
