What do you think of Link's new TP character model?

I think androgyny is a Japanese thing, the most girly looking guys in gaming usually come from JRPG's like final fantasy, Tale's, Dragon quest etc. I also think the average Japanese male looks more feminine than we do, for example just take a look at smash bro's creator masahiro sakurai, gymnast kohei uchimura and actor yamada yuki below. Androgyny is part of japanese culture and Nintendo are japanese so i don't think links appearance will ever change. I mean has anyone ever seen a butch japanese male protagonist in any game? (Snake doesn't count because he isn't ethnically japanese).

While I don't disagree with you as a whole, but there are several masculine JP video game characters. They are typically fitting a gangster or thug stereotype though.

I have never played yakuza so i only see pretty boys when i play Japanese games. I don't mind, it makes a change from playing as some musclebound brute.
