Mara is only referred to as Female in Strange Journey from the ATLUS USA translation. So they fucked up

Mara is a HE and a KING

Yeah, the localisation team probably had a mixup in the underlying mythology or simply assumed female, as Mara is in the english speaking world sometimes a female name. Atlus obviously referenced the demon from buddhist mythology:

The localisation team might have confused that with the goddess from hinduism:

All the in-game texts clearly reference the mythology associated with the buddhist demon.
