So, in my last blog I told you about Leo Kliesen, a new character in the Tekken series, who joined the others in Tekken 6. The kid's a little androgynous, and nobody really knew if it were a boy or a girl.

So, in my last blog, most people reacted the same way I did. I figured Leo had to be a boy. Leo is pretty much a boy's name. However, it's kinda pronounced like Princes Leia's name, Leio, if you will. Plus, the character wasn't very chesty, and as everybody knows, women tend to have breasts. It's this thing they do. And they also tend to have huge ones in games. And well, I generally thought the character looked like a boy.
But! I was shocked to find out, that Leo Kliesen, is in fact, a girl! So in fact, only War_Fox got it right, when he said he thought it was a girl, disguised as a guy. As Mulan-ish as this sounds, it is the most accepted theory at the moment, since Tekken fans all around are wondering why the hell a girl carries the name Leo. Theymostly think it's an alias, to be able to hide something while participating in the tournament. What that secret is however, only time will tell. It might be mentioned that Leo's backname is never actually given as Kliesen, which reinforces the alias theory. The only reason we have to believe thather backname is Kliesen is the fact that she is shown at Emma Kliesen's grave, and storywise it would make sense if that were her mother's grave. But still, her backname may be Kliesen, but we still don't know heractual name, unless it is Leo of course.
Katamari did point out something interesting though. The character's bio says it is a guy. Well, there's a simple explanation for that. Mistranslations. The Japanese bio doesn't go into detail about the character's gender. And, after watching at some concept art for the character, I had come to the conclusion that while they are a bit hidden, there are indeed bulbs on her chest.
So Kat, you're able to play as this character too, since you usually pick girls. To me, it'll always stay a bit of a guy though.

Leo (I think it's short for Leonie) is the most discussed Tekken character evar! When she was revealed.. well.. let's just say I have never seen so many Tekken topics about a certain persons gender

Ah, I was wrong. I still haven't gotten Tekken 6 yet, so I really had no information about her anways.

Wasn't it revealed she was a girl? That's what I thought.
