#Like ok let’s look at Fire Emblem; Does Mercie have no personality? Does Marianne? How about Sakura? Elice? Neimi?

Oh my fucking gosh, it’s starting.

I’m honestly indifferent to Peach herself in the Mario movie; I’m mainly gonna be there to see Mario, Luigi, and Bowser. But the same exact shit that happened to Amy Rose, where people think she isn’t a strong character or doesn’t have a personality because she’s feminine and cutesy, is happening to Peach. The millionth “This character now acts like a girlboss, she’s automatically improved!” ice cold takes we’re seeing.

Do people just ignore that Peach is a kind and mild leader, who enjoys sports on the side and even participates in fighting on the side? OG Peach would see you sitting alone at a table, ask to sit next to you, and offer you tea and delicious cake. And yet she’s canonically taken action and saved Mario and Luigi on her own.

Not to mention her hospitable personality has de-escalated situations:

I can respect people who like this incarnation of Peach but holy shit, stop pretending like she didn’t already have a personality.
