I don't play Lisa, but I now know you'd love the Magifolk from Mother 3 please ignore their outdated canon name
lisa the painful was directly inspired by the mother series so i wouldnt be surprised if a lot of characters in lisa are direct references to mother characters :o] i do really love gender non-conformity and openly queer characters but it is important to note that a lot of characters like this, especially for older games like mother 3, are supposed to be transmisogynistic and intersexist stereotypes and their designs were supposed to be "funny" to the games' audiences, and these seem to be no different. while we can certainly try to reclaim these characters we do still have to accept why they were made and the bigotry that was present in the designers. i do like these designs, though! the outfits and colors are cute. makes me wish that they couldve been done by queer people with queer people in mind. also you werent lying, that name... oof
