Looks like they've learned at least one lesson from the Ubisoft debacle, removing a potential argument about being ahistorical. If anyone says "girl boss" -- which, I think, is a justified concern -- they can point to the sidekick girl from the first game, who was *very* girl bossy, just not the main character.
Here's the sticking point, though: is she gay, and if she's not, are there other prominent gay characters? In the first game they snuck in bisexual grandma; how "stunning and brave" will they try to be here?
She's just an alphabet girlboss.
Not buying if she is gay!

Perhaps Atsu will meet a black samurai to share drinks with and to talk about shiitake mushrooms.
