Say what you want about Kojima and anime character design, but only in a Japanese game would you get a male protag like Raiden, dressed in a catsuit (hexbear.net)

I should clarify that I don't think it's because it's because Japan is amazingly progressive about gender. (After all, this is the game where he gets groped by :biden-troll: who exclaims "You're... a man?!)

It's just that Japanese character designers can go "I think the dudes can and should be pretty too"

wasn't this part of the bait and switch of MGS2? Players expected to play as macho Solid Snake but ended up playing as a pretty boy in a really tight suit.
