  • She had breasts. How could know one see that.

  • Can anyone please translate what Harada said? I understand very little Japanese.

  • @kirishima69

    Murray acts as a translator. Thoguh my reply probably came too late, as you're already banned...

  • What?!

  • My whole life is a lie.

  • Enough!!! Tell me, how many times it is necessary to argue that one side has won? It will never end. For you, may Leo be a male, but for me, she is a female, and i hope what she will be a girl. Argue many times as you want, but this will help nothing. It's already clear, tell me, why at Leo's official project name is *leo**** Kliesen??? Why her voiced Veronica Taylor? Why she have Female hairstyle?? why she in win pose doing in T6 saying with "Lucky me"? And in TT2 she have generic female items?

  • @SylarGKIW as well in tekken 6 but she (i think she is a woman as well) uses a hammer and some other male items but i mean namco is stupid they tought this character would be awesome to the gamers and is just a crappy milking character (thats my opinion) still leo is a girl FTW

  • To all the people saying Leo should be a boy, CAMON, there are plenty of feminine characters that happen to be guys, like Elliot in Dead or Alive, Haku in Naruto, Xion in King of Fighters (though it was to be a girl originally, like you can tell by her breasts and hips in the concpet art. The developers themselves said they turned her into a man becasue that way the character would be creepy, and they succeded for me), Bridget from Guilty Gear, CAMON, this time is the reverse situation, for ONCE

  • Thank GOD, my assumption is right. Leo is actually a girl!! Because I get a lot of response from my classmates from the college saying that Leo is a boy. It's not! Thank you Harada-san for making Leo's gender as a girl!! Here's Leo's fullname: "Eleonor Kliesen".

  • LEO IS A GIRL!!?? All this time I thought it was a he =_=

  • Lame... Leo would be better as boy.

  • I always knew Leo was intended to be female. I have no idea why people would think she was a boy. I mean, we can all agree on that she's androgynous, but she looks way more like a masculine girl than a feminine boy. She isn't flamboyant, which is the single most prominent trait in androgynous males in Japanese animation.

  • when does he actually say it, im too lazy to watch the whole video

  • @RoGraves2012

    Dude, the first 2-3 minutes, right at the beginning...

  • Leo is a shemale

  • mind=blown.

  • Eh, I've got this feeling that Namco of the US is just going to declare that Leo is a boy over here because of the fact that the English version of Tekken 6 had already done so.

    You know what? What the fuck ever. I'm just going to shut the hell up and enjoy this series and playing as this character regardless. :P

  • reminds me of a teen pop star..

    yellow hair that looks like a boy

  • i think they tried to tell us that when the very first tag video was released when Jin and asuka went against kazuya and leo

  • why do they say Ley-oh and not Lee-oh?

  • @TheLMBLucas

    Because Leo is German...

  • @TheLMBLucas leo is masculine

  • @phantasmic1000

    Wouldn't matter, you say "Ley-oh" because it's the German pronounciation.

  • @dailyos well still,leo is the male variation

  • @phantasmic1000

    Then your comment still does not explain why she's called Ley-oh, instead of Lee-oh. Your comment confuses me, as I think you're missing the context. As I've said, it doesn't matter whether it's a boy's name or a girl's name, "Eleonore" or "Leonie" also have the Ley-oh pronounciation, despite being female names.

  • @dailyos leo is the latin word for lion,its pronounced Lee-o and its Masculine

  • @phantasmic100

    There is no true pronounciation for latin words... and Leo could also come from Greek and there it is definitely not pronounced Lee-o. And although Leo is in general male, it can be the short form of female names like Leonie or in this case here Eleonore. She's German, so you pronounce it Le-oh, period.

  • @Raron um,we were talking about the name,not the pronounciation

  • Trolling

  • I bet if Leo was a boy.... many girls would have a crush on "him" xDDDDD

  • Wow a tranny O_0 but they cant have a african american woman -__-

  • thats a real boyish looking girl...i mean REALLY boyish looking girl....

  • @XLRO8 Leo = Flat chested and a girl who has an appearance of a male :)

    XD

  • @XLRO8 she doesn't look boyish at all. she has short hair and her chest is small. that has nothing to do with her being a guy or a girl.

  • @MrInuhanyou123 dude...

  • first thougt Leo it's a Bishounen character..

    but then i realize she's lesbian butch

  • So it's just Eleonore and Eleonora?

  • @amysorel12: I know the quality of my video is a little bit bad, hence it's hard to figure out if it's Eleonor"e" or Eleonor"a". Since I was there, I would say Eleonore.

    Eleonore and Eleonora are both fitting the missing letters in Leo's official Wallpaper.

    @all: Read the video description, please.So you get to know more information about the name Eleonore and its different versions.

    Leo can still be a boy for you, cos she is a tomboy. Put your crude thoughts away and think positive!

  • Harada is trolling us.

  • Too bad...

    It would have been better if it was a feminine male, like Justin Timberlake, Brad Pitt or David Beckham.

  • of course leo's a girl it's so obvious. why would tekken even make a character that would seem gay? she has long eyelashes, can be customised with pigtails and doesn't even have muscles like the men from the character roster. tekken's not the type which creates characters that are suuuuper anime-faggy like the ones in dead or alive and soul calibur

  • @eclipse572 Alyssa is about as super anime faggy as it gets though (not gay but lame)

  • @Devilbat74 hm, good point... even lars. hell he was even in that naruto game

  • She is a girl with tomboy clothes, girl or not a girl, Leo is cool.

  • I was right She is a Boy :P

  • WAT THE HELL !

    I REALLY LOVE LEO AND NOW . .

    SHE'S A GIRL TT___TT

    SSSSYYYYYYEEEEETTT !! >:((

  • :D

  • wtf??? in the tekken 6 art book thing leo was under the MALE section! wtf????????

  • Oh it's fine with me that she's a girl alright... only that in T6, HER equipped her with a sledgehammer, having the same continue screen pose as Jack-6, same lose animations as the male characters (ex. ground smashing), and no barefoot doesn't make no goddamn sense at all. Oh wait, it's a game. I should've known. e_e

  • No way it's obvious, cause of her lips. I really hope for them to reveal that she's a Female! thanks god my wish is granted! I hope her name would be Leona. :D

  • @sweetbuble90210 it's rumored to be Eleonore...

  • I WAS RIGHT!! woo! she is a girl!!

  • Men... i thought she was a boy ! He would have been so cute and and...totally my type <3 but NOOOO is ia a boy -.- now i hate her because she is not a boy...men that is fucking me up !!

  • @TesiiiLovesGaara Move to Elliot from Dead or Alive. In the other hand ther isn't more tomboys like Leo

  • Chicks in masculine clothing is hot.

  • They probably should have never made Anna call her a "cute boy" in scenario campaign mode if they were going to make Leo a girl

  • @wrestlerboy500

    I feel like that was probably done on purpose just to mess with players' heads and to point out that other characters are also confused about Leo's gender.

  • she is a boy in my mind

  • yuck

    

  • Can anyone tell me wether Leo is male or female?

  • good thing they finally said something her gender. i thought it was retarded as hell to make a character gender ambiguous. I know that leo was a female anyway.

  • @dfaster809 Why is it retarded? -.- And you couldn't know because it hadn't been told anywhere. :P

  • @RRRadish It's retarded because there is no point in having an ambiguous gender character. You have people that are going to wonder what the gender is and everything. Even though to me it was obvious it was a chick trying to look a guy. She even sounds like a girl trying to make her voice deeper to sound.. I just dont think its any point of having an ambiguous character. especially one that is obviously looks like a female trying to be a boy in 1st place..

  • @dfaster809 Only thing girly about her looks is her face. :/ It wasn't "obvious", especially seeing how common feminine guys are in Japanese media.

    And I still don't get why it's retarded to you. Why shouldn't she be like that?

  • @RRRadish well in all sens leo is german, leo is a female name in germann .___.

  • I DONT FEEL GAY ANYMORE!

  • Leo's a dyke cunt, fuck women, fuck lesbians.

  • in my view different from most disapproving reactions, I think was right, because sooner or later they would reveal it, they can't keep a character being ambiguous or hiding it forever.

    and as for the "Leo's gender was originally meant to be ambiguous etc" actually maintain(which mean not for very long, and originally is for start), and love the character whether later would reveal if is a boy or girl and still love the character once revealed the real gender

  • @BlueWizardTraveller NiGHTS from the NiGHTS into Dreams series, and apparently Reala, are also both ambigious and it's stayed that way. Doing something like this was no excuse at all. I think he just ran out of time and wanted to make the fanboys happy.

  • @DaniruuHinotei just for fanboys? (I disagree with you) maybe the

    creators have different views regarding this in terms of revealing the real

    gender of a ambiguous character, besides they are still alive (did go to

    wikipedia) so those who made nights into dreams series, so if they want to or if they think

    they should, they can do it anytime as long they are alive, just as much

    did Harada-san, he thought it should be already time to reveal it

    specially being in the character's country, Germany.

  • I'm pissed. I really liked it better when you could decide for yourself whether Leo was a boy or girl. Revealing Leo's gender (or, in retrospect, giving Leo a gender) gets rid of Leo's original point, and, as it turns out, seriously disappoints many fans (including myself, but if you look at all the comments here, a good portion are disapproving). Plus, i liked Leo being a boy and I'm super pissed that it would be considered "incorrect" now.

  • Meh. Leo's gender was originally meant to be ambiguous so that fans would love the character regardless of the gender, as previously mentioned in the comments. Leo's one of my favs and the gender will always be ambiguous to me, as it has always been. I think it adds an intriguing mysteriousness to Leo. "Revealing" the gender wasn't that a good idea, methinks.

  • Jeez man. What do you think ambiguous gender means? Woman? Changing that is like changing Poison into a guy without removing her tits. It doesn't really work.

  • Oh woop. It's a girl... no more funny comics about Leo's gender.

    Also why does the translator say "So Leo was a girl" as if she's no longer? Duun duun duuunnn

    Fuck.. I wish they'd kept it a secret! xD

  • LEO IS ASH KETCHUM!!!! (She is voiced by Veronica Taylor) No wonder she's a girl

  • @kingoniranger Well, (Obviously not defending the gender anymore) but you can't say "no wonder". Leo's young (thus, if Leo was a boy "he'd" be a young boy) and Ash is a young boy. So THAT proves nothing. Pointing out that she played Cosmos in Dissidia would prove something, though.

  • @ravenbb615 I found that info on the wiki i'm just saying Veronica Taylor is Leo's voice actor nothing special

  • @ravenbb615 Not exactly. Leo's 19. Compare to Jin and Hwoarang, who were also 19 in T3. In many countries (possibly most?), that's adult. With this in mind, it was fairly obvious that Leo is female, but people had some weird idea that Leo was supposed to be 13 or something.

  • @DigiCount I'm not saying Leo's 13, but the voice was always just too low to be female. (I thought at least). Veronica Taylor voicing Leo, and using her voicing another BOY as proof just doesn't count.

  • Stupid. Wasn't he supposed to be a character that would be loved by fans regardless of gender?

    I reeaallyyy dislike this. I liked him better when I could think that he's guy. Now... naah.

  • Meh...I was expecting harada could have shed some light on Leo's Sexuality. She would really be an Icon if she was really a T-bird.

  • I hate transvesties (I think i spelled that right)

  • Well this is bullshit. Now they're gonna make a lot of rape doujin about Leo.

  • @Reno750 That already existed with versions of female Leo and male Leo. They are not the real Leo in any case, so...

  • they should make a Leo female costume..... not in customization...

  • LEO HAS BOOBS.

    It's obvious her costume- the red one with the jeans and boots.

  • yall realli mad over a dammn qame ?

  • Some people are so pathetic. Oh I won't chose a character if their sexual orientation is this or like omg I hate people who differ from me only in the preferences. Seriously just grow up and accept some facts that you cannot change.

  • @johan1326 *troll mode on*

    Well choosing your character is also a matter of preference. What if someone likes to play with straight characters?

  • @DKzgd T_T I don't want to sound mad it's just annoyance. Well.. if someone likes to play with straight characters they can use the other 99% of the roster and not trash talk for the other 1% or want to change it. I mean seriously it's none of their business.

  • @johan1326 I get what you mean, but you are forgetting these are fictional characters, not real people... the boundaries of privacy dont apply for them... for instance; someones love life may not be concern of yours, but if its fictional character's in a love book you are reading, you are free to bitch about it as much as you want...

    But dont get me wrong, this does not grants you right to say things like: "I hate fagots, so I wont be playing the character", cause thats insult to real ppl...

  • @DKzgd That's what I said!!! I hate people who say that. My first comment was full of irony about those who say those things.

  • @johan1326 ok ; )

  • @DKzgd She is a Tomboy, that doesn't mean she don´t like men, she can be lesbian or not

  • @Flipain wtf are you talking about... I commented here like year ago and I'm sure I didn't confuse tomboys for lesbians...

  • @DKzgd Maybe I have picked the wrong person, I thought you put in a commentary :"I hope Leo isn't a lesbian" and I taked it like you were thinking she would be lesbian for being a tomboy, sorry man.

  • @Flipain oh no biggie ^^

  • I hope Eleonore is not a lesbian.

  • heck yeah! the suspense was enough already xD

    Personally I'm happy cause she is a she.

    Oh, and for the ones that thought that Leo was male to go gay over her, don't get too sad. There's enough male characters from videogames for you guys. Let the lesbian fanboys get some of their share of the rainbow, please.

  • sure just make me go lesbian over a fictional character.

  • Leo is a sexy girl

  • i cant understand him because my english is bad ... so leo is girl or boy ???

  • @5dsGX5ds Girl.

  • @suikoden4 noooooo !!!! why is she a leasbian !!! but she havent boobs and her voice like a boy !!!! now i hate her !!! ill never chose her now !!!!

  • @5dsGX5ds It because she looks like a boy? & sound like a boy? You joking right? Her face is a female, her voice look's like an old lady. I will never chose her if she are a male. She have female hairstyle, it says what she a girl. If she will be a male with female hairstyles, I WILL NEVER CHOSE "HIM" It because if she a male with female hairstyles, it mean, "he" a gay & transvestite. I HATE GAYS AND TRANSVESTITES!!!

    I will chose her only because she a girl.

  • @SylarGKIW "I hate gays and transvestites"

    Very progressive thinking to go with that perfect grammar.

  • @Ilikepie9999999 basically summed up that "Paragraph" of text.

  • @SylarGKIW noo she looks like a boy (teen boy)

  • @5dsGX5ds For you, but not for me.

  • "Thats a secret." Yeah, thats likely with the power of the internet.

  • I KNEW IT AT FIRST TIME!>:D

  • Glad we have a tom boyish girl now , so we can balance out the cute schools girl and the sexy bad asses

  • I KNEW IT. :>

    Sorry, just had to say it XD

  • Yes! I knew I was right! Now I can fancy her without it feeling wierd.

  • I am happy that  finally Leo is considered female.

  • to me I dropped a myth, what's next? ¿Nina Williams taking off his face and showing that it is actually a horse? anyway, I still think he's a boy, I have my own conclusions from what is, and if a man think it will allow me to play with the amount I will not be the best for me, besides, Namco said sex of the character they chose the fans themselves that ... that shit XD, moreover, reminds me of final Fantasy XII Vaan

  • what about heihachi?

    he'd look lovely in a dress :-3

  • CALLED IT CALLED IT CALLED IT

  • I had the biggest crush on her when I thought it was a he, but I still do even though I wanna see how she looks with nothing on just out of curiosity lol

  • NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN­NNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­-

  • its so easy to see its a girl

  • 1:53 FOR HARADA SAYS EREONORE KURISEN!!!

  • Leo: The only character that when asked gender, would put "Not sure."

  • I think they made her gender neutral and then since the majority of people think she is a girl, they made her a girl.

    Honestly thought it was a guy though, I mean she could even participate in Heihachi's male only Headbutt Carnival special move.

    I'm sure though if the majority of people thought Leo was a guy, they would've said his name was Leon, or Leonidas or something lol

  • @MrsIvannaHumpalot well of course you think that, you thought she was a dude...

  • @pimpsnick Well obviously that is what I thought! Thats why I had said it lol

  • @MrsIvannaHumpalot No, the character was ambiguous from the begginning it never was a boy. She is a tomboy, act like a boy, that's whuy she do the headbutt carnival thing, and all the other male things. If you want a "pretty boy", you have plenty out there, try Elliot form Dead or Alive, for example

  • Leo didn't fell like finishing like Poison from Final Fight heyhey !

  • AHA!just like i thought!!!!SHE IS A GIRL!!!HAHAHAH!

  • i would still fuck her. only its less hotter now.

  • new it from day one.. old news. Oh boy OHH BOY!! i got so much shit talking to do to several people that thought Leo was a Boy!

  • So we know Leo's sex is female... what's Leo's gender?

  • Well Leo did a REALLY good at pretending to be a male. So I guess Tekken won't go KOF road and make characters like Ash Crimson, or they are just going to be girls in disguise.

  • Yay so Leo finally has a gender now namco could you mind giving her a personality?

  • @LEAFtea57 she has more personality than most other characters(if you don't count the emo or the insane if thats what you mean by "personality"...)

  • aahhhh at least :D~~..i hope at TTT2 Leo got some female clothes/dress for customize xD~~

  • Wtf it says in the tekken 6 art book that Leos a male

  • Wtf in my art book it says leis a male

  • 1 person wanted Leo to be male.

  • Meanwhile, Bridget is a guy, Poison is non-gendered, and putting a female face on a male model is a lazy way to start shit with a character with 5 text boxes of development.

    Still, at least wacking off to Leo won't feel as awkward.

  • NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOO

  • @emeraldtyphoon YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSS­SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS­SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS­SSS

  • @SylarGKIW DOUBLE NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

  • Leo is my favorite character besides Yoshimitsu.

  • What? Leo is girl? ahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!

  • love Eleonore. always said she was a female. show some love for the handsome girls out there.

  • And so, one of the greatest debates in gaming history is ended.

  • is her name Eleonora or Eleonore?

  • @amysorel12 Eleonore

  • HA! i always knew shes a girl! Way too cute to be a dude, ick... Shes kinda hot too xD

  • Comment removed

  • I must say thanks to German fans. Because of them, we are never do not learned that Leo is a girl. I'am happy to know what she's a girl :D

  • Feeling sorry 4 the other guys that thought she was male...

  • @MoonspiritTheCat I don't but I am a dick

  • @drunkendan I said that ironically...I don't even care myself too.

    Besides I knew it all along that she is a girl.(female haircut, female name-eleonore and female voice actress-Veronica Taylor is some proof,right??)

  • @MoonspiritTheCat The female voice actor part isn't good evidence cause...well many female's voice males. That being said the way she voiced her sounded like a girl who can't sound like a boy trying her best. I knew cause A: her hips while not huge where too big for males and B: her face was feminine and in tekken even pretty boys still look like boys and not girls on boys bodies.

  • @drunkendan heh, u've got a point

  • @MoonspiritTheCat why

    the reverse is what would be l0l0l0

  • leo's prologue tells that leo's a girl...

  • It was at the Bloodline Vengeance Premiere at Germany, Köln Cinenova.

    Why, because I was there. The movie was in Japanese with German subtitles.

    1:48 Fans in Germany.

  • who's the 3rd guy from the left at the start of the video

  • @hi123456789282

    That's Shin Kamiya. A Character introduced in Blood Vengeance. 

  • Thank goodness!

    No gender bending BS here!

    Another reason I love the game!!!

  • the most concerning thought about tekken games is that harada will adopt same policy with netherealm studios about dlc characters.....harada...DONT DO THAT!!DO NOT DO THAT MAN!!!

  • I'm not surprised that Leo is a girl. I already knew this since day 1. I'm just glad it's finally confirmed.

    Personally, I'm more glad that Leo is a girl and not a guy. To me, it's better that way.

  • @NightmareX7 Me too. After i saw her opening and winning pose, it became obvious

  • I just thought of two more! He dosen't react to anna's slap, and he DOSE react to Heihachi's headbutt! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU HARADA!?
