Ok, I'm more confused than ever. I have been reading on the internet that she is a bisexual and in other places, a girl, a boy who dresses like a girl and an asexual.

WHAT IS IT?

In Japan he's a boy.
In anyother place she's a girl.

Doesn't it say somewhere that 'she can infatuate anyone' or something?

In Japan, she's a he. However, some debate that she is a girl being called a man as an insult or something like that...

In America, she's a girl. I guess both can count. I like to think of her as a girl. Buh huh huh!

Vivian is only a girl in the US because people are so sensitive about transvestites. But even though Japan has yaoi, a lot people (even some of the readers of yaoi/yuri) are against homosexuality.

Japan's a lot more perverse.

I quote...sorta from a dubbed Japanese Tattle...

""That's Vivian. Of the shadow group, she's the youngest sister... er, brother"

And in English

"That's Vivian. She's the youngest of the three Shadow Sirens. She doesn't seem all that noteworthy. Uh... She is kinda cute I guess... She might even be cuter than I am... I guess... ...Uh... What am I thinking?”

Therefore, the entire Vivian character was changed.

However, it scares me about how much Vivian hits on Mario now. When I first played the game, it was all well, but now...if Mario did that...that would scare the crap out of all the little kids!

Extremely odd......
Why do the japanese make all of these tranvestite characters? X_X

Bridget, Jun-San, Vivian and I dread to think how many there are.

You just think about that stuff because you're in America, and stuff like that seems "wrong" to you. It isn't. It's a way of life that America isn't willing to accept. Welcome to America: A separate planet of Earth that wants everything to act like it.

Curse my strict country...

Why not? It goes where a Mario character hasn't. Japan can, and that leads to great plot development. How many Dubs have diminished in quality due to the removal of some elements, including homosexuality? Many. It's a part of life, and Japan has willingly accepted that.
