First impressions are important. Yoko had an eight episode head start. By then, a whole horde of fanboys were behind her. I guess I'm one of the few who weren't impressed.
Well I suppose she's hot and all, but something about her just doesn't attract me. Oh well, it's just a case of sour grapes for me, I suppose. I'll just go back to admiring my Nia figure, the only significant Nia merchandise out of a bunch of Yoko stuff. |

I can't wait to get my copy, now.
I can't imagine that's all the art there is to it, so I'm just gonna be patient for now. Quote:
Asuka and Yoko are the sex appeal. Redheads will always be the targets of male horemones. Gunbuster, anyone? Rei and Nia are the moe factor. (Rei less so, but she doesn't flaunt.) At least until Nia dons her catsuit. Then she's just hot. |

In other words, she's the mascot. Okay, that sounds a bit derogatory, but really, she is. She gets a lot of attention for being hot and thus she ends up being the main draw for male viewers.

I wouldn't be feeling too bad about the lack of Nia merchandise. Yeah, Yoko has more stuff than her, but try being a fan of a character besides Yoko, Nia, Simon, or Kamina. I can't really see any characters besides those 4 getting an artbook.
Yoko really is the mascot in a way. Seeing a piece of Yoko fanart is what got me to look into the series actually. |

And when the news came out that Simon and Nia "did what they had to do" in the seven-year timeskip, everyone was celebrating that Nia wasn't a virgin. |

Well forgive me, but I've never seen Nia as more than a very two dimensional character. Pretty much all she does (aside from angst a bit about her father's abandonment of her) is (at least at the beginning) have a very unfounded belief in Simon.
That's basically what she is for almost the entirety of the show, a cheerleader. |
