The issue with the make Kirby angry thing is that it was the notion American audiences, including children, needed everything to be edgy and violent to sell. As far as I'm aware, this is just an internal change where they felt the design would be better this way, like movie Sonic. I can see Peach having the same expressions even in different situations being more awkward and bland.

The problem with Sonic was that they modeled it after a real hedgehog. They were able to fix it because he was the only character.

Disney's Lion King had the same problem the previous year and they learned nothing.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]


Several Kirby games also had Kirby being angry on the original boxart too, most notably Triple Deluxe (which is when Kirby started unifying the boxart, albeit Triple Deluxe did still remove the shooting cannon for NA, ironically).

Not related to the boxart here but the inverse "you're a pussy and not a real man/woman if you're not being an active badass" is also not good.

it does sort of contrast with the rest of the art, but i do like it more than the no-neck babyface type shit they always give her. and at least the second face is actually angled properly to match her body's pose...

oh, i just noticed her face and expression on the kung fu costume are also totally different. it's a lot more expressive and intense than the typical ':D' personality-devoid dollface she has in the first version.

I think the first one is better. Aside from the fact that the first one is the design Peach has had for decades, it also shows the whole contrast between Peach's position as a sweet, unassuming Princess and being capable of doing a whole bunch of crazy shit, all while keeping the harmless innocent look. I thought that was always a part of the joke/Peach's character gimmick.

The sweet, harmless princess who couldn't hurt a fly who can become a swordswoman or martial artist at the drop of a hat without changing her sweet, harmless, princess expression at all.

Peach hasn't been harmless or incapable for a looooong time, she makes it out to be that way

Wasn't there also a North American boxart for a Final Fantasy that changed the female protagonist/main character that was on the Japanese version into something else? I think I remember hearing something about that.

Both versions launched in Japan, brother for PS3 and father for Xbox. US only got father Nier for both systems and the remake only had brother Nier.
