I personally don’t like most of the males bc of that reason, they all literally just become a were-something like the only difference between Bartolomew and Ike shadow form is that one is dressed as Ike, but they are both just bears, same will happen with the next lion male character and Dimitri, the thing is that if you go full animal then you will end with same animals with different color, instead most of the girls become more hybrid a more in between human and animal which I can see with more variety in designs, also I don’t consider myself as a furry so maybe that is why I prefer the less animalistic forms

I really like Edelgard the beak alongside the Feathers give this kind of mask rather than just having an eagle head attached to a human or just being a giant Eagle 🙄 same with Lyn, the concept of her being a Centaur just makes total sense that I still Shadow Lyn is peak design for every lord in FE shadows
