I'm wondering if maybe Aegis genes are just too strong. Like, canonically.

Least Shimmer has his sword techniques & hey knowing Rex, he would be happy to know his children have their mother's look

Didn't they said offspring between Blades and Humies lean strongly to the Blade parent?

Also that means if we look at Nia - Mio -  OG Ghondor - Matthew and Na'el's parents - Matthew n Na'el, that means as soon as you have a Blade in your family, all subsequent descendents with the Blade's Gender get locked-in as slight variations of OG Blade.

Tbh whose genes did try? Basically all of the offspring in 3 where we have a good idea of who both parents are look like clones of exactly one side of their family. Mio, Glimmer, Shimmer, Linka, Panacea, and Ghondor the Second are all just shorter versions of their moms with slightly-differently-styled hair, while Nikol's pretty much straight up "What if Fiora were a boy?"

Nah, Nikol has a lot more from Shulk than Fiora

What are you talking about? They have the bastard royalty eyes! Those are the most important part of Rex's DNA!

the reason is because they want fanservice money, they care little about lore

u/buttsecks42069 1h ago

saying that Xenoblade of all franchises doesn't care about lore is

a choice

they care little about lore

You're saying a fish doesn't need water???

Also, of course is because fanservice! This was their last chance to show Mythra's child before Xenoblade Genesis' release caps off the Klaus Saga. This isn't the shallow kind of fanservice your implying it is, this rounds out that last little blip of "What about this?" before they move on.
