![]() This interaction has led to some fans of the series expressing frustration and heartbreak over Bayonetta's choice to be with a man after earning a reputation as hypersexual, independent, and flirtatious-particularly towards women. Luka colliding into a wall during the game's final battle. My clumsy, lovely fool who'll forever be in my heart," before ultimately perishing alongside him. We'll always be together, Cereza." Bayonetta then sweetly smiles at Luka, and says, "No, Luka. As their bodies are slowly coated in hellfire, Luka tells Bayonetta, "Fate brought us together and it will never tear us apart. Ultimately, Bayonetta and Luka die saving the life of their daughter. In the game's final two chapters, this family and their love for each other comes to the forefront as the world begins to collapse around them. You see, in Bayonetta 3, we come to discover that a Bayonetta in some universe fell in love with Luka, resulting in the series' newest character, Viola. In Bayonetta 3, this conversation resurfaced with fervor as Polygon's Bayonetta 3 review, which expressed discontent at her journey down a heteronomative path, began to circulate. As such, there has always been an interesting tension and conversation surrounding Bayonetta and which community has, for lack of a better phrase, more claim to her-which is absolutely a statement that would cause her to both roll her eyes and unleash some demonic monstrosity upon us. For those who are a part of these communities, it's not hard to see why: much of the game's campy and theatrical nature comes across as a sort of performance piece on sexuality, creating a parallel between the series and the bravado of musicals or drag shows. However, as noted by Polygon, it didn't take long for the lovable dominatrix to be claimed by LGBTQ+ circles who began to herald her as a queer icon and a woman in complete control over her sexuality. Upon release, the Bayonetta series was met with criticism from feminist media critics such as Anita Sarkeesian (as seen in this video preserved by NastyOpinions) for creating a female protagonist who appealed to the male gaze. And when seeking out the truth of who Bayonetta exists for-a hotly debated topic in games media-I'd argue the very same can be said. Additionally, the tweet highlights four elements Cheshire can become imbued with, which gives him many possibilities going forward.By clicking 'enter', you agree to GameSpot's ![]() Another tweet highlighted how Cheshire could take on “elemental cores” to take on puzzles and enemies alike. That implies we could see Morgana at the beginning of the game or meet her very early on once Cereza enters the forest.Īs shown in the last trailer for Bayonetta Origins, you must control Cereza and Cheshire to fight enemies and solve puzzles. That’s what Cheshire is for.Īnother key thing in the tweet is the line about Morgana inviting the “practically orphaned” Cereza to live with her. That would also explain how Cereza can use some abilities in the game, but she won’t be able to attack foes herself. Yet here, at least one Witch was fine with her and willing to train her in the arts. The “fusion” of those traits made Cereza a kind of “taboo,” and thus, she was seen as an outcast by many and even locked up when she grew older. For those that don’t recall, the first game highlighted how Cereza was born from the “forbidden romance” of a Lumen Sage and an Umbra Witch. First, it’s never been stated how Bayonetta learned her Umbra Witch abilities. There are multiple reasons why this revelation is so important.
