Unfortunately the localization, or possibly the source is apparently trying to make him "trans" now as he apparently refers to himself as a "girl" now in one of the ending dialogues.

Pressing the 'shift' key allows you to type capital letters and the symbols at the top of the keys. The 'shift' keys are on the left and right of the keyboard, with the arrow pointing upwards. For capital letters, hold down the 'shift' key and hold and type the letter.

seems like there's some debate on that. According to some people its she in japanese as well. Idk I think its just arc sys shooting theirselves in the foot.

Well they already did something similar to Testament, so it's clear that Arc Sys is drinking from that fountain sadly.

Always hated this character. Wake me when they reveal Johnny... which probably won't be until 2023.
The "funny" part is they released the survey results and Johnny made the top 3 for all regions except Japan. No region gave a shit about Bridget except Japan, so of course he gets in. =S

Basically Korea's top 5 was what I expected Japan's top 5 to be. Also cool to see Slayer at number 4 whereas he's number 7 in Japan and number 1 in NA/EU.

And if this change to Bridget is legit, that'd actually upset the Japanese fanbase the most.

Then again that could be Japanese devs thinking, "we gotta make Bridget more appealing outside Japan. Whats the latest trend?", "Trannies!/Non-Binaries!", "Ok! Let's go!"

The problem was that his story was always about "Strive"-ing to be a manly man to shed his girly exterior and this just shits all over that.

Bridget was cool in the XX line of games. He could throw out yo yos and pull them / transform them at various parts of a combo. This made it easy to create weird cross-ups.

for what it's worth, the new design is way toned down. The old Bridget had an even creepier "bedtime catholic boy-girl" thing going on:

Apparently now, there is an issue where that this new "proclamation" is made in the "bad" ending of the Arcade mode, and that in the "good" ending and story, Bridget chooses to remain true to himself.

What's funny and hilarious is that the trans crowd is literally celebrating a bad ending where literal grooming happens to Bridget as he conforms to what the other characters are putting on him.

Good, reflects reality and how this stuff is linked to mental illness and grooming
 
Bridget was literally groomed by his home village into believing he was a girl because they believe twins are a dangerous omen. Bridget rejects that and spends 90 percent of his time telling people he's a boy, and asking masculine characters to teach him to be more manly.

ArcSys really gonna pozz their characters like this now?

the comments under the article are interesting

The resolution of the male-daughter fans is very high, but the ones who like male daughters nowadays are fujoshi pretending to be male otaku. The people who draw 18 bans manga for men are fujoshi artists pretending to be male artists who just want to draw generic BL in the male genre (although sometimes male artists like "Misogyny Asanagi" draws a book of kanmono leve-kun male daughters), or they draw manga on NanJ or Futaba and say "I'm a guy but male daughters are very popular among otaku. I'm a guy, but male girls are very popular among otaku. (It is also known that some of the cis hetero male otaku are also involved in such activities.) It's obvious that while there are some cis hetero male otaku who like male daughters, most of them prefer the cute Umamusume and other girls that don't have dicks attached to them.
The male-daughter genre should be burned along with the mutually assured destruction of BL (it was actually regulated in China). Excessive male-daughter-age only benefits fujoshi, you lunatic.
Also, Hackadoll #3 is not included 😡.

I'll post a link to this year's erotic manga genre popularity trend data from FANZA.
The most popular genre among 18-34 year olds (as a popular search genre) was "male daughters.
The actual sales data shows that the top-ranked genres are almost exclusively heterosexual sex manga by male and female storytellers (if the number of searches for male daughters is high, the number of male daughters is low). (The reason why there are so many searches for male daughters is that fujoshi (rotten girls) are searching for them. (The reason why there are so many searches for male daughters is that fujoshi are searching for them.)

Conclusion: Male daughters are popular only among fujoshi (rotten girls) and some brainless female kimotas.

Mr. Koyama may love male daughters, but if you are not careful, you will be deceived by rotten girls 😎.

I'm more gobsmacked by the femininity shown by masculine women than by male daughters (what am I saying?).

But trans people are actually seen as a disability, and it's hard to say. It's more like they suffer from the fact that their mind and body don't match. I don't think she's as bright as Bridget...
If Bridget is trans, is Ryunosuke from Urusei Yatsura also trans? I'm a woman, though. By the way, I like masculine women like Ryunosuke, Benten, Sakura-san, etc.
(What am I saying? This is the second time.)

Well it was a good run i'll keep playing acpr. Honestly the biggest annoyance i have with this is the fans just jumping the gun on it. They were very quick to revise the material.

I had to look into this with some japanese sources to make sure there was no BSing going on there (the article gives no sources, great journalism there) but yeah... they really dropped the oiginal setting for the character.

I wonder how the Japanese fans are handling this. Last I checked they were the ones who wanted the character the most so I'm certain their mad about this

Indeed on news.nicovideo.jp there's a fare share of commenters that are unhappy with what they believe is the staff giving in to outside pressure.
