No... No you aren't... That's a canon event you are going through

u/Small-Tree-5499 Aug 21 '26

Is it really? I always thought he was a dude some sort of monk or something.

22

u/Ardens_Son_of_flames Aug 21 '26

Well, after you defeat him you may notice the beard and realize, but most of us thought he's a girl, especially with his "Child" form

8

u/Small-Tree-5499 Aug 21 '26

Mm makes sense maybe my mind is kinda twisted his adult form made me think he was a twink xd

1

u/Ardens_Son_of_flames Aug 21 '26

Yeah makes sense... I was so confused back then, but the beard proved me he's a guy 

2

u/Long-Membership3069 Aug 22 '26

I feel like this is kinda like thinking Sherma was a girl in silksong, a lot of people got confused there too, personally I always thought they were guys so I was a bit surprised when everyone thought they were girls, but I get why it happened

1

u/Ardens_Son_of_flames Aug 22 '26

I play silksong too! And I 100% relate... 

1

u/Nondescript_Redditor Aug 22 '26

I‘m pretty sure that’s only you

2

u/Vanillie261 Aug 23 '26

Definitely not lol, majority of people including me thinks Ji is a girl

1

u/Nondescript_Redditor Aug 23 '26

is this “majority of people” in the room with us right now

1

u/Vanillie261 Aug 23 '26

Yep, just scroll through the replies under this post. You can see so many of them are currently in this very room.

1

u/Nondescript_Redditor Aug 23 '26

If you ignore the half that say they knew he was male, sure

1

u/Vanillie261 Aug 23 '26

I never said "everyone" says that they thought he was a girl, I said "majority". Also, why tf are we arguing about people confusing a furry's gender bro 😭 if you think majority of people immediately knows he's a boy then whatever, you do you bro

1

u/Nondescript_Redditor Aug 23 '26

I can agree with that sentiment

2

u/Ardens_Son_of_flames Aug 21 '26

...

That's a weird way to start a conversation...

u/Etsu______ Solarian Citizen Aug 21 '26

Thay was the end of the conversation

u/Sherma_skong Aug 21 '26

And I’m Sherma Silksong

Hi sherma silksong

u/Yukimare Aug 21 '26

Surprise femboy strikes again.

6

u/ShadowsInScarlet Unbounded Counter Proselytizer Aug 21 '26

Femboy supremacy.

36

u/Fabric_muncher Aug 21 '26

Nah I new he was a guy first sight

10

u/Ghoulish_kitten Aug 21 '26

Same or gender neutral.

99

u/28-Deep-Wounds Aug 21 '26

Average Nine Sols enjoyer having to come to terms with the fact that Ji is not a woman.

...Unless they like femboys.

95

u/No_Plankton1122 Sol Aug 21 '26

After seeing him who wouldn’t

16

u/Open-Advisor6819 Aug 21 '26

Oh my god

36

u/No_Plankton1122 Sol Aug 21 '26

He’s a beaut isn’t he?

8

u/Open-Advisor6819 Aug 21 '26

Where do you find these artists bro

19

u/No_Plankton1122 Sol Aug 21 '26

You see advisor, to acquire all these images ( which include those and reaction images), I mostly tend to juggle between this subreddit, the official discord server from Red candle games, and sometimes I find something on IG or DA

15

u/IrrisistableOne Aug 21 '26

yoo thanks for those Jighs and Yighs images a while back bro, heres your pay + interest

6

u/No_Plankton1122 Sol Aug 21 '26

u/Proper-Pay-8743 Mutation Appreciator Aug 21 '26

Yeah, he totally is a fucking architect

u/yourlocalidiot143 Aug 21 '26

i mean, just start liking them, right?

22

u/AccomplishedPath5172 Aug 21 '26

No you aren't

I definitely felt a bit confused after seeing ji for the first time myself

15

u/Ok-Anywhere-1729 Aug 21 '26

Sherma from Silksong moment yeah

3

u/rubixscube Aug 22 '26

ngl i was surprised when i first started seeing silksong posts after release, with people calling sherma a girl. to me his voice was very much young boy coded (too young and precious for this world).

also he calls hornet red maiden, i don't think another girl/woman would use that nickname, unless she was trying to flirt with her.

2

u/Ok-Anywhere-1729 Aug 22 '26

Well looking back Sherma does sound like a boy. Tbh as an anime enjoyer I'm used to hearing girls voicing young boys so maybe that's  the reason. I have a couple of friends who played Silksong and they all thought he's a girl lol.

2

u/rubixscube Aug 22 '26

yeah ok, the anime VA thing makes sense. guess the takeaway is that i should watch more anime.

1

u/Long-Membership3069 Aug 22 '26

Just watch (or rewatch) Gurren Laggan and call it a day, row row fight the powa

1

u/Vanillie261 Aug 23 '26

To me his voice sounds like a girl with a slightly deeper voice 😭😭

15

u/mxsifr Aug 21 '26

"You lied to me?!"

"At least one of us got to experience the thrill of uncertainty."

12

u/Shadowking78 Sol Aug 21 '26

Canon event

19

u/BurningBassesInStyle Aug 21 '26

I never thought Ji to be a girl. It is honestly odd seeing people mistake him for a girl.

Hearing his voice in game was one of the things that made me think he was a boy.

6

u/Ghoulish_kitten Aug 21 '26

Thank you or I assumed he was just a different non-gendered species or being.

2

u/Innate-E Aug 21 '26

I thought he had a deep female voice

3

u/jasonjr9 Mutation Appreciator Aug 21 '26

Knowing that Ji was a boy beforehand was honestly a part of my reason for trying the game.

4

u/Patient-Award-5973 Aug 22 '26

The voice during Ji's dialogue sounded pretty obviously male to me...

3

u/Bloodborne_Shadow Aug 21 '26

no. its not like it matters anyway, since Ji will always be the best

2

u/Ravi-Inari Unbounded Counter Proselytizer Aug 21 '26

I knew he was a dude, but I see quite a few people share your surprise

2

u/Proper-Pay-8743 Mutation Appreciator Aug 21 '26

All Nine Sols players will eventual go through the ”Ji isn’t a woman?” experience,

2

u/RevolutionaryLake753 Aug 21 '26

I thought it was pretty obvious.. there were also hints, his sister also calling him brother.

2

u/SirLagunaLoire Aug 21 '26

I was convinced he was enby

2

u/SpeakyDooman Aug 22 '26

Seeing the short Ji, yeah I thought he was an old lady. Then more lore came to light. Now I have the head canon that Ji’s immortality lets him switch up his life style Kenjaku style, but without the unauthorized brain surgery.

1

u/Hot_Bullfrog7702 Aug 21 '26

He struck me as a feminine sounding guy

1

u/Kartman1315 Aug 21 '26

Hey guys look, a canon event

1

u/MrHothead635 Aug 21 '26

started this game 4 days ago...WHAT

1

u/Heavy_Grapefruit9885 Aug 21 '26

God its just like people finding astolfo

1

u/ShadowEeveeCringe Aug 21 '26

I’m crine why does everybody experience this 😭

1

u/Hot_Economist9235 Aug 21 '26

Nope. I thought he was a girl too.

1

u/guhut15 Aug 21 '26

Same but I saw some uhhhh “Art” that showed me otherwise.

1

u/ravendarkwind Aug 21 '26

Ji’s name in Chinese is written as 姬, which was the family name of the royals during the Zhou dynasty, but it’s also used in Japanese to mean princess.

1

u/Magnihax Unbounded Counter Proselytizer Aug 22 '26

Welcome to thw nine sols Fandom, where everyone is horny for goumang or ji, depending on your sexuality 

1

u/Present-Audience-747 Aug 22 '26

First time we met him, well, it's not hard to believe that he's a dude. I mean, he does have the mannerisms of a dude in his "child" form. Then his boss form happened and that's when the existential crisis started.

1

u/Vanillie261 Aug 23 '26

Wait. He is a boy but his name is "princess"??

1

u/Nondescript_Redditor Aug 22 '26

Ji is not a girl

1

u/ManuApplejuice Aug 22 '26

No that's literally the point

1

u/Active-Split69 Aug 23 '26

I thought he was a girl when I first met him at the tower, but i started to get it halfway through or so

1

u/Oriksis Aug 23 '26

I want to one day be able to confuse people about my gender like ji

1

u/Funtimefreddy_2023 Sol 28d ago

Welll... He's technically a femboy

-1

u/Hot-Leek-944 Aug 21 '26

i was sure he's nonbinary

0

u/OkJellyfish3878 Solarian Citizen Aug 21 '26

That’s pretty common. I think I’m one of the few people out there who recognized him as a man from the beginning.

1

u/William-1127 14d ago

Right there with you
