This is without a doubt one of the funniest things I've ever seen. The sheer magnitude of shit-eating corporate insincerity. The insistence on preserving the racist tiki bullshit in the same image. The implication that they are also somehow non-binary between cats and bats. The wholehearted endorsement of "skinny punk" as the de rigueur non-binary aesthetic. The assumption that anyone anywhere has thought for even a moment about the interiority of characters from the Crash Bandicoot series. "Meet Catbat, The Crash Bandicoot Series' First Non-Binary Character" is cellar door to me.

I dunno I like them.
Fwiw this character was supposedly non-binary by happenstance, the pitch was actually “David Bowie” lol and this is what came out.
Considering how David Bowie has been the defacto inspiration for so many androgynous characters that makes this more hilarious, I think?
I was holding on by a thread today and this has put me over the edge I’m going to nap
The catbat writers room has been working hard for years to advance representation and you just erase their contributions like this? Is the catbat community a joke to you? I hope you're prepared for thousands of cbkins to pin your name on their enemies board (which is empty because nobody else has heard of catbat)
as an Australian, Crash Bandicoot makes me overwhelmingly, unreasonably angry all the time so it's nice to see this is a franchise that can't get anything right
