A newcomer to Overwatch’s expanding roster is receiving scrutiny for her derivative character design, and the voice actor behind the hero took to the web to express their support for a redesign.

Anran is one of five new heroes joining the game for Season 1, hailing from China and sporting a moveset centered around fire attacks. She appeared in a cinematic last year that introduced her brother, fellow Overwatch hero Wuyang. But fans of the game pointed out that not only does her final in-game design differ from her previous look, but her face looks very similar to that of other characters like Juno and Kiriko.

Fareeha, Anran’s English voice actor, spoke about the character’s design in a social media video post. Addressing the “elephant in the room,” Fareeha said they agree with criticisms while giving “grace” to the game’s developers.
