Welcome back to Waifu Wednesday, Niche Gamer’s column where we talk about characters, their appeal, and a little on their history.

This week’s waifu is Gemma from Monster Hunter Wilds!

Gemma is the Hunter’s new blacksmith who helps support them on their journey to the Forbidden Lands. Shortly after she was revealed, she quickly became popular among fans for her midriff-baring outfit and cute appearance.

Gemma is more than just looks though, she came to the Forbidden Lands to become the greatest blacksmith she can be while helping out the Hunter.

The biggest appeal to Gemma is possibly the gap moe between her style and attitude. She’s a badass tomboy blacksmith but still keeps her long blonde hair and keeps her revealing outfit even while striking red hot iron.
