The fairy in the image has dark brown and blue skin,long hair and it's nude with a tribal hat.The real Ly has normal skin,short hair,and it's dressed up with a yellow and purple suit and doean't have any hat.That's just not Ly!
Wow... that's... superficial.
Alright, I'll answer this in steps.
1: Hair colour. You're right, lots of people could have purple hair, but until now, only one has had it in the Rayman series, and we're not throwing our hopes away.
2: Skin. Dark brown? No. Simply quite tanned? Yes. Skin colour can change quite drastically according to whether you're in the sun or not, and since Rayman's world has TWO suns, that might actually change things even more drastically. Since adult Ly spends all her time in forests, sheltered from sun, she has less of a tan. Also, if young Ly appears to be a tribal figure, then it would mean she'd be in the sun a lot. And the blue stuff isn't necesarily tattoos - for one there's something called Henna and another option could simply be facial paint.
3: Hair length. Hair can grow and be cut shorter over time; I'm sure you must know this.
4: Nudeness and tribal hatness. Well, that would be explained by the occupation young Ly would have. If she is a tribal girl, then yes, (partial) nudeness and a tribal hat would be a clear indication that she IS part of a tribe.
5: Alright, I find you describe the difference between 'tanned' and 'light' skin as 'dark brown' and '
normal' quite racist, although I'm sure you didn't mean it that way. Please edit your post to avoid conflicts.
6: Suit. Like hair, outfit can change. Or are you one of those people who have fifteen sets of the same clothes lying around in the cupboard?
Yes - I am bringing down your arguments, but only because I found them highly superficial and ungrounded. Granted, we can't know at all if she's Ly or not, or if she has been put in there exactly with the purpose of getting people to try to figure out if she'll be in the game or not, but I have my beliefs and hopes and will stick to them.
Oh, and the... erm... rumpal inflation... can be explained by the game's overall redesign of a lot of characters. For one, the limblessness has disappeared on nearly everyone but Rayman, and I believe Globox's feet are still floating, but I haven't looked at that in detail yet. All enemies have had a redesign as well. And the most notable, I think, is Polokus, who is now no longer a frog and has insanely long arms, but a hairy slug who smokes a pipe and has his hair in some kind of stuck up ponytail. Alright, maybe he aged from the course of RO till Rayman 2 and lost all his hair, but that would still leave the slugness and the arms.
EDIT:
OK it seems I'm wrong about Polokus. I was just so stumped by his hair that I remembered him having it all over his body. He's still a frog, but he has facial hair in style of a hippie! Awesome! Hippie Polokus dreaming up stuff smokin' his pipe... hmm... I wonder what kind of things will spawn from THOSE dreams. O.o
Altough I'm not surprised by that.
