Sorry to seem like a grump, btw! I definitely initially assumed Sasha would be a female villagers (I was hoping for uchi, cause Mira is not my favorite design).
ultimately it really doesn’t matter! But it is interesting to see how people think of this stuff

I can't see them as anything other than a Kpop idol now.

that’s interesting! It is not impossible it could be becoming a girl’s name then. I might just be old

a lot of names have become unisex in recent years, although it does mostly seem to be masculine names being given to girls instead of vice versa, but i like it personally.
i just think the english translation should've given them a more 'masculine' name or more recognizable unisex one. (e.g. chris, alex, spencer, morgan, charlie.) if sasha was their name in a russian translation of the game then fair enough because it seems widely masculine there, but not so much in the west. for me, the only time i've heard of it being used for a male is in the case of a fictional character on a british soap, and it was spelled sacha instead.

I think it’s a female, they might be non binary, that would be cool if they did that. But It’s probably a female.

Ariel is a boy's name in Latin American countries, but in Spain it's pretty much unheard of as a name. I'm just pointing this out because I believe the Spanish localization is made by Spanish translators and uses European Spanish pretty much exclusively, and so it's a little weird that they'd choose it for a boy's name because we mostly associate the name with the Little Mermaid (or a brand of detergent, lol). I think the average Spanish person would see it as a girl's name, so it's a bit of an odd choice to make for a Spanish localization team that is based on Spain.
That being said, I do think it's very likely that Sasha is a boy. I saw somewhere that the promotional picture for the new cards follows a Boy - Girl - Boy - Girl pattern, and that the returning villagers are arranged following the order Lazy - Normal - Jock - Peppy - Cranky - Snooty - Smug - Sisterly. If the new villagers are following this same order, then indeed Sasha is a boy, and a lazy one at that. It would also mean that Petri is a Snooty villager, which is interesting; that would've been my last guess for her lol

I am so confused. All I know for sure is that when the update comes out I am gonna need Sasha, start stacking up nook miles tickets.

I can see them as both, really. I think it's easy to assume they're female because of their feminine features and name, but they could still be male...
Also "Sasha" can be a nickname for Aleksandr (Russian spelling), which is typically a male name.

Sasha could easily be female or male, I just think they are female, like I said before a non binary character would be cool. But I don’t really care if it’s female or male I still WNAT them on my island, I wish they could just realease the update now.
This was mentioned earlier and makes sense to me - the older/returning villagers in this image alternate male/female. So if the new villagers were alternating also, it would be:
Sasha - male
Ione - female
Tiansheng - male
Shino - female
Marlo - male
Petri - female
Cephalobot - male
Quinn - female
The other image also follows a male/female alternating pattern on villagers:
Sasha - male
Ione - female
Tiansheng - male
Shino - female
Marlo - male
Petri - female
Cephalobot - male
Quinn - female

They are following a boy girl pattern, and it seems unlikely that it would go femal-male-female-male-female-female-male. (Unless everyone is totally wrong, also my female male thing isn’t accurate to the cards)
Also I don’t exactly think that wardell is a female, but I don’t know they could be.
Oh wait it says that wardells a male. If this is true and the male-female patterns are tree Sasha is a female.
But a ton of characters would be male that don’t exactly look male, this is confusing, but I think we cross of male -female patterns because wardell is male and that means some villagers that look female are male, or Sasha is just a male.
But niko is also male

Yeah scratch off male female patterns.
Niko and wardell are both males so I don’t think that that the patterns are correst

the pattern is for the villagers i think, not the npcs
I don't think the pattern applies to NPCs - only villagers. The pattern is accurate if we look at the returning villagers on both images.

the pattern refers to villagers, specifically those in this series 5 set of amiibos. Niko and Wardell are non-villager NPCs.
This caught me by surprise when I first read it but after considering all the evidence, I now agree.
Those are NPCs so don't count.
Also their card numbers are 421 and 422
So they come before all the villagers
If you look at the card numbers you'll see that it goes sherb, Megan, dom, audie, cyd, Judy, Raymond, reneigh, AND THEN Sasha.
so the order holds up
