Not necessarily.
The fact that it looks just like a midlander leads me to believe it's NOT COMPLETE YET. Did we see an in-game model? Or did we only see the concept art. Concept isn't implementation. Saying it's lazy or not is basing ourselves on design decisions so far removed from the consumer that we can't say for sure. Hell, I've seen what lazy design does - it can ruin games. (soooooo many anecdotes on that, most of them I'm unable to tell due to losing my job maybe.)
I still don't care for the female design and think it should be more in line (albeit with Yugiri as tiniest version) with the male design though.
