The thing about Samus is that her silence spoke volumes.
She is sent in the 2nd game to commit genocide of an entire species, life draining monsters that could kill her and turn her body to ash in moments, but she goes in anyway, its what she's paid to do.
I would imagine she would have issues but would put everything aside simply for the sake of the mission, that's kind of air you get about her because of her silence and the situation she's put into. She does what needs to because its expected of her.
Unfortunately Sakamato is an idiot and its his fault we got the game we did and waifu Samus, that's really the issue here and Sakamoto isn't solely responsible for that, Samus was just Samus, the bad-ass hunter, now its to much focus on how is she outside of the suit(skintight blue suit, blue eyed blod), they are over sexualizing her to much in my opinion.

Nah, man, be proud of this! Fantastic emotion in those eyes! Terror, but also something wild, like a cornered animal. Love the grayscale, color would distract and the piece would emote less I think. When I'm famous and powerful, will you storyboard my Metroid film for me? We have similar views on her characterization. Until then, post with pride.
Other M is a sequel to the Metroid manga just as much as it is to Super Metroid. Samus spoke in the manga, and she (understandably) had the same emotional issues. Other M didn't change Samus, it's just that people assumed things about her without knowing the character as well as they thought.
And just because she's the way she is in Other M doesn't mean she all of a sudden doesn't kick ass anymore. She's still as strong as she's always been. She just has humanity now, as well.

Awesome drawing!
As for Samus in other M, I can see why people didn't like her in the game, but I think it's a little nuts to say that her depiction in the game is "sexist". It's similar to when when people said Jar Jar Binks was racist. Throwing the terms "racist" and "sexist" around like that really weakens their meaning.
People tend to get pretty hostile towards stuff they don't like, but you've got to reserve accusations of sexism for when you really mean them. Samus spends most of Other M out performing male characters, making logical decisions, and generally kicking ass, all while in her traditional power suit. To put her in the same category as the women of the Dead or Alive series is pretty serious stretch.
Not that you said that or anything. I'm just thinking out loud.

@Kyousuke Nanbu: More than "oversexualized" she's "too pretty" to me. I don't know if that actually makes sense but I guess she wouldn't worry too much about her looks being alone in the middle of the space inside a robotic armor. I'd like to see her in a rougher version.
@DynamoJoe: That's really the feeling I was going for! I thought I haven't got it right and of course I'd like to work on that storyboard for your film!
@pedrovay2003: I really don't know anything about the manga, what I care about are the games and I'm not saying she doesn't kick-ass in other M and I get she has "humanity" now but to me it really was just weak... I enojyed the game to a certain level, it wasn't terrible but compared to the rest of the Metroid Saga at least for me is the worst.
@Jonathan Holmes: Holmes! I'm a great fan of your work, thanks for "thinking out loud" on my drawing!
I actually didn't say anything about "sexism" and I agree with what you say, I wouldn't put her in the Doa category but I'd like to see her in a little rougher version, somehow like what they're doing with the new Lara Croft game.
@Mr Andy Dixon: Thanks!!
Thanks everyone for your comments!
Also, is there a way I can "UNfap"? I mistakenly clicked the Fap button on my own post so it's kinda sucky.
