Searching on BABD
We get requests regarding some topics that we covered a while ago. Whenever possible we try to tag posts so that it’ll be easy to find topics. Here’s a few we’ve had recently:
- The Hobbit
- Kill la Kill
- Skyrim
We appreciate your enthusiasm, but due to the way Tumblr manages shared blogs it’s just not really workable to reply to these asks without creating confusion for us or others.

So, I went to the new Fire Emblem site and…
Lucas submitted:

There are a lot of “strong female characters” there, even our old friend Camilla and some others!
This last is so absurd i have no idea what class she is supposed to be. Maybe it’s a new class called “Bikini Knight”?
I am a long time fire emblem fan you know? I used to waste hours on the GBA ones. I try really hard to tell my friends that Fire Emblem is a serious strategy game and not a waifu dating sim, but they always laugh at my face and call me a pevert.
I don’t think i am going to buy this game anymore…
Thank you for the submission, we appreciate the commentary (I especially enjoy the waifu simulator comparison).
If I didn’t know better, I’d probably assume this IS just some “knight”-themed porny visual novel/dating sim akin to Sakura Fantasy, not some high fantasy strategy adventure game from a long-standing franchise.
Still, you forgot to mention one very important thing:
There’s literally a phallic object sticking out from between Camilla’s boobs!
THERE’S LITERALLY A PHALLIC OBJECT STICKING out FROM BETWEEN CAMILLA’S BOOBS!
THERE’S. LITERALLY. A. PHALLIC. OBJECT. STICKING. OUT. FROM BETWEEN. CAMILLA’S. BOOBS.
…is it supposed to be related to that cleavage-seatbelt we noticed in her before?

I’m beginning to think that the cleavage-seatbelt was inspired more by tentacles than armor.

Edit: We’ve been informed that the object between Camilla’s boobs IS indeed her boob belt, just drawn incompetently for that angle. It wouldn’t even occur to me, considering perspective on other parts of character are okay in this image.

What do you think of the argument that women can be “sexy and badarse at the same time”
It all depends on the larger conversation and the overall motive behind the argument really.
If someone argues that say, women are complicated people and thus capable being many things and showcasing it as the situation requires – thus one may be still sexy when in full armor and badarse down to her bones.
If someone uses it as an attempt to silence criticism regarding character design by claiming that since the character is doing badarse things, having her always dressed in sexy lingerie makes it more impressive and empowering?
