Dear The Chosen, I’m at a loss at words… Seriously, at this point why bother putting any clothes on them? Do they even wear anything below the waist? Just cut to the chase, and make straight out porn, who are you kidding with this “game”…?

Watching the video the women do seem to have more clothed versions as well, but all the screenshots and most of their video appearances feature the mostly naked version, clearly showing which one the developers felt more important. (Marked the “looks nothing like the male version” because, though not a single male character appears in CG form, the sprites look significantly more covered. Though they aren’t all necessarily the same outfit, but at least the “armoured” girl qualifies as roughly the same.)

For the record here are the more covered versions from the video:

Even these would manage to score a few marks on the bingo.

The combination of the highly original title and these screencaps makes me think that since this game is NOT a fantasy beauty pageant adventure (where 50% of the pageant is the swimsuit section).

Instead it’s apparently (based on reviews) a super generic RPG that asks the question “Will you become the Chosen?”, suggesting that they missed the whole point of being a “Chosen” is someone else chooses you.

Unsurprising that they chose to promote it by showing the characters transform from “fully” clad to underwear. It’s not like they bothered to offer anything else.

Medabots: Girls Mission Has Its Own Costume Break System

From Siliconera:

Medabots: Girls Mission is the series’ first CERO C rating, and Rocket Company’s latest info on the game shows us that it also has a new costume-destruction system.

By filling up your special attack meter, you can perform the “Medaforce” attack. In Medabots: Girls Mission, you can do a “Medaforce Burst” by filling it up to 200%. Additionally, while performing the finishing blow with it, a special command window appears.

By successfully inputting the command on time, you can perform a “Hyper Finish” that blows away the clothes of the opponent. Each girl and Medabot have their own special scenes for this feature.

The “Ogre Maxim” is a feature that vastly increases a Medabot’s capabilities. This can be used once per Robattle, and the lower the points for parts are, the more effective and longer the effects of it becomes.

The Ogre Maxim increases parts abilities, shortens cooldown time of the parts, and also incerases the Medaforce Gauge. Using this system can turn the tables of the battle.

Medabots: Girls Mission Kabuto and Kuwagata will release in Japan on March 10, 2016.

Medabots is a friggin kid’s show.  WHO IS THIS FOR?!

Were you horrified by the weird unlicensed Pokemon-as-sex-objects game? Welcome to the next level!

For those not aware, Medabots was a cute game for children that was adapted to manga and anime from the 90s-early 2000s.  The anime was localized for English speakers by Fox Kids and there’s a significant English fan group who campaigning to get everything localized and Nintendo is re-releasing the games that did get localized on the Wii U

Extra Credits did a great episode on children’s properties getting gritty reboots, but it seems that instead of going with the “gritty” reboot, they’re going with the “porny” reboot – specifically the “humiliate women by forcibly undressing them” route.

Now, before the comments section gets flooded with outrage about creative freedom and this is a Japan only game, I’d like to clarify a few things:

  • While it is a Japanese game still owned by it’s original publishers, it’s not being created by it’s original developers (who basically got cut off in 2010 due to business restructuring)
  • Everything suggests the original developers felt the franchise was appropriate for everyone and they’d love it to get localized, it’s just technical and resource allocation issues that come with having multiple companies involved – not “cultural differences”
  • This is really not “a Japan thing”.  Anyone who was a Thundercats fan as a child and had the misfortune to pick up a copy of Wildstorm’s comics knows what I’m walking about.

  • Neither of these are fan productions or porn parodies, these are licensed products of children’s entertainment which apparently felt softcore porn was a suitable addition.

Does anyone else notice a pattern here?  How about a few more pics:

When your attire is so impractical that you need to loop your dog tags off your belt rather than wear them around your neck, it’s time to stop taking comfort in having safety glasses and get off the battlefield.
