Here we go again

Time to add to Langrisser’s sins against basic sanity in costume design

This is Priestess Mariel Sarlus.  I mean, I know nuns are often sexualized anyways, but really?!?

One of the things I always find truly baffling about a lot of these designs is they’re not trying to find integrate the fantasy setting with the sexy design… they’re just cutting windows and adding clothes you’d find in a modern day lingerie catalog (or sex shop).

I mean… unless I’m supposed to believe that part of her role as priestess is to set some sort of example for pubis grooming.

Chaos Dragon and Gender Flips

whereismywizardhat submitted:

You know, in the adaptation from one medium to another, Gender flips happen.  Most of the time, it’s actually to balance out a mostly male cast with some female characters, which is good.

Here’s what’s not good

This is from the anime Chaos Dragon, an adaptation of the light novel series based upon Gen Urobuchi and Kinoko Nasu’s tabletop game sessions.  This is Lou Zhenjie, Urobuchi’s character.  Notice the difference, beyond the genderswap, in how the character is treated?

It’s pretty terrible.

And people tell us that the parodies we feature are too ridiculous… I tend to think they’re not ridiculous enough!

So you recall that Mobius game?…

Well aside from that the main character, Wal, had his gloriously empowered hips and obliques shunned under a black cloth, two characters were introduced to the story,

The formidable, scary-looking quiet,  and blunt Garland

Mobius Final Fantasy Garland

And then there’s this cutesy little fairy that aids you in Battle, known as Echo. It sounds all dandy, until you see her design…

Totally not a rip-off of Hatsune Miku..

… *sigh* So much potential for brave new ideas for this game, but Square – just like Wal’s hip line- backed out and went down the old beaten path of double standard design in games. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go sob in the corner for what could have been…

Okay, usually the necktie between cleavage thing strikes me as overkill… but necktie attached to a collar, between cleavage with a necktie shaped window underneath, with a tiebar that connects to random straps just there to outline her boobs, is just beyond ridiculous.

Meanwhile apparently it’s too much to ask that Wal get to show off that body that he’s spent so long working out and dieting for.
