It’s time for Camilla from Fire Emblem to make another appearance.

She is given a promoted class in Fire Emblem Warriors with more cleavage. Apparently, she can be sexualized more, complete with “my eyes are up here.” Though unlike Fire Emblem Fates, she does remember to bring her axe and wyvern to her cut scenes in Fire Emblem Warriors, so silver lining.

Oh Camilla,.. it’s kind of amazing how much has and hasn’t changed since the last time you were given a bingo card.  Mostly it just seems a few squares like Bared Belly have become ambiguous and more boob straps have been added.

They’ve also somehow managed to lean into the armor as sexy lingerie and remind you, in case you somehow forgot, that she has big boobs:

Her intro video also makes it far, far too clear to us that in her default (not bingo’d here) outfit she is not wearing a thong.  I mean, I know it’s on the bingo card… but that level of clarity was really not necessary.

So, the new Fire Emblem on 3DS got announced…
Immediately, a certain female character gathered quite a number of followers.
How is she dressed you wonder?

I don’t even know what is going on in the lower bottom. Is that a flag?

Nintendo released a video showing its New Fire Emblem game and it looks really cool, but some of the armor is… questionable. Miss Purple Hair has some nice arm and waist armor, but they went the lingere route with the rest. Battle panties and a massive boob window don’t seem like a good choice for a war. The blond guy seems to be wearing very similar armor, but he gets to keep his pants on.
Fire Emblem has some really good examples of female armor, but then there are really bad ones like this. I never know what to expect.

At this point it’s just boring how “unique” her design is. A dress with crotch cut-out to see her panties nice and clear, the bubble breasts that have a weird belt jammed between them

..which reminds me a bit of this pointless and painful-looking “boob harness”.

So original! Much creative! Groundbreaking, even!

Surely this can’t be simple pandering, clearly there’s just some sort of complex message her that I can’t see because I’m not in the Fire Emblem fandom.  Let’s see what the fandom thinks of Camilla…

Oh…

You might be thinking that making a throwback about Camilla from Fire Emblem Warriors is lazy and boring, but we’re only putting in as much work as the marketing team. [x]

(Casual reminder that our original post went up in 2015.)

As long as they keep reusing 2-year-old marketing assets, we will continue criticizing them. Especially since it looks like that boob seatbelt has somehow gotten even worse; now it’s flat-out clipping into her flesh! That is clearly against the Breast Safety Council guidelines!

So no, Nintendo Life, I do not want to “feast my eyes” upon your trailer. I’m more likely to feast upon my eyes… yikes.

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

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?

~Ozzie

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.

This is for Camilla/Kamira from the recently announced fire emblem game. Her leg ornamentations are weirder than they initially seem as she’s supposed to be a wyvern rider. The saddest part is fire emblem armour used to look like this.
The game is currently unreleased so there is a possibility that she is in a cold climate at some point. She was only showed in a very recent trailer, a couple of screenshots and the box art so I had to use a extra few images to complete the bingo.
Heels can be seen here, male version of the armour can be seen here, and lack of actual breast support can be seen in this gif (which was not made by me).

In case anyone forgot, we still do think that Camilla’s design is pretty damn ridiculous, so we’re happy that among all submissions related to her was this bingo card.

I’d totally tick off “Bikini/lingerie shaped” and “Random patches of skin uncovered” too. The crotch-hole is possibly the most random cut-out for a non-sex-related outfit to have and it does show some skin.

PS: While usually I’m not very happy with how Tumblr crops tall images put beside shorter ones in photosets, and I don’t enjoy sexualized women’s faces going out of frame (fun fact: that’s why our icon shows the elf girl’s whole head instead of just her arrow-pierced chest)… here it seems appropriate. It depicts just how much focus is given to boobs and crotch compared to the rest of her… um… costume?
