Sexy is not bad. Stripping is not bad. Wearing sexy boots is not bad. You know what is bad? Pandering is. Being a lazy designer at the cost of catching a wider audience is.
A bounty hunter who runs over rugged terrain does not need stripper boots, she needs something with treads and function that can *gasp* still be sexy. I can picture a hybrid boot design that is feminine but rugged, functional but badass.
You know what conveys things like “boosters” and “power” and “high jump”? Springs, coils, energy cells, treads, jets… you don’t have to be literal but you also might want to show, not tell, what a prop does.
Depending on one’s opinion about what counts for those previously unchecked squares in yesterday’s “Easter-themed” bingo post, Fran WINS THE BINGO up to four times! A few followers pointed out three potentially eligible squares more to cross.
Just look (bolded the proposed additional squares for convenience):
Hey on the Fran bingo card, you can also mark that her nipples poke through. I’ve seen close ups of her chest, and you can see that it’s molded to her nipples. I love Fran but her armor is ridiculous.
Look at the way the top is designed; there’s nothing holding the front up. It’s kinda pretending to be a corset-type thing, but since they cut the stomach out, the bottom part is just dead weight rather than contributing support. The whole outfit should be dragging her breasts down, if it answered to gravity… As is, it’s certainly not lending any support, regardless of whether she’s likely to pop out a boob (which I’d say she is, but that’s more subjective).
So, without futher ado, here’s the updated bingo card for Fran!
TIME FOR MOTHER FUCKING BINGO THAT’S WHAT TIME IT IS!
WHO’S OUR FIRST FUCKING CONTESTANT? WELL WE GOT
THAT’S GODDAMN RIGHT. KILL LA FUCKING KILL. AND WHAT GAME ARE WE PLAYING? HOW ABOUT SOME FEMALE ARMOR BINGO!
WELP! THEY REALLY HIT THE GROUND RUNNING WITH EPISODE ONE! AND MIGHT I ADD THAT THEY’RE KILLIN’ IT OUT THERE WITH THAT HEAVY USE OF UNDERBOOB! I CAN ONLY IMAGINE WHERE WE’LL GO NEXT! STAY TUNED FOR MORE!
Until next time

What a perfect post to start Bingo Sundays with! Kill la Kill is an anime notorious for the costumes that seem to be made to combo-break the Female Armor Bingo.
For a more comprehensive look at Ryuko’s costume design, let’s have a peek at the official model sheet:
Seeing that I have to say that the OP, redrovershideaway, was VERY LENIENT towards this character when filling the bingo card and skipped many obvious squares, so let me propose a redux:
Who knew? It gave us a bingo and filled total 60% of the card. What a surprise, huh! 😉
