I’m not any good at being funny, but I needed to share this since it’s so perfectly bikini armour. Now, to preface, I’m not going to pretend that One Piece does its female characters and their clothing any kind of justice, since the longer the series goes on, the more clothing the two leading ladies lose… But then you have Rebecca…
Who literally wears a chainmail bikini. And her signature fight style isn’t fighting at all, it’s dodging. That’s right, her key strategy, in those clothes, is evasion. How is she not dead?
First of all, as you said, dodging =/= fighting, so why the pretense of “warrior” outfit and weapon in the first place? Second, how does the use of dodging as a battle strategy guarantee you won’t ever get hit, and therefore won’t need actual protection?
And how is that scalemail bikini top supposed to work without a tit falling out?
Boob window is designed to remind us that characters have boobs. Let’s don’t forget about male characters. But I don’t think he is thrilled.
I definitely appreciate how pronounced his man-boobs are in this drawing. So… It’s a moob pec window! What a nice change of pace 🙂
Apparently the screencap is from a jRPG titled Atelier Iris 2: The Azoth of Destiny.

edit: Switched up “moob” for “pec”, as the former is considered a body shaming (and/or transphobic) term.

So, I love Final Fantasy, I’ve played it since I could hold a controller. But in the final installment of FFVII You’re faced with the Deep Ground Soldiers, a syndicate of a sort, while you play as Vincent… shooting at them… But what bugged me was the fact that the females weren’t issued the nice sturdy functioning pants the dudes have, and those guys even get a nice little protective crotch piece! (because lord knows you gotta protect your junk from magic spells and bullets) Aside from that, they have some pretty good looking helmets and the chest plate is that a chest plate, not a dented boob plate. But still why the dang leotard? I sure as heck wouldn’t join an underground army with that uniform. But then one of their leader’s Rosso… *sigh* she falls as the stereotypical “sexy villain” with an insatiable bloodlust, but that’s it, the rest I’m sure has already been covered.
