I present to you… nameless green giant warrior from the One Piece mobile treasure cruise game… Now I don’t know if these designs are by the big guy Eiichiro Oda himself but… she’s pretty much a good representation for what One Piece has devolved into tbh. (You’ll also notice high heels)
I believe Treasure Cruise has a leveling system and this is her first form to upgraded form?
Male giants for comparison:
I live in a house with a staggering amount of One Piece merchandise throughout it and would never have picked this as being vaguely related without being told.
That’s not to say that One Piece doesn’t dip into the usual fan service tropes but compare the above to say…
Seriously, boobs and generic dudes are not an acceptable substitute for off the wall wackiness. They could at least have tried to make these designs interesting or at least entertaining.
Four medievalist photographs by Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (Lewis Carroll)
Rose Lawrie in ‘Waiting for the Trumpet’, 7 July 1875. Wearing chain-mail specially made by Henry Holiday, illustrator of The Hunting of the Snark. Evelyn Dubourg as ‘Joan of Arc’, 12 July 1875 (two versions) Marion Terry as ‘Fitz-James’, 12 July 1875. Interestingly ‘Fitz-James’ is a male character from Sir Walter Scott’s The Lady of the Lake; the photograph is inscribed with a quote from the poem.
UM. THIS IS GREAT. Reblogging for posterity + future reference.

As in, rhetoric about games that is garbage, not rhetoric about garbage games. (But possibly also that.)
Obviously inspired (and based off of with permission from the lovely Ozzie) by @bikiniarmorbattledamage, here is a bingo of terrible arguments against social justice style critiques of video games. I am clearly not an artist; if you want to pretty this up, go ahead, that would be super cool.
You can use this to your heart’s content for dealing with inane arguments.
Below the cut, a breakdown of the squares and why they’re wrong.
Inspired by Bikini Armor Battle Damage’s Female Armor Rhetoric Bingo, we present to you a special extra related bingo card this week, @feministgamingmatters ’s Garbage Games Rhetoric Bingo.
Fun for the whole family to play pretty much any time any major franchise receives even the slightest call out, critique or makes an independent effort to try to appeal to more people.

Not in Samurai Warriors, not in Dynasty Warriors…and most certainly not the last time they teamed up with Team Ninja to help Nintendo create Hyrule Warriors.
Above all, this is certainly not a problem spread throughout video games.
