This is a Yu-Gi-Oh equipment spell card. It might give the wearer a big boost in their attach stats, but what it doesn’t say on the card is that the defense of the wearer will drop even more…
(Yu-gi-oh has lots of bad cards, it’d be a bad idea to send all of them your way, but this one is so BABD-appropriate, I couldn’t hell myself)

Seeing how bingo-qualifying this… thing is, I checked out what those harpy lady sisters who can be equipped with the “shield” look like… Let’s agree the anime didn’t disappoint my morbid curiosity. Also, apparently English version of the card censored out the protruding nipple spikes:

I didn’t cross out the “More advanced armor = skimpier”, cause the harpies seem to wear this spiky atrocity on top of their usual bodypaint “clothes”:

The boyfriend has been playing Fate/Extella: Umbral Star. When he showed me Sabre’s ultimate form I immediately thought of Female Armor Bingo. I couldn’t find a better picture of the armor, but this get the point across.

Looks like we’re a winner winner chicken dinner!

Found one picture that shows a bit more of her bottom half.

My reactions, in order:

  1. WTF, Saber?
  2. Did she steal Princess Solange’s nipple pasties and general sense of fashion?
  3. Oh, right, BINGO! It should be Even a double bingo, because nothing she wears would be considered “underwear”.

Okay, so technically Alma’s look is a “form” from Ninja Gaiden but I’m going to count it as armor because well it’s apparently an artificial look designed for battle and well once you beat her enough it does change and then, after more beating, it kind of melts off her as seen in this heart touching moment with her sister Rachel.

Butt shot included because it is literally how this character is pitched in the marketing materials for this game.

thank god n7 armor conforms to my feminine 20 inch waist

And gives my boobs little hatches, i mean we wouldnt want my boobs to NOT have little hatches they could escape thru before the rest of the body dies

@kathteamonroe this just in on “stupid design for female characters”

@bikiniarmorbattledamage

So, after the posing double standard fiasco on promotional image last year, Mass Effect Andromeda fixed it and gave female and male character the same exact pose in more recent artwork… yet introduced a whole slew of new double standard problems instead, like obvious body type difference and what seems to be the next stage of boobplate: nipple hatches.

One step forward, two steps backwards. This is very awkward, Bioware.

I’ve been holding back on commenting too much on Andromeda promotion material just because it’s been a wild ride and, as we’ve covered previously, Mass Effect has an odd history of jumping back and forward with quality of female costumes.

Given the juxtaposition between Dragon Age’s general design shifts and Mass Effect’s I can’t help but worry part of this this problem is that since Mass Effect is science fiction and hence seen as more accessible it gets more interference from Creepy Marketing Guy.

This is doubly a shame since it would be nice if we could have a vision of the future where these kind of double standards are not an issue.

This @eschergirls post made me seek out what’s up with art in that Zombicide expansion… Let’s agree the search wasn’t fruitless. 

What do random physics-defying golden bikini boob-and-butt posing supermodels with viking-like names have to do with a tabletop game about zombie apocalypse is anyone’s guess.

PS: Before someone types out “there’s an empowered dude in the set!” as a response, take note how Konrad’s body is not displayed in the same manner  as Undraal’s and Arbwal’s. He’s basically over-accesorrized Conan (and also another Nord character with Pict blue tattoos, because screw research!).

Since in my last bingo I visited League of Maidens’ Wonder Wo… Athena, natural next choice is Angela, I mean Persephone and her totally legit, gravity-defying spiky fetish nipple holders… I mean armor.

Now THAT is a supreme example of the kind of unironically sexist commercial design the Female Armor Bingo was made for. Which is not a good thing. At all.

It’s been a long time since we saw gravityless spiky boob things so reminiscent of the worst TERA Online has to offer.

Refreshingly honest marketing?

Though why they treat “leaves nothing to imagination” like a positive thing is a mystery.

~Ozzie

I want to say that it probably doesn’t contain anything from imagination either (seriously look how desolate and boring the landscape behind her is) but I’m pretty sure that outfit and anatomy have nothing to with reality.
