In case you thought Dahlia/Tsuki was the only problematic female character design in Xenoblade Chronicles 2… Here’s the game’s protagonist, Pyra, whose bizarre boobsocks became a meme in their own right!
Last horizontal image found on a forum where people are discussing whether or not her in-game model actually wears thong over those short shorts… Comparing it with concept art, it seems like that’s not the case, but boy does that Tracer-style deep buttcrack and shape of the belt (?) right above it make it look suspiciously a lot like thong.
The only positive surprise about that costume is how flat and wearable the heels of her shoes look! Despite which she still is constantly posed as if she was wearing heels two inch taller.

From Xenoblade Chronicles 2 the character Tsuki, sadly designed by a woman: Risa Ebata. (Source.)
Judging by that last picture… is she related to Haydee?
Seriously though, a couple readers let us know about problems with female designs in Xenoblade Chronicles 2, especially this character, Dahlia/Tsuki.
And in all frankness, what i saw of her already made me legitimately fear doing any further research.
Her feet alone make me feel like retracting all the things I said about Fran’s stupid, stupid “I totally need high heels because bunny-person” feet… things I still stand by!
I recommend filtering the experience by reading this Dorkly article, which quotes quite a few good jokes and/or comments about the game’s problems with women characters.

She has rabbit high heels??

I’ve seen a few members of a key demographic claiming the image is PhotoShopped… strangely none of them can provide an image that disproves it… just other terrible images of her in different poses.
