im sure this is part a Trope and part a cultural thing in Japan around being single on the 30s.
I mean, most of the consumer base does cap at around 30s. so I see why anime stuff will target those on those ages and below tho. but once again it shift from Genre to Genre, if you are looking for Shonen Show with Mature women as MC, that is a hard bet
I don't understand how that's an example of objectification? Generally don't blades keep their emotional maturity? Dromarch acts as one of the oldest members of the party even though he has to have been activated sometime after Nia was born going by how it works. Blades lose their memories but this is deconstructed somewhat in the story with many blades dreading or trying to avoid it.
I think that's an unfair interpretation of what's going through her mind. I feel like it's more about social anxiety than feeling too old for romance. It's just that the former often leads to the latter. Sure does for me :P
Ok the whole point about me being sarcastic about that anime was because the person was coming into conversation with a "buuuuuuuut" then leaving us with one example when this wasn't the case when we were dicussing the growing normalizing trend. I don't care if this one anime is the exception to the rule and what I've seen of it, it looks decent, sure, but what's happening now is that we're talking about an anime I don't care about and ignoring the original point altogether, which was the annoyance of the fact that even in the general agelessness of anime faces, women are still getting progressively younger looking regardless of age.
Those slutty outfits aren't the reason I bought the game. Bandai Nampo really did not have faith in the game selling without sexualizing the females?
Well all right, that's fair. I just thought it was worth clarifying!
Pablo Mesa got banned for a week for posting a gamer gate comic in the fat representation thread. This may seem petty, I just think it's important to keep that in mind when he inevitably returns to this thread.
Back on-topic, I've been playing Gravity Rush 2 lately. How do people feel about Kat's design? Have she already been discussed?
Cool!
And that's really the key. If a design effectively communicates what the character is supposed to be, then it's probably going to be a good design. In Kat's case, the high heels are a bit much, but other than that, she's pretty cool.
I've learned that this is asking way too much from people. Gamers are rather simple minded - I like this game, it's literally perfect. And this person who made this game I like is a genius and a 神様 (translator note: 神様 means based god).

There's a 4 koma or something on that.
Here it is:
What is Frontier?
From Sailor Moon to Precure, most characters from shows aimed at little girls wear heels. At least if they have a magical transformation of sorts.
The 3 most recent Precure seasons:
So I'll be the first to admit that fan service usually doesn't bother me. But there are times when I see something so silly even I have to laugh at it.
I just started Fate/Grand Order and I know it's a kinda a waifu series but still. It's interesting to see there interpretations of myth and legends. And then you get stuff like this.
Presenting Sir Francis Drake!
Wait so what was wrong with Frontier? What's that got to do with this?
There is no better way as a woman to protect yourself than having the "open cleavage of doom" look going on.
Nah you can tell those boobs are just part of the costume/disguise. Compare the skin color of the cleavage to the face and hands, it's not the same.

Not to mention that her breasts are also glistening? From uh... glitter? These are the weirdest post-processing effects I've seen in a while... and so creepily specific too.
Saber happened now they have to do it for everyone else. Are there any historical females turned male?Like I knew this game had some really fanservicy designs, I expected that. But then I pull that with the name "Francis Drake" and I just bust out laughing.
For comparison sake I also pulled Oda Nobunaga.
FWIW it's mostly FateGO that's the issue. No better way to get gacha money than shoving titties or (far far worse, imo) underage looking girls in skimpy outfits in there for the otaku to buy up. The other Fate series are less fanservicey, afaik.
She looks like a copy of Morag... or is Morag a copy of her? That is uncanny.Like I knew this game had some really fanservicy designs, I expected that. But then I pull that with the name "Francis Drake" and I just bust out laughing.
