I feel ya Chibi. I still love Nao but she really is a hot mess of conflicting character ideals.

That's different Lion, entirely. If that's the character they're fond of and wanna show love by cosplaying, but the character doesn't have a less revealing alt, well, that doesn't give you a ticket to catcall them. Cosplay=/=consent. Ever.
I was referring to comments on photos, most guys at conventions are way too awkward to say anything to a chick in person :lol:

They're probably better off recasting SSX as a not-Shu-benevolence-blower.
Yeah, having her not swoon all over Liu Bei and become utterly useless outside of clinging to his arm would be really, really nice.

I miss the days of DW5, where... it was there, but it wasn't like... the only thing she did.

Oh SSX, you deserve better.
Dw5 SSX was great. Not only did they perfect her design but she also was a good character with a really dramatic finish.

It all went south from there.
DW5 Zhenji was also an excellent character with just the right amount of confidence and ruthlessness not seen in most of the female cast. But then DW6 came along and softened her "sharp edges".

Oh it's definitely fine to look! That's the whole point! But degrading a girl? Not so much.

Actually canonically she WAS kinda forced to wear what she's wearing. Her grandpa gave her the armor claiming it was an old family heirloom. The game makes it out like she's naive for believing that as it's quite literally shiny new armor.


Ok so I guess with that knowledge, we can conclude that Naotora is consistent in her dress style. She's just retarded.

I still think it's in poor taste to talk about a girl's body like that when the reason she takes pics of her cosplays (usually, and if in the unusual case it is to flaunt herself, she makes it obvious) is for people to like how she portrays the character. *shrug*

A big thing among otaku culture in Japan and among a lot of men who consume porn there IS the ideal of defiling something pure and keeping it to yourself. They **** shame women horribly, but on the flipside, treat virginal women like goddesses. It's kinda creepy.
Kiddy diddlers, man. It's disturbing.

We really screwed them up with the bomb, scrambled their genes or something.

I think it's in poorer taste to show off the goods and expect people not to comment.

There's nothing consistent about that hot mess of a character design.

Also just noticed "s***" is censored but **** isn't.

I mean I guess I appreciate the former is considered more foul language, but on the other.... **** is ****? :lol:
Wait. What.
Shitting
****
THERE IS NO CONSISTENCY I SWEAR

And I still disagree. If a person likes a character they should be free to post pictures of themselves dressed as said character without being sexually harassed.

But your body is also part of the character, and if the character dresses skimpy, then it's at least a partially fanservice character.

When you go out in public you always have to keep in mind that you CAN'T control the messages other people are getting from your appearance and your demeanor. You have to be ready to deal with that.

If you don't want comments on your body, don't flaunt it. Love for a character doesn't change that.

I don't think it's sexual harassment to say somebody is hot, has nice tits or a nice ass or some comment of the sort online in response to a picture of somebody flaunting all of those things and essentially asking for attention.

If a guy were to take a picture of themselves in their underwear, I would assume they are asking for exactly the same kind of attention.

Is that why fans over there are pairing Zhao Yun with a buxom yet questionable virgin like Fan Yufeng as opposed to someone mannish and badass like Ma Yunlu?

To me that's a step down from blaming a girl for getting molested, and I'm not for that. You can't control others' comments, but others should be respectful enough to not say things they should know will make others uncomfortable.

There's also body language to keep in mind.
If a girl is clearly shaking her ass or tits for the camera and hasn't made comments about her bod, sure, whatever (but don't blame me if she complains). But if she's just in an action pose or posing normally, show some respect!

If you're cosplaying as someone like Naotora mere comments should not make you uncomfortable.

Unless they're like super creepy.

You don't have a right to not be uncomfortable, or to not be offended.

That's just life. You can't live in a hugbox. People are going to say things you don't like and don't agree with, and you have to learn how to deal with it and move on.

That's why the internet is so bad for kids these days. They can literally block any dissenting opinions from theirs and sit in a little echo chamber with only people who agree with them, NEVER having their thoughts or preconceptions challenged and grow up with no way to deal with it when real life hits them.

I still reel from the fallout of Aya Hirano playing hide the pickle with her bandmates. Otaku buring all their Haruhi figs and manga, breaking CDs, etc. It was on the one hand hilarious, and on the other, on behalf of Aya, very frightening.

In my opinion, that's a gigantic and absurd exaggeration. You're comparing somebody raping somebody else to somebody commenting on what they see.

It's not a step down from that, it's a whole staircase down. They're not comparable at all in my opinion.

I just think women should be respected. I don't see what's hard to get about that.
