Bullet-Resistant Power Armour


Power armour is meant to be stylish and protect the wearer at the same time, and the female armour from Mario Strikers Charged is no exception.

While the female attire in Mario Strikers Charged comprises of an armoured crop top that exposes the midriff and a pair of short shorts that looks more like a pair of boyshorts knickers, the breastplate being bullet-resistant is what matters most because the wearer will be subjected to getting smacked a lot, including getting smacked into an electric fence. At least the armour isn't brittle or fragile, unlike the Ghosts'n Goblins armour...

Groin Kicked


Contrary to popular belief, Sega's rivalry with Nintendo did not cease after Sega exited hardware production as a result of the Dreamcast's discontinuation. Tyris Flare kicking Princess Peach's groin in this comic is proof that Sega's rivalry with Nintendo is still ongoing.

In this comic where Princess Peach gets her groin kicked by Tyris Flare four times, Peach is wearing four different attires. Panel 1 is her Super Mario Strikers attire, Panel 2 is her Mario Strikers Charged attire, Panel 3 is her Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games swimsuit, and Panel 4 is her Super Mario Odyssey bikini.

The Weird Side of the Web


The Internet can sometimes be a weird place, and here are just twelve images that define Internet weirdness.

There were occasions where belly dancers' skirts fell down, resulting in their panties getting exposed. It's a good thing the panties prevented further indecent exposure, because it could have been worse for the belly dancer whose skirt fell down if she did not wear any panties.

Wearing shorts that are skin-tight may not be a good idea, because the back of the shorts could rip, resulting in underwear getting exposed. One must wonder how would Peach respond to other people's reactions to her ripped shorts.

Pantsing images are quite common, and many of these images are considered inappropriate, even if the panties that got exposed were bikini bottoms.

In the Splatoon series, Inklings dissolve in water, which explains the orange ink puddle and the floating Squid Girl swimsuit in the swimming pool.

Since 2021, Smurf accounts have been the targets of the banhammer because Smurf accounts ruin gaming experiences for many people.

Toad deserves to get stabbed by Link, Cloud, Yuko and Schezo for being a potentially destructive parasite in the guise of a helpless but irritating nuisance.

Animal Crossing Villagers do not like being stuck in pitfalls, and the male Villager is shocked after getting stuck in a pitfall.

Many Fall Guys players keep falling off the edge in stages that are suspended in the sky.

Forehead coin to funnel is weird because in involves pouring water through a funnel into somebody's pants. Panties were not meant to get wet, unless they were bikini bottoms.

When I went on a cruise ship in 2013, I went to watch an ice skating performance. A female ice skater took her removable skirt off her leotard near the end of the show.

The armors from Mario Strikers Charged are bulletproof and do not crack, in contrast to the brittle armors from Ghosts'n Goblins.

Boyshorts panties that look like the shorts worn by Pyra from Xenoblade Chronicles 2 actually exist. They may be tiny, but they are more modest than conventional panties. Even wearing a tiny pair of shorts as tiny as the one worn by Pyra under skirts or dresses helps to prevent panty shots.

Too Skimpy?


Skimpy costumes featured from left to right starting with the top row:

Row 1: The Justin Bailey leotard that happens to be what Samus wears in the second-best ending of Metroid (Metroid, 1986, Famicom Disk System, NES), Tyris Flare's bikini (without vambraces) (Golden Axe, 1989, Arcade, Sega Genesis), Hiromi's leotard (without armour) (Burning Force, 1989, Arcade), Silk's bikini (Cotton Series, 1991, various platforms starting with the Arcade), the green leotard worn by Celes (without belt and cape) (Final Fantasy VI, 1994, various platforms starting with the SNES).

Row 2: The swimsuit worn by Arle in the Puyo Puyo CD system version error screen (Puyo Puyo CD, 1994, TurboGrafx CD), Twinkle's leotard (Puzzle Bobble 3/Bust-A-Move 3, 1996, various platforms starting with the Arcade), Arle's PuyoLympics attire (PuyoLympics, 1998, PC), Arle's two-piece swimsuit in PuyoLympics (PuyoLympics, 1998, PC)Metroid Fusion ending outfit (Metroid Fusion, 2002, Game Boy Advance).

Row 3: Rikku's yellow bikini (Final Fantasy X-2, 2003, PlayStation 2), Metroid: Zero Mission ending outfit (Metroid: Zero Mission, 2004, Game Boy Advance), Peach's soccer attire (Super Mario Strikers, 2005, GameCube), Daisy's soccer attire (without armour) (Mario Strikers Charged, 2007, Wii).

Having female characters wear skimpy costumes sounds ridiculous, if the last panel was anything. However, the skimpy costumes are not the problem. It's the scenarios that the attires worn by the characters that make the video game players question the appropriateness of such costumes.

Note: Although this comic covers the topic on skimpy female costumes featured in video games from 1986 to 2007, not all skimpy female costumes found in video games from that time period are featured in this comic, with the biggest omission being Super Metroid's ending outfit, which was featured in a comic posted earlier on this blog.

More Rejected Smash Bros Alternate Costumes


While Zero Suit Samus' red and black costumes in the Super Smash Bros series are supposed to be references to her ending outfits from the NES Metroid and SNES Super Metroid, I think they should be replaced with the aforementioned ending outfits from their respective games. Also, the Mario Strikers series female soccer outfits should have been in Super Smash Bros Ultimate, but they would be impractical for Peach and Daisy as they would look like Zero Suit Samus' last two alternate costumes, and they would not comply with their moveset. The same can be said for the Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games female swimwear. However, I would like the Mario Strikers Charged armour to be a Mii Brawler costume instead. And the Squid Girl Inkling costume from Splatoon did not even show up in Super Smash Bros Ultimate because of either Masahiro Sakurai's no manga characters allowed policy or the manga and anime studios do not want to issue a license to have the costume in the game. But I really wish the next Super Smash Bros game will include alternate costumes that did not make the cut, and also licensing issues regarding anything that did not originate in a video game to not be a problem.
