Wearing It Better 2

Swimsuits worn by my OC Turquoise in this comic, from left to right: Zelda's pink swimsuit from "Fairies In The Spring" (The Legend of Zelda TV series), Kagome's swimsuit from "The Toad Who Would Be Prince" (Inuyasha), Squid Girl's swimsuit (Squid Girl).

Author's Note: Turquoise is once again in another comic inspired by the "Who Wore It Better?" meme. This time, it's about swimsuits from various franchises.

There is just one instance of Zelda wearing a swimsuit, and that was in the Legend of Zelda TV series episode "Fairies In The Spring". This was also the only time where The Legend of Zelda series had a water park episode, which will be the closest this franchise will get to a beach episode.

But The Legend of Zelda series isn't the only case of a major female character wearing a swimsuit for one instance in official canon. At the start of the Inuyasha episode "The Toad Who Would Be Prince", we get to see Kagome swimming in a lake in her yellow and orange striped swimsuit. But that will be the only time we get to see Kagome in swimwear.

In contrast, Squid Girl gets to wear her white swimsuit on far more occasions, which makes far more sense due to the premise of Squid Girl being set in a town located near the sea.

If Turquoise were to wear any of these swimsuits, did she wear them better?

Warrior Swimsuit

In the 1986 Sunsoft game The Wing of Madoola, the game's heroine Lucia is wearing what appears to be a warrior swimsuit. This evidence is supported by the box art.

If you wanted to know what Lucia's warrior swimsuit looks like without the armor, it makes her look like she is Sunsoft's answer to Wonder Woman.

Opinions on Sukumizu Inklings

I'm very sure the female Inklings from the Splatoon series would love to wear the school swimsuit worn by Ushio Kofune from Summer Time Rendering. The biggest problem, however, is that the Inklings are severely hydrophobic. This explains why you don't get to see Inklings in swimwear outside of Splatoon fan art.

Sukumizu Daioh Rendering

Go figure that the sukumizu school swimsuits from Azumanga Daioh and Summer Time Rendering bear strong resemblances to conventional one-piece swimsuits unlike the average Anime sukumizu school swimsuit.

Suited For The Ice Buckets

Can we all agree that one-piece swimsuits are better than two-piece swimsuits when it comes to the Ice Bucket Challenge?

Two Panties

Author's Note: The panties in this comic are not panties to begin with. Rather, the panty in the first panel that Arle took off in the middle panel is a buruma, while the panty in the last panel is the bottom part of her two-piece swimsuit. Both of these sports attires come from the Puyo Puyo sports spin-off PuyoLympics.

Swimming Pool Matriarch Visual Gag Variations 7

Author's Note: Can you believe that it has been several months since the last time I posted a Matriarch of the Swimming Pool Visual Gag Variations comic? Maybe time constraints do have a very serious effect on comic production after all...

I'm very sure Sofia the First from Disney's Sofia the First is secretly a Blaster Master fangirl because the vehicle driven by Jason in the Sunsoft NES game Blaster Master was named Sophia the Third.

Remember Sakura Kinomoto's Water Jester costume from Episode 3 of Cardcaptor Sakura? This battle costume is iconic because it appeared in both the anime and the manga. Given that the main part of Sakura's Water Jester costume had to be a water-resistant dress, it's possible that the core part of the battle costume is a swimsuit.

The default female Mii and Guest F are twin sisters because their faces are totally identical. The only difference is that the default female Mii wears a red shirt while Guest F wears a pink shirt.

Given that Mario likes Italian food, this mushroom eater would definitely love lasagna, meaning Garfield is not alone.

Starting from the London 2012 edition of Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games, female characters get to wear gymnastics leotards that double as swimming costumes. Rosalina is playable in the gymnastics events of the Rio 2016 edition of Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games. However, Rosalina does not appear in the swimming events, meaning the leotard that she wears in the gymnastics events did not go for a swim at all.

Swimming in a leotard sounds like an absurd idea since leotards are not designed to go swimming. However, all of that changed when Destira designed leotards that can double as swimsuits. Therefore, Sakura Kinomoto's Water Jester leotard possibly being a swimsuit, as well as the leotards worn by the female characters doubling as swimsuits in the swimming events of Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games series, makes sense now.

Bondi Beach Swimwear

If there was one beach synonymous with summer in Australia, it has to be Bondi Beach. However, Bondi Beach isn't the only beach in Australia. There are many more other beaches in Australia, with the beaches in Gold Coast being the most notable ones.

No visit to any of Australia's beaches is complete without being dressed in swimwear. The strapless one-piece swimsuits from MapleStory's Cash Shop are a great choice, and so is the two-piece swimsuit worn by Arle in PuyoLympics. These swimsuits are also suitable for the Ice Bucket Challenge as well. That's why swimwear, Australian beaches and the Ice Bucket Challenge go hand in hand.

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.

Even more things that are better than Internet Censorship

Author's Note: Once again, I bring you yet another comic about things I would rather be than to be somebody who censors the Internet for any reason whatsoever. Looks like I really dislike Internet Censorship a lot.

They are not diamonds, but sapphires are definitely something I would like to be. After all they are attractive to ladies as well, especially the sapphires from MapleStory.

Speaking of MapleStory, the strapless one-piece swimsuits that female players can purchase from the Cash Shop are attractive because wearing them makes the female players attractive.

Maron from Astra Superstars is wearing a skimpy attire, and yes, she is wearing a pair of panties as outerwear.

I would prefer to be one of those weapons from the Worms games than to censor the Internet, and one of these weapons is a "pineapple" grenade. At least I could destroy any pawn of Internet Censorship by exploding in their face if I were a grenade. Another weapon from the Worms games would be the land mine. If I were a land mine, I would explode anyone who steps on me. Yet another weapon from the Worms games I would rather be is a dynamite. At least I could blast any pawn of Internet Censorship if I could be deployed against them.

Last but not least, the long line tetromino from Tetris is definitely what I would rather be than to be a pawn of Internet Censorship. The long line has always been the greatest of Tetris pieces because in the right conditions, four rows of blocks get cleared. Maybe I could crush anyone who wants to censor the Internet if I get the chance to do so.

Track And Field Swimwear

The real reason the female athletics attire was designed to look like swimwear is because it would enhance the athlete's running performance. And if the female athletics attire look like female swimwear, maybe they should be worn for triathlons because swimming is involved in triathlons.

Arcade Memories

If you can remember playing the Arcade version of Tetris Plus and upon completing the Standard Difficulty levels for the first time, found out that there is another set of levels called the Expert Difficulty levels, and then going on to complete the Expert Difficulty levels where completion rewards you with the ending where you get to see the Professor's Assistant in a swimsuit, then you do have nostalgia.

It's sad that arcades are on the decline amid financial turmoil. This left many arcade cabinets abandoned, and many of them do not even get to have a new owner and a new home. In other words, financial problems have always been the real reason for the passage of time being cruel to us...

Leotard Swimsuit

Female swimsuits that resemble long-sleeve gymnastics leotards actually exist. It sounds crazy, but it's officially true. Swimwear designers actually looked to long-sleeve gymnastics leotards to get inspiration for new swimsuit designs, which resulted in long-sleeve swimsuits that resemble gymnastics leotards.

It gets even crazier when you learn that leotards that can be worn as swimsuits exist. The Water Jester Costume from Cardcaptor Sakura comprises of a water-resistant dress and a blue leotard, which makes some people wonder if it is actually a swimsuit. In the Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games series, the female characters wear gymnastics leotards that function as swimsuits in the swimming events. If these instances of leotards being worn for situations where they will get wet are crazy, then you have not heard of the leotards offered by Destira. Some of their leotards can be worn as swimsuits. This means Cardcaptor Sakura and the Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games series both laid the foundations for leotards that are designed to be worn as swimsuits.

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.

Remembering The Good Times

Who can remember the good times from before 2020? I can. Especially when the first half of the 2010s were happier days due to the Ice Bucket Challenge. Even having a photo-taking session before jumping into a lake brought so much joy back in the days before 2020. After all, girls do like to look good in swimwear before getting wet, whether by jumping off a cliff into a lake or doing the Ice Bucket Challenge.

Swimming Pool Matriarch Visual Gag Variations 3

Once again, it's time for another Matriarch of the Swimming Pool visual gag variations comic.

Can you believe it's been 2 weeks since Steamboat Willie entered the Public Domain? Guess Disney had finally thrown in the towel and let the cartoon that marked the debut of Mickey Mouse go into the Public Domain, in what could well be the greatest victory for Fair Use.

Is it really a coincidence that Wii Party U and Wii Fit U both came out in Japan on the same day? Not really. According to several sources, the Japanese release dates of Wii Party U and Wii Fit U were stated to be on 31 October 2013.

If you have watched the Legend of Zelda TV series, you would have known that one of the show's 13 episodes, "Fairies in the Spring", is a water park episode, which happens to be the only time where Zelda is officially seen wearing a swimsuit. Since then, Zelda hasn't been seen in swimwear outside of fan art.

LG used to be one of the manufacturers of the 3DO video game console. After the 3DO was discontinued, LG stopped making video game consoles for all markets.

Some professional chefs who are not Italian have officially confirmed that pineapples should not be pizza toppings at all.

Did you know that Germany once operated MiG-29 fighter jets? When the Federal Republic assimilated East Germany, the Luftwaffe inherited East Germany's MiG-29s. Then Germany sold their MiG-29s to Poland for €1 per aircraft. This sounds ironic given that Germany was Poland's biggest enemy in World War 2, as well as stupid, especially when MiG-29s were among the best Russian-made fighter jets. But it's not. Selling military hardware for symbolic prices is merely to clear up your inventory of equipment that you no longer have any use for. Therefore, it makes sense that Germany wants to be rid of Soviet-era equipment by selling them off for ludicrously low prices because Germany no longer has any use for them.

Ice Bucket Challenge 10th Anniversary Edition

2024 marks the 10th Anniversary of the Ice Bucket Challenge that went viral. Unfortunately, the people who inspired the Challenge, namely Anthony Senerchia Jr, Pete Frates and Pat Quinn, are dead. This means the Ice Bucket Challenge 10th Anniversary Edition will be dedicated to the memory of these three people as well as SpongeBob SquarePants creator Stephen Hillenburg, all of whom have died from ALS-related complications.

For those wondering if the two ladies in this comic are going to wear swimsuits for the Ice Bucket Challenge, the answer is yes. In fact, the swimsuits worn by Peach, Daisy, Rosalina and Samus would be among some of the best choices for the two ladies who want to look good after getting wet in the Ice Bucket Challenge.

If you want to know why swimwear and ice buckets go hand in hand, read my other two Ice Bucket Challenge-themed comics.

Swimming Pool Matriarch Visual Gag Variations

Author's Note: This comic was inspired by the Senpai of the Pool meme, which in turn was inspired by the Panzer of the Lake meme.

Ah, yes. Nothing like a visual gag variations comic. It gets even better when combined with existing Internet memes.

You do remember that comic where leotards and lingerie looked similar to female swimwear. Well, it turns out leotards and lingerie did influenced modern female swimwear designs. That's why leotards and lingerie look similar to female swimsuits.

Pulling down anybody's pants or skirt is no longer funny and can get you into trouble with the long arm of the law. Even the bikini top falling off cliche is not funny anymore and some call for wardrobe malfunctions and deliberate underwear exposure to be banned.

Pokemon's Professor Oak was called Professor Okido in the Japanese version. But the Japanese word for Oak is Ooku, not Okido. This means Game Freak had been lying to Pokemon fans all along. Speaking of falsehoods in the Pokemon franchise, did you know that Ash "Satoshi" Ketchum does not have a surname in the Japanese version? The idea of Ash having the surname Ketchum was actually Nintendo of America's idea when they were localizing Pokemon Red and Blue, as well as the Pokemon TV series.

Remember the times when Magical Girls were portrayed as heroines of justice with attitude? Unfortunately, Puella Magi Madoka Magica ruined everything we love about magical girls. Simply put it, Puella Magi Madoka Magica lied about the promotional material, from the beach scenes that they promised in some posters, but was never featured in the TV series at all, to how they expected us to see magical girls as the heroines of justice who fight for what's right. Well, it turns out the magical girls of Puella Magi Madoka Magica were nothing more than pawns in Kyubey's plans to prevent the heat death of the universe. Therefore, Puella Magi Madoka Magica has always been lying to us, and on top of that even more than Game Freak lying to us about the Pokemon series.

Maniacs VS Skimpy Swimwear

The summer of 2023 will be remembered as a bummer vacation, especially in Europe. Public swimming pools have become a hot topic in Germany, in which some have shut down while others seek police protection because of attacks by maniacs from Middle Eastern countries, particularly on girls in revealing swimsuits similar to the skimpy attire worn by Arabian Moon from Irem's Superior Soldiers. If these ultraconservative maniacs continue with their attacks at this rate of ferocity, expect a rivalry from Daniel 11 to reach its bloody conclusion. With all that said, we are really living in the last days of this dark age of man's rule over man...

Tentacle Crime 3

Characters getting molested by a Blooper in this comic, from top to bottom: Samus (In her two-piece swimsuit from the Metroid Zero Mission ending), Arle (PuyOlympics bikini), Peach (In her Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games swimsuit), Daisy (In her Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games swimsuit), Elena (Street Fighter 3).

Yet another comic about a Blooper molesting female characters? This Blooper is going to be in serious trouble with the police, and nobody wants to get captured by the police these days...
