Reply To: Clothing styles in Tenchi

So, we’ve already talked a bit about the new character designs themselves, now lets talk about their clothes!

They’re certainly very “revealing,” which is what it is, I suppose. I can like it so long as the clothes don’t lend to the characters themselves being over sexualized.

On the whole, I think Yasuda has shown a great eye for color in these getups! I particularly like the stark duo-chromatic theme for Ryoko’s outfit. Ayeka’s outfit does a good job of maintaining the elegant look of her previous wardrobe, but with a lighter and more fluid feel. That open side goes awfully far up though… 😳 . Sasami’s pink and blue dress is pretty par for the course, and the short length feels like its trying to evoke one of her Pretty Sammy getups. I really dig Washu’s lab coat! She looks like she’s ready to hit the clubs, or the labs, whichever comes first! 😆 . Finally, Mihoshi’s outfit doesn’t look terribly practical for police work, but I’m happy they kept the white cotton ball tail thing.
