Luke fon Fabre, Tales of the Abyss--</em><br /><img src="http://valiantknife.org/alex/fashion%21/luke.jpg" alt="" /><br /><br />This one is pretty low-key, but it's a prime example of just <em>how</em> RPG outfits usually go stupid. Something about the snowboard pants, the ridiculous hair, and the needless male midriff baring are just a few ways this outfit says DO NOT PASS GO, DO NOT COLLECT 200 DOLARS. Then, later on, when SPOILERS: Luke cuts his hair for CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT, it reveals an unfortunate logo on the back of his shirt that the player has to stare at for the rest of the sixty hour game. Awkward.<br /><br /><em>4. The Entire Cast of Final Fantasy IV, As Drawn By Nintendo Power</em> This isn't exactly canon, but <a href="http://spoonybard.org/fanlisting/media.php?nintendo">COME ON</a>. Who can resist the stylings of <a href="http://spoonybard.org/fanlisting/nintendo/kain.jpg">ARMOR SWIMSUIT KAIN</a>??<br /><br />Also, this is an appropriate time to point out that Cecil is probably not wearing any pants:<br /><img src="http://valiantknife.org/cecil/images/cecilnopants.gif" alt="" /><br /><br /><em>3. Nash Latkje, Suikogaiden</em> Nash, I love you, but lavender is not stealthy nor particularly functional.<br /><br /><img src="http://valiantknife.org/alex/fashion%21/nash.gif" alt="" /><br /><br />There are about fifteen different random buckles, a fastener the in the shape of a donut, and leggings that resemble kneesocks. Then tops <em>that</em> off with his special brand of overcoat-slash-dress and his strange, strange rectangular shoes.<br /><br /><em>2. Sion, The Bouncer</em> We all knew that Nomura had to rear his primary-colored multizippered head <em>sometime</em>.<br /><br /><img src="http://valiantknife.org/alex/fashion%21/sion.gif" alt="" /><br /><br />It has all the horrible details we've come to...appreciate Nomura for, the garish colorscheme, the nonsensical chokers and huge silver pendants. I also like the billowy shorts layered over the mini-leggings. <em>Classy</em>. Also of note: more jangly bits than you can shake an overlarge fighting implement at.<br /><br />1. <em>Ashley Riot, Vagrant Story</em> Really, who else could it have been? Assless battleshorts. <em>Assless battleshorts</em>.<br /><br /><img src="http://valiantknife.org/alex/fashion%21/ashley.gif" alt="" /><br /><br />It amazes me that to this day I am the only person on livejournal interested in Ashley Riot's hair. It seems there's at least enough material for a college minor there. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:fringe:112595 2008-06-18T06:00:04Z 2008-06-18T06:00:04Z So I almost totally forgot that this place even existed. Oh LJ you will forever keep my teenage angst behind those cute tiny locks.<br /><br />I've been thinking about posting my random thought on the videogames I've been playing and making even more lame top 5 lists and posting them here? Why?! BECAUSE I CAN.
