I believe it, comic book costumes for the women characters may only come close, but not exceed fantasy online game gear. But, I will admit some games are better about it than others.
do we still have to point out the spelling errors in the fillers? cause Red misspelled the word stomach at the level 20 panel.
I mean, you don’t HAVE to point them. But I’m sorry I missed it. It’s fixed now.
So what armor is level 100? A transparent bikini?
We can only hope!
Ehh… We all know it’s all about the fan-service and sexual appeal rather than the practical or magical stats with equipment concepts like that. Though theoretically, maybe your characters’ in-game stats are utterly jacked by this point (LV 80s) that you’re near invincible to get away with wearing next to nothing for armour.
Seen it for Xenoblade Chronicles.
Probably a wisp of strategically-placed fog.
Strategically placed wisps of vapor. And there’s a rumor on gamer Reddit that if you move her fast enough, the little clouds can’t keep up, and you get to see stuff.
People underestimate how good bikini armor actually is.
The mere fact a single squared inch of material can be used as armor means the material is god level knowledge.
It of course generates a flexible force field of mixed and alternating properties all around the subject to protect them of much more damage than a mere piece of forged metal could.
And did I mention the flexibility the user gains not having a rigid piece of heavy material hanging from their body???
That, and ofc the female body is so good to see XD
Yes. Level 1 characters need to wear armor where all the protection is from material. On higher level, characters get progressively more magical armor up to the point when the protection of material is negligible and all the protection comes from magic. For that, how much skin is covered is irrelevant. In fact, if the wizard who made the armor didn’t deliberately put “turn off when worn over or under other clothes” function in, you could just have it in pocket. Or you can have the same magic in earring.
Besides, spidersilk is better material for armor than kevlar, not speaking about steel. Only … it needs to be in multiple layers like kevlar.
Unfortunately, spider silk is not flame-resistant like steel and kevlar are.
Spider silk is very fire resistant and self-extinguishing. Cobwebs only tend to be fire hazards because they trap flammable dust.
Nope, it burns great; I’ve tried it on fresh webs. According to Wikipedia, it can only handle up to about 220 degrees.
So, level 81 goddess armor prevents penetration “only” by sharp metal things.
The more exposed female flesh, the greater the distraction factor and therefore the greater negative to-hit modifier. This applies to all opponents because males endure great discomfort, and females are subject to greater envious rage.
See Modesty Blaise and “The Nailer”.
What, did Hideo Kojima design that last armor?
Actually, he couldn’t have. Too much material for him to put on the female form.
Grrl Power (webcomic) has an example of how bikini armor COULD work.

Level 81 armor is when Red has to infiltrate the Harem room in the palace and belly dance for the sheik.
It almost makes sense – I mean, why would a god ever need any actual physical protection?
I assumed “divine armors” are the ones deities grant to their higher champions.
“Goddess” armor would presumably be infused with divine power for protection, anyway. Once you get above Adamantium armor, the additional protection is magical rather than material, as HKMaly mentioned.
In Panel 3, it looks like Tiffany really missed with the lipstick – it wound up between her eyes! LOL !
That’s blush.
(Last panel) I don’t mean the pink on her cheeks – I mean the bright red vertical streak between her eyes.
It’s in almost the right place for eye shadow, but I’ve never seen red eye shadow before.
Not a big deal, I just thought it was funny. Like the makeup artist goofed.
I actually like the Nightshade costume; I’ll have to think about making one of those. With real metal under the fabric, of course.
Clearly the typical “Bikini Armor” of female barbarians projects a magical force field to provide protection in the “Exposed” areas against high speed war mallet swings and sword thrusts. Clearly it’s one of those “The slow blade penetrates the shield” situations. This allows for Seduction based skills to work, while protecting against arrows, big hammers and swords.
