#carmys attraction is absolutely 1 sided at this point

[addieyapsalot]

I want Syd to tell Carmy about the offer and Carmy to be like "don't go!" and syd says "why? what reason do I have to stay carm, because things look real fucking bleak right now." and he says "because I love you chef" and she gets in his face and very quietly says "go fuck yourself chef" and leaves

Wow the bullshit just keeps coming today.

Okay, putting aside the very blatant oversexualization of yet another female character-

Sorry Dudeblade, I can’t hear you over all the oversexualized MEN.

All I see is gender equality considering these buckos.

and the fact that she’s clearly Latina-Coded which makes it all the more awful

You know the rules: ‘coded’ means ‘I’m projecting.’

How racist Dudeblade.

there are so many design flaws that even a guy who isn’t a design expert (like myself) can point out.

Spoiler alert: he’s bitching about practicality in a show that takes inspiration from Gurren Lagann and Blazblue.

For starters: The chain-mail. As everyone in the rwde tag has pointed out: That’s impractical in a desert setting. Even if we have to have the chain-mail, why have it only over the breasts?- How about the midriff?- The stomach is also a vulnerable point on the body, and could use added protection as well. These writers have access to google, so couldn’t they have looked up what combat wear is worn in the desert? Tunics are a thing. Those are typically made to be airy enough to let sweat out to avoid overheating. could have added some chain-mail to a tunic. Alternatively, another idea could be a combat vest. Hell, if there absolutely has to be sexualization, they could make said vest form-fitting and they wouldn’t have to overdo it.

Weiss goes into battle in high heels and fucking dance dresses.

Blake is dressed as a genderbent Seto Kaiba.

Ruby’s current design is like old fashioned bar wenches.

And Yang’s is an adventure’s outfit.

And each of these are MORE practical and LESS sexual than their Volume 1-3 designs (except Ruby) were Blake’s chest area was designed by a white top, which with the black bottom and black hair, means your eyes are drawn to the chest area. Not to mention how hard it has to be to wear something like that. Weiss wore a dress that had a red undershirt near her breasts, which with the white draws your attention there, And Yang’s-

...speaks for itself.

Seriously, this shit of impracticality to look good has been around since the very beginning. You want to bitch? Either get a time machine or a shovel.

Next up: The goggles on top of her head. Good choice. I like it. Keeps sand out of her eyes, very practical. 

That’s it? Really?

I thought you could explain stuff Dudeblade.

Next: The hair. I like redheads, and they are aesthetically pleasing. But all that sand around her can’t be good for her hair. It would easily be filled with sand (Though her semblance could make quick work of it). But that doesn’t change the fact that having that much hair in the desert would cause someone to overheat.

And long hair would make it easier to grap something and hold an opponent in place.

Yet two of main heroines have long hair.

Next: Skin tone. “Dark skin.” If that’s dark skin, then Yang’s hair is orange. This isn’t how this works. If she had a shawl or some other covering, then the skin would make sense. But from what is being seen here, she just looks like someone with a tan.

Yeah the fact that it looks like a tan comes into play later.

I’ll give props for a unique design, but this just screams “This is sexy! ADMIRE IT!” There’s no practicality in this, and I’m flat-out convinced that this was made to get your women and girls to cosplay this. Whatever perv decided this was okay to put on what can be assumed to be a woman in her early twenties at most should be fired.

This woman is FAR more sexualized (and in fact, has NUMEROUS fetishes in her design) than the one designed above.

This was designed by a WOMAN, Dudeblade. Her image of a modern day witch with power and control.

Just because it looks sexy doesn’t mean ‘muh male gaze.’ Believe or not, women like men like to look attractive as a whole.

All you basically did was bitch about practicality in a show that never gave a shit about practicality, made by a man who never thought of practicality outside of cosplay and inspired by pieces of media where practicality was the last thing in mind.

And just to prove how much of a failure you are: I’m going to break down Carmie’s design.

First off, her having a tan is not just there because she lives in the desert. It’s meant to convey her confident, sporty attitude. Similar to why Sun has a tan as well. This is because we mentally associate tanned skin with athletic ability and athletic ability with confidence due to how confident athletes are.

Red hair? Meant to denote confidence or assurance, similar to why Yang’s hair is yellow. Both convey to the audience that these people are charsmatic and confident by making them more eye drawing.

Yellow eyes? Good middle ground between the tanned skin and the bright auburn, making the overall face easy to look at.

Red scarf? Compliments her eyes and hair alongside denouting an adventerous side to her.

Blue top? A bit of cool color to make her middle part stand out along with invoking a blue jean top, usually worn by adventurous people.

White Cloak? Probablt to go with the bright metal chainmail as well as give her a bit of a badass edge.

Black tattoo? Draws attention to the hip she’s jutting out, give a fashionable asymmetry to her so it make her stand out more as well as make you notice the scabbard that’s empty, fitting with the drawn dagger,

Blaxk leggings? Basic fanservice detail, used to denote sexual confidence and assurance.

See what the design is getting at now Dudeblade? It’s not just “FAP MATERIAL!”, she’s specifically designed to look like a confident, alluring adventerer/fighter, which makes sense given how openly confident and friendly she is in the book along with Coco’s attraction to her. Yeah she does look sexy but that’s because people are attracted to confident people in general. Fuck, that’s why so many people fell for Coco because her design, voice and personality exuded a sense of fashionable confidence.

You didn’t discuss this at all. Nor how her chainmail makes her top half look cluttered nor how her red shorts just blend into her tanned skin, exasperated by her black leggings. You didn’t understand the design AT ALL.

It’s a sad day when the so called ‘RWBY fanboy’ is doing your job better than you. you Dobson clone reject.
