Liz, stick with focus on your original agenda... THERE you could've make a point for yourself. With this, it's just over analyzing that looks silly and out of place...

In Japanese animation and art the eyes are the focus of all expression and ranges of emotion. Occluding the eyes serves to make a point that the character has a hidden agenda or ulterior motives or maybe a deeper layer of personality. It's the same with the "shadows that cover the eyes" thing they do.

Exposing partially the breasts of a female, SPECIALLY in a V cut style is also an stylistic choice as it's usually used (or tried to be used) as a manner to display the overpowering of a female character over others... usually with ill intent, trying to display that a woman's raw power can be displayed through her sexuality as much like a man's power would be displayed by his brutality... a good example of this for those who watch anime is Katejina from Gundam V... this usually follows the "Short Hair turned Long" deal, as it shows a Woman repressed and contained, unrestrained herself for better or worst (that's when the long hair shows up), it's a combination of the Dark Side in woman form with the Vulnerable side in woman form...




It's waaaaaaaaaaaay more common than you seem to think, and YES it can be used with Tittilation for advertising (i think i don't need to post the Soul Calibur poster here...) but it's not Objectifying in the same way you wanna use it. It's an artistic choice that tries to make a statement about the character in the game...

But how can i know that for a game that isn't out yet? Well, it's just my own knowledge of anime tropes (which i don't claim to be absolute... mind you) and then i jump over to Wikipedia and here is what we see...

Quote:
Nemissa (?????)

A female devil that suffers from amnesia. She is characterised by her flashy silver hair, and is the protagonist's partner, key to the work the group is doing. Because she has no physical body herself, she inhabits Hitomi's body. The instant Nemissa's soul takes control Hitomi's hair turns silver, and returns to its natural black once Hitomi is back in control. Nemissa is selfish at first, but through getting to know others she begins to care for other people, and eventually learns to know pain and emotions.

Nemissa's attributes are decided by how the player answers Hitomi's questions at the beginning of the game.
Well fuck my balls isn't that just on par with what i just described... Nemissa is the character in the cover BTW...

With that said... I'm off to cookies and coffee... AWAY!
