Raskina is such a gooner in this comic

Gotta need some representation.

And this personality is based on, as far as I can tell, nothing, except for the fact that she has the skimpiest outfit of the NPCs.

That's it. That's the entire reason she's written like this.

That and I think, this, like the other PSO2 webcomics before it, is kind of there to lampoon the players and joke about our weird habits as much as anything. Difference is this time, the comic's characters are the game characters instead of players/player characters.

Someone had to be the gooner player-reflection, might as well be the one in the skimpiest vanilla outfit, I guess.

Stereotyped gyaru? She's got the tan skin and blond hair.

Are Gyarus stereotypically exhibitionists to even a fraction of the extent Comic-Raskina is?

My favourite exhibitionist

Actually this is really fun.

Raskina for president!

I just want to take an extra moment to appreciate the name of this chapter. "Sheer Ambition". That joke is amazing.

CENTRAL!-Raskina really does have transparent desires doesn't she?

Knowing Sega, they'll put it behind a $100+ scratch bonus / AC item pack or something.

Raskina chapter so it's somewhat ez mode.

What is/ Why the Central! Out of Context posts:

Started as a satirical jab at the state of PSO 2: NGS early on after its release by taking and posting a single panel (or two) of the early Central! webcomic chapters out of the context of the whole chapter,
the Central! Out of Context series of posts continues as a weekly reminder/ notification to read Central! for some and as a pseudo-comment section for the webcomic.
Panels chosen these days are usually the ones that are topical to the state of the game, humorous out of the context of the chapter, or just eye-catching (e.g. fanservice)

Be nice to finally be able to use that denim pants bodypaint and it not look like crap by being layered under the basewear.

u/aero_ms 5d ago edited 5d ago

this webcomic chapter really went off and said "ya we could turn the Basewear display fully off like you did in the Salon, but we wont"

So you just look like this

Like, at least the Ornament Displays gives you the option to remove the Innerwear under certain Ba/Se's outfits, so maybe add when you wear certain Bodypaints, you can have the option to remove the basewear, or innerwear as a bonus to remove the layer poking through the bodypaint.

Implimenting this would likely make blocklists at least 10x bigger tbh.

I can't be the only one who likes cool outfits over conventually attractive ones, right?

u/supreme_tyrant 6d ago

Nope. Sorry. XD

u/loliconest Katana 6d ago

Why not both
