Why couldn't they take it from scratch, and make something original?
How many busty, kimono-wearing broads do the Japanese have to see before they get tired already?!
(Answer: they never get tired.)

@[ZTF]Sweep the Leg, Ryu!: No, you misunderstand me, my friend. I'm not talking about the sexiness level, I'm talking about the originality level. Risque is fine and dandy, I'm all for that. I'm just not all for recycled designs we've seen in anime over and over and over again.
Example of original and sexy: Sheva's Tribal.

There's only so many outfits that can be considered sexy before you run out of options and start overlapping.

Fix'd. Ah, the good works I do.
Also? Morphine rocks. Speaking as someone who recently broke his leg.

what if shes a native american and shes dressed up like a native american with the frayed animal skins and feathers? Is that racist?
What about a british chick wearing a victorian styled dress?
is having an arabic woman wearing a mask and long robe racist too?

Sigh... when will people understand that its only Racist if you see it as racist.
Giving Sheva a tribal costume was not racist. Especially when the 'Sheva Only' weapon was a bow. And I'm glad they decided to not throw her into Robin Hood garb.
They put goddamn Chris in Safari gear. He looks like a tool anglo saxon german bush hunter. Racist? No.
Would you rather have dressed Sheva in some rags? Maybe a business suit would have made more sense. Or perhaps a monks robe. Would you have wanted to throw her in any of these unless for the retarded factor? Probably not. Hell, she got a 'Clubbin' costume that goes quite well hand in hand with Chris' goober one, except Sheva in Clubbin kinda gives me a Sin City vibe which is pretty sweet.
But the tribal costume... cmon. As a white guy, if I wanted to try to hide in the trees (and had any skill to do so) I certainly wouldn't be wearing a bright orange jumpsuit. I'd be wearing tribal gear to keep cool with little to no clothes and war paint if I was going native.
Maybe you didn't notice that one of the two primary bad guys in the game, Excella, had the same skin colour as Sheva and ran the entire African division of TriCell, while wearing a white dress sort of thing.
Gods. You're just as bad as the lady trying to say Castle Crashers was a bunch of 'White' knights slaughtering hundreds of 'Coloured' bad people.

I'm glad somebody other than me went and asked that. I had no clue what a damn Prinny was until a few weeks ago when I was in Japan.

We were all waiting for you to show up, D00D.
And I was all WTF @ Fahey's statement too. I'll bet he doesn't have nearly as much Prinny stuff as you. Not to mention we all think of you when we see one.
