    Do you mean that the miniskirts are supposed to be sexy or something?

    Klee and Nahida’s skirts effectively don’t even exist - they end at the hip, with exposed undergarments.

    It’s a good thing you don’t see that as sexy on those character models, but imagine those same outfits on conventionally attractive real-world adults. If you’re suggesting that miniskirts and exposed midriffs are considered “modestly dressed” then what, exactly, would be immodest to you?

      Those were actually two of the four I checked out. That’s underwear‽ Didn’t realize that. That looks so itchy and bumpy on the skin… And that would indeed be sexualization IMO.

      But if that wasn’t exposed underwear, I really don’t see that any more sexualized than https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Duan_Qun_Miao_women_from_a_One_Hundred_Miao_Pictures_album,_pre-1912.gif, which depicts one of the traditional outfits of the Miao shortskirt people. Not saying that this is what you usually find in Asia either, but I find the third person from the left conventionally attractive and not sexualized saved for exposing the breastbones, and perhaps her midriff is a little large.

      exposed midriffs

      While checking out the four I also checked what body type the male protagonist was. He also has exposed midriffs and I never noticed that while playing as him when I did a few years ago.
