How do you go from this
>>148197144
To this.
>>148197144
please appreciate how high-cut those buruma are.
>>148197156
>To this.
That's not showing the final evolution to the entirely unrecognisable Rei. At least your second example still had a similar body shape.
>>148197314
You asked for it.
UUUGGGHHHH

>>148197156

I don't know what you're complaining about, shit is hot as fuck.

Fucking degenerate.
>>148197667
Are you for fuckign real?
>>148197144
I'm still sad we didn't get more 90s Mogudan gems outside of Scrapped Princess (both anime and manga). There was also Brave Soul the RPG/VN, but that was about it.
Granted, there's something about his earlier art that I liked that was different compared to the usual.
>>148197667
low test
low energy
>>148197219
>high-cut
Where did it all go? Why are we cursed with this eternal season of low-cut? Did we do something wrong?
>>148197795
>>148197840
Sorry but I like women not pigs.
>>148198279
I don't have time to explain you in detail but in the mid-90s, having fun and being happy and healthy was no longer cool. Instead being sad and depressed and unhealthy was cool.
The body type that matches this character is a gangly undersexed bodytype
low-cut panties/bikinis make the female body look less curvy, less toned and more underage (cause looking like jailbait also became popular in the mid-90s when a bunch of music bands started parodying children's pop culture to show it was dumb to treat kids like idiots) which happened to coincide with lolicons becoming mainstream.
And also being a drug addict was cool. And drug addicts don't fit into their clothes so their underwear drop below their gaunt hips. So if you wanna look like a drug addict you can't wear high-cut.
And also bling rap became a thing around that time, and bling rap fans prefer fat butts to fit butts. and high-cut is for fit butts. So instead they promoted boyshorts and low-cut thongs to emphasize fat butts.
SO all of that shit coalesced into high fashion and movies and music, and trickled down insidiously into all of fashion.
And that's how high-cut was forgotten in favor of an aesthetic of chastened martyrdom, hippie stoner slacker slobs, glamorized child prostitution and ghetto whores.
>>148197219
This nigga gets it.
All I have to say is god bless Horizon
>>148198678
low cut literally just looks better
>>148197795
Really fucking gay.
>>148198970
>low cut literally just looks better
>>148199019
trust me i have a degree in A E S T H E T I C
>>148199073
So do I, faggot.
By the way low-cut isn't representative of late 80s aesthetics. so you can't spell it like that.
Only high-cut is A E S T H E T I C because it's typical of late 80s early 90s fashion.
>>148199129
what i meant was that my degree validates my opinion that high cut looks like shit
>>148198970
>low cut literally just looks better
Low cut is literally the bottom of the barrel made for the uninitiated to climb his way up to the top patrician taste, don't you dare call yourself an aesthete.
>>148199162
Yeah but what you mean is bullshit and your opinion is wrong.
>>148197800
Consider that everyone in the Scrapped Princess manga looked like a clone of Ayanami Rei I'm surprised it got not only an anime, but a fairly good anime (until the last episode)
>>148199209
High-cut = high standards
low-cut is "I can't even be bothered to find panties that fit my slob ass, or to pull them all the way up because I'm a lazy cunt".
Reifags are awful human beans
>>148197414
I love who he draws puffy nipples
Is this the highleg thread?
>>148199269
low-cut = cute
high-cut = slut
>>148199269
A man after my own heart.
High-cut is something only true patricians and accomplished Aesthetes can enjoy.
>>148199455
btw my evidence is this entire thread
>>148199455
I see where you're coming from and you're wrong. You're coming from post-2003 pornography.
>>148199500
pls i don't watch 3dpd
>>148199485
Your evidence has now been invalidated
Talking about getting better at drawing, then falling into "Muh artistic vision" trap.
>>148199551
are you saying the girl in your pic is cute?
>>148199550
I mean pornography in general.
>>148199485
My evidence of the contrary is /s/, /h/ and /e/.
Most of the girls on those boards are sluts and the overwhelming majority of them are low-cut.
Low-cut is slutty but not sexy.
High-cut is sexy. Sometimes slutty but only when it's worn by a huge slut.
>>148199561
He improved a lot in just one year to be fair.
Anyone have a low cut vs high cut comparison picture?
>>148199598
but it's almost impossible for high cut to be cute
and to be honest who even cares about anything other than cute?
sexy == slutty
>>148199595
You saying she isn't?
>>148197414
THICC Rei is best Rei.
>>148199637
yes
>>148199651
low-cut COULD be cute if it weren't ugly and trashy.
>>148199652
yeah
Did somebody say high cut?
>>148199682
so cute underwear literally doesn't exist in your opinion?
>>148199685
Wrong as fuck
here's more cute
>>148199759
delusional
>>148199744
All it has to do is be high-cut and lacy
>>148199736
when will this faggot stop making femdom and resume ecchi?
>>148199786
You're delusional. I'm sure you're confusing cute and moe.
Moe isn't kawaii.
>>148199595
Shirow used to draw great stuff before he fell for oiled-up skeletons meme.
>>148199827
Say what you will, it doesn't change that nothing you've posted is at all cute.
>>148199744
fundoshi are cute
>>148199857
Stop saying the opposite of the truth out of spite.
You're a sore loser.
>>148199843
look at this Ferris
>>148199901
Stop posting ugly middle-aged women and calling them cute.
>>148197144
That was at C61

>secret society m was putting doa doujins
>saigado with KoF ones
>sankaku apron and morikawa gorou had the same fucking artstyle
>cyclone and amano ameno was a thing
That was almost 15 years ago, holy shit these guys are fucking old
>>148199682
I have a midriff fetish so I feel like high cut hides too much of the tummy.
>>148198678
Basically the 80s ended and so did the color palette, the unkempt hair, the radical mindset.
The mid to late 90s is all about Nirvana, edgy video games like Doom, dressing in black, raving etc.
>>148199945
>middle-aged
They all look like they're in their early 20s but whatever.
Here's F6-402. She's four (at most).
Raita's art changed quite a bit, too.
>>148200003
I can understand that, but "midriff" is a rather arbitrary body area.
everything ITT
>>148200022
yeah as far as I can tell the late 90s never really ended.
>>148199736
That and this artist is great.
>>148200120
>so gay even your vomit is rainbow-colored
unsurprising
>>148200120
>>148199949
>holy shit these guys are fucking old
They're not even the oldest around, see Urushihara.
>>148200120
Plebs aren't welcome here.
>>148199949
I was 13 and just learning about masturbation.
How old are the connaisseurs ?
23 here
>>148200209
>Urushihara
Man it feels like that nigga has been around forever and hasn't changed. Not complaining mind you, I love his style.
>>148200441
Shame he's pretty much only doing covers nowadays.
>>148200441
Urushihara is the last living window into the late 80's/early 90's we have, we must treasure him.
Now, if he just moved his old ass and called Obari to make the ultimate OVA...
Now this is a quality thread
>>148200441
>hasn't changed
hair is now razor-sharp and lacks softness
>>148197144
>>148197156
Why is the art so much worse?
When I think about Shirow I picture a Japanese Mr Plinkett who only gets out of his chair to collect his monthly royalties he got for whoring out his IPs.
>>148199736
High cut, best cut.
>>148200593
explain the bestness of high-cut
in detail
>>148200572
Not that far off.
What's he saying about the Gits movie?
>>148200749
I dunno what he thinks of it but this lesbian scene is embarrassing. Even more of a disgrace than when Dark Horse removed two pages altogether.
>>148200642
It's kind of hard without a Prison School level epiphany, but I'll try. With hightcut, the importance I would argue isn't the exposure of skin, but rather the angle. For example something like a thong, or micro bikini doesn't have the same allure.
Low cut effectively cuts off the frame. Legs here, torso above, hips covered. High cut creates a unique frame that give you the bare hips, bare thighs, and the legs, while still covering enough the crotch to create a sense of mystery.
Another thing to consider is visual symbolism. A high cut onepiece or leotard resembles a V or an arrow pointing down.
So what I'm saying is I think Highcut is the perfect middle ground between the frumpiness of lowcut, and the extreme exposure of thongs.
Also I don't think the allure is entirely sexual, as even when highcut is worn over leggings, like in the 80s, with the legs completely covered, it still had the same allure, and shapes.
>>148200930
>a sense of mystery
I disagree. High-cut doesn't hide the crotch, it emphasizes it, it acknowledges it. Low-cut is like "what's a crotch? there's nothing between the hips and the legs." high-cut is the opposite.
>>148200642
It's the large hips sticking out of a tight piece of sexy clothing.
>>148200642
The art of the High-Cut is something that goes beyond mere explanations, it requires passion and acumen that only master craftsmen possess.
The way a High-Cut emphasize the hips helps creating a slender figure that however doesn't lose anything in terms of width either, it helps underline the whole skeletal and muscular structure of hips while also covering the pelvis in a discrete but tasteful manner, it valorizes the rear by leaving the ass exposed without being vulgar as one can taste the whole figure of the Gluteus Medius and Gluteus Maximus, and let's not forget how it creates an uninterrupted line down to the adductors.
And what if it's a string High-Cut? Then you have all the belly for you to admire, even more skin exposed and extra points for cute navels entering the paradigm of lines created by the High-Cut, and even more bonus points for a slightly sculpted set of abdominals for all the tomboy/fit lovers out there, which get extra power from the slendering forces.
Truly, if you do not understand these basic concepts and how the High-Cut can go beyond that by the virtue of full body costumes, various lingerie ornaments and combinations, eventual strategic transparencies, decorations and colour patterns, you have no hope as an Aesthete.
>>148201140
what if it's petite tomboy hips?
>>148200930
>Also I don't think the allure is entirely sexual, as even when highcut is worn over leggings, like in the 80s, with the legs completely covered, it still had the same allure, and shapes.
It was still just as sexy though, so it's a bad example.
>>148200642
To me it's something that really separates men from women. I as a man could never pull off high cut without looking like an idiot, meanwhile every normal weight woman on earth can do it. I could go on, but that's the gist of it.
>>148201201
>>148200930
It can't be about skin exposure, because even when you put a high-cut bottom over tights, it still remains sexy despite no exposure of skin.
It's more about shapes, and maybe the implication of tightness.
>>148201275
Normal women can't really pull it off, it's only for toned women with a somewhat elegant body.
>>148197414

I can't stand his vaginas. They look less like they're covered in hair and more like they haven't bathed in so long moss started growing down there.
>>148202131
Nice comparison
Sucks to be gay, huh
>>148202131
Yeah.
They look like vaginas.
>>148200642
High-cut and low-cut have difference in verticality. Simplest way to visualize them is that high-cut is vertical stripes and low-cut is horizontal stripes - except instead of wide/tall it's fat/fit.
Higher butts have already been talked about >>148198678 and it's probably the larger part of the equation. Some other things that are implied are
>no belly
fat accumulates in certain predictable areas and has certain predictable properties: like roundness. the acute angle of high-cut means that belly fat is low
>accentuates waist-hip ratio
high-cut rests on pelvic bone rather than somewhere below (which is always wider) and on most women would be pretty close to the waist width. the ideal high-cut probably starts at a waist width, which is what we see in 2D.
low-cut just adds a bad angle to the image and clutters it up.
>makes legs look longer
visually divides body into longer, slimmer pieces rather than shorter, fatter pieces.
there's probably some other reasons but i don't know how to explain them.
>>148203180
all of this is accurate
I'm compiling all this to write an autistic essay that demonstrates the superiority of high-cut
>>148203180
She would look 100x better with smaller perky breasts.
Behold, perfection!
>>148197414
Head looks too small for that body and it's not because of the perspective.
>>148203947
that babyfat belly is horrible.
>>148203947
Looks like Mao from Futabu!! without her cock.
