I meant to include "I don't care." in that one part of my post but I think I lost that part of my message when I was condensing it to get around the text limit on Steam. Sorry about that. In the context of my post, I feel like that part accidentally came off as me calling you a pervert even though as I mentioned in my previous post, there are nonsexual reasons that could've made it into the portrait considering using other fan art as a reference is a common thing.
So once again, I apologize for my rudeness, I was just very taken back by that statement, plus its midnight where I am so being slightly tired doesnt help much, haha.
I'm also just kind of appalled at the statement that a midriff is inherently sexual though, her portrait aside. Women can wear a tank top or whatever if they really want to without it being an attempt to gain sex appeal. You're saying Touhou fans admit it is a sexually driven decision to depict her like that, but I'm pretty sure I could ask just as many people about it and they would say it isn't, so no disrespect to you, but I'm not sure if that statement has too much validity behind it.
If you want some instances of "canon" depictions where she could have a midriff though, her TH18 portrait might have one (though it could also be an undershirt of some kind), but I'm almost certain she at least has a little belly showing in her TH17.5 portrait.
Though, it was unfair of me to say it was drawn that way for sexual reasons since it's possible you just asked Regina to draw Reimu, she looked it up, & she found fanart of her with a big midriff & she based her work off of that. Probably an easy mistake to make considering it's about as overdone as giving Sans a fur coat.
I don't know why you're so defensive about something you didn't draw. It's not like I insulted you or tried to make you change it. I just explained why it's strangely unfitting.
I even said it's a 10/10 mod otherwise. The portrait doesn't ruin it for me. It just bugs me when I see it because of the midriff & because the character herself bears no resemblance to Reimu so the combination looks like a bad cosplay. I still use her but I end my videos slightly earlier than I used to so the portrait won't show up.
Regina Reforged is a good artist. I've seen other characters & portraits by her. But this specific picture is bad for this specific mod. If you really thought I was wrong, you would've just said something like "Yeah, but I like it."
@NoArms: What?
It just seems like an attempt at sex appeal, which just makes Reimu seem like a porn character or this seem like a porn mod if you haven't played played Touhou or haven't play this mod. Which is a shame because she's not, it's not, & the fandom has a bad tendency to make Touhou seem like porn with their misrepresentations of the characters.
Not that a midriff is super lewd but when it's so out of place, it stands out in a bad way & it makes it super obvious why it's there. It's like if a character known for wearing huge boots was barefoot for no reason. We'd all know why & it would be weird.
10/10 mod otherwise.
Down B will explode a bit more if you hit it with yin-yang though!
