Slimeknight 67 Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 A little disturbing... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Brother Jaybird 520 Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 (edited) Some mysteries are not meant to be solved. More seriously, the mizu no hagoromo is technically a robe or mantle, not a dress specifically, so the issue is a dub-induced one. There's no issue with Ruff or Melvin wearing it.

I just figured JRPGs didn't mind breaking Gender norms ....That, and I didn't think much into it at all. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

There are only so many ways you can conveniently translate "feathered garment of water" into English; they've also called this thing the water robe and the water flying clothes. I think they should go with something involving the word "plume", a word that refers both to feathers and certain behaviors of fluids in physics. Maybe even something like "plumed mantle", just for kicks. Edited November 30, 2020 by Brother Jaybird 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
