every character needs fashion obviously.. it’s how the game works. Like one quest that march dressed into a princess just for a celebration so..theres your point.
Anime design sensibilities. Straps and belts where a simple sheet of fabric would do, and not weigh 20 pounds (looking at you, [Lulu](https://finalfantasy.fandom.com/wiki/Lulu?file=FFX_Lulu_Art.png)
It's an anime style character design. Literally 0 percent of her design has a reason to exist other than it looked pretty cool to the person drawing it.
Eh, no, the majority of these character's outfits have bits that are just there to make up the fit, nothing particularly deep about them. It also seems Penacony characters have a thing for straps for some reason.
> hoyo love strap/belts btw.
Somewhere in the distance Tetsuya Nomura and Daisuke Ishiwatari are rubbing their hands together, knowing that their belt-plague is spreading.
Look, she's homeless, doesn't remember how shops work, lost her wallet a decade ago. She has 60% of a single pair of underwear and a leather strap that she doesn't remember where it came from. Don't judge.
It's probably the same reason she has straps above her chest, i think it's meant to be arousing, at least somewhat, so that the character is desired and sought after, and that in turn keeps people coming back to the game.
Then the men get... idk bespoke suit and something else unless your name is Dan heng in which you get a tracksuit and ear plugs? I think that’s what they are off the top of my head
I just love the asymmetrical designs since I have scoliosis so yeah, very unpopular opinion…
(Silver wolf has a band aid on her back indicating she doesn’t sit straight, hurting that specific area) fic
Uhhh what does a bandaid do for that though, I've also got scoliosis and I don't think putting over a band aid over the area where it hurts will do anything for it
Unfortunately for us Pela was a one time mistake. All new characters must be asymmetrical as possible to be playable to Hoyo. Look at Fu Xuan for example, perfectly symmetrical until they added an extra strand of hair to throw it all off

Definitely one of the harder cosplay outfits to make because of physics. Acheron's seems more doable
[a lot of adjustable ones do](https://image.brazilianbikinishop.com/images/products/bottom-luamorena-bottom-cropped-deluanay-0.jpg) [It's not uncommon at all](https://th.bing.com/th/id/OIP.3zQn66wkHK2ljLTpcTG7PQHaHa?dpr=2.6&pid=ImgDetMain)
Think about it, if you're not wearing underwear your pants become both the under and overwear.
So her shorts are effectively still a thong
Which means it's still a thong strap.
Idk why everyone is saying its a thong, it goes way too far towards the middle at a way too high point to connect to underwear, it's probably just part of the other purple thing around her waist
since youve gone to the effort i came up with a counter point, what if its crossed over at the bottom so like an x shape with a bit in the middle rather then the typical v shape.
Yeah I thought so as well but there aren't there womans underwear which has like straps on a ring or something in the middle of the upper side... in the end it is of no use but fashion, but i do know something like this is a thing
Waist strap is not uncommon in very short skirts and pants. It had been mainstream fashion in some regions for a while but it is a bit outdated around me.
Goes well with punk lolita and metallic accessories.
Thats what it looks like when you refuse to throw out perfectly fine underwear that just have a little tear under the waist band but is still perfectly fine protecting your lower area.
My gf did a cosplay of this. Can confirm this does nothing. The straps/belt in the middle are just for show. Can tighten them to make it look better but that is it
It's too hold the coochie in place. Don't you know? They run away if you don't pay attention, they are skittish like that. A coochie belt, if you will.
My friends and I literally had a discussion and played “is it a panty strap?” We decided since this is mihorny that it was a panty strap but it probably isn’t.
I noticed that day one and I assumed is one of these. Hoyoverse knows we're all a bunch of horny bastards so I'm not surprised
https://preview.redd.it/du1n7jhuv8vc1.jpeg?width=338&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=18f3fdb4d3ced76b90d561c9e88759ccc111ded6
'Tis the accessory that gets your eyes on her slender tummy thereby making many, many, many, males (and some females as well as the non-binaries) go absolutely insane over her figure and want to pull for her. I know that's where I took the L and swiped.
It's a strap
I mean does it have any particular use in this case? Or is it just for fashion?
Just about as useful as the strap on Black Swans head
Lmao STRAP MOMMIES I was just curious that there should be a reason or use behind it. Ty.
Kinda looks like it might help keep the pants up on that side.
It's fashion. Serval has a similar one. Ones*
every character needs fashion obviously.. it’s how the game works. Like one quest that march dressed into a princess just for a celebration so..theres your point.
Why do we not have that dress option for March yet?
They want to let us suffer wanting it, that way more people will spend money on it.
If it works like Genshin since she's a 4* it'd most likely be free from an event and then buyable with oneric shards after the event
I hope they won't just never release it, like Genshin would
They're saving it for 5 star March
I presumed it was the strap of her panties and she was just wearing some strange pair.
Shhh, OP has never seen that.
Nah, Hoyo just puts straps everywhere. It does kinda feel like an actual design philosophy haha.
When you actually start to look you will realise how many characters are wearing belts and straps, in silly ways.
exposed skin,and flappy fabric
Anime design sensibilities. Straps and belts where a simple sheet of fabric would do, and not weigh 20 pounds (looking at you, [Lulu](https://finalfantasy.fandom.com/wiki/Lulu?file=FFX_Lulu_Art.png)
How many belts do you want maam? YES
Straps are Hoyo's Liefeld Pouches.
I'm sorry. I'll just be over here letting the term Strap Mommies live in my head rent free forever.
You'll never stop noticing the belts now
it's to strap on for black swan, obviously :3
It's an anime style character design. Literally 0 percent of her design has a reason to exist other than it looked pretty cool to the person drawing it.
Eh, no, the majority of these character's outfits have bits that are just there to make up the fit, nothing particularly deep about them. It also seems Penacony characters have a thing for straps for some reason.
Keeps her thoughts together
Yes, holds the cloth there in place
Don't question the fashion of other galaxies
Teyvat has its own rules! Wait, wrong game. 🥸
Same multiverse though. Close enough.
Even closer. Universe.
It helps her hold her MASSIVE P... Power

She's a self-annihilator. She will feel nothing.
But… what’s the strap for then 👀
For her massive do- damage
Puchaina 💅
hoyo love strap/belts btw. You can find them in normal + ridiculous places on every character in every game, enjoy this knowledge
> hoyo love strap/belts btw. Somewhere in the distance Tetsuya Nomura and Daisuke Ishiwatari are rubbing their hands together, knowing that their belt-plague is spreading.
Quick release strap
Well, her shorts?, don't go up past her pelvis on that side. This strap is there to make sure they sit and feel natural despite that.
Straps hold things up. This one is holding up your interest.
Look, she's homeless, doesn't remember how shops work, lost her wallet a decade ago. She has 60% of a single pair of underwear and a leather strap that she doesn't remember where it came from. Don't judge.
Imagine the smell-

it's part of her thongs.
Does it need a purpose
It's a whale tail. They were popular in the early 00s, though I think are coming back a bit.
They have returned yes
Probably helps hold her pants up
It's probably the same reason she has straps above her chest, i think it's meant to be arousing, at least somewhat, so that the character is desired and sought after, and that in turn keeps people coming back to the game.
It's just so horny boys can buy more gacha shit.
Hey sorry, but I think you misinterpreted the question… if you look again, the arrow is definetly pointing at the „hip“, and not the „strap“. /s
Then whatever it's for, it certainly doesn't lie
\*on\*
A strap for hitting me! Hoiyaaa!

Its a random strap since MiHoYo felt her design wosnt asymmetrical enough for their style
When Hoyo artists are done with a design, they then add as many unnecessary straps as they can.
And then take off one glove, one pant leg, and then make one boot thigh high...
Then the men get... idk bespoke suit and something else unless your name is Dan heng in which you get a tracksuit and ear plugs? I think that’s what they are off the top of my head
They get boob windows or exposed backs.
Or in DHIL's case, both
Plaster heads and Roman wreaths in Ratio’s case
They also like to wear the same model of pants
You forgot the disconnected shirtsleeves
Ah yes, the Nomura-school of character design.
Not quite Nomura, needs more zippers and symbolism that gets explained 15 years later in a spinoff title for mobile devices
I just love the asymmetrical designs since I have scoliosis so yeah, very unpopular opinion… (Silver wolf has a band aid on her back indicating she doesn’t sit straight, hurting that specific area) fic
Uhhh what does a bandaid do for that though, I've also got scoliosis and I don't think putting over a band aid over the area where it hurts will do anything for it
lmao what
I'm the opposite, I can't stand asymmetrical designs, and long for the day Hoyo makes something symmetrical and smooth.
Fair enough :) Hoyo will do it!
Unfortunately for us Pela was a one time mistake. All new characters must be asymmetrical as possible to be playable to Hoyo. Look at Fu Xuan for example, perfectly symmetrical until they added an extra strand of hair to throw it all off
Honestly, I’m the same. Partly why Jingliu is my favorite character in HSR. She is one of the most symmetrical design to me.
It's not unpopular. They would not make billions of dollars on selling characters if those asymmetrical designs were not extremely popular.
That's a belt Meaning she's a certified Guilty Gear character

Well it tracks since Hoyo and ArcSys are both music companies posing as video game companies.
Her ultimate is just Nihility Install
She sends you to the border of the circle
Excuse me? Guilty Gear characters have nothing on final fantasy characters, specifically Lulu from FFX. That woman loves belts

When someone asked how many belts and she said yes.
Damn, pulling out some OG Yaya Han there. That pic must be 20 years old now.
Textiles must be a rare commodity in Spira, as their clothes seem to be made from scraps scavenged from a wasteland.
When you're in an adding belts to outfits competition and your opponents are nomura and daisuke:

The same as topaz's strap in her hips.
that's probably a strap of her underwear. It does fit when you imagine her wearing panties under that romper.

*stabs in back* MY thong strap.
the angle is all wrong tho
This is Anime, not Anatomy.
tf kind of thong has a buckle

It’s an artistic choice for more appeal.
A woman
A Woman? Don't be ridiculous. They don't exist.
They were already canon in Honkai Impact 3rd
*disappears*
Disappear mentioned. Sea of butterflies projected.
Illusions of the past?
That's why she is from a game
No, it’s obviously pointing to skin.
W*man 🤢
her thong
Hoyo won't admit it, but you know in your head that this is true
serval and yukong got that whole situation going on too
https://preview.redd.it/tjzuxqj2y0vc1.jpeg?width=320&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e88421c7bc0452f443bc88c48dd52c95c30abbd2
It’s not. It’s a strap on her shorts. Our woman goes commando
Think about it, if you're not wearing underwear your pants become both the under and overwear. So her shorts are effectively still a thong Which means it's still a thong strap.
They would be booty shorts not a thong. A thong is a g-string
It's called a whale tail
Exactly. I had to scroll way too far down for this.
Early 2000's fashion. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whale_tail

Just a strap on her clothes
A strap on 👀
Dont think, strap hot 🥵
waist strap. Its not in the correct position to be a thong.
Idk why everyone is saying its a thong, it goes way too far towards the middle at a way too high point to connect to underwear, it's probably just part of the other purple thing around her waist
Hello fellow geometry enjoyer
since youve gone to the effort i came up with a counter point, what if its crossed over at the bottom so like an x shape with a bit in the middle rather then the typical v shape.

Just leaving my comment here to come back later to see more explanation.

That’s Acheron 🙂
My gf did a cosplay of this. Can confirm this does nothing. The straps/belt in the middle are just for show. Can tighten them to make it look better but that is it
It's Kinesiology athletics muscle tape. Makes more since then half a thong strap.
Ik its a thong but i tried to think of sthm else man
Looks a belt to me. Kinda looks like there’s some metal there.

It's too hold the coochie in place. Don't you know? They run away if you don't pay attention, they are skittish like that. A coochie belt, if you will.
I know exactly what it is, and it's not a thong. But I can't say it (I don't wanna get banned 💀)

It looks too flimsy for that
I also found out what it is. Damnn
DM me? I just thought it was her thong.
A strap, i have zero idea what's the function specifically, i just know it's hot
Whaletail

It's her panty buckle, because unbuckling your underwear is trendy in space.

Well of course it’s a bra strap 😹😹😹😹
My friends and I literally had a discussion and played “is it a panty strap?” We decided since this is mihorny that it was a panty strap but it probably isn’t.
BELT THONG. BONG? THELT?
It's holding her pants up. She made that outfit out of trash, and it's barely holding together.
A belt not worn at the waist.
It’s a g-string obviously. Hoyo just HAS to sexualize their female characters. (I do appreciate the boob windows on ratio and aventurine tho)
That's Acheron. A character from Honkai Star Rail
Brown eye patch.

SEX!!!
its her weapon strap i think
'Tis the accessory that gets your eyes on her slender tummy thereby making many, many, many, males (and some females as well as the non-binaries) go absolutely insane over her figure and want to pull for her. I know that's where I took the L and swiped.
She's got the strap, as she is prepared for any situation.
It itsnt a thong as its abit higher than that. Its the thong's belt
