Is it possible to create armor which checks every box in one go?

It's almost hilarious to look at the lack of imagination in the outfits of Mortal Kombat females. Do they ALL have to have bikinis and tiny thongs? It's all about Tee and Ay, and getting away with as much (or as little!) as possible, to the point where the next step is probably using three one-pound coins and some glue to dress them. In comparison a lot more thought goes into male design. Even Sonya Blade has become increasingly scantily clad and she's meant to be a Special Agent, not one of Shao Khan's whores.
Did I say hilarious? I meant depressing.

I would like to provide you with that Mortal Kombat females, starting with 'Mortal Kombat X' in 2015, have started wearing more conservative attire. This is due to NetherRealm Studios decision for their games This change even applies to Sareena and Mileena, both who wore revealing before (Fun fact: Sareen's first appearance made Mileena loom conservative). Go to the Mortal Kombat Wike and type any female Character's name with "/Gallery" immediately after (no spaces). The female characters that support my evidence are: Kitana, Mileena, Sonya Blade, Cassie Cage, Jacqui Briggs Frost, Sareena, Skarlet, Jade, Tanya. Cetrion and Kronika make their debut in 'Mortal Kombat 11' in 2019.

Have you not seen there alternate costumes, or their leotards from MK3?

I'd argue that sharp ornamental pieces are not unique to bikini armor, most fantasy armorers use it

So is lack of helmet.
Not all squares on this bingo are supposed to be exclusive to bikini armor, but their absurdity and impracticality is always more prominent on a scantily clad lady than reasonably armored dude.
And the square you're referring to says specifically "Sharp ornamental edges that can pierce skin.", as in the wearer's skin. We're not talking about any ridiculously pointy armor (like, say, Sauron's in the movies), we're talking about "armor" that's spiky and shows a lot of bare flesh vulnerable to those spikes.

Whats wrong with boobplate ?

It directs any incoming blows towards the center of the chest

Scrap-Lord In reply to dsfisher [2016-08-22 21:01:19 +0000 UTC]
"any" is a bit of a stretch since boob plate is round so has the same chance of glancing off to the side as it is to the chest.
unless you're aiming vertically right between her tits its about as much of a problem as on any chestpiece

dsfisher In reply to Scrap-Lord [2016-08-22 21:55:53 +0000 UTC]
No, other chest plate designs help avoid this, but boob plate not only increases the odds of an enemy hit, but also makes the armor more likely to be pierced

I know how armor looks like, and if you want to frank. you can say the same thing about the belly fold on the second example you've given me.
By no means I disagree with you.
But when it comes to fictional "female" armor I'd rather be covered entirely in bookplates over, the standard issue greves pauldrons and metal bikini.

Yes but boobplate is still far, far inferior to quote unquote normal armor

Having 'fashionable' armory for women seems to be unrealistic
like, thongs, underboob and more skin/skimpy can be vulnerable for battle. If you see a character who made a BINGO there, 101% she wouldn't survive but if she did, it's probably her powers or complete luck
tbh, for how many characters I have seen with skimpy armor would made a lot of BINGOs

for me when comes to male armour
you know how bulky and big they are that I don't even know how they managed to carry it all throughout the adventure. SO that's kinda bit of the downside and also hOW do they even take them off or put it in again

I may have to make one as a joke, Just you know to because I think it'd be kinda of a funny comparison.

Since you said it, I find it hilarious too
But anyway, they have downsides in both sides :/

No. Male armor doesn't have such problems (or any comparable ones).

hehe ... I remember how to put on the main character fanfic armor bikini I had to write more than one page studies and follow them throughout history until the end of the story.
you have great closing arguments probably 90% of the opposite side of the argument. Nice when someone so interested in the topic of women's armor.
and yet armor bikini may be justified. Rare but can.
Thanks for a fun table)

A stupid costume design trope when the lower part of boobs is not held or covered by anything, but the boobs do not dangle and there are no nip slips.
TL;DR: Violation of boob physics.
You can look up explanations and breakdown for every square here on tumblr
