For some reason I didn't get the reference to Kusanagi at first, but then it became obvious. I always did find the first season of Stand Alone Complex a bit odd that way.

I really love it when Nina satirizes the more idiotic aspects of anime. The subject of today's comic is something that's been bugging me for years.

Yeah, I was glad that Kusanagi's costume was different for the second season. The first was a just a bit too... obvious.

That is the outfit chosen by the leader of Section 9, a counter-terrorist network and anti-crime unit operating in the Japanese National Public Safety Commission. And no one in the show has a problem with. In fact, they don't even notice.

Get it now?

Heh, I'll admit I didn't notice until the third panel, when Nina actually pointed it out. Then I actually looked at the cop and realized how skimpy her outfit was.

Thanks I get it now (couldn't tell if your 'get it now' was in a irritated tone or not...)
