I might be more inclined to buy it if the translation of the french on the package wasn't roughly 'smell of the bathroom'. I know we are talking lady bathroom here, but still Confused

Smell like a fourteen year old girl destined to hook up with a college aged man!

Jailbait, by Calvin Klein.

That's the name of the game mate. Wink
So just what does a cartoon character smell like anyway?
I'm thinking maybe ink and celluloid. Laughing

She smells like tears and toast.

Well, maybe not toast anymore.

Also, always a bit weird reading a company like Bandai (etc.) and "cosmetic line" in the same sentence, then again Square-Enix also apparently must have one with that Noctis one and that game's not even out yet LOL.

I thought the newer comments in this were actually a case of necroposting, but another user pointed out to me that both articles share this same thread, so I am unlocking it.

Joke away.

@Tony - lol I actually saw that they were combined, and was wondering if it would look like necroposting.

I was thinking it looked more like a bottle Mariah Carey would put out, minus the butterfly on top.

He's a High School student in the manga and Sailor Moon Crystal. There is only a 3 year age gap.

Him being in College was something invented in the original anime, just like all the other questionable decisions like making the Starlights disguise themselves PHYSICALLY as male, rather than just dressing like it like in the manga.

I always found it hypocritical when fans complained about the Starlights in the anime. They were not the first Sailor Soldiers to disguise themselves as men. In the anime, Usagi disguised herself as a male fortune teller, while in the manga used the Disguise Pen to look like a groom. There's also Minako who used her Sailor V compact to disguise herself as a guy during the Infinity story.
