Women's clothing is also a sticking point, as virtually all of them (nearly uniformly buxom) wear tops that are cut away around their breasts, as if no one in Orvelia could figure out how to factor in extra cloth for their jackets when making them.

Just cost-cutting. It would double the price of the clothing, given the acreage of extra fabric required.

The one that killed me was Scarlet's outfit, with what appear to be suspenders across her boobs holding her corset up? Or straps holding them down so they don't waggle about during a fight? Maybe that, since the fabric covering them looked like Lycra, which is probably not all that suitable for a busty princess-swordswoman.

Had to think twice about this anime, and then I remembered how mediocre it was. For me the best thing about it was the Dark Elves, other then that...yawners...

I was enjoying King's Raid until they decided to get rid of the B plot in the most decisive way possible. To this day, if I ever think of this show I will always reach the point of "What were the creators of this show thinking?"

For me the series has been entertaining enough-granted it has it's flaws but good enough to keep me coming back week after week.

I kept up with this series for five or six episodes before finally losing interest, and I only stuck it out that long because the dark elves' revenge plot seemed at least a bit interesting. Looks like I didn't miss much.
