This team is quite close to where i live, it's fun to see local news like this in ANN. I just hope the teams i support never wear such ridiculous designs.

Another great example of how things that work in anime usually don't in real life.

Laughing Surely that's a copyright or trademark violation? Or did they get permission? It will certainly distract Real Madrid, or Barcalona. Or any team for that matter. What's the away kit looking like? Laughing

Skinless/anatomical clothings has existed way before SnK was created, no way there's any copyrights issues here.
They just have never been popular for obvious reasons... Laughing

This is a totally weeaboo article. This has nothing to do with AoT (or SNK, whatever you choose).

It was stupid idea of the club owners and Kappa to take a saying way to serious or too extreme.

And for trying to promote from Tercera division to Segunda B division? Not even promoting to Primera division where most people only knows teams Barcelona, Real Madrid or Athletico Madrid. It's more like a promoting stunt to get attention to a team that is just 5 years old.


News quality here has dropped.

^ Just when I had just started mentioning it yesterday, and someone decided to use the word. Reported.

Concerning the apparel, I personally think it's unique but most things just glossed through my mind any way.

I don't see what's so "horrendous" about it, looks cool to me. Definitely a step up from the muscle tights I see girls wear.

As pointed out this is an INTEREST piece. So you might want to actually pay attention next time. You might also want to watch the rude comments.

I suppose it was only a matter of time before any appearance of skinless anatomical musculature would forever be called an Attack on Titan thing.

Silly Japanese media.

Why there's a need to personally called the Japanese media as silly when all they did say is that it resembled the colossal titan's body? People get excited, so nobody can get excited any more before they are gonna be given names just because they think that particular something hugely resembled another person's piece of interest? Okay then.

Thing is, it is not of interest in a site for anime-related news. Linking a soccer kit that happens to represent human muscles to Attack on Titan goes beyond stretching - it's desperate and kind of delusional.
