Yeah, or also from the neckline down, which is also suggestive.

No need for redundancy here 
I do love that he never really answered her question -- sorry Nina, you're always the damsel in distress. |

Heh, epitomizes the greatest role of girls in action anime.
But for those less skilled in the precise fabric-slashing arts, use this method instead: fabric-eating bacteria-laced swords.

Entertaining strip as always -- insightful too. Honestly, I have never really picked up on this trend. I guess it's because fanservice is so deeply ingrained into anime that some fans don't even notice things like this.

I love how Nina puts her arms protectively in front of herself, as if she's scared he might do it to her as well.

I think the correct protocal for a vertical axis is two rapid slashes forming an X. His method is more appropriate given the target's attire, however, because you are also going for the skirt's waistline (his cut was high.) Something tells me Kevin could fill him in on the pointers. PS - There's no way he could be an action star ... he's a southpaw. |

The look on the Rei Mannequin's face is funny. It's so uninterested.

Oh that was just so wrong. Poor action guru has no idea how creepy that was. Man needs to watch a little girls with guns action.
Rei mannequin = pure genius. |

Knives? Most of the stuff I've seen involves ripping with bare hands. Or, if a knife is used, slowly ripping just to emphasize what you're doing (i.e. let the camera focus on the chest longer).
But there's another role for women in action anime: the muscled, over-sexualized fighter! And if she has too many clothes at the beginning of the episode, the sharp weapons will take care of that... |

Great comic as always but, um, I think Nina is in danger for obvious reasons. Someone should come to her rescue...
