And everything would be right in the world.

Actually, Misha's weight is appropriate for someone of her height and build. I'm 152 cm and 53 kg and I have the exact same body as Misha. What bothers me more are her proportions. Someone with Misha's build and weight is NOT going to have a waist that tiny or boobs that small. A 58 cm waist is model-sized, which we all know Misha ain't with dem jelly rolls. Someone with Misha's build would have a waist that's about 70-80 cm thick. Her boobs and hips would be around 100 cm.

Well yeah, but that doesn't really make me agree with their existence. But that's just me.

I agree that Misha's stats aren't appropriate, but 70-80cm waist and 100cm rack?...... That's more than a bit too much.

I stand corrected. (I checked the numbers again)

Though unless the Devs decide to redo the sprites, i don't see them 'making the sprites match the numbers'

I think the presence of a "healthy" looking girl is quite refreshing in a game like this. I struggle with weight issues myself. The smallest I have been is around 127 lbs and a size 7 in jeans and I would not WANT to be any smaller. In fact I was more comfortable around 130-140 and a size 10, my face looked better and not so gaunt and my boobs were bigger and the difference from my boobs to going in at the waist and back out in the rear/thighs gave me a more "shapely" appearance in my eyes. Overly skinny just is not that attractive to me - I understand it's "all the rage" these days, but I feel that having curves is much sexier. I'm not saying being 200+ lbs is sexy, but being soft, feminine, and womanly, is much more appealing to me as a woman than being a bag of bones. Right now I've chunked up a lil again since college, but recently started running about 2 miles a day and have faith I'll drop the weight again, but like I said I'm really not looking to lose alot. A size 10 to me is more lovely than a size 2 or zero. Different strokes for different folks I guess

Yeah, we'll just chock this up to artist collaboration radio silence. Though I dont' mind how she turned out. Her shape seems good 'nuff.

Frankly with Misha's level of hyper-activity I'm surprised she wasn't drawn more trim than half the girls, but then it used to be superstition that lauging made you fat.

Now, don't get on the writers and the artists trouble about discrepancies in Misha's spites versus her Body Mass Index. I am sure it will be revealed later on in the full VN that Misha is realy an undercover femenist operative monitoring Kenji. She is actualy wearing a bullet proof vest under that loose blouse.

It's been said before that a good majority of the stats were decided by a random number generator. They're just there to add flavor. I wouldn't take them as exact measurements, more like something around that area.

I'll just take what I see, thank you.

And I like what I see.

I probably got the conversions wrong. I use mostly metric.

40 inch bust, 30 inch waist, 40 inch hip was around what I was thinking. That's pretty much what I think of when I think "chubby" girl.

I use metric system all the time, and I still think those are exaggerated. Considering that Shizune and Misha look about the same height (officially 158, which is more or less normal in Japan, IIRC), Misha is too short to have those sizes you give. She'd look kinda different if that was the case.

Seems like I have to randomize the measurements on the site again.

Taking them off completely would work better

Omg, don't do it! Everyone has got to know the girls' blood types! I mean, come on.

Aura wrote:Taking them off completely would work better

idk, they seemed believable enough for me.

I find it comforting that Shizune is the only universal donor there.
