If the blue kimono Kasumi makes it into the game (it will) I really hope they make it less skimpy. As others have said, it's fine for some characters, but not for Kasumi. The kimono is pretty though. I loved that other entry she had with the black sheer fabric sleeves, black sheer stockings, and the black dress with cherry blossoms on it. I hope if TN decides the kimono one is too hard to make they choose the black dress one. >>'

The black dress one is one of my preferred ones for Kasumi. I just don't like the style of "kimono" kasumi. She looks like she fell into a closet while changing. I don't even know how she got her legs into those "boots".

There has been some rearrangements on the album entries right now by placing late entries back to where they belong. My Helena entry was previously placed below the Lisa entries and now it is positioned to where it is supposed to be. I'm glad TN decided to do that.

JDSILVA's Sarah has now reached 20 likes, mine has 17, Patrick's Jacky got 15 and QJ's Christie with 12.

I give up on trying to get likes, I'm proud of my design and that's good enough for me. I don't want anyone to "like" my entry if they don't actually like my entry. this was a learning experience for me.
I wish i was the same. I already knew a lot of people didn't like mine, and im still proud of it being the only submission that, imo, actually suits her, rather than just cute or sexy. but what frustrates me is that her most liked submissions, are just generically cute/sexy, without suiting her much at all. SSo its massive dissappointment at the Mila voters, mostly. I just wanna yell "do you even care about the character?!", but i already know the answer. only blue, yoga, and arguably power armor Mila come close to suiting her, and none of them have much likes, which is so disappointing.

I really hope that the costumes that make it into DLC aren't dependant on the number of likes.
Personally, most of the costumes that are winning aren't very appealing to me. For me, the only characters who's best entries are currently winning are: Bass, Ein, Eliot, Jacky, Leon and Momiji.

Still, I think, it is not fair to the other contestants or the whole idea of a fair contest, to completely overlook the obvious fraud going on there and just letting you win out of sympathy for you. What about the next entry, that is cheated to the top? Will it also be awarded a sympathy winning spot? That's not a fair contest anymore...

Sorry, I think that I was the first to suggest a similar idea (but actually I just said that the problem could bring votes of sympahty, not that had to be a justification for getting definitely them or for TN to give an automatic victory to the entry), but I said it just because the outfit it was really much appreciated even before this matter: if really someone wanted try to eliminate the outfit from the competition because envy of its success, I liked the idea that actually its efforts wouldn't have been able to reach that goal, but just the opposite one.

Anyway I think that @Shiranui - with good reasons - prefer don't talk more about it, so let's put aside this matter.

And @Tyaren , what happens with your outfit is not a surprise for me: when a "controversial" idea reachs a big appreciation by the people, this happens all the time: it's not a case that also @Brute outfit is knowing the same fate. I think that you should get the positive side from the question, definitely your work wasn't able to appear not noticed, for the better and for the worse.

PS: Sadly I agree with Shiranui, usually this is the fate of ideas being seen with homosexual allusion - real ones or just supposed.

Thanks for the vote @indieanimator =)

It's different and cute, and even makes sense story wise

Now that I think about it...why is this so unpopular? Just 16 votes? It's really cute, well designed and the most original of the Alpha 152 designs. Such a shame... I would have voted for that design..but I NEVER use Alpha...

Must admit it's a very cute outfit. Especially with the sticky "52" paper on the back, it's like Alpha decided to be a normal young woman or something.

Hah yeah there's no chance of Alpha winning any popularity contest. But I am surprised so many people voted for a palette swap when you have two very good and original entries for her. I wouldn't spend a penny on palette swaps

In any cases, I think that for the majority of the Alpha-152 fans even a palette swap DLC would be better than to not get anything like happened until now..

Oh I almost forgot to say thanks to anyone who voted for jailbreak P4. I'm sure it's tough to vote since she's not even out and half the girls are in album 3, so all the support means that much more to me... Even if TN rejects the costume I plan to do some P4/Alpha doujinshi featuring similar themes

I still want them to include that short hairstyle shown in the variants of the costume, as a toggle hairstyle for p4. still irritates me that without the hood, she's completely indistinguishable from Kasumi proper.

I've decided on something. I am going to take what I think, is the best costume for each character from this contest, and all of my fanart will be of them in those costumes, as if they were their main outfit. This costume did supply us with dozens of excellent new outfits for the characters, so even though they likely won't be in game, I plan on still getting a lot of mileage out of them. Who knows, maybe if TN sees the fans adopting outfits as official costumes out of the game, they'll be brought in for DOA6. Now the question is, should I just do what I think is the most suitable outfit for each character (not most well designed, there's a huge difference there), OR would anyone in FSD like to put our own little community votes as to which outfits should become unofficial primary outfits for characters? anyone interested in doing something like that to promote the outfits we feel suit the characters the most? aagain, not which outfits are the most well designed/pretty, but which ones actually fit the character? (that's been what bugs me the most about the dlc, very little of it actually suits the characters they are on)

I really like the idea about doing a FSD poll of the DOA costume contest! But it seems hard to choose a costume just because it fits well to the character, without considering drawing quality and good design. Having said that, I'm in. It will be THE real poll :-D

well, for example, Hitomi. of her two top outfits, the karate bear skirt suits her, while the other is a military outfit. she is not in the military, so it doesn't. tthat's how I'm looking at it.
