I want the character to make sense. You're making a bunch of assumptions on things we don't know and the fact that she's a woman. I'm criticizing the information we got this chapter about how she sees herself, and its weird and almost contradictory.

We're presented a cliche scene of a girl inheriting the special weapon of her family, much like Kate, but unlike Kate who was forced to cross dress to hide herself, Akira choose to cross dress because she thinks people look down on her because of her gender.

The story does nothing to present to us why she has this mindset. Her parents support her, and all of her training doesn't look to be toned down at all. In fact it looks like it constantly ramped up as she got older. So its weird that she thinks this way in the first place with not evidence of it.

The girl were presented with however is someone who does think these things of herself. She doesn't want to dress as a man but actively resents being a woman. Even before cross dressing she was bothered by her own body, sexually repressed or not. Her undressing in front of the other students doesn't feel like a forced act with that question mark hanging at the side. It makes her seem like someone who doesn't care about her gender at the least, but we're shown someone who cares a lot. She promised to return home but we can safely assume that her parents didn't, and wouldn't mind. When her Ego is set up that high and the story throws its cliche in the garbage that hard, its at least a little weird that she's wearing laced panties.

The real reason she's wearing those is that we're reading softcore porn. It makes sense for Kate to do it because she has actually been repressed. Its not about cross dressing correctly its about it not making sense for Akira's character.

this is so simple its stupid
the reason why she doesn't have to commit underneath is because she has big tits, you're comparing Kate who can easily hide hers to a big tiddie woman who if you see one or the other its game over anyway that's why
it ain't that hard
the answer is and has always been BIG BOOBS as funny as that sounds :dogkek:
size matters

They don't matter so much that she Actively hides her chest. In a school with shared locker rooms where any random boy could potentially find her panties in a stall. From a character too dumb to fully comprehend the difference between the sexes. The real answer is that the artist just wanted to draw lace panties. That's it.

you're not the artist so you wouldn't know either way, also you really think someone who is trying to hide their gender would be so stupid as to leave things like that out in the open? or would go when there are people in the thing?
people would go to lengths to do that if they were even minutely invested in hiding their gender

then why would they wear laced panties in the first place when they can fight hard enough to tear their cloths?

because they don't normally fight outside of the barrier, also she's ranked 3rd, the only 2 that can even get close to beating her are rank 1 and 2, the chances of anyone damaging her clothing is very slim

Yet she fought the very guy who could and did.

yup, a mistake on her part.. which happens, because she probably thought she'd win if she gave it her all(because this is a manga and the plot isn't hard to understand)

there's nothing wrong with what was said, mistakes happen and it was in an enclosed area so even on the off chance she was found out, it would only be her and him
again, this isn't really that complicated, you're trying to say "oh its a plot hole" when there's none, you're trying to complicate a story that's just straight up, action, ero that makes sense that anyone can understand

Its not complicated, Its funny because the laced panties and the character don't match. Nothing in these chapters would suggest they match and it only seems to happen because this is an erotic story. I know what I'm reading, but that doesn't mean I have to take it at face value. That's why its funny that its so mismatched and doesn't make sense.

that's a very limited view of how people work, people are often contradictory, just because there's a serious looking character doesn't mean they don't have a lewd side, people often have characteristics and do things or wear things you wouldn't think matches their personality, also you're a few chapters in, expecting to know majority of what a character is like in a few chapters is also limiting the plot and the author too much, that's not how writing works, characters are flushed out throughout a series of chapters not all at once, you looked at things at face value and went all "this character is supposed to be like this because the hints point this way" that's not how good writing works, that's also not how stories last long

Its not "the character is supposed to be like this", Its "the character as been acting like 'that' so why is she wearing 'this'?". Actual "set up and pay off" is exactly how good witting works. We Just got her whole backstory; if there was going to be a hint in why she would wear laced panties it should be there. There's nothing to grow into because she already has them on. It doesn't fit with her character that just got fleshed out. The first thing we see are her boobs and then her panties, that's the set up. But other than why she hides her boobs, there's not pay off for the panties. This chapter is a fleshing out chapter, and its funny that the panties are the outlier, that's my point.

the panties are a part of the character, again humans work in different ways, just because they're acting a certain way, in her case hiding her gender doesn't mean she all of a sudden has to wear prim and proper panties

The panties being a part of the character is the whole reason why its funny. With all of the context we're given, she wouldn't wear panties at all let alone laced ones. That's why it stands out. She doesn't have enough womanly interests built up in this fleshing out chapter; and her ego and commitment to cross dress is so big that wearing something like laced panties, doesn't just seem dumb but also out of character. Stories are written with the readers making assumptions in mind, that's how surprises work. Surprise, Akira is a girl. Surprise, she's so committed that she'd promised her parents that she'd leave the school if she's ever found out. Surprise, her parents don't care that she's a girl and don't support this mindset or idea. Then why is she wearing laced panties? There could plenty of reasons on why she's wearing those panties and most of them would work as a joke because currently its funny that she has them on at all.

idk man, you've never seen lewd boyish girls before?
this is taking it to the other end and it is just the first part of the reveal, but i assume it's probably for comfort if anything, there was really no reason for her not to wear anything, i mean she won't wear briefs that's for sure, its just panties, you're looking into the thing too much
i've already said what i wanted to say regarding that, you can put it all up to "she likes to wear them regardless"
and again the chances of her being caught was really low regardless

I'm not looking into it much. I'm thinking just a little bit and others found it just as funny as I did some and people are going... "well, she has them on so that's that" as if that makes things make sense. You criticized me about making assumptions but your stance is based on tropes and gender norms in a story that's main focus is playing with them. So yes, I'm going to call them out when they don't add up because that's the whole point of the story.

And to be as clear as possible, my argument was never "Akira should never wear laced panties." Its "Its odd that Akira would wear laced panties after everything that's been shown about her." So I ask you? Is it not odd?
