The design is way more Sailor Moon than I thought.
But wouldn’t it be better if they make them into a swimsuit?

Hey, if I take my clothes off, it’ll be amazing. (In a Sailor Warrior way).

Things that will probably happen after this:
・ Lots of comments suggesting these to wives and girlfriends, and lots of comments refusing.
・ Rumours about the cosplay sex industry using these and ordering them.
・ Otaku uploading pictures of themselves wearing these.
・ Loads of people in groups of 5 wearing this underwear at summer Comiket

So nostalgic.
