We heard about this a few days ago but only now have nice pictures emerged.
And what pictures they are…
A new Fuji TV show called “Yoroi Bijo” (Armor Beautiful Girl) features hot Gravure models putting on and taking off suits of armor, known in Japanese as kacchu or yoroi.
As we know from a recent example, Japanese TV is not averse to some pretty risque and bizarre concept shows.
So if you have a thing for girls wearing shiny armor and other medieval costumes, then this is definitely the TV show for you.
The ladies wear the armor to demonstrate how nice and heavy it is. Then they take it off, piece by piece, while talking about history.
Finally, they write some calligraphy.
That’s it.
First up, we have Shoko Takasaki wearing Date Masamune’s armor. Okay, she does wear it — we promise!
Later in the year we can look forward to Yuka Kuramochi, she of the amazing butt, wearing the armor of Oda Nobunaga.
Kana Fujita is wearing Sanada Yukimura’s armor (but not for long).
And finally, the lovely Hitomi Yasueda is wearing Uesugi Kenshin’s suit.
A little while ago there was a craze for so-called reki-jo, female history buffs.
But this is different. It’s hot girls in historical cosplay heaven. Yoroi-moe!
There’s definitely plenty of other examples of this around.
The trope is called ikusa otome — a warrior maiden with a weapon.
Erotic fan art is full of these warriors, plus there are video games like “Ikusa Otome Valkyrie”. Here’s Rena Nonen (correct us if we’re wrong) in ikusa otome garb.
The fantasy has even inspired adult cosplay costumes too, not to mention its own masturbator toy.
Ladies, get ready for battle!
