Dead or Alive 3
DOA: Xtreme Beach Volleyball


Hitomi








Okay. Some Japanese company called Tecmo is famous for their famous Dead or Alive video game girls. They make them really pretty and uh. big and bouncy. Anyways, I found an Asian/eyeball obsession parallel in this game.

One of the sexy polygon's name is Hitomi. For those who don't know Japanese (like me), Hitomi means eye. Maybe it has some other meaning when its in a name, but by itself it means eye. Remember that.

Why would anyone want to name their jumble of polygons and spheres after a body part? Because it is the eye and that is what Asians obsess over.

Hitomi first appeared in Dead or Alive 3, a fighting game in which perverts can have the girls high kick while wearing short skirts. Hitomi was the main advertisement for the game. When this game was about to come out, gaming magazines would run 2 pages of a big picture of Hitomi. Why Hitomi? Because her name means eye.

Then came Dead or Alive: Xtreme Beach Volleyball, an even more perverted game in which gamers can dress up characters like Hitomi in swim suits made up of three tiny pieces of cloth. Of course this game was made so Asians could live up to their fantasies of dressing up their eyes, because when they dress up Hitomi, it's like dressing up their eyeballs in happiness.

Or something like that.

Now show me more
