The enigmatic blue string of Hestia knows no bounds. Wink

If you people think this is bad now, wait for the North American convention season to kick off. I'm pretty sure this is going to catch over here.

Hestia is the brand name for a range of bras in Australia made by the Pacific Brands company.

This string crap is so stupid. She's not even a good character

The show itself is crap, but you can't deny that her character design is very sexual and suggestive.

I would not be surprised if I see at least three Hestia cosplayers when I go to Anime Midwest this summer because of this. Anime hyper

Holy cow, I hope you are right about the cons! I guess I'll have to take my camera to Anime Expo and hope. Heh, heh, I'm schtalking youuuu.

Seriously, I think all this is hilarious and I love the earlier comment alluding to "string theory". Yes!! Hestia's gravity defying boobs are a direct result of the use of her blue Supersymmetric String, which sets up a reverse curvature to approximately null the gravity in it's vicinity. The color comes from Cherenkov radiation from electrons leaking out along the event horizon after being accelerated in from the ends. That probably feels "tingly" too. Who needs a bra now??

I read a bit of the manga and gave up on it (and the franchise) as it was just the typical harem adventure RPG stuff. Reading one story after the other how the franchise "excels" at big breasts now leaves me feeling very vindicated and i am not sure if it´s good promotion or not if the most famous aspect of your work is the female leads rack if your franchise isn´t supposed to be a porno. Hm.
The unbelievable redicilouse RE:Monster (that anime is 100% coming) and Spirit Migration will need to fill my void for similar content.

I don't why they locked the comments section. I saw the figure and it's okay. So what else is new that we haven't seen before where a character has some useless accessory that looks like it hinders other than help. Reminds me of that Capcom character who has straps around his leg. But get that joke, "tension".

this is so silly its downright hilarious .

To think this all started from a colored piece of cloth that wraps around and/or supports this character's female parts.

this was going to be one of those anime that id shelve on a 'to watch' list but never actually get to it till years later(or never).

With all this commotion going on i think i'll go watch it now, if only to see this string in action, science is serious business.
