Mine shipped a couple of days ago from amiami, so I won't update once I get it on Monday or Tuesday just to see it in action.

Is there any part of the game where the characters' panties will actually be exposed? And why can't I see the bra in the X-ray vision?

Somewhere in Japan there's a coder that can't get the stupid grin off his face.

It's just a bit tricky to see but there is a bra on the characters, this is not a nude bug or barbie anatomy bug. |

Every programmer knows not to write unnecesary code, and every 3D artist knows not to waste polygon count on features that are not going to be used. While the transparency glitch may be an accident [as the programmer who wrote the transparency code was unaware of a skin layer beneath and they had been set up by the artist in a manner that did not let the property inherit properly] the underwear layer certainly isn't. Someone spent a fair amount of time setting up those polygons and skinning them with art assets.
(Or they recycled 3D assets from some other project, or have a generic 3D asset farm that has character models with underwear.) |

I wonder how many owners of this game are going to opt out of updating it

Darn it. I wanted to see the back of Kou's cousin. I have this hole in my heart now.
This user gets it. |

I have a feeling the user is going to receive plenty of bruises after watching all of those panty shots.

I doubt it's a bug. Notice how close the NPC is in the X-ray shots and where the player's character is? It's obvious they've positioned themselves just on the edge of the point where the camera is about to pass through them, but not quite all the way. In some games if you do this it either gives you a disturbing look inside the NPC or makes them disappear, this game seems to make them fade awkwardly.
There is no bra, there isn't even a torso. The body rendering on all of these stops at the waist. Look just above the panties and you can see where it cuts off. They didn't even render arms under the sleeves. So no, this isn't some programmer goofing off or leftovers from a cut feature, it's just some guy playing around with the camera and calling it a bug.

Emerje seems to be 100% about this. Just a very awkward version of the standard "camera too close" thing

From a very close look the characters do look almost completely transparent above the waist, it's a tad creepy to look at. |

Are you expecting a 3D model to not have a bottom or something? Any character with a regular skirt is going to be modeled with underwear. |

Awful lot of these 'bugs' on Vita games lately... (Warning somewhat NSFW)
