Why does that Shinobi character use a scarf either?
Also, since you're a girl, I won't make any commentaries about you wanting Rikku-sama to use a shirt and cover her deliciously-designed CG meat... err, body (accidentally filtered heterosexual design); as GG! would probably say, "NEKKID BOOBIES!!"

Because Shinobi is a fucking ninja. If Rikku were to start running up walls and slashing up hordes of enemies in an instant, she could keep her stupid scarf.
I still don't see why a ninja needs a scarf, regardless of what you said. It's still incredibly stupid.
Personally, I find most RPG character designs to suck or, at best, to be uninspired. What do you consider good character designs then in a RPG, Delphine?
Actually, that is pretty horrendous. I can't stand how she's trying to be, like, four things at once; prissy village girl, haughty evil mistress, then there's the whole wing/tail thing. Reminds me of those people you see in Ragnarok Online that suffocate themselves with accessories only for the stat bonuses they give, only to wind up looking like freaking clowns.
Actually, I rather like the design on that anime whatever girl in the middle, just not that hula hoop she's wearing...or at least I think it's attached to her. Normal designs are fine, but in most cases, they're far too boring for me, especially when I'm drawing outfits and the likes. That said, I don't think I go too over the top as Nomura has done though.
Oh, was that fanart (Is Falcoon a fanartist or professional?)? I didn't know, actually; I found it on a site which had a lot of high quality videogame artwork (kawaiidream.net), and to my knowledge, none of the images in the videogame section were fanart. I guess I could find another image of Dizzy, but the fact stands that not only does she have long blue hair, but she also has a demonic black wing, an angelic white wing, a tail, and a giant bow. Her clothing is the tamest part of her whole design (that's not really saying much).
In fact, a fanartist (or "doujinshi mangaka") can be a professional artist and ALSO still be a fanartist, even for his/ her own designs.
EDIT: Shit, how fast does this topic drives itself off-topic?
