Mai's Outfit is Not Made for Flight

SNK has added Terry Bogard and the one character that many fans wanted in King of Fighters XII, Mai Shiranui, to inexplicably fly the ridiculous skies in KOF: Sky Stage. Mai's been around for so long that people have probably stopped wondering how her outfit stays on while she's fighting or even moving, but how in the world is her outfit supposed to stay on while she's flying? Everyone else's regular fighting gear seems decent enough for flying and battling. Even Athena's schoolgirl uniform is better for flying. Hey, when did Athena start wearing the schoolgirl uniform for this game? Wasn't she in her red fighting duds that last time we saw her? Anyways, Mai's clothing would blow off in mere seconds if she tried to fly. And Terry will have to keep his hat on extra tight or that's going, too. Check out the Sky Stage site for some screenshots of Mai and Terry doing their special fighting game moves in a shooter world.

Enjoy this picture of Mai hovering while I continue to figure out why this game exists.
