Tiona and Tione Hiryute (DanMachi Gaiden: Sword Oratorio)

Anime is almost certainly synonymous with fan service- though admittedly in my experience good fan service for foot fans like me aren't always easy to find. Anime tends to gravitate their attention to boobs or butts, or panty shots. While I enjoy panchira as much as the next hentai, it is beyond frustrating to watch awesomely sexy anime like Agent AIKA which has so much silky fan service but seldom any bared soles or toes in sight. And so it is when I find anime that has barefoot babes in it, I celebrate quite a bit.

Here's a recent and probable gem- a new anime series, DanMachi Gaiden: Sword Oratorio has just debuted. Based on a series of light novels, this is a light-hearted fantasy adventure series in the RPG overtones, complete with over the top spells, character classes and levels for each of the characters and monsters that explode into nothingness upon death. Our focus here is on the lovely pair of exotic and irresistible Amazons, Tiona and Tione Hiryute. Though they aren't the main characters, they are onscreen for a good part of the time which is not a surprise because they're HOT. Scantily-dressed and barefoot, these two veteran adventurers are also as kick-ass as they are sexy.

Of course, it's Tiona who's my favorite- she is the more tomboyish of the pair, with shorter, slightly messy hair and a very slim chest (yes, they focus her assets on her sexy legs and quite formidable, bare feet), her sexy feet are often the points of interest as she leaps about or give the occasional killer kick.
Her sister, Tione, the long-haired and big-boobed beauty, often teases Tiona for her modest breasts, but I can say quite readily flat chests and sexy feet are a killer combination, and I'm sure foot fans aplenty will be scrambling in line to worship Tiona's perfect peds.

Episode 1 of Sword Oratorio has quite a few scenes with Tiona in footie action, which leads me to believe that the anime/manga makers have us foot fans in mind with her and Tione. I'm certainly going to collect this series as it goes on- which hopefully will be for a good duration. Check out the video above and see the sexy fan service action for yourself!

Uncharted 4 Sexy Cinemaic and List of Sexy Shoe-Removal Scenes!

Nathan finds himself in a dance with Nadine Ross, a less-than-friendly new babe, in this Uncharted 4 Trailer...

The trailer above for Uncharted 4: A Thief's End contains a pretty awesome type of scene that foot-lovers should love- the sexy 'pre-fight shoe removal' scene. We see it in quite a few scenes with badass females- a woman takes off her shoes so she can fight without impediment or abandon. It's quite hot, and I felt in celebration of this cool spot, I'd like to list down some other 'shoe-removal' scenes I've seen in the past, in film and other media. How about you guys? Any sexy, teasing pre-combat footwear shedding scenes come to mind?

Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation. A pretty recent entry, featuring the gorgeous actress Rebecca Ferguson as Ilsa Faust, a sexy double agent and femme fatale who is not averse to removing her high heels when she needs to fight or run in her bare feet. There are two scenes of shoe removal in the film, one at the start where Ilsa preps to 'torture' Ethan, and another where Ilsa has Ethan remove her shoes for her (lucky bastard). Coming on the heels (heh) of Jurassic World, a film remembered for its female heroine's ability to spend time in a jungle or being chased by a T-Rex in super high heels.

Pacific Rim. Female protagonist Mako (played by the lovely Rinko Kikuchi) takes off her bulky combat boots to spar with hero Raleigh Becket (Charlie Huunam). We don't actually see her taking them off, just laying them down... but we do get to see a royal view of Miss Kikuchi's rather interesting bare feet.

Kill Bill Vol. 1. A missed opportunity, sadly- at the climax of the House of Blue Leaves battle scene is a fatal duel between The Bride (Uma Thurman) and O-ren Ishii (Lucy Liu). Just before the fight begins, 'Lady Snowblood' Ishii steps out of her geta sandals (with a nice closeup), but unfortunately she is wearing tabi socks. We DO get a bit of a nice, if very brief scene of O-ren's bare feet running atop a table to decapitate a rebellious Yakuza Boss, but that doesn't really count for much- sad for a film from renowned foot lover Quentin Tarantino.

Charlie's Angels. Now this isn't actually a fight scene, but we do see Angel Alex Munday (Lucy Liu again) taking off her heels prior to giving a slimy exec (played by the lucky Tim Curry) a sexy barefoot shiatsu massage- which includes rubbing her feet and toes all over his face... MAN.

Machete Kills. Beauty Queen/villainess Miss San Antonio (Amber Heard) both kicks off her heels AND cuts her long dress in preparation for a fight with a blinded Michelle Rodriguez. The actual shoe removal isn't focused well enough, but we do get some nice glances of the femme fatale's feet throughout the fight. Nice sexy scene in any case.

Samurai Champloo. In Episode 20 (Elegy of Entrapment, Vol. 1) we are introduced to Sara, a blind female musician who is eventually revealed to be a deadly spear-wielding assassin. Prior to her first duel with rogue swordsman Mugen, we get a wonderfulview of her soles as she steps out of her sandals to fight in her bare feet. The only wrinkle I have with this entry is that when Sara returns in Episode 21 (and her inevitable defeat) the animation art style changes, which I find very jarring. Anyway, the first appearance of Sara is both badass and sexy, and a must-see for footfans.



Awesome anime fight scene (and barefoot female fighting action) from Samurai Champloo!

These are just a few scenes at the top of my mind- I may add to this, if I remember more, How about you guys? Any memorable footwear-removal scenes come to mind?

Ramlethal Valentine is in the House! (Guilty Gear Xrd SIGN PS4)

Gorgeous anime-style fighting action from Guilty Gear Xrd on PS4.

It's been a long wait, but last week Guilty Gear Xrd SIGN arrived on the PS4 (exclusive). This awesome fighting sequel is one of the most eye-catchingly pretty fighting games I've ever seen, thanks to the vibrant colors, graphics, characters and camera angles that punctuate the flashy action. But of course, the best thing about the game for us foot fans is Ramlethal Valentine, the one single barefoot babe in the game. Ram-chan is the game's Final Boss (at least initially), a seemingly emotionless superbabe bent on destroying humanity (so awesome!). Aside from being as cute as a button, she perhaps has some of the nicest-looking, well-drawn and detailed feet I've seen (in both her artwork and her in-game model). Even better, her intros always give lovely and lingering focus on her kissable feet, from the sole view in one and from the top on another- easily the cameraman knew what was really worth locking his lens on. Heheh...


Ramenthal's VS mode intro never gets old...

Anyways, aside from her cuteness and pretty-much-bare feet, Ram-chan's animations are pretty cool- she has a nice, sexy walk which is accented by nice, fleshy footsteps- and her attacks are cat-like and graceful. She's definitely my favorite character in the game- if only I-No and Millia were able to shed their boots... oh well.

Check out the vids I've posted showing off Ram-chan in action. I may post more stuff, as well as cutscenes from the Story Mode, if I find parts that give special focus to our favorite Valentine. For now, enjoy the vids and imagine Ram-chan's soles pressing on your faces... yum!


Potemkin does his piledriver-like Instant Kill on Ramenthal in this bout- don't worrry, she can take it.

Ramlethal Valentine Official Art (Guilty Gear Xrd SIGN)

Yep, my new favorite Boss Babe.

I've featured the cute AND sexy new Final Boss lady Ramlethal Valentine from Guilty Gear Xrd SIGN before, and this won't be the last given that I am totally loving this new videogame villainess. I mean, just look at her. The pic above of course is her Official Character Art from the game, and I am happy that they did not disappoint in drawing her pretty-much bare feet- I have to say, she has big feet for a girl, and those long, delicate-looking toes look simply perfect. I have to say this is a no-brainer fave for any foot-loving gamer worth their salt. Heheh. Really though- what ARE those things wrapped around her feet? What do you call them? Why wear them at all? Heh.

Anyway, I am also loving her art as it's drawn kinda like how you'd see her- from below, as she's floating above you, soles in your face. MAN that would be a sight to see before the end of the world- well, the end if she's not stopped by the Guilty Gear fighters.

The arcade version of Guilty Gear Xrd SIGN will be getting Ram-chan as a playable character sometime in April. Hopefully the upcoming console versions (GGXrd is coming to PS3 and PS4 within the year) will have her playable out of the box.

Can't wait to see more of this lovely goddess of destruction soon. And later, in full HD on my PS4 (when I buy it). Heheh. For now, enjoy the art of Ram-chan!

Ramlethal Valentine, Part Deux (Guilty Gear Xrd SIGN)

Guilty Gear Xrd's Boss is reason enough to get this game.

I posted some weeks ago about this lovely and lethal boss babe, Ramlethal Valentine (the English subtitles mistook her name spelling as Ramletherl) from Guilty Gear Xrd SIGN. Back then, we hadn't yet gotten a good look at Ram-chan ingame (just the brief look at her from afar in the Arcade Opening Cinematic), and no full-body art of her was available. We DID have a fullbody fan art of her, which we really liked and wished was accurate, showing her barefoot save for some odd wrap-thing around her instep. Anyway, I've found another artwork of her, with nice views of her soles!

Well, good news is that YES, indeed, our lovely Ramlethal is indeed barefooted, as befitting a floating super-powered villain babe. We FINALLY get a good look at her in-game at GGXrd's Arcade mode, including her wonderful Intro Cutscene that nicely shows her off feet-first with a lovely view of her sexy soles and toes. A couple of arcade runs of the game has the cutsene, but the vid above cuts to the chase and shows the Boss fight intro and battle right away- check it out!

I am really wanting this game already (it's coming to PS3 and PS4) and I want to see more of 'Ram-chan' as much as possible. She has been confirmed to be playable and should have her own extensive Story Mode cinematics and all the trimmings. Guilty Gear Xrd SIGN is looking to be a footfan must-have for me in the Next Gen lineup of fighters! Here's to more barefoot babes in the game somehow (Maybe a redesigned Jam or Baiken will be barefoot..?), but even now I am stoked for GGXrd! Heheh.

Man, seeing Milia Rage's Intro just makes me want her barefoot so badly though... sigh.

Jenny Realight (Fairy Tail)

The sexy Jenny Realight from Blue Pegasus. HOT!

Fairy Tail is one of my favorite manga and anime these days- with one of the reasons why being an abundance of barefoot footage from its cast of hot lady wizards. I've posted about the show's main hotties, Erza Scarlet and Lucy Heartfilia before, but this time the spotlight is on a sub-character of the show- a sexy enchantress who isn't even part of the Fairy Tail guild. She's Jenny Realight of Blue Pegasus. She's not evil but more of a friendly rival, in particular to FT's lovely Mirajane... of course their confrontation showed off quite a bit of skin.

But for this post in particular I got intrigued in the lovely Jenny due to the latest episode of Fairy Tail's anime- episode 171, which features an underwater battle and bikini babes aplenty. While there are many lovely anime ladies showing off their swimsuit bodies, the hottest is definitely Jenny, who also shows off an AWESOME kick and sole shot in the course of the contest. Check it out!



One of the best sole shots I've seen in anime, and I've seen a lot. 

Now THAT is one yummy view... you almost wish you'd rather be in the poor bloke's place if you could just get close to such a beauty's perfect soles. Well, maybe not if your face gets pulverized in the process. I do find Jenny's foot perfectly drawn, even with the speedlines. This one's a keeper (I've already put it on my wallpaper collection. Heheh.

Aside from Jenny, there are quite a few other babes in bikinis and barefoot in the episode, includine main heroine Lucy, watery nymph Juvia and even villainess Minerva (who is sadly wearing a pretty horrid swimsuit). So this episode is a must for bikini and barefoot babe fans.



Ryona fans will dig this shot, though Lucy fans will hate it. Nice view though...

Sadly, it appears that the Fairy Tail anime will be ending this month- not sure if it has been or will be renewed for another season; the manga is still going and is supposedly quite popular. I hope that someday, somehow we'll see more of Fairy Tail (and more magical sole shots from its babes) in the future. For now though, there are 170+ episodes to enjoy of this cool series. Check it out!

Morgiana (Magi: Labyrinth of Magic)

Morgiana is a stunning beauty- in more ways than one!

I haven't posted anything from anime for a long time, but I think this babe is good enough to warrant posting (and following!). Her name is Morgiana, an anime babe from the manga and recently-debuted anime Magi: Labyrinth of Magic. The title is a fantasy/action series starring various characters named after the Tales of the Arabian Nights and other epics, concerning the fight of various Magi to preserve balance in the world. Morgiana is the one female among the main protagonists, and she's a foot-lover's dream babe.
For starters, she's a redhead, and she's plainly gorgeous. More importantly though, she's a KICK-ASS super-strong martial artist and fighter, and from all indications she seems to go barefoot all the time. Can you say, Awesome? You can see Morgiana in action in the Magi Anime's first Opening. Towards the end we see Mor in action against a pack of white tigers, and it ends with an hotter-than-hot sole shot (screencap below!). I think I'm in love.


Admit it, you'd like Morgiana to kick you in the face, don't you?

This amazing red-headed beauty is one battle-hardened cutie who has apparently had a hard life. I think once you've seen her in the anime you'll surely want to comfort and service her by giving those lethal, lovely feet long massages and barrages of kisses. Hopefully she'll appreciate the service and not send us flying with her kicks. So if you can, check out the Magi anime and you may find yourself wanting to follow Morgiana on her many magical and martial-arts kicking adventures.

Dream C Club (Xbox360, Japan-only)

Just a quickie bit here to start off the month. Here are some nice vids with lovely barefoot bikini babes dancing for our pleasure. The babes are from Dream C Club for the Xbox360. This Japan-only game has a pretty off-kilter premise- you're a patron of a hostess bar and you must try to achieve a Happy Ending with one of the many comely anime babes at the place, while trying to get drunk! Anyways, there are the usual song and dance numbers performed by the girls, all of whom you can outfit in various outfits to suit your fancy. Thankfully some of these costumes are barefoot numbers, like the ubiquitous Japanese-style school swimsuit, bikinis and more.


Rui's definitely an eye-catching performer with sole!


The lovely Mian shows her stuff.


Dark-haired Reika in her night shirt is just enchanting.

Anyway, since I'm not in Japan nor can I speak Japanese playing this game is pretty impossible, but at least we can enjoy these vids, and others to be found on Youtube. For now though, enjoy the girls' performances and be sure to give those cute toes worshipping kisses afterwards.

SCIV CASplay: Jue vs Thaddeus (Animatrix)

Then, and even to this day, Final Flight of the Osiris' Jue is one hot barefoot fighting babe.

One of my most favorite barefoot babe fight scenes is the sexy CG striptease swordfight from The Animatrix: Final Flight of the Osiris. Even if Osiris wasn't the exactly the most critically-acclaimed of the various Matrix anime films, it was the most memorable for me, in terms of visuals and, of course, one HOT barefoot kick-ass babe by the name of Jue. Even today, the graphics and animation of that eye-catching duel still holds well to stuff you see in games and movies today- not bad for something released about seven or eight years ago. Anyway, as my previous posts have shown, I'm in a Soulcalibur IV Character Creation mood these days, so I thought... why not remake the Jue and Thaddeus fight in CASplay?

Well, the result isn't perfect- while I think Thad turned out pretty well... really, who cares? Jue on the other hand looks slightly different, mainly due to a lack of an exact hairstyle and underwear customization that's like in the film. Plus, both of them have no blindfolds. On the whole though, I think she's a pretty good redo. So to fix that up, I thought up some backstory to set up the video.

So this sword duel between Jue and Thad isn't actually the same fight shown in The Animatrix- This battle actually takes place several years before the events in Final Flight of the Osiris, in fact, the first duel ever between Thaddeus and Jue. This explains why they both look a bit younger than in the film. Also, to explain the combative nature of their dialogue to each other (not stuff lovers would exchange, obviously), it's due to the fact that they're NOT in a relationship yet. Thad is the respected veteran, while Jue is a young upstart recruit, and they each hate each others' guts. In this fight, they're actually trying to take the other out- unlike in the anime, where they're basically just performing foreplay. Check out the vid now!


This duel is set years before the one in the anime. Also, this fight ends with a definite victor.

And the winner is... JUE! Why, you ask, when she was clearly the one lying unconscious on the floor at the end of the match. Well, yes, Jue did lose the fight, but Thaddeus lost his heart to the young woman who fought him with such exceptional skill, courage... and perfect feet with smooth and soft soles he'd surely want to caress, massage and stroke for hours... with his face.

Who knows, perhaps this was indeed the case- perhaps Jue and Thad's relationship began at First Fight. Well, certainly it would have given him, as it gave us, ample opportunity to see and ogle Jue's lovely bare feet in action... and surely by now we're madly in love with her as well. So enjoy the vid and keep dreaming of Jue's soft soles pressing into your face.

Haruna POV Foot Stomp (Kore Wa Zombie Desu Ka)

Here's an awesome treat for barefooted stomping fans... this is a clip from the new anime Kore Wa Zombie Desu Ka, a hilarious new ecchi action-comedy. The story is about the adventures of Ayumu, a hapless guy-turned-immortal-zombie and a somewhat amoral magical girl named Haruna. Don't ask... it sounds wild, and probably pretty awesome. Anyway, the scene has our hapless zombie hero for some reason leeching away Haruna's powers as she tries to cast a spell on him. Unfortunately for her, it not only leeches her powers but her clothes as well! What results of course is a rather painful (well, for Ayumu) POV view of Haruna's cute sole mashing again and again and again into the camera- certainly a treat for us foot fans! I'm sure all of here would LOVE to have Haruna do this to us... sans the bruises and bleeding, of course. Heh... enjoy the clip!

Erza Scarlet (Fairy Tail)

Erza Scarlet AKA Titania AKA Fairy Tail's most kick-ass wizard AND hot barefoot babe.

Recently I've been hooked onto the hilarious action anime Fairy Tail. In blunt terms, it's kinda like a cross between Dragonball Z (over-the-top action and powers), Slayers (magic use) and One Piece (wild character designs), chronicling the adventures and misadventures of a fun-loving guild of wizards in the land of Fiore. But for an anime about wizards, you won't often find a conventional-looking mage (long robes, staff, pointy hat and beard) in this series- mangaka Hiro Mashima's designs of his various magic-using characters are all over the place, with magic being treated more like superpowers than spells cast from a book or wand. One of the most unwizardly-looking wizards in the series is also one of the main protagonists and definitely the hottest heroine in the series. She's Erza Scarlet AKA Titania, S-class Mage and the most powerful female in the Fairy Tail guild.

How unwizard-like is Erza? Well, she uses swords, for one thing. A LOT of them. She can use them with her hands AND feet (more on that later). She can even use them without touching them. Erza's known as 'The Armored Wizard', and her magic specialty is 'Requip', which is basically the ability to materialize something in your hands (or in Erza's case, on her body) from out of thin air, from some other-dimensional storage place. Erza uses her magic to quick-change into various suits of armor and enchanted swords, often with powerful magical abilities. All that plus she has telekinetic abilities that let her dispatch these swords, up to two hundred at a time. In a word, freakin' awesome.

But Erza's requip isn't just used for quick-changing into armor; nicely enough, Erza can use it to switch into other, less obtrusive outfits, such as swimsuits and pajamas. Or other, even crazier things. One such ensemble is shown in one of FT's early episodes, with TItania showing off what can only be described as her 'Battle Chef' outfit. If you look closely, you'll see it's actually just a chef hat and apron worn over a Japanese-style school bathing suit. This is the first time we see Erza requip into a barefoot outfit, and it's just the first.

Erza Battle-Cook

When Erza requps, she goes through a short but flashy transition where she is actually naked; of course we never actually see anything... EXCEPT her bare feet, which suits us footfans just fine.

Erza Transforms

Erza starts off the series seemingly as a very strict, domineering and cold character. But as the series progresses, we begin to see that she does have her moments of quirkiness and even goofy comedy. But most of all, beneath the armor beats what is probably the most selfless, courageous heart in Fairy Tail. Erza's loyalty to her guild and her friends is such that she's willing to give her life in their defense at the drop of a hat. During the 'Tower of Heaven' arc in the anime, we finally learn more about her, particularly about her tragic past. This past comes to haunt her as she is finally forced to confront her greatest enemy, who is also inversely someone she used to love and care for very deeply. Oh, the drama!

During the Tower of Heaven arc we literally see Erza bare her soul ANd soles. Duriing a pivotal battle with a lethal enemy samurai girl named Ikaruga (who has nice feet herself), Erza's many suits of magical armor prove useless. She finally realizes that all this time she's been hiding behind her arsenal to make up for her weaknesses. Erza then requips into what is surely her coolest battle outfit for foot fans- a barefoot swordswoman costume complete with sexy sarashi (bandage cloth) top, red hakamas and, of course, her bare feet! She stays barefoot for the remainder of the adventure, which is awesome.


Erza takes on her nemesis, Jellal, in her sexy barefoot Japanese-style swordswoman costume.


Here's a look at an unconscious Erza showing off an awesome sole shot. Too bad Erza doesn't actually finish off Jellal in the final battle, but she does save everyone at the end with an act of supreme self-sacrifice. Don't worry- somehow it all works out happily.

Erza KO'ed


Plus here's one more awesome clip of Erza in barefoot action. During the more recent Fighting Festival arc, she finds herself battling another wizardess called Evergreen. I'll let the the clip speak for itself, but suffice to say this should solidify Erza's position as THE barefoot warrior babe of Fairy Tail!


Erza truly is an awesome anime babe, and after you watch episodes of Fairy Tail you'll surely fall in love with this awesomely kick-ass, courageous but quirky and hilarious beauty. Any foot fans will surely be like the many admirers of Erza in the show (who fall in love with her after she stomps their butts with her sexy feet), to be among the throngs wishing to give her kisses and massages on her perfect soles and toes. If you haven't watched Fairy Tail yet, try it out. If only for Erza Scarlet, it's worth checking out!


Truly, Erza is one barefoot goddess you'll want to protect and pamper.

Clover's Toes (Totally Spies)

Gotta love such talented toes.

Here's a cool clip from the Totally Spies movie, with the lovely blonde Clover showing off just how flexible and limber her toes are. Thanks to KingSideCastle and Match25 at Anime Feet for letting me know about this short but sweet scene! You just can't beat such a great sole shot with awesome toe action! It's kinda funny though that this movie is pretty inconsistent- Clover's wearing boots at the start of the scene, but she loses them for some reason at the end. Not that I'm complaining though! Anyway, such a lovely scene and an amazing view of some cute, cute and kissable cartoon toes. Enjoy!


Clover Wiggles Toes

Juri Anime!

Okay! I was able to score a couple of choice excerpts from the Juri OVA- perhaps the best foot clips in the whole feature (though there are certainly lots). The anime is a bonus that you get from the Japanese and Asian Collector's Editions of Super Streetfighter IV. Included in the package is a download code that you use to access the feature on Xboxlive. These are from the Asian version, which is in english. Anyway, the OVA runs for about half an hour and focuses pretty much mainly on new SF villainess Juri Hani and her sound beatings of everyone she meets- from Chun-li to the Shadaloo Dolls to Guile and Cammy. Man, that chick is NASTY!

This is early in the show, where Juri is taking out a bunch of heavily-armed dudes. Of course automatic weapons and rocket launchers are no match for Juri's sexy-strong feet, as seen in the clip below...


Next up is perhaps the best foot clip in the whole OAV, with a nice panning up shot of Juri, with special focus on her sexy bare foot as she flexes her toes in anticipation of her next fight. Nice animation on those lovely purple-tipped digits, I have to say. I'm sure any foot fan will surely be wanting to reach out and give those toes a lick or two... heh...


All in all the anime is a pretty cool feature but it's very hard to get a hold of. Perhaps eventually it will be available online for streaming or download in full form. For now though, enjoy these clips of some hot, sexy TKD feet!

Miku Hatsune Figurine

Invasion of the Vocaloids!

I'm not too familiar with the popular Vocaloid series in Japan, aside from the fact that these cute anime girls appear as customization items for characters in Virtua Fighter 5R. Well, now there's this cool statue I found in an article over at Kotaku. It's a figurine for the music game character Miku Hatsune, and as you can plainly see, the gorgeous statue (which looks awesome already in any case) has the lovely anime lass barefoot, her delicate soles and toes hovering over the floor. It's quite a wonderful-looking piece, and if I saw it in stores, I'd probably spring for it. No word yet on when this hits, it's still a ways off I think. Anyway, it's a nice bit of distraction. Check out more pics of the figure over at Kotaku's gallery.

Cartoon Karate (Scooby Doo and the Samurai Sword)

Now THIS was a big and pleasant surprise. A viewer on my Youtube Channel informed me of the cool barefoot martial arts action in, of all places, a SCOOBY-DOO movie. The movie is Scooby Doo and the Samurai Sword, a direct-to-video release that sees the Mystery Inc. gang get involved with the shady dealings over at a martial arts tournament in Japan. Nicely enough, there are tons of scenes with characters wearing gis and barefoot, but of course it's all about the babes. The main barefoot babe is none other than resident beauty Daphne Blake, who in the past has usually been the lovable ditz... man, who ever thought she had super karate skills? Makes you wonder why she bothered running away from all those crooks in bad costumes when she could have kicked their asses with her surely-smooth but deadly feet!

Anyway, the movie has a couple of barefoot babes aside from Daphne herself- one is Miyumi, Daphne's friend who leads them into the tournament and mystery. Miyumi herself is a martial arts fighter herself, complete with Streetfighter-esque bandage wraps (I would have preferred she do without them though). There's also another barefoot fighter babe who sports a cool eyepatch (AND the bandages yet again), but she's not seen enough.

Surely the highlight of the movie is a fight between Daphne and Miyumi, which is probably that last thing I thought I'd ever see in anything with Scooby Doo attached to it. The fighting is actually pretty well-done with lots of cool moves and, of course, some nice sole shots (though mainly from Miyumi). Nice ending too, though I would have wanted an actual KO... heheh. Check out the vid below for a pretty awesome cartoon catfight!


Daphne vs Miyumi



Sapphire Sonya Kicks

Here's a look at Sapphire Sonya, one of the martial artists on the island where the mystery happens. She's got a cool vibe with the white hair and eyepatch, and she's definitely kick-ass and hot...


Sapphire Sonya Thrown

Unfortunately she's also out of the picture in less than a minute. Too bad, I wanted to see more of her, even as a villain. Waste of a cool kick-ass barefoot babe, I say. Oh well.

Anyway, as a whole the movie itself is quite fun, as recent Scooby Doo movies are. With all the barefoot fighting and action in it, it's sure to be something to keep in a footfan's collection. Later then!

Miu Furinji (History's Strongest Disciple Kenichi)

Beautiful, busty and brawling babe Miu Furinji.

Here's a nice anime-based fighting game to look for in the import menus. This is History's Strongest Disciple Kenichi, the one-on-one beat 'em up based on the anime/manga of the same name. This came out for the PS2 a few years ago, and is a pretty good fighter. It sports 3D, cel-shaded characters who look pretty accurately like their anime counterparts. As with most martial arts anime, the fighters sport lots of over-the-top attacks to deal out some punishment. Well, why did I post about it here? Well, there's a barefoot babe in the game of course, none other than the series' kick-ass main heroine herself, sometimes megane-beauty Miu Furinji. In the anime and manga, the beautiful and busty Miu is the daughter of a martial arts family who takes the geeky protagonist Kenichi under their wing to train and become a great fighter. Miu herself is a kick-ass fighter, and her skills translate wonderfully into the game.

Thought she wears shoes for the most part in the game, in one particular stage- the Furinji Dojo- Miu is always shown barefoot. We have Japanese tradition and martial arts etiquette to thank for that! Unfortunately only Miu and Kenichi follow this rule... all the other fighters in the game, including a couple of other females, don't respect the dojo and refuse to bare their feet in the stage. Too bad- it would have been awesome to see Freya's bare feet... oh well.

Anyway, Miu herself is an awesome babe, and here in this ryona vid we show off several sexy special attacks trained on our lovely heroine, leading to some nice views of her angelic soles. After all the ruckus is over, we imagine that Miu may appreciate a nice foot massage on her perfect peds after all the exercise. Enjoy!


Miu can take it as well as dish it out.

Juri Anime!

WOW! Super Streetfighter IV isn't even out yet, but already Taekwondo Mistress Juri Han is already slated to come out in resin statuette form care of Sota Toys, and now, she's also set to make an anime debut courtesy of world-renowned animation studio, GONZO! The kick-fighting vixen is the central character in an upcoming anime feature that has been exclusively made for release along with the Xbox360 version of Super Streetfighter IV. Here's the hot, action-packed trailer full of wickedly sexy barefoot dominatrix action.



Juri should be getting a LOT of screen time, as she takes on Chun-li, Guile and Cammy in various fights- so she's sure to show off a lot of her sexy, deadly feet. But as formidable and seemingly invincible Juri appears to be though, she's sure to get taken down eventually (surely anyone who sends Chun-li to the hospital is ultimately destined for righteous comeuppance). But I'm sure this is just the beginning for a long career of sexy barefoot butt-kicking for this killer Korean. The anime will debut along with the game in late April. For now, enjoy the trailer and dream of long, lethal, purple-tipped toes...

UPDATE: Here's the anime trailer with English dubbing, so you can all finally find out what the heck's everyone's saying. Heheh. The voice acting is fine- Juri's voice is pretty sexy- perhaps a bit too sexy. But what the heck. If you've got XboxLive, you can download the English SSFIV anime trailer free. For now though, enjoy!

Sakura Mutou (Fate/Unlimited Codes)

The diabolically powerful Sakura is one bloody hot barefoot babe.

Perhaps it's Fate that I seem to post babes who have something in common in succession... last time it was the blood-spattered barefoot assassin, Kaede Smith. Now it's the blood-powered Sakura Mutou from the PS2 fighting game, Fate/Unlimited Codes. The Fate series is of course a title that has appeared both in anime and game form, in many incarnations. In some of them, Sakura was a harmless non-combatant, the half-sister of main protagonist, Shiro. However in the fighting games she's an extremely powerful black sorceress. Too bad the game hasn't been translated but with all her blood-soaked powers and creepy attacks, we can't really see this barefoot hottie as anything but malignantly evil.

That said, she's also predictably quite fetching and lovely (burning veins of blood notwithstanding) as evil anime babes tend to be, and surely foot fans can look past her demonic tendencies and just focus on her perfect, sexy bare feet to worship. Most probably though if Sakura chooses to spare us from total destruction, we'll be forced to grovel before her in servitude, and be forced to spend our lingering existence kissing and massaging her thankfully blemish-free toes and soles. For foot fans, I guess, this shouldn't sound too bad... maybe.

Anyway, here are some cool vids showing off this bloody sexy barefoot anime babe in action. Fate/Unlimited Codes is available on the PS2 and on the PSP!

Here's a vid showing Sakura's Intros, Super Attack and Win Animation.

Kagura the Wind-user (Inu Yasha)

Inu Yasha's barefoot wind goddess steps into the spotlight.

Now this post is loooooong overdue, since surely, Kagura, the kimono-clad wind-user from Inu Yasha, is my absolute favorite barefoot anime babe. What's not to love? She's certainly a vision made perfectly for foot fans, with an elegant design that has her clothed almost totally in intricate, lavish kimonos, leaving only her delicious feet bare. Heck, the first you see of her are her hot, beautiful bare feet, walking tantalizingly towards the camera with sexy, soft-footed steps. And really, pretty much every time Kagura appears you're almost certain of sexy foot shots since the animators clearly love drawing Kagura's feet in wonderful closeups... I'd go as far as saying they're probably the most-seen, most photogenic feet in anime!

But her appeal extends far beyond simple her simple physical beauty- her personality is awesome; a strong, forceful and independent-minded woman. She's got awesome powers and she kicks butt, and her personal story is very engaging to follow. Sadly, she meets her end in the manga (a fate she will probably share in the anime if it is ever continued), but it was a gloriously poignant death scene, which surely gave the true wild spirit within a chance to be free.

Even though she goes everywhere barefoot, you can imagine that Kagura's feet are surely as flawless, soft, smooth and kissable as her stunning face. Foot fans will surely love this gorgeous barefoot vixen to pieces, and I myself will personally pleasure Kagura with long foot massages and warm kisses on each and every tasty toe and all over both her beautiful soles. What I'd give to be that damn giant feather she rests her feet on everytime she flies!

Anyway, with images of this Kagura dangling her feet teasingly before your face, enjoy this lengthy tribute video featuring pretty much all of Kagura's best foot scenes in the Inu Yasha anime.

Kagura, the barefoot goddess of winds, will always be in my dreams...

Misaki Yamamoto (Hatsukoi Limited)

Misaki Yamamoto in the Hatsukoi Limited manga.

Here's a very recent and EXCELLENT discovery I made. Hatsukoi Limited (translated as 'FIrst Love Limited' is a high school relationship comedy anime with some ecchi elements. It's based on a manga and is a pretty sweet, funny show with lots of incredibly cute girls. The hottest babe for me though is Misaki Yamamoto.

Episode 2 of the anime introduces Misaki to us in a pretty long sequence where she's barefoot the whole time. She pays a visit to her next-door neighbor Mamoru, crawling in through his window and proceeds to wreak havoc on the guys' libidos. The camera just LOVES this hottie, and every frame of her is pretty much a pin up-ready image. Aside from being stunningly gorgeous and effortlessly sexy, this easy-going semi-tomboy is smart, cool and she's an expert in SUBMISSION HOLDS. She's certainly fun to be around with and not one of those 'keep your hands off' girls. Certainly this wild beauty is a babe all of us foot fans would love to get down with, to worship her kissable feet, give her foot rubs and massages, or best of all, engage in some good-natured wrestling matches. I'd love to get jobbed by this beauty, and let her wrap her legs around my neck in a grapple, or put her foot on my chest in victory. Awesome! Anyway, enough gushing... check out the videos and get your Misaki fix now!

This first vid shows Misaki entering the picture like some barefoot goddess coming down to earth. Nice views of her soles and priceless reaction from lucky perv, Kusuda. Her shirt speaks for herself, heheh...

This scene has Misaki having a heart-to-heart with gentle thug Misao. Advice AND a submission hold... I love this girl.

And finally, here's the best scene for me, since it has a knockout. Kusuda demonstrates his weird 'talent' on an unsuspecting Misaki, rendering her unconscious (nice power!). Unfortunately for the guys though, even when out cold Misaki's not entirely defenseless. More sexy foot shots and sexy grapples from this awesome barefoot babe.

Hatsukoi Limited just started, and is set for 12 episodes. I'm not sure if there are more barefoot babe scenes as good though. However, this is a really entertaining and cool series that may be worth checking out regardless. Enjoy!
