The Adventures of Hot Chick: Barefoot Superheroine! (DC Universe Online)


She's fiery, powerful, fearless and shoeless! She's Hot Chick!

Massively-Multiplayer Online Role-playing games (MMORPGs) aren't usually a region of videogaming that I get into since I am very leery of pay-to-play subscriptions and often monotonous gameplay. But these games are also known for having cool customization options, including, of course, the option to have your sexy female avatars in skimpy outfits and bare feet (such as the recently posted Mabinogi Heroes). Well, here's one MMO that I have been able to get into, since (1) it was available on PS3 and (2) the price to play isn't that bad and I get 30 days of playtime free with my copy. The game is DC Universe Online, the online RPG that lets you create your own meta-human marvels and fight alongside/against the greatest heroes and villains of DC comics.


Hot Chick takes shape in DCU Online's awesome Character Creation feature.

As cool as having Batman call me up for help or have Wonder Woman give me the thumbs up, my main joy in DCU Online is, of course, to create my own, original barefoot superbabe to fly about and show off her skills AND her sexy soles. So without further ado, here's my first super creation in DCUO: The sizzlin' spitfire, Hot Chick!

24-year old Denise Strauss AKA Hot Chick was an on-the-rise swimsuit model and beach volleyball star athlete prior to her being showered with strange powers spread by the future Lex Luthor throughout the planet. One moment she was spiking a ball, the next she was wreathed in flame and passing out (from one hell of a sunstroke!). She wakes up later in Brainiac's ship, alone and disoriented.

The game always begins with your hero trapped in Brainiac's maze-like starship.

Brainiac's starship is a huge maze teeming with robot guards, but since it's the starter dungeon getting past the opposition shouldn't be any problem unless you really, really, really suck. Nicely enough you always have control over the camera, letting you get great views of your heroine's sexy soles (though close-ups are a bit hard). Whether she's flying, running about or kicking enemy butt, at least you'll always have something nice to look at. The character models' feet aren't that detailed, but they're nice enough and are very smoothly animated.

Sexy sole shots and hot views are easy to get with the controllable camera.

Anyway, soon after awakening in Brainiac's prison, the take-no-prisoners athlete in Denise came to the fore, and she quickly broke out of her prison, took stock of her situation, and soon was determined to make the best of her new powers and new life as Hot Chick, the fiery, sexy superheroine! Oh, and she gets a bit of a crush on Superman when she meets him (with those biceps, he must give great foot massages!). Hot Chick later found out that, along with her ability to control and project heat and flame, she could fly and was greatly resistant to any physical injury- which meant she didn't need to wear crappy boots or high heels... she can now go barefoot and be as free as she wished she could be- an eternal day at the beach!


Hot Chick's first adventure: Escape from Brainiac's Ship!

After breaking free from the alien prison, Hot Chick finds herself in a temporary safe haven... but her fate is uncertain. She's now just a lone wolf in a dangerous new world, teeming with other metahumans, both good and evil. Will she survive to become a truly awesome heroine? Will there be willing followers who'll give her soothing foot massages for her tired feet after a day's crimefighting? Well, at least one question has a ready answer- this sexy sun goddess will always have us foot fans to give her and her feet the worship they deserve. More adventures of this fiery babe to come. TO BE CONTINUED!


What lies in store for Hot Chick? Stay tuned for more!

Finally Got to Watch Tangled!


Adorably cute and beautiful, effortlessly hot, courageous, has perfect feet... Best. Disney Princess. Ever!

After many months of waiting, pining and more waiting, I finally got to see the movie Tangled. I saw it in a theater, in 3D, and certainly this is the best way to see it for the first time. I have to say, my being a foot fan aside, the movie is truly an adorable watch- This is easily one of the most beautiful animated films I've yet seen. The storytelling is modern, but make no mistake- this is not a pop-culture mash-up like the Shrek films- this is a classic Disney Fairy Tale, through and through. Rapunzel is a wonderful, gorgeous heroine that you can easily fall for the moment you see her, and you only love her a lot more as you watch her in her adventures. In terms of physical performance, personality, humor and drama, she's certainly the best Disney heroine in my book.
Okay, now to business. Yes, indeed, the lovely Rapunzel stays barefoot for pretty much the entire movie- you literally won't see her wearing shoes, apart from a pair of brushes strapped to her feet for cleaning the floor of the tower (worn for about a couple of seconds). From the moment you first see 18-year old Rapunzel, she's THE footfan's ultimate animated goddess.

While the movie's featurettes highlight the animation of her hair, really it's Rapunzel's FEET that have to be given due interest. Given how realistic and lifelike they are, you wonder how they developed animating them. They are surely the most lifelike, realistic and detailed bare feet EVER in an animated film. And thankfully, the movie does not try to hide Rapunzel's feet at all- you see them pretty much every time she's onscreen, and are without a doubt integral to her character- not since Disney's Tarzan have feet been so expressive and important to a character's personality.



I guess we have the movie's villain, Mother Gothel, to thank since apparently it's all part of her ploys to keep Rapunzel imprisoned that she never gave her any shoes- however, thankfully that didn't stop our barefoot heroine from stepping out of the tower to adventure.


Mother Gothel can apparently be thanked for Rapunzel's lack of footwear.

There are several highlight points throughout the film that are memorable for me. These include:The moment where Rapunzel first leaves the tower- the moment where she tip toes onto the grass and spreads her toes is magical, as well as the part where she rolls on the grass and steps into a stream. Towards the middle of the film, after a major action setpiece, Rapunzel confesses part of her past, leading to a gorgeous extreme closeup of her feet (with some nice toe movement) which will surely have footfans getting envious of a certain chameleon.


Wouldn't you love to be that grass right now?


The best, closest view in the movie and one darn lucky chameleon...

Tangled is truly a must-see, awesome film. Not just for footfans, but for movie fans in general. However, we will surely value this film's aesthetics more than most. I can't wait for the Blu-ray release... surely one film that's a MUST for the collection.

Fiona, Barefoot Adventurer! (Mabinogi Heroes/Vindictus)


Beautiful, bikini-clad, barefoot... and ready to fight!

Fantasy worlds are full of danger and death at every turn... but that's no problem for hot barefoot babes in bikinis, apparently! This is such the case with the lovely Fiona, one of the many gorgeous female adventurers in the Korean fantasy MMO Mabinogi Heroes. Like many MMORPGs, this game allows players to customize and outfit their characters to their heart's desire... even if that desire calls for as little clothing and no footwear at all. Right up our alley! Mabinogi Heros is cool thanks to the anime-esque art style and detailed character models (which makes World of Warcraft look positively kiddie), as well as sexy females to dress up and dungeon-crawl with. Sadly, this game is only on PC, which excludes me from playing it. However, I was able to find several videos from a player whose fashion sense is made to please us. So enjoy the four vids below chock full of hot barefoot bikini babe action!


Who needs armor? Bikinis do fine!


Who needs a Sword+5 when you have Perfect 10 feet?


There are more barefoot bikini babes here than in a Baywatch episode!


Nice detailed character models with lovely, fleshy soles are sure to please!


For such a ferocious warrior, Fiona has a radiantly sunny smile.

This game was pointed to me by avid reader and fellow footfan richfeet. Thanks! This is really a gem of a barefoot babe game. At least if you can't play it, we can enjoy watching it at least in the vids above (they're in HD as well!). Barefoot and Bikini Customization FTW! Heheh...

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.

Off-Topic: No Strings Attached Poster

As the post title says, this is a bit off-topic from my usual articles about virtual soles, but it's still about hot, deliciously sexy babe feet... in this case, the utterly lovely toes and soles of the gorgeous Natalie Portman. If you're a bit of a movie fan like me, you'll know that one of the upcoming movies with the former Padme Amidala is No Strings Attached, a sex comedy pairing Miss Portman with Ashton Kutcher. Now, our attention now goes to the sexy poster for this movie, which you can see just below. Of course, foot fans will surely notice the travesty that has occured here.


How DARE you cover those toes with offending type! BAD art director! BAD!!!

Yep- the poster's layout artist surely did the world of foot fandom wrong by allowing Natalie's feet to be covered up by the title text. What the hell was he thinking? "Gosh, I guess the title text can go over Natalie's feet- it's not like anyone would want to see them..." What an outrage! Hot, lovely toes lost forever by bad type placement. This was always on my mind whenever I saw the poster. I thought constantly, what a waste!

Thankfully though, today I went over to the trailer site and LO! I thought my eyes were deceiving me but it was true- there was now a new version of the poster, thankfully with the evil offending text finally placed away from Natalie's beautiful toes, setting them free for everyone to ogle and gaze at to their heart's content.


Better. Much better.

Perhaps a foot fan phoned the poster production house and alerted them to this mistake, or perhaps there was one well-placed who saw the affront and was able to have it remedied. Sadly, there are many, many bad early versions of the poster online, but for the ones who care (us), we can find the version that has us in mind. Now, whether this film turns to be a hit or a bomb, it really doesn't matter- at least the poster's already a big hit. Okay, back to blogging about virtual feet and soles then...

SCIV CASplay: Kitana vs Mileena (Mortal Kombat)


Kitana and Mileena done our way, thanks to Soulcalibur IV's Character Creation Mode!

The upcoming Mortal Kombat looks pretty slick, admittedly, with detailed characters, smooth animations, brutal attacks (although gimmicky with the X-ray schtick) and even bloodier fatalities than ever before. But really, blood and gore aren't really to my taste, and I don't need to see guts and organs exposed- just sexy, pretty ninja girl feet! Thanks to Soulcalibur IV's Character Creation mode, that's just what we get here in these hot fight vids: Two formidable and beautiful kunoichi battling to the finish, along the way shearing off clothing till only the bare essentials are left.
Dressed in blue is the lovely Princess of Outworld, Kitana, sporting precise and deadly skills concealed beneath a genteel surface. In purple is her fiercer, more violent clone, Mileena, a born killer with dual blades and feral lethality. Note that Mileena, being a more hardcore fighter, is barefoot by default so as to better allow her agility and speed to pounce (and of course, because it's damn sexy).
Sparks and clothing will fly in these knockdown, drag-out, striptease fights-to-the-finish! Which babe will end up the winner, and which will end up lying unconscious on the floor, her soles bared for all to see?

Well, check both vids out to see, and get ready to give the loser (or winner) the soothing worship and service on their tired toes and soles that they deserve. Enjoy!


Our Mileena lacks the beastly fangs and cannibalistic tendencies, but she's still bad-ass, hot and kinda creepy...


Our Kitana may not have her fans, but she retains the original's principle of hidden weaponry and lethal grace.

I'll have more SCIV CASplay videos up in the future. Which Mortal Kombat or other fighting game babes will next be featured? Stay tuned!

Misery (Onechanbara)


I didn't know Nightmare from Soul Calibur had a little sister...

The Onechanbara series from D3 Publisher of Japan is certainly quirky and weird, but there surely is something awesome about bikini-clad cowboy girls hacking zombies apart with a samurai sword. The unhinged-looking babe pictured above is the somewhat aptly-named Misery, often deadly Boss character in the games and occasional playable character. This mysterious cutie sports long white hair (a sure sign of being Eeh-vil in anime), demonic powers, a thirst for blood (Aya's and Saki's in particular), one of the nastiest-looking swords you'll ever see and, well, nicely enough, some conspicuously bare feet. Scary as her evil-filled eyes and prickly sword are, we can't help but have our eyes gravitate to her cute, little bare feet with their adorable black-painted toenails.
Hell, foot fans being the sort we are, we'll excuse Misery's occasional psychotic episodes and attempts to strike our heads from our shoulders (and elsewhere...) as long as she allows us the opportunity to calm her distress with a comforting, soothing foot massage. Perhaps giving her soles loving strokes and each toe gentle tugs and twists will lull her to a peaceful sleep and afterwards, a sunnier disposition. Or it may just cause her to just flay our skin from our bones. Hey, you never know till you try!

Players will get to play a bit with Misery, who's a playable character (and the only barefoot babe by default in the game) in the upcoming Onechanbara Special for the PSP. You can also encounter Misery in other Oneechanbara games on Xbox360 and Wii (though she's not always playable). For now, enjoy the scary but sexy art above!
