Elden Ring: Japanese Fans Share Their Ride-or-Die Fashion Souls Builds — "Lol, It Ends on a Mushroom"
「エルデンリングで愛用してた装備」日本のファンの反応—おしゃれ装備自慢、オチはきのこ
“Banished Knight set (the version with all the cloth).”
失地騎士(布が多い番)
On Elden Ring, Japanese players turned a "what gear did you actually main?" thread into a wholesome fashion-souls show-and-tell. The most-liked picks were the cloth Banished Knight set and Vagabond armor with a Greatsword for "peak adventurer vibes," while others swore by the Black Knife set for keeping a light-roll, mixed Cuckoo Knight helms onto Night's Cavalry bodies, and confessed to cosplaying Ranni on a grizzled old-man face. It all builds to the same punchline the video saves for last — the one drip choice that had everyone laughing.

Swap the gauntlets and greaves for the Scaled set and it's perfect.
それの手甲と足甲を鱗シリーズにすれば完璧よ
- @アルト_レイヴン👍 1
I mained the cloth Banished Knight head and chest with Scaled arms and legs.
失地騎士の布ありの頭と胴に鱗の腕と足を愛用してた
- @機械天使アンゲルス👍 13
Banished Knight set (cape on, no stole). Say what you want, I just love it.
失地騎士シリーズ(マント付きでストール無し) なんだかんだで好き

Vagabond armor with a Greatsword. Peak adventurer vibes.
放浪騎士にグレソ。圧倒的冒険者感
- @かり-y5g👍 14
Looks like the lead striker of some mercenary company.
どっかの傭兵団の切り込み隊長やってそう
- @Gell_or_Sound👍 2
I love how the light Vagabond armor gives off that on-a-journey feeling — it's got real Dark Souls 3 unnamed-knight energy.
放浪騎士(軽装)の旅してる感めっちゃ好き ダクソ3の無名騎士味を感じる
- @のむヨーグルト-c7k👍 0
Light Vagabond armor — it's got a leather waterskin and a skinning knife and other tools tucked on the back, so it really feels like you're traveling. I love it. Head's the bucket helm.
軽装の放浪騎士 背中に革の水筒や解体用のナイフなんかの道具が収まってて、旅してる感があって大好き。頭はバケツ
- @Nekko1229👍 1
I run the Vagabond set with a Heater Shield and the Iron Greatsword.
放浪騎士シリーズにヒーターシールドと鉄の大剣を持たせてるわ
- @hina-hina-hina👍 57
Black Knife set. It's light, so you get decent defense while still keeping a light-roll — which means it's peak, always has been.
黒き刃装備 軽いおかげである程度の防御力を持たせつつ軽量ローリングできる、つまりずっと神である
- @mmi-f7j👍 7
It also muffles your footsteps, so I mained it too! Plus it looks cool!
足音消す効果もあって私も愛用してました!あとかっこいい!
- @kani-h3w👍 0
The Black Knife Assassin was just right for my stat spread too.
黒き刃の刺客がステ振り的にもちょうどよかった
- @user-qkthuht👍 2
I wanted to dance gracefully amid the blood with a bleed Lordsworn's Sword and the Black Knife armor…
出血レディソードと黒き刃の鎧で血と共に華麗に、舞いたかった…
- @Liry-1010👍 47
I ran Night's Cavalry with just a Cuckoo Knight helm on top. Night's Cavalry is honestly so badass.
夜騎兵に頭だけ誓約騎士にしてたわ。夜騎兵はマジでかっけぇと思う。
- @MNB-e6e👍 2
I do the Berserk thing too — Night's Cavalry set with a Greatsword and Lion's Claw. The fluffy fur around the neck is special, you know? So stylish.
俺も夜騎兵セットにグレソ猛獅子斬でベルセルクしてるわ。いいよな首元のもふもふ感とか特別で。スタイリッシュだし
- @HARU15.928👍 2
Cuckoo Knight head and legs with a Death Knight chest and arms — that combo looked cool, so I used it.
誓約騎士の頭と脚、死の騎士の胴体と手の構成かっこよくて使ってた
- @じゅじゅん-i9v👍 1
Take the Night set and swap just the head for Maliketh's and it looks insanely cool.
夜シリーズの頭だけマリケスに変えるとクソかっこいい
- @ハリ湖の引きこもり👍 4
The Fingerprint chest is so good… that part that looks like a scarf is irresistible.
指跡の胴いいよね…あのマフラーみたいになってるのたまらん
- @ユウヤ-x9h👍 11
Mine was the Night Maiden set — the cat-ear-looking bit is cute, and I loved watching something that adorable steamroll demigods.
夜巫女だった、猫耳みたいなのが可愛いのとそんなのがデミゴッドを蹴散らしていくのを眺めて楽しんでた
- @七つ星.1👍 11
The Confessor look is handsome. It's squishy, but I don't care.
密使はイケメン。柔いけど気にしないのだ
- @hashigatomaraneya👍 6
I totally get maining gear that has no lore attached to it — and it's exactly those pieces that are versatile and fun to style. The set that made me go 'wait, I just GET this cool armor for free?!' was the full Crucible set. My character's short, so without a greatsword and shield it does feel a bit floppy, I'll admit.
物語がない装備を愛用するのぐう分かる、しかもそういう装備に限って汎用性が高くてオシャレしがいがある。 「こんなにカッコいい防具をそのまま貰っていいんですか!?」ってなったのは坩堝一式、身長が低いから大剣と盾も装備しないとなんかへにょへにょ感否めないけど。
- @アライアン👍 10
Gotta be the Samurai with the Land of Reeds set — fought the whole game with a Nagakiba.
やっぱ侍で葦の地セットよ装備は長刀でずっと戦ってたわ
- @taitya--n5827👍 5
Full Nox set with just an Alberich head was my go-to fit.
ノクス一式に頭だけアルベリッヒにするのがいつもの服装
- @always金欠👍 3
Lord Dane's hat plus the Exile armor is stupidly cool. Pair it with a light straight sword and the Sword of Night and Flame and it's super stylish.
ダンの帽子+流刑兵の鎧がバカかっこいいんだわ 軽量直剣銀バサにすれば超スタイリッシュ
- @キノキノも遊ばない-d6y👍 0
Mixing your own original combo is the way — Battlemage head, Hoslow's chest, and Cuckoo Knight arms and legs.
やっぱオリジナルに組み合わせるのが良いよな、戦鬼シリーズの頭にホスローの鎧、腕と足は狐牢の騎士で組んでた
- @LAKIA.👍 3
Knight set → Veteran's set with a bucket head → Lone Wolf Knight set. My gear just kept getting heavier and tankier.
騎士シリーズ→宿将シリーズにバケツヘッド→孤狼の騎士シリーズ だんだん重く硬くなる装備よ
- @音元👍 1
My character was a grizzled old man, and I still went hard on a full Ranni cosplay.
見た目おっさんでラニ様コスで頑張った
- @YS_handlename👍 0
I adventured wearing Roderika's hand-me-down red hood and a dress matching Latenna's, with a whole headcanon of 'we're besties forever, right?'
ローデリカのおさがりの赤ずきんと、ラーヤとおそろいのドレスを着て「私たちズッ友だよね」という脳内設定で冒険してたわ
- @moton357👍 2
Radahn's armor had great stats so I used it forever — and sometimes I'd throw on the Mushroom set in the rot swamps.
ラダーン防具が性能良くてずっと使ってた 時々腐敗沼でキノコ纏ってた
- @nanasino8828👍 21
Lol that it ends on the bamboo-shoot one.
最後たけのこなの笑う
- @shadow_of_yharnam-candle-z1x👍 4
Kind of looks like okra too.

There's a bamboo shoot sprouting at the very end lmao.

🎮 GamesGamesYouTubeFinal Fantasy VII Remake Part 3 Reveal: Japanese Fans React — "I'm So Hyped I'm Binging Every Reaction Video"
On the reveal of Final Fantasy VII Remake's third and final entry (called "Liberation" in the Japanese coverage), Japanese fans went fully euphoric. The top comments admit they're "too hyped to sit still" and binging every reaction video, then turn surprisingly reverent — deep respect that today's Square Enix rebuilt FF7 from scratch, and trust that they'll land it because Rebirth already proved they can. Threaded under all the excitement is a quieter, teary note about Cloud's gentler voice in the trailer, building to a closing wish that this team get to make every Final Fantasy from here on out.

🎮 GamesGamesYouTubeMonster Hunter — Japanese Fans React to Kushala Daora Hate: "Not Hating It Would Be the Weird Part"
On Monster Hunter, a Japanese video asked hunters point-blank whether they really hate Kushala Daora that much — and the answer was a cathartic pile-on. They blame the wind barrier that nullifies bowgun shots, the dragon wind-pressure that blocks melee, and the gut-punch that poison no longer cancels the wind, leaving "so what are we even supposed to do?" There's grudging love for a "reformed" version that finally fights fair, before a closing line lands the verdict.

🎮 GamesGamesYouTubePersona 4 Revival: Japanese Fans React to the New Info — "Please, Atlus, Give Us a Yosuke Route"
On Persona 4 Revival, Japanese fans pored over the new info drop and came away hyped and nostalgic. The top comments begged Atlus for a Yosuke romance route, clocked Social Link screens now showing P5-style Confidant abilities, gushed over Nanako being adorable and a Kanji-to-Naoto baton pass, and marveled that the voice actors still nail these roles years later. Even the Velvet Room cameo got a callback — and the thread closed on the most Persona 4 line of all.

🎮 GamesGamesYouTubeResident Evil Code: Veronica Remake: Japanese Fans React — "We Finally Get to Play AS Chris"
On the Resident Evil Code: Veronica remake trailer, longtime Japanese fans went deep on the details — pointing out that this is somehow the first RE-engine game where you actually play AS Chris Redfield, and waiting "since RE5" for him to lead a game again. From there the thread rolled through speculation that the original opening may get relocated to mid-game, Chris's noticeably beefier build (before he 'gorilla'-fies), hype for Claire's escape and Chris's cliff-climb, a long tug-of-war over whether Steve Burnside finally gets a happy ending or stays canon-tragic, plus HUNK and Wesker theories tied to Rockfort Island. The mood: knowledgeable, hyped, and gleefully nitpicky — capped by a landlady's line about Chris's trashed apartment that fans couldn't stop quoting.
