For the new volume I decided to redesign Momiji´ s costume a little. The changes are not really too drastic, except for the straps I tried to make based on BDSM style. The older version had the design of a backpack, but I wasn´ t satisfied with the overall look.
The mesh on her arms are now jointed to those armbands that also are connected with her shoulder pads. I feel the now look more practical and justified than in the original version. I think I was thinking on cosplay while planning the new design by giving it more sense to that area in particular.
She will still use her mask like in volume 1, I just think she looks cute with her face uncovered.
