Dig Deeper into Kegadoru
Kegadoru is the object of the "kegacon" fetish. The word is a shortened form of what would literally translate to "injured idol," and a kegacon is one with a fetish for such injured and/or bandaged girls.

+10 to random skill.
Congratulations! Your random skill is now level 5!
I think I could take back having seen those extra images though <.<
I couldn't see tose extra images. Nothing showed. Judging by reactions, that might be a good thing.
@FoxxFireArt: I'm kind of surprised by the reactions, honestly-- I didn't think they were THAT bad o_O
Couldn't say, really. By the time I tried to look they aren't showing up when I open the NSFW portion.
Honestly, are they any worse then the outfits Madonna, Prince, or Elton John have worn in their careers?
(Just saw them through your image gallery. I don't see why everyone is so disturbed. They are a trifle bit 'odd', but I don't get why everyone is so bothered.)
i dont like that lady -_-
Taken from TV tropes:
A sarashi is a long, winding strip of cloth, usually thick cotton, wrapped tightly around the midriff up to the chest. Historically worn under kimono both by Samurai (to resist injury) and by women (for more "obvious" reasons, particularly in eras when a slim figure was considered fashionable) the sarashi's samurai associations have made them a near-universal symbol of toughness in Japan. While common in anime— delinquents (particularly in classic, older series) will often be seen wearing one under their coat or unbuttoned shirt as a visible cue as to their general level of bad-assery—this is a general Japanese cultural trope, often found in Real Life and applicable to women as well as to men. For female characters, however, a Sarashi may also serve as an accessory to a potentially boring outfit, as an aid to crossdressing, or simply as a means of breast support. In these cases the wrapping is usually pushed up a few inches to flatten the chest ( usually) and the irony inherent in using such a traditional symbol of masculinity to aid (or disguise) femininity may or may not be deliberately invoked. Of course, if it's a Samurai Woman, her having one of these on is a given.
In real life, it's more commonly used by pregnant ladies to support their backs.
Needless to say its cool, and I'm sure you would enjoy it, given your professed love of them.
