Summary
"Telestina - First Design part 2. Since it seemed she would have plenty of opportunities to pilot powered suits, I designed her outfit as something easy to move in based on a life guard suit or a racing swimsuit. (Continued from above) By the way, another reason I went this route with her design initially was an attempt to avoid falling into set design patterns which seems to be the fate of moe art. In the end, the rough seen below was used for the anime version of Railgun, but the general ideas of the current rejected design were surreptitiously used for the Index character Misaka Worst." ―Kiyotaka Haimura
