    That is either the worst cut shirt I've ever seen, or the best cut shirt I've ever seen ...

    Ah, but does the pattern remain stagnant in motion?

    ...wait, what?

    How in the world are you meant to describe that Stan's Jacket effect in real words without sounding horribly backward and idiotic?

    Judging by the shadows on the shirt ... yes.

    And I think that's the first time I've ever heard someone use the word "stagnant" and not mentions a pond. 10 points to Rather Dashing.

    Looks fake, but I'd love one of those if it were real.

    Holy crap, I'm getting dizzy just looking at that thing! Does it come with a three foot pseudo-sombrero?

    I doubt the product itself is fake; the picture was probably just of a plain tank top with the patter superimposed over it to save time and money.

    Haha-- good trade. Three foot pseudo-sombrero for three one foot pseudo-sombreros. Much easier to match that way, multiple options and all.

    When I saw Stan in Chapter 4, it reminded me of Gankutsuou (an anime adaptation of The Count of Monte Cristo from several years ago). In that show, the characters’ clothes and hair were mostly covered with crazy patterns using the same effect as Stan’s jacket.

    It had been quite a while since I played the earlier games so I’d forgotten about how the pattern on Stan’s jacket behaved. It amused me to think that Stan already had clothes like that so many years ago!

    "His trademark is his checkered jacket whose pattern stays at the same place (in reference to the background) while he moves. Originally this was due to technical limitations but it has been continued in later games and has been a source of in-game jokes as well as a running gag."

    That's how, apparently.
