Magical Skirt in EBF5.
The Magical Skirt is a female armor found in Epic Battle Fantasy 5. Its hat counterpart is the Slime Bunny.
Description[]
The Magical Skirt is a lacy dress that changes color depending on who wears it; green for Anna and pink for Natalie. All the edges have flounces, the belt has a buckle shaped like a heart, and the boots have two bows. It comes with a pair of detached sleeves that cover most of the wearer's arms, as well as an opening over the chest that shows some cleavage if Natalie wears it. If the Cleavage option is disabled, Natalie's version of the Magical Skirt covers the opening with a piece of light pink fabric with lacy white edges.
Normal[]
The Magical Skirt is essentially the latest model of the Whitemage Dress from EBF3 and 4. It provides moderate Defence and Magic Defence boosts, as well as a modest HP boost to make its wearer more generally durable. It randomly applies Lovable to redirect attacks away from its wearer and also boosts non-elemental skills, like Star Shower and Shredder.
What makes the Magical Skirt useful is the ability to automatically summon a Slime Bunny; it applies five stacks of Regen to the party, sharply improving their durability by allowing them to heal off anything short of lethal damage. While the summon's trigger chance isn't particularly high, it can activate frequently enough to maintain Regen with decent consistency (even more so with Sharpen support).
Overall, while the Magical Skirt has mildly underwhelming stats and no elemental resistances (although it has a diverse set of status resistances), it has a useful auto-skill that greatly improves the defenses of the party as a whole.
The Magical Skirt provides resistance to Poison, Virus, Curse, Bad Luck, Death, and Doom. All of these become an immunity at Level 5.

Equip Remix[]
The Alt Magical Skirt has slightly mediocre Defence and Magic Defence, but it also provides a small boost to all other stats; it's somewhat notable as one of only two female armors to increase all of the wearer's stats (along with the Alt Spider Gown). It empowers healing skills and Holy attacks, and it has a decent chance to summon a Cutie Worm between turns, which can clear the party of neutral status effects like Dry or Heavy.
The Alt Magical Skirt is statistically superior to the Alt Nurse Uniform, with better Accuracy/Evade and identical stats otherwise; however, its Cutie Worm summon is generally less useful than the Alt Nurse Uniform's Medipack auto-skill, and it boost Holy attacks instead of healing/buff items. Offensively, it's bulkier than the Alt Ninja Skirt and more powerful than the Alt Pope Dress, but lacks some of their additional effects and elemental resistances.
The Alt Magical Skirt resists Dark, Curse, Bad Luck, Death, and Doom. All but the first become an immunity at Level 5.
Epic Battle Fantasy 5[]
The Magical Skirt is found inside a chest in Rainbow River, one screen east of the Slime Cat. The chest is behind a coral block, which requires a Coral Key to be unlocked; it's also guarded by a battle that appears as a Lime Squid.

Trivia[]
- The "Cleavage off" version of the Magical Skirt has a slight graphical bug when the "Anti-Aliasing" option is set to a lower setting; the extra piece of fabric on Natalie's chest doesn't quite sync to her idle animation, appearing to "twitch" slightly as a result.
