I remember when I served overseas in Japan, the first time a troop of oompa loompas jumped on subway I was on. At the time I was starting to worry that I’d been drugged… At the end of my 3 three’s in Nippon, I’ve come to accept that Japanese youth culture is on parity with their porn, television, and anime… over the top to try and get some sort of response out of a heavily desensitized people.

WOW!!! It’s like a “pierrot” from Mardi Grass! if they come to Brazil, everybody will laugh at them… Poor girls, they are very stranges and this fashion is really wierd!!! I saw a Video from Gwen Steffani… But i thought it was a custom… not for real life!!!
At least they are mildly individual, not plastic clones.
They are just expressing themselves.
Anyon who buys all their clothes from Miss Selfridges or Next and whatever you have abroad. Straightened or curled hair, usually extensions, inches and inches of make-up, lipgloss, false eyelashes, mini skirts, ugg boots, high heels. You dont look down on them and say their fashion is weird or crying for attention. They are all the same.
Harajuku is individual, obviously the fashion caught on the whole harajuku district dresses that way, but they would not turn up to a party, 2 people wearing the exact same outfit. They customize and even make their own stuff too.

i think that their fashion sense is amazing!!!
they arent afraid to show the world who they are!!!
Harajuku street fashions are amazing. I’m into them myself, although i’m into the more Visual Kei side, but it’s just away of expressing yourself. It’s better than them being thugs and causing trouble on the streets. Instead, they choose to dress up and show eachother their individuality and style. I’m all for it, and i think its the best thing since sliced bread. Sugoi desu yo! ><
Haha~ AND i can see a Bou cosplayer in the back. Haha~ i love Bou.

These people are not attention freaks.. They actually meet at Harajuku Bridge every Sunday, completely dressed up. They even sometimes hide their real names etc. Its just a day in a week they do this and usually these people are against the dominant old fashioned values of Japan for example they are against working in a company 24/7 for all of their lives ( which is very common in japan) so they switch from one part-time job to another…
If you go ahead and ask them many would reply they dont care about what others think.. They just like to dress up this way, they think its cute and thats why they are doing it…
So it has a deeper social meaning than what your incompetent commment indicates.

It’s funny that people say they are individuals who are going against the norm. It’s funny because they have created a new norm and are essentially copying everyone else who does it. So what started as new, now becomes this jaded clone-o-mat style of thinking and dressing.

I really don’t see anything wrong with these people. They all dress up only because they like it, not for attention or going against the norm.
It’s just clothes you morons.

One usually thinks something is grotesque, weird, deranged, when one is fearfull or is uncomfortable with something completly different from the normal comfort zone…
As a child its common and "OK" to play "dress-up", why do some feel disturbed by this when young adults are expressing a form of creativity and searching for some non-harmfull attention. Why is play seen as "bad" by some…? Would you try to laugh in a nasty way at a child who's looking for attention by dressing up? isn't it normal to play? even for the less young? (even my old cat loves to play… is that bad?)
