Throwing this picture out like a bomb and disappearing wondering if I'll get fried for this one
I keep seeing people labelling reiwa gals as tsuyome and while I get where they're coming from, no, it doesn't work like that
//though I must say one thing, Ran does follow tsuyome and resembles the style, that's why I said "not entirely true"
^(Now I know, it sounds hypocritical since I'm pretty faceless myself and I take full responsibility for this, but I wanted to say something anyway. It isn't supposed to be a hate post towards all babygals or all gals who struggle with their make, I'm referring only to specific ones I saw a few times.)
Whenever I see those "how to larp as a gyaru" or "gyaru no's" or similar vids it's mostly ppl new to gyaru who do not know better or have better makeup skills than those who they dislike. And while everyone is entitled to their own opinion, I don't really think they're in any position to fully judge, police identities, try to push out or educate other gals. Gyaru is a very complex subculture, it takes years to study and understand, not all seasoned gals know it fully either. I'm not sure how to form it without sounding rude, but what makes you think you have a pedestal from which you can judge who's gal and who's not when you've been in the subculture for a few months top?
