Are gyaru underrated?

Yuzu is also a degenerate who reads incestuous yuri manga. Hard incest—not the inseki she has with her stepsister. It is hot that she gets off on Mei being her sister, though. Either way, I don't think Marin is any less of a gyaru just because she also happens to be a hardcore otaku. The two things aren't mutually exclusive.

Yes. More anime/manga need Gyaru in them.
Any recommendations btw? I finished food court and am desperate for more gyarus

the current "gyaru are actually nice sometimes!" trend feels like a direct response to a "gyaru are nasty judgemental whores" trend that I don't remember ever happening

Are you living under a fucking rock?

anon, that's just a woman
nice girls are a fantasy though, I agree

i mean like i don't remember reading any manga named "gals are very mean to otaku" or "hokkaido gals are super bitchy."

Aside from the millions of series where the popular girl is secretly some evil bitch?

aren't gals just as much social outcasts since their entire fashion trend was meant to be counter-culture to the whole "prim and proper dresscode" and took inspiration from flashy california beach blondes?

Those are just stylish girls, another depiction of "out of your league girl" but previously it was a class rep or so. Where are bitchy gyaru?
>>
>>288212269
Gyarus before the current nice gyaru trend were often portrayed as delinquents and bullies.

Reminder that gal culture started out as an edgy counterculture movement against traditional Japanese standards for women
>>
post more gyaru mangas recommendations
>>
>>288210259
When you think about it, Marin is a gyaru who doesn't act like a gyaru and allegedly a fan of anime except she never actually talks about anime.
>>
>>288210259
>Are gyaru underrated?
I think they're starting to get overrated these days
>>
>>288213595
Sure, why not. Here's a couple I like.

>Otaku x Gal
Sono Bisque ripoff but with full on otaku hobbies instead of Hina Dolls. MC uses his gunplay painting, wig making and anime recipes/interests to get close to girls. It's nice that it's kinda like Sono Bisque where the MC isn't a loser with nothing going for him, but that his hobbies mesh well with the girls.

>Nanjou-san Wants to be Held
Ecchi romcom about a slut who tries to pressure a nerd who rejected her advances to fuck her. Leads to them dating and them starting to get serious about each other. Actual relationship progress occurs while both characters grow.

We need bitchy gyaru representation but with actual MC, not some self-insert good guy
>>
>>288215803
>i want the MC to be a bitter and unlikeable piece of shit so i can relate to him
>>
>>288215840
No, I want a believable reason why 2 people from different social circles met each other, and what they find in each other that moved them into a romantic way. Both characters should be interesting. Self-insert slop removes any characterization from the MC
>>
>>288215907
You just want a different type of self insert that appeals to you.
>>
>>288210259
I haven't seen a classic widely recognized anime with a memorable gyaru as one of the MCs yet. Definitely uncharted territory and very difficult to pull off too since gyarus are only found in the modern era which is already a severe restriction for creativity
>>
>>288214337
Probably expectations, my dude. They were expecting unsustainable numbers/growth in the future but it didn't come true. And so they declared these outcomes as failures. S.M.H....

Multigenerational time travel story with sukeban grandma, gyaru mom and jimiko daughter
>>
>>288212500
I have no idea what they even want. If she's the this bitchy mean girl she's villainized, if she's nice at all then she's still villainized.
>>
>>288210259
When are we getting a Gyaru-oh chad protag?
>>
>>288217730
Never. Only state-mandated herbivore beta self-inserts are allowed, even if the author would be willing the editor is going to shoot it down.
>>
>>288210259
Gyaru usually means the male MC has the personality of a blank cardboard cutout
Im not asking the male MC to be a gigachad with Chad tier ambition and success and 6 pack but a normal guy with his own interests and likes and dislikes and even a basic personality is infinitely better
For fucks sake make them and actual otaku instead of "shy guy who is meek" """""otaku"""""
>>
>>288217792
They might reference a show that the otaku likes a few times, while not putting enough effort in to actually make the in-universe show fleshed out.
>have two otaku who allegedly are fans of the show talk about it
>they call characters, "the protagonist" or "the villain" instead of by name
>>
>>288210259

- she has supernatural powers and is locked in the body of a tiny woman by an organization that controls her

You know when I look at hentai typically gyaru-oh are depicted as this muscular/ rugged looking guy like stereotypical western chad. But irl that's not how they look like.
