History Main / SailorFuku

Sailor-suit uniforms may be a vehicle for FanService as well, as the uniform skirts are often depicted as being [[MagicSkirt unrealistically short]]. This alteration is so common that it is rarely commented on or questioned, though it may be off-putting to those who are not used anime or manga based media. Uniforms may be altered in other ways to [[NonuniformUniform distinguish certain characters]], [[CustomUniformOfSexy especially ones considered particularly beautiful]].

* In one episode of ''Series/BottleFairy'', the fairies, while imagining going to school, are all in sailor fuku... except for {{Cloudcuckoolander}} Hororo, who dresses up in the equivalent iconic uniform for kindergarten and elementary school. The others get her straightened out by the time "class" starts, though.

* Toune in ''MelodyOfOblivion'', who goes around fighting Monsters wearing ''seifuku''.

** In ''Tasogare no Udewa Densetsu'', one of the fetished-up outfits that Shugo discovers in a treasure chest is a seifuku.
** [[WordOfGod The character designer]] for the ''.hack//Another Birth'' novels has mentioned considering giving Akira a seifuku in the real world, but decided against it as they were overused, and gave her a less common blazer uniform.

** Haruhi, the local wholesome female cross-dresser, infiltrates an elementary school with a 17-year old male classmate named Honey. Honey dresses in his old elementary school uniform while Haruhi puts on a middle schoolers seifuku. The rest of the club admits that the two stick out anyway so the disguises are useless: they just wanted to see Haruhi in a schoolgirls uniform.

* ''SuzumiyaHaruhi'' revolves around a [[ClubPresident high-school club]], and thus, seifuku appear in abundance. In Volume 1 of the novels, Kyon [[LampshadeHanging wonders]] if the principal has a fetish for this since male students wear blazers and ties, but girls wear the more traditional sailor uniform.

* In one episode of ''Series/BottleFairy'', the fairies, while imagining going to school, are all in seifuku... except for {{Cloudcuckoolander}} Hororo, who dresses up in the equivalent iconic uniform for kindergarten and elementary school. The others get her straightened out by the time "class" starts, though.

* The seifuku's worn in ''{{Maria-sama Ga Miteru}}'' are an interesting variety, in that they have very long skirts and are generally not very flattering. In that, they may actually be [[TruthInTelevision more like the real thing]].

* The all-girl high school attended by Akira in ''AoiHana'', Fujigaya, has relatively realistically depicted seifukus, with skirts way below the knee.

* Sakura and Karin from the ''StreetFighter'' series both dress in ''seifuku''. It's so much a part of who Sakura is, that she wears it as her fight uniform in ''Street Fighter IV'', despite WordOfGod stating that she's over 20 now.

* Athena Asamiya from ''PsychoSoldier''. Her ''KingOfFighters'' incarnation was suppossed to fight in a ''seifuku'' but the [[WordOFGod creators]] thought that it would be "[[FetishFuel too risqué]]", and limited the outfit to her pre-fight animations. Years later, she actually fought in such outfit in ''SNK vs Capcom'' (Neo Geo Pocket version); and finally, in ''TheKingOfFighters XI'', ''XII'' and the upcoming ''XIII'' she actually fights using a school uniform... [[NotAllowedToGrowUp as late as it may seem]].

* Haruka Fukushima, author of the shojo manga ''CherryJuice'', admits in the omake that one of the main reasons she decided to make a high-school romance series was so that she would have the opportunity to draw SailorFuku.

* In 'Recettear', the strongest and most expensive clothes that can be purchased that playable (though the NPCs can be sold it as well, obviously) female characters can equip and be sold is a sailor uniform, whose description reads "Confers great power upon women of any age group." Though if male characters come in asking for clothes, you can sell them this also (though the playable male characters cannot equip it, which would make it funnier).

** This seems to be the uniform at the Mid-Childian school Harii Tribeccah goes to in ViVid.

* Katana, the girl Outsider in ''BatmanTheBraveAndTheBold'', wears a sailor suit.

* Emily Browning's character in ''Suckerpunch'' appears to do this.

* Surprsingly, StarTrekTheOriginalSeries. In the episode "Court Martial", a young girl is wearing a futuristic saulor fuku. Humorusly enough, it looks like something Sailor Mercury would wear.

* In the ''WhateleyUniverse'', Tennyo's school uniform is based on this design.
