It's almost as if you can't understand a person by putting them into a neat little stereotype. Galko is a pure girl who can't even say "womb'. I bet she dreams of a romance straight from shojo manga too. [lol]

Not normally this much of a difference, I am starting to think that she is a natural blonde and everyone else is just assuming that she is one.

She does seem to care what her friends think about her looks and such, that might be her only thing consistent with the style.

That's not the reason behind it (although I do think she's a natural blonde), but I shouldn't spoil.

Okay, I have to set things clear here about my statement.

I wasn't showing my surprise at Galko having such a dream. I was just showing my surprise at it being a dream for any teenaged girl who isn't from an ultra conservative family.

Maybe she is from an ultra-conservative family, you don't know.

Hmm so aside from Galko in this, Mimi in Digimon, and Ai in Persona 4 what other Gyaru are out there in the Japanese media? They are kinda rare I think.

[up][up] Hmm, if anything else, her house is pretty damn huge.

Huge house yeah but also western in design which implies at least part foreigner.

If what I heard is correct, she's just an ordinary Japanese girl (albeit with very large breasts) who dyed her hair blond. I don't have a source, so don't quote me on that.

Unfortunately I could only find like three chapters in english so it's hard to check.

Maybe Galko WILL make a pretty good mother. evil grin

Not much context is needed, but basically Galko got so hot and bothered (while eating especially hot curry) so she opened her shirt a bit, which made a crying baby quiet down.

Why? Well...you know. evil grin

There was last year's Wakaba Girl which was all about a rich girl who wanted to become a gyaru, though she had some strange ideas of what that entailed.

[up]x5 so then she is a real Gyaru if she dyed her hair like that.

Man she just seems so off for the type. I mean she isn't super peer conscious and certainly isn't the original 70s tag line for Gyaru 'can't live without men'. She is popular and a bit of a rebel so I guess that is enough for her.

So I'm forced to spoil—well, it isn't that much of a spoiler.

My reading is that Galko is influenced by her older sister, who is probably closer to a real Gyaru (now works as a model while being a college student), and all the foreign movies she watches. I haven't noticed anything about her family being conservative or not. The said sister has a stable boyfriend who seems to have a school-uniform fetish.

I'm not quite sure if I would describe the sound you make when the masseur hit your tender point "moan," nor would anyone have areolas as big as a wheel.

We have more Ojou this episode, but she looks completely out of it.

This certainly is interesting, but...

Does a 7-8 minute anime really need an OP over a minute long every episode?

Ojo seems to be good with her hands.

Galko really has everything just in case... well almost. And she will lend it to everyone. What a nice girl, no wonder everyone likes her.

It dawns on me that Otako is a bit of a cunt.

What Galko brought this ep:

  • throat candy in the bags
  • Band-Aid
  • disposable chopsticks
  • hair straightener (plus leave-in conditioner)
  • sewing kit
  • eyepatches
But not a pad?

[up][up][up] Same opinion, really we need a opening and a ending?.

[up] What is a pad? I don´t understand all english words.

You know Feminine Hygiene Products. Galko probably only carries Tampons.[lol]

You know since the Japanese Wasei Eigo word for pad is 'napkin', that has a chance to be a really awkward convo if say a Japanese waiter was trying to understand what a person who only spoke English was asking for.

My reading of the first skit of episode 2 seems to indicate she's a pad user, since she feels too embarrassed to put a tampon in.

Poor, poor Galko-chan... To have her sis use her uniform like that...

The mall test - or more like the boy's reaction to her shopping trip - was also quite funny

OK, I apologize for mis-romanizing the boys. They are actually Charao, Otao and Sport-o.
