Yes I know that Kuranosuke is a GUY and I know that he isn’t real… but his outfits are too kawaiiii!!
After watching the first episode of Kuragehime (Princess Jellyfish) I fell in love with Kuranosuke’s sense of style when dressing as a gal. He is often decked out in elaborate Shibuya-style outfits that are adorned with accessories and topped off with wigs, bright leggings/opaque tights and shorts/miniskirts. Personally, I love his outfit from episode one the most so far.
Kuragehime has really touched a soft spot in my heart. It kind of reminds me of Higashi no Eden, Eden of the East, in regards to the music, the animation and the references to otaku culture and NEETs. I also see resemblances to N.H.K. ni Yōkoso!, Welcome to the N.H.K.! in regards to the peppy opening and closing songs and both anime touch on subjects related to the personal lives of otaku and NEETs. A comment I read in one blog pretty much summed up episode one,
” this episode was full of win. very original and refreshing. one of the best in the season so far :]“.
I’ve only watched three episodes but I know that as soon as Kuragehime comes out on blu-ray, I’ll be in Best Buy picking up my pre-ordered copy! I must study Kuranosuke’s style further!!!
If you can’t wait for Kuragehime to come out for sale, check out Funimation’s channel on You Tube to watch it subbed! Fantastic! Thanks Funimation!
For a more in depth information about Kuragehime the anime, read tehnominator’s excellent review at MyAnimeList.
Fabulous diamond studded pink bow belt and cute white leopard print shorts!
Bold colored tights, a nice thick wig and a warm cuddly turtleneck!
The brown cowboy boots really set off Kuranosuke's gal look
The following images are screenshots from Funimation’s You Tube episode of Kuranosuke. I do not own them but use them for purposes of illustrating Kuranosuke’s style! <3
