So... Two things:

1, as a black man I feel offended. And 2, does Jynx count as... whatever these things are?

My ex of a sorts could count as ganguro. She's fuckin' weaboo enough to be, so, might as well as far as I'm concerned.

I always imagined Jynx to be Mr. Popo's wife.

But yeah, Ganguro is a bit strange. Suppose it could be hot if her skin wasn't too dark, though.

I'm surprised ganguro survived from the 90's. Most of the time in anime or manga they come off as GALs or bitches, right?

Ganguro is a spin off Namie Amuro's fashion style, and a teenage rebellion counterculture. It has nothing to do with black people.

Oh....I did want to add that I did once see a JAV where they had 3 ganguro girls go up against 3 "white" girls and that was pretty awesome.

The "white" girls won though....typical.

BTW...the way they would "win" is to make the other girl come first.

The majority of the time in anime you'll find Kogals rather than Ganguro girls. Kogal fashion is still around as well - but sadly a lot of it's aspects have been crossed over into Ganguro territory nowadays as it's stayed more prominent while kogal has kind of slowly fizzled out. Though yeah, most of the ganguro girls in anime are usually two things; sluts and bitches. But, they usually have a secret good side to them, like the group in Super GALS who bothers the main characters from time to time but ends up helping them a lot as well.

Kogal can be cute as long as the girl doesn't have dyed/bleached hair and keeps her natural skin color and tone. The actual fashion is pretty good on some girls, especially in anime (biribiri's socks, for example, are from kogal fashion - all of super gals given it's a show about kogal culture, so much else), but in real life too.

Ganguro is just all bad though.

I like ganguro girls. More specifically, I like anything that stands out. Gothic lolitas too. How much ball do you have to have for a chick to walk down main street dressed like up like that? To be honest, I think countercultures are stupid as hell, so we probably couldn't hold a deep conversation, but still... you know...

Alright, wait, so what does JAV mean? I've seen it mentioned in some threads and stuff before, but I don't get what it stands for.
nevermind, googled it, I'm an idiot. Makes sense, don't know why I couldn't put that together.

I wouldn't date a girl who had her face like that. But I would have sex with her. I've seen a JAV where three girls like that are on one guy, it was pretty interesting. And actually got me thinking about it.
I see it as a little weird and hot at times, but not in the longrun.

The make up is too over the top, and I don't really like makeup to begin with, but the darker skin tone is kinda nice to see, especially in JAV where most girls are snow white.

It can be cute, that picture above is proof but if done wrong (usually in anime but there's that woman who overtanned herself in real life) it does have mild unfortunate implications or looks ugly as sin.

So all they do is toast themselves, bleach their hair, and wear striking makeup?

They're just breaking out of the norm in Japan and not caring about what other people think of it. Props to them for being so bold.

That's because the first are kogals, the second is ganguro. So it wasn't done wrong or right, it's an entirely different fashion - which was his point (showing kogal is better).
