If you see him everywhere means your everywhere

[@Modie]

To be honest, I made a deal with myself: If they get together at the end of the season at least I will check out the manga. Otherwise, I won't because there would be no point. Gojo had his character development. He not only saw that there are other things that can be fun but found value in them and was able to not only see someone else's problems but talk to them about it before they did. But Marin just doesn't have character development, because she has no character flaw. Everytime you think they might be introducing a character flaw, like when she forces herself on JuJu to cosplay together, it never goes anywhere and is portrayed in the complete opposite direction. The problem is that Gojo has had his character development and Marin can't have character development unless they get together and face new challenges. If they don't by the end of the season, I know that the author is just milking it with as many cosplay costumes as possible instead of actually having a plan for future developments.

[@Gemnist98]

Personality-wise, she’s flawless. My main problem with Marin as a character, though, is that we don’t really see things from her perspective - her own flaws and insecurities - the way we do Gojo. There’s her inability to do handiwork and her lack of parental figures, but that’s a surface-level fault that doesn’t really inspire a character arc. It makes her come off very manic pixie dream girl-like. I would love it if other perspectives besides Gojo were shown more often, like Marin’s main friend group for example.

[@brianstryker4536]

In the manga you start to see some of that more often, but yeah I hope the creator slowly started diving into Marin more deeply.

It’s unfortunately that(uneven development) seems to be a defining characteristic of shounen romance. (Horimiya had the same problem despite Hori being the perspective character)

[@SpiralsAreAlive]

I think that maybe her lack of a parental figure gives her less of a ideal of some basic norms, like “hey asking someone to sew a whole intricate cosplay in two weeks is not totally reasonable.” She learns quickly to understand Gojo’s subliminal messages about what he needs or feels, but yeah test 1 her expectations are a little out there for people if they don’t make the first move, or in the case of Gojo, he was kinda aggressive about his hobby (critiquing her attempt at sewing) once, so she thinks “he can handle me being super forward, outgoing, and kinda in his face”

I really like how you depicted My Dress Up Darling and the craft holds value. I am a seamstress, so everything mentioned was on par. It was so cool seeing a legit sewing machine running in an anime. As I too related to Gojo, but in the means of a out dated craft. Every sewing event I take part in, i am the only one under 50 yrs old. (in my late 20s lol). It being a topic starter in my age group is more like an talent. I really hope Dress up darling can inspire people to get into sewing. And what better way to show the enjoyment of the craft and become your own cosplay makers. The ecchi was basically part of the job in real life, which I liked how that was natural. There are many reasons why to watch Dress Up Darling. That said i relate to the marlin too, I am not afraid to tell people my hobbies and roll with it if someone thinks it's weird. I feel Gojo is not your typical male lead because he has a talent. Many male leads in anime don't have much other than the will and resolve (which is the best), but to this extent, it was simply amazing. He had something to offer and he took her hobby seriously, seeing it as her hobby not a hobby she took part in. As he watched and played the anime games (in his own sweet way of course) until the very end. How she respected his ability of modesty that the white demon cosplay showed to much skin. To place that reasoning in there, was just another appreciation to the craft itself. I have a good feeling that My Dress Up Darling is already inspiring people to get sewing machines and threads. I just want to say that you may need to start with squre quilt patterns before you get to making clothes. I just say that so people don't get discouraged. I believe in you. I really love everything about this show. As a female anime watcher (gender appeal) it's hard to find a true gentleman. I really like how Gojo was your honest and modest guy. A real man with respect for the lady. "Gojo is a catch" as you said. Amazing! Sorry for the typos and the long comment. I just cannot help myself. I know I am not alone there. Lol

[@balazsdusek]

As a cosplayer, this anime brought back some core memories. I teared up and cried so many times just because that dynamic reminds me so much of the journey I've been through. I honestly don't think there'll be something more relatable to me and I appreciate every second of it.

[@restinginn9906]

I just finished the first season. Man. It's so god damn wholesome with a hint of ecchi, and great comedy. I never thought I'd like slice of life, but I gave this show a chance and ended up loving it. The writing must have been translated super well because they even use modern day phrases like "That was totally bomb", "For real", and "My dude". You just don't see that kind of dialogue happening in other anime shows and it makes it feel like the characters are having a real conversation between young people.

[@Chriseh]

I remember a boy in my class back in 2008 during an assignment to make a Dreamweaver website (any Britbong with a GCSE is quivering) decided to make it on Soul Eater, the anime he was watching at the time and when it came to presenting it, everyone just laughed and thought he was weird. Probably because most of them (including me) had never even seen or heard of Anime before. His only group of friends just made him the butt of every joke and tried their best to not hang around with him as much as possible, so you know, the kind of friends who aren't actually your friends and share no real interests with you. A number of years later I was seeing a girl who forced me to watch Spirited Away with her and I was in awe of how hooked I was on the characters and the world that it had built in such a short amount of time. Never had that from a movie or TV series before. Now since I have become a reclusive anime fan who enjoys RPG games too much. I haven't spoken to the guy in my year in a long time as he was living with his very old grandparent who when passed meant he had to go into Foster care as he wasn't old enough. Now that I share those interests I wish I had been more of a friend to him. I now realise that its not weird, its the only medium where I feel I can get truly engrossed in the characters and the world, he probably felt the same and we ostracized him for it in the years where you should be living your life to the fullest, care free ability. I remember speaking to him a few times before he left and he was a really chill dude, its just people thought he was super weird. I just wish I had been an actual friend to him instead of what the others were. I hope he found a real group of people who love and appreciate him and that one day we can catchup and share our appreciation for the medium of Anime and laugh at how dogshit our community school was. Because we robbed him of that during the most important years of his life and it can't be taken back. Sorry for the long read if anyone actually chooses to, this anime (and Gigguk's video naturally) brought up a memory and a feeling I hadn't thought of in a very long time and I felt like sharing!

Middle and high school still sucked mega-balls for other reasons, but I never felt like my fondness for anime was one of them.

[@Modie]

What does she have as a character? Serious question, because to me, she is literally the embodiment of creating a perfect character without any character flaw. Everytime you think there might be a flaw introduced they don't follow up on that or portray it in the opposite way.

[@AM-ko4pi]

@@Modie she’s rather ignorant of her effect on Gojou, she’s shallow and doesn’t think too deeply on her thoughts, and while she’s honest with herself, she’s dishonest in her interaction with Gojou. It’s a story about two very inexperienced characters who’re growing together and, through their intertwined real-world passions, are growing closer as a result. I know that sounds deeper than it appears, but I really believe she’s a deeper character than the mirage of her perkiness lets on. Like how she answers her door without a bra and gets embarrassed when she realizes Gojou is seeing her without her red contacts. She only realizes after half the day passes and she assumes Gojou didn’t notice, but he clearly did. Her priorities are messed up and it’s due to her immaturity. Which is normal, she’s still growing up, but that’s the point. She’s learning as much as Gojou is, who never had a friend before.

[@Modie]

@@AM-ko4pi As far as the story showed, she does know what effect she has on Gojo. I mean, she didn't show him her lingerie when they were buying stuff for her cosplay because she wanted a second opinion. Now, is that teasing a character flaw? Maybe, but as with all of her potential flaws, it's never portrayed in that way. While it makes Gojo uncomfortable, the series never portrays it in a bad way since Gojo always has fun at the end of the day even when being teased. How is she shallow when she is supposed to be deep? Not deeply thinking about her thoughts: Again, could be a character flaw if they would actually do something with, but they don't. In fact, it's portrayed in a positive light as part of her passion. How is she dishonest in her interaction with Gojo? She never lies to him except when it comes to her being in love (though that's less lying and more just not saying). However, again, this part is never shown in more depth to us. We see hear her inner thoughts. There is never a conflict where she asks herself if she should confess or not. She just doesn't do it, but as far as it's shown, it's not because there is a clear reason behind it that she would need to overcome. The only real time she lied was when she was jealous for all about 10 seconds which was mostly to show her pouting, but again, like so often, it doesn't go anywhere. She isn't really angry at either Gojo or Shinju and their interactions afterwards doesn't change because of her being jealous, meaning, it's not really part of the character. The only thing being remotely a character flaw is that her priorities are a bit messed up (like with the contacts). Though, even that is kind of stretching it, because it never has a negative impact on her life. Apart from her being in her pajama when opening the door, watching anime all night for example didn't result in anything bad. In fact, she is actually quite responsible, getting a job to finance her hobby and not getting into debt or just asking her parents. Not to mention that the first episode showed that she is not just leaving behind her responsibilities for her own amusement like others do. Again, I think there is potential for character flaws, but the show at least never goes through with any of them and makes sure through presentation that these aren't flaws to begin with. There is never a negative thing happening from whatever Marin does and she is the one changing the people around her, not the other way around.

Most of the time romance in anime comes out of nowhere, and sometimes it doesnt make much sense what makes that girl falls for that guy while having not much in common. Here it makes sense, she has a passion for cosplay and discover a boy who's passionate about making clothes and sees in him a partner with which she can share her passion. This is done right.

[@naruyaha1308]

@@CrispBaker have any recs for this kind of story?

[@CrispBaker]

@@naruyaha1308 the first one I ran across was Yancha Gal no Anjou-san, like I said. Somewhat similar heroine, main male character is a more traditional nerdy guy than Gojo. The biggest difference is that it quickly goes beyond the two of them to the people around then (so more like Horimiya), and that Anjou makes her interest known from the get-go. The conflict is more that he can't accept that anybody would be interested in him, so he can't emotionally handle the relationship. (Bit like Nagatoro but without the bullying element.) It's good, though kind of aimless, but it's carried by the art. The art is unreal. Other one that I could point to is "doujima won't be disturbed" which is entirely from the POV of a gyaru type girl that's trying to tease and bully this one guy (that she's clearly into in a way that everybody else understands but her), but he's completely unflappable. Story is largely about her realizing why she doggedly keeps trying to get one over on him, and how his quiet patience is basically an "as you wish" princess bride kind of situation. It's done now, and I think it worked out pretty well. (There's also one called gal gohan that's about cooking in the same way that this is about cosplay....but the male lead is her teacher. Bailed out, too squick for me.)

Yes. what makes most anime romances fail is that the most important part, the relationship, is ignored. far too often they forget to show the audience how and why the two character work together to bring out the best in themselves.... or as I like to call it, give the main character a personality please. what I mean is, in komi can't communicate, ANYONE could have been tadano, while you would really have to push to find someone that could fill the shoes of Gojou.

In the past, I've enjoyed fanservice anime despite the horny moments. This is the first anime where I've not only enjoyed the fanservice moments, but thought they added a lot to the show. 10/10 Marin is my first and only best girl and she deserves everything good and wonderful in this life

[@soysource3218]

I hate that all those MAL reviewers are dunking on Dress up Darling because it's just a show for fanservice and nothing more. These characters are written so realistically despite Marin's unikely premise. 9/10 thoroughly enjoyed the show and would lurve season 2.

Damn, Gigguk is trying to explain why is waifu is important in weeb's life. I truly support that movement...

[@jelanibyrd5031]

Even if it’s not intentional, it’s still really cute that Grant’s favorite waifu is so similar to his actual fiancé.

[@memegito_1]

1:10 Wow I didn’t know Gigguk was a fan of Sydney’s granddaughter. What time to be alive.

" Who decided that you can't be happy and horny " made my day 😂😂🤣

4:20 nice pick up line at a nice time stamp

[@Just_Some_Guy_with_a_Mustache]

When we've memed so much about Hime's secret being the worst kept secret, even totally-not-her-fiancee gets in on it...

[@sethkains]

When Marin was crying about the miscommunication. Is when I realized that this was something special. Unlike anything I've seen before. So I totally agree that she is best girl, for 2022 and the foreseeable future.

[@ElWeebDelBarri]

I got pretty emotional on the last part of the video, i'm so happy for you gigguk. I somewhat recently found someone with we can really be ourselves for the for the time, and it's a wonderful feeling.

[@OMartinez91]

What I love about Marin is that she feels "alive". What I mean is she feels like a real person because of how expressive she is in a way that feels believable

[@6dm978]

What about her expressiveness is so different? She’s just as expressive as other characters; the only difference is that she shows different exaggerated emotions than some other ones (such as extreme love rather than extreme jealousy) The way she’s portrayed as a character isn’t terribly different otherwise. I feel like you might be feeling this “real”ness just because she’s not exactly a generic stereotype tsundere or something.

[@CistudeSuisse]

Can we just appreciate Gojô too ? He is so caring, doing his best each time for Marin. And can we appreciate their balanced relationships ? It is so refreshing and wholesome ! 💚

[@notationmusical]

I'm so happy Gojo gets more of his development.
