Is Lolita Fashion Dying LWLN 12 31 2017

[@coldinmyprofessions1806]

Is lolita dying? Do I care? I will die with it. You will have to rip Angelic Pretty straight out of my cold, dead hands.

[@TylerWillis]

Lol! Right, "...dying alone in my apartment in (an Angelic Pretty) dress..." Sorry Momoko, AP is life.

[@m4lfine]

ok this is an old comment but I love ur username

[@ladyhrist]

Personally I think your title rolls more neatly off the tongue than "What Are Market Trends In Lolita Fashion, Help, It's No Longer 2010 And We Don't Understand" so you're good.

[@TylerWillis]

That is a far more succinct rendition of this video than my overly verbose way of speaking could have come up with, so good on you! Lol, that is exactly what I was getting at. XD

[@redonyx5428]

I've been in the fashion for, my god, maybe almost 15 years but probably pass that and every 2-5 yrs something always starts the 'lolita is dieing' frenzy but we're still here. Lolita's been lolita since longer than most of us have been alive because it adapted and changed over the years. IMO, it's like goth. It's not going anywhere.

[@theprofessionalwizard9846]

redonyx some prat was already trying to ring its death knell less than a year after the second GLB was published. Everyone is in such a hurry to prophesy doom! XD

[@redonyx5428]

theprofessionalwizard i remember when egl was a thing i swear every few months there was a post like that. Like relax my dudes

[@Danaesss]

Rewatching this in 2020 is a surreal experience

[@TheDevilChrno]

Well, iron gates do have pretty big keyholes.. ha!

[@Peertje304]

Why would you do this to meeeeee XD Can't unsee...

[@JGArtemis]

Lmao!!

[@TylerWillis]

Aaaaaaand she went there. XD Lol!

[@HibanaOfficial]

it's pretty sad Victorian Maiden shut down. it one of the first brand of dresses I fell in love with when I first came across lolita. But it's understandable. I'd definitely lean towards prints rather than a plain albeit beautiful period-mimicking dress

[@TylerWillis]

It's sad, for certain. I had the same experience when I first entered. It was one of their JSKs that I saw. I understand why many would be upset/unsettled.

[@PV-wc5vs]

As a Lolita since round about 2007, I've heard Lolita fashion is dying so many times I've lost count. I think western goth fashion has died a few dozen times as well (though I guess that lot enjoys the undead so, maybe they like it that way). Our frilly butts have endured through times when you had to either personally know someone in japan to buy things for you, or make your own clothes with very very little in terms of tutorials or resources. We'll keep on floofing through a few brands closing, especially since Taobao "brands" are starting to really up their game and make pretty decent items. I am pretty sad that Tokyo Rebel in NYC is closing its physical store again, but, its not like we really need physical stores in the US for much more than the occasional tourist destination and tea party hosts.

[@castalian630]

oh boy once I saw the “f**k 2017” image at the beginning of the video, I was like “boy you haven’t seen anything yet”

[@CakePopClara]

I love this video for a number of reasons. (not masochistic) I just really starting researching and wearling lolita in 2017. I was amazed at how many resources there were online to make me not look like a frick-frack. I wasnt even aware that I would meet some of the most amazing women of my life before falling in love with the fashion. After getting my first dress (axes femme $15 wut) I went to a meet up and met girls who just started wearing lolita and many that were in these comms since 2009. I'm like holy shit thank you based god for making this still a thing when I had no idea how prevalent it was in society still. BTW I have a video of my first meet up at the shedd aquarium on my channel if you want to see that $15 dress and experience what I'm reflecting on. Also I'm tired newbies/non-lolitas thinking the fashion is dying because of some shitty article telling them it's not cool anymore. Like you're new I'm new theres literally 20 girls here who bought their first dress this year how can it be dying if you are literally keeping it alive as we speak. Or if they don't wear lolita I"m like why are you so interested in it if it's "dying". Also love the jokes here and your made up words give me life. I actually hd a lot to say in response to this so I might make my own video to bounce off what you shared here. Glad to see you won the copy write claim. Happy New Years Tyler!

[@GandKcreations]

Great video! While I was in Tokyo I saw a fair share of lolitas. That being said, I also saw a slew of cool and creative looks. As you said, American vintage style is huge at the moment - it's really no surprise that people just have a hard time accepting the fact that trends simply change as with media forms.

[@TylerWillis]

Thank you so much, both for the kind words and for sharing your personal experience in the country. It's heartening to hear that the doom and gloom articles are certainly padding the reasons to panic from a first hand source. People's resistance to change is, of course, historic; you're right.

[@mi55chi3v0us]

1) hell yeah sponsorship! 2) shit fittery is brilliant 3) I'm so glad to see more content and your old vids getting restored

[@TylerWillis]

Lol! Thank you for the words of support! They will only encourage my terrible habit of altering the English language for questionable purposes.

[@mi55chi3v0us]

good, you are my favourite wordsmith

[@Hijabibti925]

🎠🌹👒shit fittery👒🌹🎠

[@FlowerEmblem]

I remember when I started high school I used to look up the famous Japanese brand stores online to gaze upon the expensive but pretty dresses, but didn't have any money (or credit card) to purchase them. Fast forward to the end of post-secondary, a little richer though still somewhat broke and can now actually justify purchasing dresses because I can get ones from Taobao that are half the price but still beautiful. I go to anime conventions every once in a while and I've seen more girls wearing lolita every passing year. What I'm saying is that for young women and for ones just starting, it's become more affordable to wear lolita fashion (without making it yourself, etc.) but this affordability is most likely to come outside of those famous brands.

[@RoseQuartzRoyalty]

Why is a ddlg video recommended after this??? #stayoutofmyfashion

[@hey_boss88]

Hannah you know why

[@elliot_rat]

i am... disgusted

[@cap4life1]

KZbin recommendations are based on your viewing history so . . .

[@RoseQuartzRoyalty]

cap4life1 well it DEFINITELY missed the mark then 😂

[@Glitterygummybear]

Hannah my recommended is "Everything wrong with the bee movie" I wish I was joking. I'm not sure what's worse

[@melonbread3951]

i love the coord snaps at the outro. Plz do more in future videos, i always wonder what your full coords look up close.

[@GothicTech]

Just because a major shop that used to drive a niche culture closed doesn't mean that the entire culture is dead. same thing happens in technology, a company close or get sold to another one, or physical market places close to be replaced by an online one. The Lolita culture is mostly adaptive one, most would love to go to physical shops and buy stuff from there (some might go and buy let say a dress but then realize they made a mistake a paid more than they thought and whinge about) some can't so they resolve to internet shopping which what I see most business go to these days. congrats on the sponsor you deserve it. and happy new year :)

[@MADGuy248]

A Hong Kong fan waving here. Yeah people here love going to Japan for site seeing and shopping lol Japanese culture has a big influence to the culture here too.

[@TylerWillis]

Oh wow, it's so fracking cool to talk with someone with first hand experience in the subject matter. Thank you for enduing it!

[@kinsnuf]

Tyler will not be taken down by the Mushroom man! LWLN prevails.

[@TylerWillis]

Lol! The Mushroom Man sounds like some kind of nefarious fairy tale villain. It's perfect.

[@HurricanePixie7]

You’re just brilliant! Thank you for making such thought-provoking and well-researched pieces-> with the most delightfully dry snarky humor I’ve witnessed in ages! You are a real gem; keep it up! Three cheers for intelligent, proactive women!! Bravo!!

[@MADGuy248]

By the way Tyler, would you cover the topic of fast fashion in lolita fashion?

[@PerfectPride]

Oooooo that's a good one.

[@MADGuy248]

Karichi Du Soleil I was expecting someone to say that Lolita focuses on quality than quantity so it won’t be a problem (since I saw someone said that in Lolita updates), but I can’t help but to worry if the overwhelming amount of lolita items by Chinese indie brands promotes fast fashion indirectly. I have noticed such phenomenon especially in the Chinese Lolita community, and is getting more vivid like other fast fashion based alternative fashion community in China. Though it can’t be deny that most of the indie items are made in high quality (my lolita items so far are mostly made by Taobao brands lol), they’re too much to handle for the community! For anyone who read this comment, I would like to hear your perspective and opinion on this phenomenon.

[@PenguinGeri]

Yeah this would be interesting.

[@TylerWillis]

Hmmmm, that's an interesting one for sure! Thank you for the suggestion, and while I can't promise coverage right now, due to the the whole Rufflechat blowup that started Monday, I will keep that one in mind!

[@MADGuy248]

ScarfingScarves Woahh I got noticed!! Thanks Tyler for considering the topic!!

[@ninjarock765]

Got real terrified after hearing from Lovely Lor about the KZbin nonsense. So glad things on ScarfingScarves are still running smoothly, so happy there isn't any beef. So happy about the sponsor. I've said it before, but I need this channel; it is my last vestige of hope, my only shining light.

[@Qichiquiche]

Wow how have I never heard of you? You are a combination of so many of my favorite things!!! Lolita fashion, sass, eloquent sass, nice voice, quickly delivered sass.

[@radish.]

Congratulations on getting a sponsor 🎉🎉🎉 Don't let anyone silence you Tyler, you're doing a huge service to the entire j-fashion community 💖

[@LoveSarahXo]

Congratulations on the sponsorship! Also, your forgotten outro had me in stitches 😂

[@Willowflora]

You saved me a lot of anxiety, much appreciated. Also, congrats on getting a sponsor! I've shopped with them a few times, they're cool.

[@TylerWillis]

I perfectly understand feeling like that during this time of upheaval, and I'm so glad anything this channel has made could relieve it. Thank you so much for the congratulations, and I'm happy to hear that it's been a smooth shopping experience for you! (I did my research, of course, but to hear it firsthand only strengthens my resolve to work with them.)

[@victorianme3668]

Your observation about the non-print brands going down is on point! Actually, the entire analysis is very interesting

[@SaoirseDragonfly]

Ohmygosh congrats on the sponsor! You put in so much work for us, you deserve all the backing. ❤

[@naurrr]

the other thing these brands have in common is a hellish lack of sizing. the VM designer came to anime north last year and got a lot of questions about more sizes for people larger than 86cm in the bust. she responded by making a fucking long mumu. VM is known for their A-line, tailored stuff, but it only comes in size VERY TINY. the one crumb they throw bigger people is the exact opposite of the stuff people actually did want to buy from them. that with their terrible distribution... I don't really feel that bad about VM closing.

[@redonyx5428]

God, I remember that. While I did love VM's designs they're very limited. Like they hit a rut and didn't want to come out of it.

[@naurrr]

if you're not going to sell your stuff to people who desperately want to wear it, you won't make enough money to survive. brands and designers need to listen to their fans and to potential customers and cater to them. VM only catered to one type of fan and assumed that they could do that indefinitely.

[@TylerWillis]

I saw the muumuu. It certainly wasn't.....indicative of their regular style. I can definitely see why that would be frustrating.....

[@Queen_Ribbon]

Rachel O oh my god I lowkey wanna see it because I'm a masochist

[@zatiriryna1591]

One thing I love about your videos are your cords!! Always gorgeous!! And your so sassy ❤️ I was new to the Lolita community....unfortunately I lost all my clothes from the hurricane....I will slowly rebuild!!

[@WillianyAmill]

in Shibuya, Mori kei is pretty popping. will it too be embraced into a branch of Lolita like goth, Victorian and home?

[@corriebeard7289]

Tyler!! So happy to see you again and yay you got a sponsor!! Definitely checking them out!

[@CupcakeKamisama]

Sweet baby Mana, I love you, woman, you're the absolute best! Thank you for translating my frustration and anger with the whole "Lolita is dying" thing into this beautiful, unending string of words both real and made up, you give Shakespearean actors a run for their money with your breath control and the ability to memorise line, I will not stop this sentence because I'm an unseasoned noob in the art of constructing neverending sentences compared to you, my master and senpai. In other words, great video, loved it from start to finish, please, keep going and can't wait for the next one. :)

[@pockyd244]

After watching several of your videos I have come to love how you make the information more understandable for people who are just entering the Lolita world.

[@jamessummers7418]

congrats on the sponsor!!!! glad to see you back on the tube :D

[@srbulloa813]

It's always a delight to watch a video made by you. :3 congratulations on the sponsor someone finally sees the awesomeness that I see.

[@re0294]

I don't think there have ever been so many words in one video ever before. I was out of breath just watching this.

[@sierralarars]

Ya know, if it wasn't for you saying that two of my fave brands were going out I wouldn't know! I tend to avoid keeping on the trends because its always a 'want it cant have it situation' haha. I couldn't afford them for daily wear anyway (I make my own dresses for daily wear) but they still were pretty to look at! Guess I have to save longer to get get my dream dress on the second hand market =_= goodbye bank account! Dry humour injection was very much appreciated and congrats on the sponsor!!

[@cassiemoyles4177]

I always look forward to your videos ♡ they are always so fantastic

[@shakilamuhammad5503]

I love your videos!! I'm so happy Lolita is growing and your making more videos

[@AltairStarlight]

This was brilliant thank you

[@cierrat5855]

You are so funny, and this video is making me want to go back to the fashion!

Thanks for summarizing what actually happens with the fashion right Now! And congrats on the sponsor ❤

[@TylerWillis]

Thank you for managing to make it through that word-storm, and thank you again for the congratulations!

[@wonderlandartwork3579]

Happy new year, Tyler ^^ I actually get a little upset when I hear people who are new to lolita say that they entered a dying fashion, especially in the state I live in (Northrhine-Westphalia). I'm located pretty much right next to Düsseldorf, which is like germany's Akihabara and Harajuku merged together into one huge street within walking distance of the main station. Therefore our Comm is quite active there. Sadly K-Pop mostly took over the shelves of J-Rock in stores but there are actually some shops who actively REFUSE to play K-Pop out of one sole reason: The (obnoxious) fans. And honestly, I prefer a nice piano piece over a plastic hip hop beat to my tea, wether traditional or with boba ^^ Ok I got way off track o.o What I'm trying to say is: Not only Harajuku is changing, but that does not mean the OG's are gone!

[@TylerWillis]

Oh wow! It's so spiffy to talk with someone outside the black hole of Americentrism! I fracking love traditional, and boba tea myself, and I'm heartened to hear that the "OGs" are still alive and kicking in your neck of the woods! XD

[@TylerWillis]

Frack! Happy New Year to you too! I nearly forgot, because my brain is in full potato-mode!

[@wonderlandartwork3579]

haha it's okay ^^

[@LadySubaru62]

Great video as always. I don't wear Lolita, but that Lovely Snow Fantasy is like my favorite print. I'm tempted to get the OP.

[@TylerWillis]

I have no regrets about calling it a dickey-esque nightmare, that said, the stock photos don't do it justice. It's so pretty in person, and Lolita or not, I'm sure the OP would be just spiffy! I support you decision! (Or indecision, whatever ends in you not feeling like you put your wallet in a shredder)

[@stwabunny]

tl;dr: lolita fashion isnt dying; its just different ('grats on the sponsorship!! i love lolita desu)

[@SwimmingInSunlight]

Getting 'em sponsors 💵💵💵

[@TylerWillis]

Lol! Again, totally unearned sense of legitimacy, but there you have it! Thank you for putting up with this wandering word-salad either way!

[@tinkthestrange]

Congrats on your sponsorship!!!!

[@beguinemystic]

from what i’ve seen, a lot of taobao brands are more successful than ever due to new publicity, and new releases from ap and btssb sell out as quickly as they ever have. what makes lolita cool is how timeless it is - it’s so separate from other fashion trends and time periods that it seems like something people appreciate no matter what year it is because it’s just so essentially princessy and feminine. it’s basically the dream for anyone who grew up wearing disney princess costumes every halloween and i think that’s a consumer base that never really shrinks.

[@llrainll]

Do the Japanese youth still hang out at Omotesando Bridge? ( Cosplaying Visual Kei artists - and dressing in Lolita ). I know they used to dress up and hang out every Sunday. : ( ! It’s that I’m writing a report- but I’ve not followed up with the scene in a very long time. Perhaps over a decade- ? It’s not dying. Not long ago I went to Harajuku several times- especially on the Sundays. I found at least two people dressed in Decora, and one Dressed in the Ouji style in Ikebukuro. It could be because it was during the summer- and the heat there is insane 😶

[@TheWastelandWizard]

Great video, enjoyed your roundaboutly succinct explanations as always. Congrats on the sponsor Gates are sexy and Excentrique will be missed. I'd be interested in your take on the Goth/Industrial/EBM scene dying as well.

[@TylerWillis]

Roundaboutly succinct is such a fun concept, lol. It's kind of perfect. Thank you for your kind congrats. I question your attraction to fences, but to each their own. XD My brain is a rolling potato due to sleep deprivation right now, but that bit about the Goth/Industrial/EBM scene is definitely close to my heart. I can't promise a full take on it now, (due to previously mention potato brain) but it's an interesting topic that I would like to tackle. My local scene is hopping along, but I know that doesn't necessarily reflect the larger experience. I will need more research!

[@MrBigTAnderson]

Oh this has been a blast to listen to thanks for the entertainment :D

[@AmandineYlan]

Living in Hong Kong here!! Love your videos!! Be careful to not counting Hong-Kong separately to China! Depending on the people you might offend people. Oh wait, nope no more, that's too 2017. (We're not China YET)

[@lafeil]

No think not dying, just need game plan get back top. For example if brands would add mores sizes and do more marketing in states.

[@jessraat]

Tyler, do you have any degrees relating to this sort of environment? Absolutely not questioning your credentials, just you have the most amazing words and a very comprehensive grasp on the topics you focus on (more thinking about the black/feminist videos you did). Either way, you're amazing. Happy 2018! Keep beating idiots around the head with your words.

[@vascanj]

I'm not the only person who wanted to push Tyler's bangs up because they seemed low and it looked like her eyes were trying to pushing them up, right? Haha Great video Tyler! I'm not even in the Lolita community but I like watching your segment!

[@iloveyourunclebob]

I think I love you. Sarcasm and attitude wrapped up in a big pink bow. How old where you when you realized that being adorable and shock value was your super power? I was in Jr High lol

[@alitaschratwieser7976]

Harajuku, aka Takeshita street, is utter crap now, but the backstreets of nearby omotesando are strill thriving.

[@USMarshmallow]

As someone who visited Harajuku while living in Japan, Harajuku IS NOT DYING.

[@evilsasha]

Holy crap grats on getting a sponsor!! That’s awesome!

[@TylerWillis]

Thank you for that! (and for contending with this word salad in general)

[@evilsasha]

No need to thank me, as a newcomer I really appreciated this video! I don't have anything to compare the current times to, and I'm getting pretty sick of all the lolita is dying screams, so this was really reassuring to me. As for the cease and desist BS please let the community know what we can do, I'm sure a lot of people will come forward and do what they can to help, for now just know that we're with you all the way!

[@mollyshadows9726]

[@firefoxwaffles5357]

I don't want Mary Magdelene to go away nooooo. I literally JUST got into lolita two months ago and my first reaction was, "Where are solid colored dresses? I don't want prints!" Historically I have never liked patterns on my shirts I have never liked the weird prints released by Forever 21, I just. Don't. Like. PRINTS!!! But MM is also so way out of my budget, even secondhand...and yet I LOVE their look! It's so classic, so elegant, ugh, I got into this 10 years too late didn't I :( I just am not fond of these crazy prints! Solid color and timeless style for me.

[@Queen_Ribbon]

Firefoxwaffles There are lots of Taobao releases without prints. You just have to pay attention to the updates.

[@firefoxwaffles5357]

I just joined the Lolita Updates group on FB after one of my IRL lolita friends told me about it, and it's been a godsend, I've found a ton of stuff now! I'm really new to the fashion so I'm still trying my best to collect a list of brands both big and small :) Just found myself a gorgeous red A-line from a brand called "Leabhar Cheanannais" and can't wait for it to arrive :)

[@meganlilyflower]

[@ltwhat6277]

"Dear God, they're using dogs as footstools now!" OMG I died when she said that!! 😄

[@mmybickers]

Puréed optimism served dead cold.

[@YaroShien]

God, you are just amazing! You got a sub outta me!!!

[@njkillo]

Eaaaeey! finally a legit sponsored video! This def. shows that hard work and telling big pedo-y companies to fuck off pays off!

[@TylerWillis]

It was so strange for them to reach out in the middle of the Ask Japanese uproar. Odd timing, but it worked out! Thank you for contending with this nightmare circus, whatever the case!

[@GothCookie]

oh my gosh, this coord gives me life!!

[@zentierra7803]

So...not a lolita here, but certainly an admirer of..erm.."word salad". I stumbled upon this site a couple of days ago (it was in my recommendations, because...?) and I am currently sort of binge-watching it, mostly because I have a rather impressive amount of spare brain cells swirling around aimlessly within the confinement of my cranial cavity, like so many flouncy petticoats caught in a not-so gentle breeze... Okay, I'll admit, I have also been gazing at Lolita fashion for a while now, as I find it quite beautiful and imaginative. One does not have to be an adherent to a particular aesthetic, in order to admire it. My two-cents worth of observation (now that I'm actually getting to it ) on whether Lolita fashion is dying, is this: I cannot imagine that all the Lolitas themselves, who have invested such a tremendous, colossal, hell, *epic* amount of time and money in their wardrobe would ever allow such a demise to actually happen, beyond the occasional bout of -as you stated in the video - apparently *cyclical* conjecture, resulting in a communal "clutch your pearls and grab the smelling salts" collapse upon respective fainting couches.

[@Artemiswitchcosplay]

Happy new year Tyler, I love this video, fashion changes always, am glad you made this video. People gotta stop being scared chickens with their heads swiftly decapitated and falling off a cliff when the slightest bit of change happens.🤙🏾💛💛

[@distortedplushie]

Tyler, would you ever make a video about the trans experience in lolita fashion? I loved the intersectional way you've covered feminism and race so far!

[@forgetaboutme5414]

WHOOO! Congrats on the sponsor!!

[@Xionfox]

I made it all the way through lol and the outro was golden

[@TylerWillis]

Your endurance is impressive, lol. There needs to be a survivors club for people who actually manage such a feat. Glad you liked my fracking up at the end!

[@pixelspider6454]

(I can't wear Lolita at the moment. I'm underage and my parents said no because of prices. I DO wear kei fashion and follow the Lolita community all the time) I saw someone on Amino freaking out about this and I was like "I literally JUST watched like ten videos about Lolita, ALL FROM DIFFERENT CHANNELS"

[@KariTalksTooMuch]

I always say that whenever that damned question comes up. It's CHANGING, not DYING.

[@SpookyWhispering]

Good to see your videos coming back up! Congrats on the sponsor.

[@TylerWillis]

Thank you kindly! Both for the congratulations, and for somehow having the ability to sit through the paragraphs I've disguised as sentences!

[@SpookyWhispering]

I have always adored this Stephen Colbert style delivery.

[@Jessinking]

see i think re vintage is another huge thing. here in america all of us grow up with the whole goodwill thrift shopping poor shopping etc. and making something from a few years or decades old modern...and it seems japan is just now figuring that out and also really fan girling over american brands we can easily get here....and all this being old hat can come off as 'dead' because the fashions before were so opposite and new to what we have here...and i think the similarity of what we have here with the new trends is also why people are kinda meh...when i saw the pajamas over regular clothes i was like yeahhhhhh americans did that in the 90s i'm not into it because it's not my asthetic and i've seen it before.

[@RibbonRoulette]

Thank you for being the voice of reason among this dumpster fire community.

[@liketanyanot]

Most epic coord you've done yet and i just bought an s-ton of stuff from Lolita Desu

[@TheVexetta]

I love this video so much.

[@BornRemaining]

I guess I'm old-fashioned, as I don't like prints at all. Eh, I've always been fine with my clothing being simplistic anyhow.

[@amatsukiko]

Personally, I'm not that much into prints either

[@BornRemaining]

@@amatsukiko Does it ever make you feel like you might be missing out? I think the prints are gorgeous and super cute to look at, but wearing them not so much. Reminds me of when I was a kid and loved the smell of green peppers, so I was sad that I didn't like the way they tasted.

[@michelles7601]

More sizes (larger) are needed for crossdressers.

[@mamibonbonbomb]

alright this has convinced me to watch lolita news

[@DebbieBuckland]

Well executed. I do like the non print stuff and out of the prints it’s the steampunk looking stuff I like the best... don’t like the cute stuff or the thousands of dogs, cats and bunnies. Even the dead bunnies are too cute for me to wear... oh frack lets just put studs and leather on everything - bahahahaa

[@carlystrang5101]

Tyler, you are fucking hilarious, and I adore you.

I am but a small pile of salt, thank you for dropping by this side of the internet to watch these videos.

[@carolinasunny6486]

Hey you got your tiny animals inside tiny apples jsk( o 7o )b ! My opinion is the same as yours, lolita fashion is just not a harajuku style anymore, it's something bigger! There are more people wearing it than ever and more to come

[@jenniferamaya2838]

I didn't understand the Mana-Sama part :0

[@smokermegadrive]

For a spanish native speaker is hard to follow you but i can still understand most of it XD So it's an extremely common thing that when something goes wrong in a community, they will start thinking that is dying and that the black death will come up for them or for certain business, etc, etc. Still they always are exagerating most of the time

[@Jessinking]

OMG THERES SO MANY GOOD MOMENTS HERE YADA YADA YADA HARAJUKU FASHION IS DEAD LOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

[@elliot_rat]

[@TylerWillis]
