Mary… Could you really be in this town?

Menhera Chan

It has become rare to see local mine girls wearing Girly fashion, but overseas still insist that landmines is only frilly clothing and nothing more. Being unable to admit mistakes were made, the overseas image of mine girls is forever stuck in the past.

worst part is, it doesn’t matter how much you try to tell them the reality of things. it’s happened so many times before, they either say that “well you just don’t like the subculture so you don’t want them calling it jirai” which is beyond stupid, or they’ll just get upset that you’re telling them that girly kei ≠ landmine “fashion.”

i always feel like i don’t have the right to talk about these kinds of things as on overseas landmine, but it’s still beyond frustrating when i see someone talk about jirai kei as a fashion. like.. living this way already hurts, can’t they stop trying to pretend this subculture doesn’t exist?

I had to touch on this topic as overseas netizens are constantly harassing people on Twitter who use landmine for themself but wear yamikawa or subcultural punk fashion while having a dislike for those who mislabel all of Girly fashion as such, claiming that they "have no right to talk about landmine without wearing the fashion", "it is not a subculture", and "you just hate landmine fashion, it doesn't need diagnosis to wear" when it is not seen like that among local mine girl circles.

It's like people don't understand the context and misunderstand "地雷系ファッション" as "landmine is a fashion" rather than "landmine-like style".
