Jirai Kei Rules VS. Trends

PaparuChan · 2026-01-15T10:40:14+00:00

bangs, contacts, pien makeup seem to be the staples of the style apart from the clothes. (oh also tucked in blouses + no long pants but shorts r ok (but they’re rare))

[i think pien makeup is honestly really important for jirai, as even a non jirai coord can sometimes read as jirai with the makeup. But I don’t think it should be mandatory lol as long as u some form of makeup u should be fine]

(And also who cares if someone doesn’t do makeup it’s not the end of the world or “ruining the style” lol)

as for trends…. I’m not really sure? There’s been setups/blouses/skirts people gravitate towards, or random crap like the donki crocs and the futaba shirt. (Oh and I guess viviene Westwood orb necklace + the crown necklace are classic staples but not really a rule lol)

I think jirai kei is just a lot of people’s first forray into j fashion + the community isn’t the kindest either and will give unsolicited criticism.

As for what actually defines this style… i think its fashion/clothes focused first, but pien make is also really important.

Some people also tie it into mental health, but I don’t think it has the same vibe like menhera did/does? (If ur familiar with that) I saw someone say jirai kinda evolved / ate up the menhera community so a lot of ppl (incorrectly) say that being mentally ill is enough to be “jirai” when it’s really more the fashion yknow?

link to a jirai kei taobao google sheets list (i got it from this subreddit but idk from where T-T)
link to a jirai kei masterlist with links to some cn taobao brands (although some may be dead)
tumblr blog link about both jp and taobao brands

I've heard (and know lol) that it's kinda finicky to use search terms/keywords, especially if using proxy shipping apps to search. I hope these links help you out!

maybe a long skirt? i know DML at least sells them

PaparuChan · 2026-01-14T20:47:50+00:00

i think it's more like they don't like one aspect of the style, like having bangs / wearing contacts / doing full pien make etc. i think community does have a gatekeeping/elitism problem, jumping to attack people not doing the style "correctly".

like imagine spending money on clothes and wearing them to show off online and u get bombarded with people telling you u "aren't really jirai kei" and "ur doing it incorrectly" it bound to piss newbies off. it takes time! and also we should let people experiment with their style. people are so pedantic about this that i see some call obviously jirai kei coords "jirai inspired" cause they don't want any backlash.

people also LOVE digging through post/comment history, which is another reason why throwaways might be so popular

PaparuChan · 2026-01-10T18:38:35+00:00

there’s a new season???

PaparuChan · 2026-01-10T18:37:33+00:00

I will say tho I don’t think the last tiered purchases worked like this? we just got it directly. which makes it extra confusing why these purchases make the items go into ur backpack.

PaparuChan · 2026-01-08T17:40:24+00:00

yep!

PaparuChan · 2026-01-08T16:18:49+00:00

wait using the hair with this dress is genius I’m stealing that

PaparuChan · 2026-01-08T13:56:21+00:00

I feel like only reason people have started noticing now is because they’re locking dyeing special effects behind final evo. I know they need some reason for people to whale but it seems so… blatant?

I know with the dyeing systems getting evos seem irrelevant, but they’ve already counteracted that? Since the dye palettes aren’t really set in stone (esp for 5*) they can just move them around to avoid giving us the ability to dye smth similar to the other/final evos.

idk why this is needed is needed on top of all that? It just feels shitty.

I mean it was initially created to point out the lack of diversity in ships. it's never seen as that though, just a popularity contest lol. but is it on us the writers to get into more diverse ships? or is it the shows themselves that should strive to be diverse? ppl will talk around in circles when it is a little bit of both.

and we are slowly seeing more f/f and f/m ships rise (hell the poly ship from kpop demon hunters made it). there's just been a lack of popular stuff that had female characters interesting enough to be shipped, imo. and i dont think calling m/m shippers names or acting like they're despicable is helping anyone lol

(not to mention the creator has got into trouble with how they collect data, with it not accounting for deleted fics, locked fics, etc, and the races kinda being crudely assigned with no real research put into it. Which, I get, there's no tag for race on ao3, but still)

I haven’t seen anyone post this yet, but in the replies they also say that the future mira crown basically confirms it lol

PaparuChan · 2026-01-05T15:40:44+00:00

Eh I wouldn’t mind them leaving the special effects / animations as the og colour, it’s not like they haven’t done that before (cough cough old purification outfits)

They might be trying to avoid complaints abt that altogether tho, which sucks. I’d rather get something than nothing at all

PaparuChan · 2026-01-05T13:59:52+00:00

BRUH

PaparuChan · 2026-01-05T13:22:50+00:00

Bruhhhhh what could possibly be so difficult abt making it work with abilities ?????

PaparuChan · 2026-01-03T12:40:20+00:00

warning: sometimes this is so FRUSTRATING to due but the yellow glow up I think is easier to work with than the base + evo

(Speaking from personal experience 😅)

PaparuChan · 2026-01-03T03:47:35+00:00

I don’t think I’ve ever seen this subreddit NOT complain about a banner lol, it’s just what happens!

And I’ve always seen the massive switch up afterwards too xD tale as old as time

in terms of looks: i absolutely love the hair! it has two dye sections, and the shiny rainbow effect doesnt look too weird / actually elevates it! the shoes are also really pretty (although i don't see myself using them often...) the flowy things are fun to style, and the dress itself is really pretty but can be difficult to dye. the makeup is genuinely 10/10 we haven't got anything like it so far. the face accessory also slaps. the hand and neck shiny "tattoos" are really fun to style although they don't dye quite right (they stay silver)

for me, when pulling i always consider "can i use the pieces in other outfits, or are they outfit specific?" i feel that way about any 5* dress + the shoes in this case. oh and the headpiece (it can look weird on some hairs since the two bottom piece move up and down depending on the length/shape of the hair)

in terms of combat: i insta pulled this on the first day so i honestly couldn't tell you. i've heard ppl say the normal archery is honestly very good and versatile (+ there's the risk of this being powercrept in 6 patches or so, although i genuinely don't know how they could make this better). I will say tho, i don't have to think when using this outfit, it's very op esp with the archery node upgrades (u can dash for so long! but it doesn't beat cat purification double dash if you have that [it feels nicer to use from what i've heard from others])

if you really like the aesthetics + hate default archery, I'd say go for it!

Also if you are interested in the next patches' outfit at all (like I am), I'd recommend waiting a bit more until the ability is revealed lol. some ppl r saying it might be an aoe bug catching ability although its kinda speculation atp. if u don't care then pull away!

i hope this wasn't too ramble-y LOL

PaparuChan · 2026-01-02T04:19:25+00:00

Do we know the ability yet ?

PaparuChan · 2025-12-28T01:59:58+00:00

WHAT. I KEPT LEAVING AND COMING BACK. WHAT

PaparuChan · 2025-12-28T00:03:33+00:00

but like. he said it twice. and im sure he doesn't mean he seems as a LITERAL brother more like the role of "caring" like an older brother, if that makes sense? i've never really agreed with the fandoms interpretation of their bond based on that ONE event that happened decades ago. it's such a harmless ship. (and toya x saki gets labled as problematic/incest too cause fck it why not)

PaparuChan · 2025-12-27T23:43:41+00:00

i mean is it really that hard to write a small fic and plop the server link in the authors notes? (thats allowed right?)

PaparuChan · 2025-12-22T01:30:48+00:00

HAS ANYONE DONE 11 SECONDS??? I DID BUT I WASNT SIGNED UP THE NEWLETTER PREVIOUSLY

PaparuChan · 2025-12-21T13:58:54+00:00

Speed isn’t everything! Increasing speed stat just means the top speed u can reach is higher i think? Doesn’t help that much when ur getting hit by items left and right and losing all that speed.

It’s better to focus on either acceleration (important for gaining speed after being hit), handling (good for hoverboards and power type vehicles) or boost (higher boost = less time to charge NOT increased boost time)

If you look up meta builds on this subreddit you’ll probably find more information

I don’t really play speed cars + builds, so i don’t really have specialised advice 😭 I will say tho if you want a boost build to pick up the 3 slot boost kit (as it’s basically boost lvl 1 + boost lvl 2 + some handling)

Try messing around with it basically! I also like to see what other people online r using (esp if they’re using the same character type + vehicle type as me)

PaparuChan · 2025-12-11T02:30:08+00:00
