Sawada "Eat My Smegma" Daisuke strikes back
Dunno why, but i like his style. THX 4 sharing 
Been waiting for a ganguro/tan comic for a LONG LONG time. I know you have other tan comic up and about, and i devour those like no tomorrow, but ganguro? now thats a real treat. Im not into the REAL extreme ganguro girls, but the one who light dips their toes into ganguro-ism are hot – if you know what i mean. Hope there will be more ganguro/tan comics, as their perferably my favorite.
I've never heard a hipster talk like this in real life (and where I live, I'm around them all the freaking time). The script/localization sounds more like what a ganguro tends to act like: Super valley girl. I really expected her to utter "ooohmigawd" at some point. She's more scenester than hipster (and there's a huge fucking difference between the two. See hipster kitty/ariel and scene wolf for comparison)
Well, y'know, hipsters are not an universal given entity, they're hip by the local standards, in comparison to the local average social values.
Your hipsters won't be other people's hipsters.
Fucken Syndrome.
That you have a point. I was thinking that when I wrote that (Japan's got a completely different batch of hip ideals). It's just I get the sense that, at least in English-speaking countries (though I've heard it's kinda similar in Marseilles from my friends), hipsters have kind of emulsified into a singular form, with small degrees of variability.
Then again, the term was coined in the late 1940's by Norman Mailer (famous writer) to identify the New York kids who were watching Miles Davis and Charlie Parker play (these cats eventually turned into the Beat poets). So make of that what you will.
Fuckin Syndrome, indeed.
