MAHIRO AND HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS

OMAKE 37.5 OF THE MANGA

## Previously

As a teenage girl herself, one of Kaede's personal interests is high fashion and the use of makeup (see Chapters 7 & 31). She sends out a special gift for the surprise party that was arranged for Mahiro. It turns out to be a tube of glossy tinted lip balm. Mahiro experiments with the lip balm; this her first experience with girl's makeup. After wearing the tinted lip balm, Mahiro is quite pleased with the new found attention that she has generated, both from the girls, and now from the boys. However, Kaede's makeup interest is not limited to Mahiro. What would Mihari look like after one of Kaede's special makeovers ?

## This Omake's Story

A few days after Mahiro was busted for wearing makeup (tinted lip balm) at school, Mihari teases Mahiro by asking her if she is going to wear any makeup today ? It's morning, and Mahiro is sitting on the couch in the front room playing a video game on a portable hand-held device. Mahiro's reply is short and to the point---

"**UGG !** LAY OFF, *will ya !!!* " Then Mahiro does a 'turn-about is fair play'---

" AND HOW ABOUT YOU ? You should dress up sometimes, too !!! " (see Omake 6.5)

Mihari sheepishly says that she is fine the way she is. Mihari continues by stating that it's not like she would be showing it to anyone, after all. She would be too self-conscious and embarrassed to do something like that !

" So it has come down to this ............ ", Mahiro nonchalantly announces, as she ushers in another person who just happens to appear out of nowhere. Why, IT'S KAEDE !!!

" LEAVE IT TO ME !!! ", proclaims Kaede !

" WHERE DID YOU COME FROM ? ", belts out Mihari ! Kaede then grabs Mihari from behind, encircling her around Mihari's waist with her hands.

" I don't wanna .............. " , pitifully bleats out Mihari.

" C'mon ! Just give in ! " , orders Kaede. " Besides, because you skipped grades in school, Mihari, I've been wanting to do high schooler-like things with you, even if it is just playing around. "

Mihari is emotionally touched. " I guess I have no choice. Here, do what you want ! "

Mahiro nods her approval, saying that was such a sweet story. After quite some time, Kaede loudly announces---

**" There, it's done ! "**

After much 'blood, sweat, and tears', Mihari looks like a genuine, authentic, spitting image of a real, honest Gyaru Girl (\*)!!! Holding a lolipop, hair styled in little girl's twin tails with beaded hair ties, and throwing off bright sparkles that would put a Fourth-of-July sky rocket to shame, Mihari tosses herself onto the couch, and assuming a very outgoing, sexy, and provocative pose (" Mihari! You naughty girl!! I can see your panties!!! "), surprisingly is able to talk in an authentic Gyaru Girl accent---

" **Total**-l-l-l-l-ly ~ ~ ~ It's ...... LiKe, SOOOOOOOO *hilairious* , **Y**'Aaall ~ **K**nowww !!!!!!! "

Mahiro is thoroughly and completely shocked at Mihari's Henshin (Transformation Sequence) from geeky girl to over-the-top Gyaru girl.

**" I WILL NOT ALLOW THIS !!! " ,** screams Mahiro, as Kaede and Mihari 'high fives' each other, and then gives the victory sign ("V") with gusto ! Girl's friendship, forever !!!

## Omake Lookback

(\*) **Gyaru Girl**

Gyaru is a Japanese transliteration of the English slang word "gal", meaning 'girl' in the sense of a young teenage woman (a shoujo). Gyaru is a description of many people who follow many types of Japanese Street Fashion, but can also refer to a single kind of street fashion, described below. This Gyaru fashion is typically characterized by having brown-tinted or tanned skin (as in not their natural skin color), heavily bleached or dyed hair ( mostly shades of dark brown all the way to bleach blonde or pink ), highly decorated nails, and very dramatic makeup. The makeup style typically consists of dark eyeliner and fake eyelashes used in ways intended to make eyes appear larger ( as in anime and manga girls ), as well as contouring the face for a slimming effect. The choice of fashion for clothing is typically that of casual, summer oriented clothing, as in wearing a sailor suit or a short-sleeve top and a regular or pleated mini-skirt worn with leg warmers. Hair is many times worn in exaggerated, sexy twin tails, or worn with huge, colorful bows or ribbons. The entire clothing theme is to give a fun, yet provocative look.
