Chapter 6

## Summary

Wakana and Marin go to the handicraft store. Wakana shows the detailed sketch he made of Shizuku Kuroe's outfit. Marin is overwhelmed at the detail but goes over somet details including the choker. They pick out the fabric first and Wakana likes the thicker fabric to represent Shizuku's status. Wakana then panics that he has no cash but Marin has an envelope of cash ready. Wakana is hesitant at first until Marin mentioned she had been saving up for cosplay for a while.

After shopping for a bit they head to the wig shop, Swallowtail. Wakana is amazed when he walks in which Marin isn't surprised by. He notices all the details and all the different styles. Marin takes him to a medium black wig but Wakana goes for the deep violet wig because a purple tint is more Shizuku's style. He also mentions that the length needs to be longer so it needs to be trimmed for accuracy. Marin mentions she can get it trimmed by her stylist and Wakana likes that idea. Marin thanks Wakana for something to help her out and Wakana is happy that he's useful.

The final store is the lingerie store for garters and stockings. Wakana gets anxious and wants to leave as soon as possible. Despite Marin's claims that couples come in all the time, Wakana still gets embarrassed. Marin shows him the garter and he quickly closes the curtain. Marin mentions that she wanted to show off some sexy style as a thanks for helping her out. Wakana ends up screaming that he can't take it.

Liz Arc

*For the character, see Liz.*

The **Liz Arc** is the fourth story arc in *My Dress-Up Darling*.

Now that she's crossed off bronzed fighter Veronica-tya from her to-do list, Marin has set her sights on a succubus from one of her favorite manga series! But when she picks out a questionable location for the photo shoot, Wakana's the one about to be left red in the face and hot under the collar!

## Summary

Wakana and Marin went to a manga cafe. They got a room to themselves which made Wakana hyperaware at how close they were. There, Marin introduced to Wakana the manga *SuccuProb* (SuccIDK in the Japanese translation). Wakana asked if she was planning to cosplay the main character of the manga, but Marin answered that she can't because she didn't think she would look good in half-up pigtails. After taking a good look at Marin's face, Wakana asked her to reconsider since he thought that she would actually look good in half-up pigtails. With that compliment from Wakana, Marin changed her mind and decided to go for it.

On the day of the photoshoot, Wakana found himself in what Marin thought was a studio but was actual a love hotel. Wakana panicked but Marin told him that she was going to go through with the shoot since it would be a waste of money to go home.

After Marin got into her costume, they started taking photos. Wakana had her recreate his favorite scenes from the manga using the props that he made especially for the occasion. For the last one, Marin would be doing a scene where she would be singing a lullaby to the male lead. When Wakana took the photo, it didn't feel right and figured that the picture had to be from the male lead's point of view. Wakana thought of lying down on the bed and had Marin sit on his stomach so that he could take the photo in from that perspective. They took the photo, and they were happy with how it turned out. Marin told Wakana how much fun she was having, and Wakana also shared that he felt the same way.

Their conversation was interrupted by the moans they heard from a nearby room. They were reminded that they were in a love hotel and the situation got awkward fast. Wakana realized that he had Marin sit on him and his gaze fell to her underwear. He got an erection which Marin felt. Wakana panicked and tried to lift Marin off him by grabbing her waist. This startled Marin and they both froze in place staring at each other. Wakana snapped out of his daze when the room telephone rang to ask them if they were going to extend their stay. He answered in the negative, so they left to check out.

At home, Wakana was left sleepless as he cringed and stressed over what had happened.

## Story Impact

* With Wakana and Marin accidentally spending time together inside a love hotel, the sexual tension between the two is shown.

## Characters Introduced

* *No new characters were introduced in this arc.*

## Summary

Wakana is stunned that he has to measure Marin's breasts next. Marin holds back her hair and is ready. Wakana asks if Marin can do it instead but Marin says no as she gets a different result every time she measures. Marin gets him to move in when she mentions her arms are getting tired. Wakana panicks but manages to get through the measurement.

Marin wants two more measurements done before the day is done, leg length and bust point. Wakana says no again but Marin wants the boob bag. Marin teases him about possibly revealing it to him but ends up making the measurement herself. Wakana is shocked at the amount measured (20 cm). Finally there's the leg length. Wakana thinks about how he wants to be more confident like Marin. He hears something and asks if Marin said something. He looks up to see that Marin's face is red. Marin is now the one to panic and Wakana thinks that it's hot inside.

As Marin gets dressed, Wakana asks for reference materials. Marin is happy to oblige and hands him the two Slippery Girl games. She hopes that Wakana will play them over the weekend as Wakana gets flushed for interrupting Marin while she's changing.

That night Kaoru returns only to find Wakana playing the game. He mentions that he has the sewing machine as Wakana mentions that dinner is ready. Kaoru is concerned for Wakana but is even more baffled that Wakana is taking notes.

Chapter 58

This is the third chapter of the eighth volume and the fifty-eighth chapter overall of the *My Dress-Up Darling* manga series written and illustrated by Shinichi Fukuda.

## Summary

Wakana explains that aside from nailing the costume and the makeup, Marin has to also act unmistakably "manly." He reminds Marin how Amane was able to hide his masculinity by hiding everything that says "male," from his mannerisms to his physical attributes.

Marin tries to act like a guy. Wakana remembers what his grandfather told him about learning how to lean on other people, so he asks Kensei to model for Marin. After a few compliments from Wakana, Kensei excitedly helps out. He poses for Marin who imitates him. With some additional instructions from Wakana, she manages to pose like a guy, so much so that Shiki comments that she looks like a man from the neck down.

A while later, Takeru arrives to tells them that their homeroom teacher bought them some refreshments. He sees Marin in the suit and remarks at how awesome the suit is. Takeru calls to Murakami who gingerly enters the room. According to Takeru, Murakami has been dying to come and see the costume. However, Murakami stopped himself because he thought that it would be weird for everyone if he was way too excited for it. He found it humiliating for people to find out that he had watched the drama, but Wakana assured him that that was nothing to be ashamed about. Kensei and Shiki also agreed that liking or watching the drama was no big deal. Murakami initially hesitates but he decides not to care and asks if he could take a picture of the costume. He says that he wants to show it to his sister and brag about how his friend was able to make Rei-sama's suit.

Marin poses for Murakami who takes her picture. She gets annoyed when she finds out that Murakami had cropped out her face from the photo.

Chapter 65

## Summary

Marin shares to her friends that she had gained some weight. Her friends tell her that they think she had already gotten fatter when they were at the beach together but didn't really notice until it now. The shapewear she wore when she was cosplaying as Rei Kogami also hid the fact that she gained weight because it was pushing her fat into shape. After hearing everyone tell her that she put on some pounds, Marin tries to figure out why since she thinks that she's been eating healthy.

Later that night, Marin goes to the Gojo's for dinner. Before she leaves, Wakana packs her some leftovers she can eat for breakfast the following day. While she's walking home, she smells the food Wakana packed for her and decides to eat them once she gets home. She suddenly realizes why she's been gaining weight.

The following day, she shares to Wakana what everyone has been telling her about her weight. She's worried that he would get mad because she can't fit into any of the clothes that he made for her. However, Wakana just suggests that they resize them and that her gaining weight wasn't a big deal since clothing sizes change all the time. Marin assures him that there's no need to resize the costumes because she plans on losing the weight she gained, but that she'll have to stop cosplaying in the meantime.

Wakana wonders how Marin is gaining weight when she's been eating fish all the time when she visits for dinner. Marin nervously tries to tell him that the problem isn't what she's been eating at the Gojo's but what she's been eating at home. Wakana guesses that Marin has been eating the food he makes for her breakfast immediately when she gets home and gives her a disapproving look.

## Summary

Amane recounts how he got into crossplaying. In a flashback back to his second year in high school, Amane's sister was watching a drag battle on television and asked if he wanted to try it out. She offered to do his makeup and put a wig on him, too. His sister was so happy with the result, and he was shocked by what he saw in the mirror. He could not recognize the person staring back at him and the feeling he got after seeing himself was something he could not shake. He asked his sister to teach him how to do makeup and she gave him clothes that she no longer wore.

Once he learned how to do his own makeup, he started cosplaying. He shares that he has an open-minded family, with his mother constantly giving him advise and praising his improvements. He had hated himself and was always insecure that he was not conventionally masculine and was often teased a lot. However, when he cosplayed, he was able to like who himself and slowly began to develop his confidence.

When he was in university, he was in a relationship. However, when his girlfriend found out about his hobby and found his costumes, she felt disgusted and demanded that he get rid of them. Due to the incident, he immediately broke up with his girlfriend without a second thought. Amane laughs at the memory, but Marin, who is listening, is in tears. She knows how much the costumes meant to Amane and is deeply offended in his behalf that the woman belittled something that mattered to him. Amane comforts her and assures her that he will never give up something that he loves.

Amane shares that when Wakana asked if he was in drag, he was scared that Wakana was going to judge him. Wakana exclaims that he would never do such a thing and Amane apologizes for doubting him. He is happy that the people in the event didn't turn their noses at him despite the fact that he was crossplaying. He realizes that just because one person said something negative, it doesn't mean that everyone else will say the same and that he shouldn't assume the worst of people.

The event is finally concluded and Marin and Amane are now out of their costumes. They are in the train station and are promising to keep in touch. As Amane bids them farewell, Marin and Wakana are dazed at seeing such a pretty young man. Meanwhile, Amane recalls how Wakana helped Marin with her makeup and hopes that they keep on doing cosplay together.

Chapter 13

This is the sixth chapter of the second volume and the thirteenth chapter overall of the My Dress-Up Darling manga series written and illustrated by Shinichi Fukuda.

## Summary

When asked why her clothes would be coming off, Marin mentioned that she added some special bras the night before to add some lift. Now she felt like her chest was bursting. She's also stuffy too and Wakana realizes that she's overheating.

He quickly takes her to a staircase inside where he gets some cooling pads, a portable sewing kit and some cold water. Wakana apologizes for not taking the heat into account as he hands her a cooling pad. He mentions that she should wipe off any sweat and cool any areas where there are major arteries. Marin wipes down noting that she doesn't even sweat this much in PE. Wakana looks up tips to find that unzipping clothes and ties allow the overheat to expel heat easier. Marin asks Wakana to unzip her back. He asks if he can get her to the changing room before remembering that she told him that she couldn't move earlier. He apologizes and unzips. Marin asks him to wipe her back. Wakana nervously agrees and Marin makes some delightful noises when he wipes.

Marin then asks for a towel so she can wipe underneath. Wakana worries that someone could see but Marin says that she has shorts on. After Wakana fixes the outfit, Marin asks to go to the plaza for one more person. She finds the photographer she left and explains how she got dizzy from the heat but wanted to finish the photo shoot. The photographer is worried for Marin's health so she takes the picture in the shade. The wind picks up and reveals the undergarments.

Manabu

**Manabu** (学 (まなぶ) , *Manabu*?) is one of Marin Kitagawa's stylists with whom she shares a close relationship.

## Appearance

Manabu has short black hair with an undercut.

## Personality

Manabu is very calm and blunt with a tendency to tell it like it is regardless (or rather mischievously because) of the chaos it may start at admitting it.

In the manga, he freely comments that Marin has gained a bit of weight in the one of the chapters. He also commented when Hikaru, his fellow stylist at the Salon, appeared as if he were hitting on Marin when he was scolding her.

He doesn't shy away from speaking his mind and also seems eager to style Wakana "to make him hotter" as said in the manga.

## Etymology

* The name **Manabu** means **"knowledge"** or **"learning"** (学).
Chapter 99

This is the ninety-ninth chapter overall of the *My Dress-Up Darling* manga series written and illustrated by Shinichi Fukuda.

## Summary

Word about the Haniel cosplayer has spread throughout Comiket. The crowd surrounding Marin has grown and people begin wondering who Marin is and if she's famous, after being able to draw in a large group of people. People have now been calling her "Princess" due to Akira's previous outburst. Everyone compliments both the costume and Marin's spot-on portrayal of the fallen angel.

While Marin stands before the crowd, she thinks of Wakana and hopes that she's doing a good job at conveying Wakana's vision for Haniel. She remembers how, despite her previous doubts about whether she could convey such a sophisticated character, Wakana put complete faith in her ability to pull it off.

Meanwhile, Wakana looks at Marin and the crowd surrounding her. He recalls his own vision of how Haniel should be portrayed. He realizes that he is once again captivated by Marin, much like what happened when she cosplayed as Rei Kogami during their school cultural festival.

## Chapter Notes

* The crowd around Marin grows bigger.

Chapter 64

This is the first chapter of the ninth volume and the sixty-fourth chapter overall of the *My Dress-Up Darling* manga series written and illustrated by Shinichi Fukuda.

## Summary

Marin is having her hair treated in the AIRS salon. She tells Manabu, Hikaru, and Riho about Wakana and the wrap party their class just had. She shows them a photo of the doll Wakana won for her and the picture Wakana took with some of the boys of Class 1-5.

While they are chatting, Manabu notices that Marin has gained a bit of weight. Hikaru overreacts and scolds her for not watching her body. Marin tells them that while she agrees that she might have gained a little weight, she doesn't mind. Manabu apologizes for blurting it out and changes the subject. He asks Marin to bring Wakana to the salon so he can make him hotter.

Later, while Marin is at her modelling job, she also tells her work friends about Wakana and the wrap party. After a brief conversation about Rana, another model, finding a boyfriend, the editor suddenly tells Marin that she got fat. She observes that Marin's body contours have changed. She tells Marin that summer clothes shoots were about to start and those show a lot more skin, so she implies that Marin should lose some weight.

As Marin is walking home, she isn't too worried about fitting into clothes for the summer shoot. However, she makes a realization and hurries home. She starts trying on her cosplay costumes starting with the Shizuku Kuroe costume. She finds that the dress is a little bit tighter. She tries on the Black Lobelia corset and also finds that tighter. When she tries on the Veronica costume, she is happy that it wasn't tight, and actually thinks that she was just imagining things. However, when she looks down, she finds her tummy slightly sticking out of her costume.

Her shoulder width is next so he gets her to turn around. He hopes not to get stunned by staring at her face but he ends up staring at her butt which makes it worse. Gojo asks if Kitagawa is embarassed and Kitagawa declines saying that she wants to become Shizuku in any way. She hears a slap and freaks out over what could happen. Gojo then declares that he's fine and wraps a cloth around his forehead.

He measures a lot and Kitagawa then asks if Gojo can measure her feet. Gojo agrees and gets up to get a chair but Kitagawa sits on the futon. Gojo panicks and says she should get off but Kitagawa says she's fine and puts her foot on his leg to show that it's fine. After the measurement Kitagawa is interested in the result.

Chapter 89

This is the eighty-ninth chapter overall of the *My Dress-Up Darling* manga series written and illustrated by Shinichi Fukuda.

## Summary

At the craft store, Wakana and Marin are trying to find the right fabric for the costume. Wakana wants to find a fabric to express the qualities of something beyond humanity. Wakana wants to stay and take a look at the different fabrics before he can decide which one to buy. Marin offers to help him by splitting up and doing some shopping on her own. She suggests that she head over the other shops and just ask the attendant for some help and send him pictures for confirmation.

Marin starts to shop for the items they need. She fits long white boots and horse-riding clothes there were going to use. She sends the photos to Wakana before she buys them.

She walks around the mall and sees a Christmas tree. She gets excited and looks forward to spending Christmas with Wakana. She passes by a lingerie shop and decides to look around. A Santa-inspired lingerie and a T-back catches her attention. The salesperson notices her eyeing the items and asks if she wants to try them on and asks if she's buying them for a Christmas date. Marin shares that it would be the first time for her to spend Christmas with her crush, but that he's living with his grandfather, and it might be too early in their relationship for the lingerie. The salesperson interrupts her and convinces her that she should buy "battle underwear" for herself, and not so she can impress a man.

After a somewhat long spiel about wearing "battle underwear" to make oneself feel good and motivated, Marin is convinced and decides to buy the lingerie.

Marin understands and decides to use the sliding door with the futon covering the tatami mats. Marin tries to pose properly but can't keep herself from smiling. After jumping for joy a little big, Marin promises to be super serious for the next shot. Wakana takes the shot and he's amazed that he got the photo perfect. He takes several more pictures in various poses. Wakana can't look away because of fatigue combined with the joy of finishing the outfit. After a shot of the garter, he gives Marin's phone back to her.
