I support Nina crossplaying. I'm sure she'll look as good as one of the Takarazuka ladies.


I dunno, she looks great but it's still obvious that she's a girl Anime smile + sweatdrop

I'd like to share this one. It's Hei from Darker than Black. I can't find the pic without the mask, but the person in the pic is definitely a girl.

I think I can somehow relate to this one. I crossplayed two bish-types and not once did I get the fangirls' attention. For one character, I had some of them hug me (in an endearing way, not the aggressive glomping, though), and the other....one girl actually thought I was a guy and said I was cute until someone told her I'm a girl....but I guess it was because of the hair (I cut it real short).

Excellent comic. I love how Kevin's expression develops in the last three panels – I think anyone who takes a gander at those will know exactly what's going on in his bespectacled head. Razz Good work!

Nah, I think he wants the opportunity to kiss Nina.
Then all he need do is hang the obligatory mistletoe over her at Christmas. Wink

Yeah, but you should see "women" in Kabuki plays. I read somewhere that those actors were often times considered the height of femininity. I guess that article meant more that their actions were feminine. I've seen a Kabuki play, and that's no woman. Wink

I'm sorry, maybe my brain's tired from essay writing but what exactly do you mean? Seriously, I don't understand the meaning of this comment.

I'll say! Couldn't they afford a pair each? Those pants must have been supersized and all! Big enough for Humpty Dumpty! Imagine two kids walking down the isles together in one giant pair of knickers! I blame the parents.

Okay, the comment about Humpty Dumpty made me laugh, but you have a valid point. Still, I wonder how more than one person could fit into normal sized pants? The new generation of people never ceases to amuse me, that much is certain indeed.

Yet another language issue, where "pants" and "knickers" mean different things in the UK versus the US. Back in the day when elephant-leg jeans were popular, you probably could fit two skinny teenagers in one large pair of trousers. But they would have problems walking.
