here is my take on this. the reason why gyaru isn't going to get popular again is because you guys won't let new substyles get created.
you see a gyaru in a substyle you've never seen before and automatically say they aren't gyaru. all gyaru substyles have been created at one point it's not like they just appeared out of nowhere so why act like new substyles can't be created?
the whole point of gyaru is to go against the beauty standard and be sexy (obvi sexy is different for everyone) as long as they fit in with the gyaru lifestyle and do the makeup with the main points of gyaru make now then I don't think we should be calling people not gyaru. one exception is "clean gyaru" cause that basically takes away the whole point of gyaru

Honsetly the traitor reveal plot in Gachiakuta is done really well.
First off, readers didn't even know there was a traitor until the reveal, and now it's a situation in where the reader knows this character is sus while none of the other characters know. I'm sure it'll create some intense scenes later down the line.
Then it's the characters presentation until now. They're introduced as a supporting character in a fairly early arc where they get to show off some of their powers. When first reading this said character comes off as cool, powerful, a little funny, and someone you're glad to be on the protagonist's side. In other words they're a likeable character with an interesting power you want to see more of in the future.
However, re-reading the arc knowing that they're a traitor gives another impression. They knocked out three other jinki users (including the protagonist) with ease, almost killed them without breaking a sweat. Now instead of thinking of them as an impressive ally they now comes off as a very dangerous enemy who is several levels above Rudo.
Also, when Amo is talking about "the angel" and how it flied up they keep insisting that she's "crazy" and nothing she says can be trusted. It didn't seem weird at the time but with a re-read it sounds more like they try to convince the other characters to not listen to her.
Then, the final scene that cements that they're actually a horrible or at least cruel person is the cake scene right after the reveal. Like they did that just to be cruel. I hope they choke on every cake they eat for the rest of their lives.

they're such domestic kitties...
grammar this. grammar that. sometimes 'grammatically correct' just doesn't hit the spot. the vibes are telling me to laugh in the face of the english language and that's exactly what I'm going to do, one incorrectly structured sentence at a time.
