🛑Stop, Wait And Listen. Don't Be Silent And Participate In The Crime. 🛑🛑

Ok I know this is a primarily Jirai centered blog so you’re probably expecting Girly Kei esq fashion but I wanna take the time to share something that recently happened to me so bear with me.

I recently bought some Hot Topic pants and some earrings that are very much like emo/mall goth, they came today and I tried them on and my mom was trying to commentate on my style (which I don’t mind for the record) and was trying to say emo, but I guess since she’s Spanish and it’s her first language she couldn’t figure out how to say it, so that’s how I got the gold that is her calling my style choice “emu”.

I burst out laughing I’m not even joking that was the happiest I’ve been all week.

Of course I corrected her but I’m never gonna let her live that down that shit was so funny to me.

Also here’s the pants in case anyone was curious:

Ok Jirais

I have a few contenders

Battle it out to see who comes out on top.

So I may have gotten inspired…

Expect a video in maybe 3 weeks to a month.

I’m looking back at videos trying to explain Jirai Kei and not gonna lie, if I wasn’t a hideous, camera-shy freak, I’d go all out and make my own Jirai Kei essay.

The way that these people talk about Jirai Kei doesn’t feel like it does them justice since they’re into it from a fashion perspective. And I don’t wanna be that person, but if you’re into it purely for the fashion, you might as well call it girly kei since that’s what its fashion aspect of it basically took inspiration from, if not directly took it from (and if you’re a subcul Jirai, emo fashion in Harajuku is a primary visual inspiration).

Jirai isn’t just some edgy term used by Jirais to look cool and like some sort of anime menhera archetype. It was an actual insult used by people(usually men) in Japan to describe girls who are basically ticking time bombs. This is just Jirais reclaiming the term the same way Emos had reclaimed their name(Emo was an insult in the early 2000s).

I call myself Jirai because I understand this as someone who was often called overdramatic and too emotional, and feel a sense of power from it. Yes, I’m not Japanese, but there’s a reason that some Japanese subcultures have terms for participants outside of Japan(Ex. Gaijin Gyaru). It doesn’t have to be exclusive.

In conclusion, to quote a Reddit that I found, “I don’t think people(especially fashion Jirais) understand the implications of being called a Jirai.

"suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem!" dude you are so right. give me a million dollars and fix the entire medical system right now.
