6 Most Ridiculous School Uniform Designs in Anime World

School uniforms are an anime staple. 

Plot settings regularly take place in middle school or high school and the sheer number of anime, manga, and light novel series released each year means character designers and artists have to come up with new ways to make their protagonists easily identifiable in their uniforms. 

Besides changing up color, most girls' uniforms fall into either the sailor-style or blazer-style. Sometimes attempts to draw attention to a character just makes them stick out for all the wrong reasons. 

Range from the weirdly designed, fanservice-laden, or nonsensical for day-to-day wear, there are truly ugly examples:

1. Skin and More Skin (Katsuragi from Senran Kagura) 

I'm cutting Senran Kagura some slack because it is, first a foremost, a vehicle for fanservice. 

Even its one-off cooking game worked boobs into it, so we shouldn't be surprised that there's a school girl character with an unbuttoned shirt and no underwear kicking her way through enemies. 

She delivers the kicks with "boots" but they're more accurate described as high-top sabatons. 

Katsuragi's outfit isn't what all the girls at Hanzō High wear, but I'm guessing they could since the faculty seemingly pay her no mind.

 

2. Jumpsuits (Stellvia) 

Stellvia isn't in second place for its orange, high-neck girls' uniforms. It's in first place for putting its boys in choirboy jumpsuits. 

I'm sure the thought process was that it was a sci-fi series and the boys' uniforms were supposed to be reminiscent of spacesuits, but Kōta has an actual spacesuit for that. 

But then there's the white pointed collar, and the tiny tie, and the fact that the whole thing is blue. Unfortunately, the design leaves poor Kōta and the rest of his male classmates looking like Megaman sans a helmet.

3. Drawstring School Girl Skirts (Ai Tenchi Muyo!) 

This entry in the Tenchi Muyo! franchise served as both a promotional tool for Takahashi, Okayama and a return of some of the main characters for the first time in almost a decade. 

The character designs were courtesy of Durarara!! illustrator Suzuhito Yasuda, so maybe the onus is on him for the skirts in this show. 

The school Tenchi Masaki teaches at has, what would be, standard grey pleated skirts, a white oxford shirt, a blue blazer, and a grey bow-tie. 

In what looks like an attempt to raise the fanservice of the uniforms, all the skirts are tied on the sides with drawstrings with side cut-outs to expose the character's panties. These aren't slits since the skirt pieces are still barely attached at the bottom. 

It's more ridiculous when you imagine that faculty members signed off on this idea for their students. Some characters forgo the skirts altogether for bloomers or throw in weird groping hand nylons, too.

4. Corset lacing, pinafores, & petticoats (11eyes) 

11eyes, along with Dance with Devils, Gosick, and Strawberry Panic!, design uniforms with the idea that the more frills you have, the more prestigious the school. 

It's also way to integrate gothic lolita stylings, an aesthetic that isn't known for being easy to wear. 

Petticoats are like the manspreading of the fashion world, taking up large amounts space whenever the wearer sits. Stuffing one under a desk would be a task, but the girls in 11eyes have corsetted aprons with large bows in the back, sailor flaps, laced sleeves, hats and mini neckties. 

I can only imagine the time commitment of getting dressed every morning and ensuring all of the five bows are tied correctly. It's eight if you count most of the character's laced up boots, too. At least they aren't afflicted with Gosick's cravats.
