Do you have a copy of the interviews (did you record any) that I could get? I am writing my undergraduate dissertation on gothloli and their speech preferences and would find it invaluable to have another set of data other than what I will collect in three weeks. Also, thank you! You'll definitely be credited in my thesis! vivre viva at gmail dot com

Thank you for such an informative study. The way these young people congregate and interact isn't unique; we have similar places in Birmingham, UK, where the younger members of our teen subcultures have always gathered. However, the "Harajuku Kids" excel in terms of their style - such "pretty young things". Absolutely fascinating. I'm pretty sure that our Child Protection activists here would be mortified that these youngsters are being photographed by "Ojisan" - its a crazy world when children are taught that their elders are an automatic threat to their safety (and a true shame) - lovely to see that Japan, as ever, has a refreshing view. Wonderful study.
