Have you ever wondered how important it became Sono Bisque Doll wa Koi wo Suru (My Dress Up Darling)? Premiered during the season of Winter-2022 (January-March)fans like to say that this series is over”overshadowing large productions” as Kimetsu no Yaiba: Yuukakuhen and Shingeki no Kyojin: The Final Seasonand although this is open to discussion, it cannot be denied that the story of Marin Kitagawa was definitely a turning point within the industry.
In the same way that Kirito from Sword Art Online became a benchmark for the isekai (without being, according to the strict sense of the word), Marin Kitagawa also became a benchmark for gal stories. (also known as gyarus). Gals are teenage girls obsessed with every last detail of their beauty. They do makeup, do their hair and nails, buy a lot of clothes and accessories, dye their hair, tan, keep a slim figure, and wear a lot of flashy clothes.
In the past, Yukana Yame of Hajimete no Gal and Galko of Please tell me! Galko-chan They were the referents of the gals in the anime, but Marin Kitagawa ended up taking that position. However, some consider that “this reign is in danger” now that more information has been revealed for the anime adaptation of the manga. Hokkaido Gals Are Super Adorable! (Dosanko Gal wa Namara Menkoi), made by Minami Fuyukiwho is also a gal.
Minami Fuyuki is the protagonist Tsubasa’s 16-year classmate at Kitami Hokuryo High School, being popular and talkative. Follow the gal subculture; she dyes her hair blonde, wears short skirts in winter, and refuses to wear gloves in winter so she can still use her phone. He has a very caring personality and always tries to live up to the expectations of his classmates.
With a description and appearance like that, it was inevitable that fans would start calling her “the new Marin Kitagawa.” Certainly the Marin story is taking a long time to come back and is allowing “competition to surface.” With a new anime project announced almost a year ago, there is no more news about the continuation of Sono Bisque Doll wa Koi wo Suru (My Dress Up Darling) since then.
and regarding Hokkaido Gals Are Super Adorable! (Dosanko Gal wa Namara Menkoi), the series is being produced by the studio collaboration of SILVER LINK and Bladewhile its premiere is scheduled for the month of January 2024 in Japan. While these studies do not compete in any way with CloverWorksit is certainly more likely that this production will have a sequel if it achieves moderate success, unlike the projects that the former A-1 Pictures subsidiary usually does.
And if you are interested in the synopsis of Hokkaido Gals Are Super Adorable!is described as follows:
