Although I love seeing kids in the morning parade their pastel backpacks, I insisted that Miss M choose a sensible color like caramel/brown, red, or even black. (Traditionally, boys use black/navy bags and girls use red bags). Alas, I was outvoted and a โ€œchampagne pinkโ€ randsel arrived in late January. Random Japan Fact: Randsel became the default school bag after the Meji Emperor wore one when attending primary school. However, randsel are actually *NOT* required for Japanese public elementary schools! __________ . . . . . . . . . . #thewagamamadiaries #ๅ…ฅๅญฆใŠใ‚ใงใจใ† #japanlife #myjapan #everydayjapan #japanblog #japaninfo #love_kodomo_japan #kidsgram_tokyo #kjp_ootd #kids_japan_ootd #kidscode #mamanoko #tokyomama #ใ‚นใƒžใ‚คใƒซ่‚ฒๅ… #ๅญ่‚ฒใฆใใ‚‰ใ‚€ใ€€ #ใƒžใƒžๆ’ฎ #ใ‚ญใƒƒใ‚บใ‚ณใƒผใƒ‡ๅฅณใฎๅญใ€€ใ€€ #ๅ…ฅๅญฆใŠใ‚ใงใจใ† #ใƒ•ใ‚กใ‚คใƒณใƒ€ใƒผ่ถŠใ—็งใฎไธ–็•Œ #cherryblossoms #cherryblossomseason #ๆœ€ๅพŒใฎๆกœ #ใ‚ณใƒ‰ใƒขใƒ€ใ‚ซใƒฉ #ใƒžใƒžใƒฉใ‚คใƒ•ใ‚ซใƒกใƒฉใ€€ #ๆฑไบฌใƒžใƒž #ๆฑŸๆˆธๅทๅŒบใƒžใƒž #ๆ–ฐ1ๅนด็”Ÿ #ใƒฉใƒณใƒ‰ใ‚ปใƒซๆ’ฎๅฝฑ

The series revolutionized both anime and mecha culture, and the genius idea of #Gunpla (Gundam plastic models) emerged, allowing fans to build and customize their own plastic model kits. Miss M and I managed to get our hands on an ~elusive~ Gundam Calibran gunpla kit (by lining up on release day).

Itโ€™s a kidsโ€™ wardrobe staple for summer in Japan and theyโ€™re generally very affordable. I like to pair her jinbei (or any garment) with Airism tank tops from UNIQLO.
