As yahoo finally completed fucking over yet another great platform (after Flickr, western & japanese Geocities, Del.icio.us and Polyvore) and now considers selling it, please remember to archive great j-fashion blogs and resources if you have some free time. A good tool for this is TumblrThree. Remember to activate all boxes except the last 3 to save textposts, replies, asks and videos too.

That being said, would anyone be up for an Archive General? I feel like with the direction the internet is headed, a lot of history will be lost soon. We could upload what we already archived and what cgl has already posted over the years, share tools and instructions, share what we have found, share scans, anons could voice requests, maybe we could even organize some groups every thread to effectively save the massive amount of content on lj to the waybackmachine.
You know, just a data collection that is easy to search for and regularly updated and a place to talk about old stuff.

I just wish JetJ would make luxurious dresses with pintuck detailing, delicate lace, and actual craftsmanship again instead of lazy prints.

They were still doing it on and off last year, but the cost per dress had risen to 60-80k yen. I can see a negative loop with girls not buying, the prices becoming steeper, and then JetJ eventually stops.

Lol fuck off. I don’t need to hear someone try to take some fake moral high ground when you’re posting on cgl, which has plenty of screencapping of communities and shit talking lolitas behind their backs. It’s important to archive shit with everything from scammers to chronic liars who think they can get away with anything. If you don’t, they will get away with their behavior and make more victims and ruin more communities.

It sounds like you probably got called out by someone archiving that “negative shit”. It also sounds like you probably deserved it. You’re one of those people that go “archivers are meanie stalkers” because you have something to hide and don’t want to be held accountable for your actions.

I keep finding things I want to read and can't. Fuck it, would anyone be interested in a translation thread? I can't speak Japanese but I've had moderate success by using various translation services, comparing their results, and turning it into understandable English.

I associate the behaviour of the ones wearing it/looking for it more than anything else. Like the group of anons that made several threads for "rare" dresses and most were just anons moaning about their safely rare, unobtainable jellyfish dress, thus you can never one-up them because their dress can never be bought, no one can be more woeful nor feelier than them, and so on. I think the whining went on for 2-3 threads straight, drowning out other anons who wanted to talk about any other dream dress, just rehashing "their feels" over and over.

I've always associated that dress with attention-seeking behaviour since then. Probably unfortunate for the ones that have nothing to do with that mess, sorry about that.

Translation Part 1

Fall even more in love with lolita fashion!

(President of the Japan Lolita Association)
Interview with Aoki Misako [AM]
Interviewed by the creator of “The Clothes I Want to Wear”, Tsuneki Netaro [TN]

TN: First I’d like to know, what is the appeal of lolita fashion in your view?

AM: All women, no matter how old they are, keep a wish within them to become a princess, which lolita fashion helps to come true. There is a kind of girly sparkling atmosphere, a “kawaii magic” that permeates everything in lolita.

TN: The main character, Mami, in the manga [The Clothes I Want to Wear], is a university student who has passed her Japanese Teaching Staff Examination and will start as an elementary school teacher next spring. Since wearing lolita every day as normal clothes makes you stand out, there is a scene in the manga where she questions whether the clothes will have an effect on her job. You are known for working as both a model and a nurse at the same time, so I’d like to ask you if lolita fashion has had an impact on your nursing job, positive or negative?

AM: Yes it has. In a positive way, it has broadened my field of view on things. Both in being a lolita model and a nurse, they share the aspect of making people smile, but in completely different ways and spheres. Since these worlds are so different but come from the same root, it helps me see both in a balanced way.

TN: I see! I wish you could share this with Mami!

>> No.10192112

>>10192109
Part 2

AM: On the other hand about negative effects, unfortunately, as you might expect, people do tend to think of you as a strange person. Especially for jobs where you’re in contact with children, their guardians might look at you extra strictly and ask to discuss your clothing choices (it happens to me, too). People have come to understand that it’s a fashion style, but it seems as though they don’t yet forgive it as everyday wear. When I’m a nurse, I change into my nurse uniform so I suppose it’s fine in my case. But if I were to have a job where I could wear lolita, I’d probably choose dark colors like black and wear a light petticoat.

TN: From the second episode of the manga on, the main character Mami is getting into lolita but isn’t able to wear it skillfully everyday, and has lots of concerns like “I don’t know where and when I should wear it” and “I can’t find friends with the same interests”. In big cities there are tea parties where you can meet other lolitas but how do you make lolita friends in small towns?

AM: Nowadays we have social media so it’s different than it was in my teens~20s, and it’s not necessary to take trips from small towns into the city like it once was. You can make friends online and arrange small scale tea parties with 4-5 people in your local area. This way it makes it easier for people all over Japan to enjoy lolita fashion and it makes me really happy to see that. My goal is to promote lolita fashion and I want to see more lolitas out and about on the street, however, if you don’t have a chance to wear it out and prefer to wear it indoors, you can update your social media with your coord, and enjoy wearing lolita in your own preferred way.

>> No.10192113

>>10192112
Part 3

TN: Finally, I’d like to ask your advice - the main character of the manga, Mami, is over 170cm tall, and has more of a sexy or modelesque figure and worries that sweet lolita doesn’t suit her. Do you have any tips for how Mami should wear lolita?

AM: Hmmm. For example, the typical lolita silhouette has a knee length hemline, but lately long length dresses are popular, and they look great on tall people. Another good look for tall people is to wear black and choose “cool” lolita items, basically gothic lolita will probably suit her well if she wants to go that way.

TN: Thank you!

Some sad news that I don't think was posted. TyakeTyoke closed on May 24, 2019. The brand is suspended and they'll finish out remaining orders.
This was a shop that did make custom shoes in a large range of sizes. They also had the option for leather. For those that don't fit standard Japanese shoe sizes, they were an excellent option as you could customize the color/heel/size/straps. They collaborated with a lot of different brands, one being JetJ.

I'm really sad about this and I wish I would have ordered more shoes is the past.

That makes me really sad too, then. It’s just such a shame quality Japanese items can’t seem to compete with cheap Chinese shoes.
At least I bought a pair of JetJ collab shoes from them. The idea they’re never going to get a rerelease is really sad to me.

I think maybe if they did more lolita styled shoes, they could’ve gotten Chinese lolita’s money. I think catering to sweet a bit more and collabing with AP or Baby would’ve probably have saved them. Classic lolita brands have been suffering and the cosplay inspired brands like Super Groupies don’t really have that kind of power and following.

God if they collaborated with Baby that would have been amazing. Baby's shoe designs are already great, I'm just imagining having them in leather.
They seemed to market towards the gothic brands though, that's how I initially heard about them. I wish they had pushed a little harder though.

They weren't really aiming for the lolita market, though. They were just a Japanese shoe brand with some quirky designs that might incidentally work with some lolita, sometimes. Why should lolitas be blamed for it?

I think that's even part of their downfall. Sure, they did JetJ collabs by the end, but it was literally too late for them by then. If they would've aggressively tried to break into the lolita market with lots of lolita specific designs and collabs with other brands, I have no doubt they would've been embraced. We've been starving for comfortable, leather optional, and quality made lolita shoes for years.

I feel utterly betrayed that she would do this. I sung praise for her in some yt-thread that she tastefully alluded to /cgl/ without being on the nose. Now I feel punched, on the nose, with BBandB jewelry shatters in my wounds.

Still, it was inevitable, wasn't it? She's a content creator who's covering a very small niche with disproportionate success. The demand for more videos never ceases. It makes sense that she'd have to go here, sooner or later.

But fuck you Tyler, this place raised me as a lolita. I came here for cosplay but fell down the wrong rabbit hole. I never feel at home in the pissy Facebook community or the Instagram static. This place is hard, cold and rough, but I've held on here so long that it has gotten warm and familiar. Now you've opened the door for everyone to storm the place. I teared up as the dread set in while watching your video.

Today has been a shit day and I feel like crying. Call me a roleplayer all you want, you Texan cunt, but my fee-fees are hurt and I know you will read this. Include me in your spicy followup video when you review and counter all the hate mail and/or posts you got from this debacle.

Yeah, you get me. Critique the "community" here but I think it's very human to establish a social bond no matter how absurd it is. If people can have pet bumblebees I can identify with a bunch of text from unknown senders on the internet. Sometimes we're funny. Sometimes true sparks of well meaning messages are thrown across the ocean of data like messages in bottles, hoping that the recipient will find them well. Other than that, there's an intense sense if community in railing on some it's who came here to defend herself after getting posted, revealing that she's both awfully dressed AND stupid. The faceless mob is a mob nonetheless.

There have been at least one or two videos showcasing images from here, particularly ones where the names were covered with specific colors and in ways that were also posted here. (They were particularly conversations from Rufflechat that had been edited). Either a) she pulled them from here b) she made them herself or someone she knows did and then posted them or c) they were posted on a separate site that no one knows about. Considering that her videos came out about some of these subjects almost a day after they were posted here, (and these screens were posted here before said threads were quickly deleted), it's safe to assume the first one is the most likely. I don't remember if there were any videos that had screenshots of the board itself, though, but probably not.

The video was just plain misrepresenting cgl, at least in its modern state. Back in the day we had tons of lolcows and drama. It's still a 4chan(nel) board, so it's still full of salt and trolls, but there is definitely a community and a lot of nice anons here. There are a lot of great things on this board right now. Just off the top of my head, there's the translators in this thread, honey cake sock anon, draw threads, dd threads (minus scalpers) (I know telephone chan got her skirt months ago, but I just wanna say congrats rn anyway. That was such a good thread and thinking about it makes me happy), all the threads that are literally just inspo dumbs (because this IS and imageboard, after all), sewing threads, bst threads (especially when anons offer discounts to gulls), and there's tons of other stuff that I'm probably forgetting. I'd be lying if I said I'd never posted someone to the ita thread, and the beauty of anonimity is that you can be an asshole and get away with it, but it also brings out the best in people and shows that people can be nice without any alterior motives. Every time this site makes me lose faith in humanity, something happens here that immediately restores it. I love you guys, salt and all. Being a bitch for keks is great fun, but I love being apart of a group of strangers who work together to create great things.

>Saying shit like "sissies are weird" isn't exactly groundbreaking, but no one else is saying it so people just eat them up.
Pretty much. Some lolitas treat her like she's some beacon of salt meme mommy uwu when really she's just saying the things that everyone, no matter how nice was thinking. Yes, sissies are creepy, John Leigh is creepy and Kelly Eden is a dumbass bimbo who can't read numbers. She plays into the 'lady of salt' persona with her pins and shit but really she's just the only efamous lolita who's not too chickenshit to say what everyone else is thinking on a public platform.

Gulls who put her on some pedestal like she's 'one of us' are delusional and I'm convinced the gulls on here who used to sing her praises have only seen a handful of her videos. She's maybe referenced seagulls once or twice but most of her content is just random anecdotes from rufflechat or US centric political rants/history lessons no one cares about that only vaguely relate to the fashion. Lolitas are just so starved for content that they take what they can get but at the end of the day, she's always been just as attention seeking and desperate to be liked as Lor. She just gets a pass for it on here because she's not fat and ugly and has a huge wardrobe.

Exactly! Other lolita YTers are always trying to be lovelies so they never criticize anyone. It's not that Tyler's good at what she does, she's just the only one doing it. It's why she only goes for low-hanging fruit that she knows won't garner criticism, or "controversial" opinions like "black people should be able to wear lolita", which isn't really controversial at all. Her video segments are lazy re-readings of Rufflechat.

>> No.10193545

I still like her but I think her video was ill-advised. Agreeing with >>10193467. I do think it's a little hypocritical how after all the "Why doesn't she just admit she posts here?????" when she finally does everyone gets mad. But yeah she mishandled it so I'm not surprised.

>> No.10193546

>>10193545
I complained about her not admitting it in the youtube thread that mostly revolved around her.

Her advice wasn't even good. "Consider your source"? What kind of shit tier advice is that? People who get posted here aren't retarded, they know that both itas AND well-dressed people post here.

Zakamo, the super cute manga about a women just talking about food and enjoying a drink after work, took three years to be an anime (12 episodes, each 6-8 minutes long) and then another two years to get that manga translated. It's finally coming out this year. And that's on a topic that's popular! I can see this one taking a decade to get anything official in the works sadly.

I interpreted it as: by discrediting gulls as a whole, she's attempting to give an ego boost to people who feel bad because they were posted here. A la:

We already had this discussion several threads ago with anon using Will Smith as an example. Just because she's "lolita yt famous" doesn't mean nitpicking every single bit about her and viciously fighting every time she is mentioned in a vaguely good light isn't obsessive and borderline psychotic.
