The creepiest part of it is how the biggest defenders are always older guys who should know better.
And the biggest whiners are always American girls who want to think they can control any culture they want and demand all fandom bends to their tastes. It's not enough your country forcefully controlled and humiliated Japan you want to tell them how their idols should dress and act too .
um...I'm an older American male and I thought the outfits were too "mature" for them, and most of the defenders have been young feamle fans! So there's that...I liked the song and styling of 18 Emotion MUCH better, personally and think this is the single they should have pushed imho. That's S/mileage to me. Fun, light, genki...youthful. Completely age appropriate (even if some aren't 18 yet and I HOPE Meimei's not dating a college guy! lol)
