I just finished browsing Japanese School Girl Inferno. It's amazing how these girls have influenced fashion today. It's no surprise that Anime (Japanese animation or Japanamation) is trickling down into normal cartoons on Saturday morning. I also connect the new color choices of today to closely resemble Anime choices.
While not everyone goes to the extreme of the Harajuku gals (named after the famous street in Tokyo where they hang out) I've noticed the cute prints on bags and shirts. Branding is definitely part of the culture. Candy colors are too. It's now acceptable to have 30-ish females with Hello Kitty accessories, after all she's a famous cultural icon.
