What will you do if school uniforms disappear?
What?
I'd rather die.
I didn't have time to make a new one, so I didn't understand why my teacher told me off.
If you were told to wear it now, would you wear it? - I would!
Hey guys it's Cathy Cat and today we are gonna go and ask Japanese people
if they prefer to wear school uniforms or not, when they go to school.
So let's go and Ask Japanese. Don't forget to subscribe for more videos from Japan.
School uniform VS normal clothes!
Do you understand the meaning? - I do.
You get it too, right? - No clue.
She is asking us if we prefer normal clothes or school uniforms.
Which one do you prefer? Please give us a vote.
School uniform.
School uniform is here, right?
You seem to have your own style, but you still prefer uniforms? Why so?
I like high school girls.
THAT'S your REASON?!
That is my reason. I will see cute school girls in the mornings on the train.
Just seeing them, I feel more happy.
They are so cute.
That's why I prefer school uniforms.
I believe that high school will save the world. That's why we need school uniforms.
High school girls. Why do you like school uniforms?
Thinking about what to wear every day was pretty tough.
That's why school uniforms are much easier.
You said it WAS hard to think about it every day. Does that mean you didn't have uniforms?
I went to a specialized college and had to wear normal clothes every day.
It was specializing in beauty and esthetics, and especially because of that
we had to look after our visual appearance .
But I found it really hard to think of a new style to wear every day.
Made me realize how much easier I had it with school uniforms?
Because it was a beauty school, you got a lot of pressure?
Yes that's right. After graduating I started dressing properly like this but...
When I was still in college I dressed black all the time and didn't really care.
We were just talking, saying that he has gotten a lot brighter these days.
In our college people would talk a lot about what people were wearing,
some people could even tell which brands people we were wearing.
That was... a real pain...
I didn't wear any exciting brands... - Some people wore Gucci
Gucci in college? - Yeah.
Some also said "There is a brand fight. That person is wearing Valencia!"
I just liked Uniqlo.
I tried to keep it secret. - Well that secret got out fast.
Were there some rules with your school uniform that you didn't understand?
The restrictions were really strong. We also HAD to wear a belt and such.
That was quite tough.
We had to wear a belt and weren't allowed to open the second shirt button.
The girl's skirts were too long. I prefer shorter skirts.
My high school was very strict. We had to wear a shirt but not a belt or specific socks.
We could wear any socks and shoes we liked.
Nothing else that bothered me. Just that the skirts were so long.
What do you do if school uniforms disappeared?
What?
I'd rather die!
I don't want to live a life in which I can't see school girls from time to time.
No use living.
They are a symbol. - Japan's kawaii symbol.
What type of school uniform is the cutest then?
I like blazer ones.
My high school had blazers. You too right?
I also had blazers.
Blazers are cute, right?
Do you prefer neck ties or bows?
We had neck ties and bows. - What do you prefer?
My high school had bows for girls . But I personally prefer neck ties.
I think bows are cuter.
We had one vote each. Why do you prefer normal clothes?
When I was in high school, I had to wear school uniforms and my sister didn't.
When wearing school uniforms, you get looked at differently on your way to and from school.
Buying school uniforms is very expensive, and you can only wear them for 3 years.
I think it would be better to wear what you want to wear.
How much was your uniform?
I bought mine second hand. I don't know how much full prize is.
It goes around 30,000 Yen.
That's quite expensive. - It is.
You also had to buy all accessories, the badges, the pins, even the socks.
It's expensive.
Why do you prefer school uniforms?
I simply think it's a hassle to think every day about what to wear.
I think wearing a decided coordinate, is a lot easier.
Furthermore...
... you can only wear a school uniform for 3 years in middle or high school.
It's a once-in-a-lifetime privilege.
I liked wearing school uniforms.
What type of school uniform was it?
I had blazers. I never wore a sailor school uniform.
What type of school uniform was yours?
In middle school I had a sailor school uniform and in high school a blazer.
Were there uniform rules that you didn't get along with?
In middle school... I was growing very quickly...
In one year I grew 20cm.
Because I grew so much, my skirt didn't cover my knees anymore.
I didn't have time to get a new skirt.
And my teacher took me aside to tell me off. I didn't think that was fair.
That's unfair. - Only girls that grow fast are getting into trouble.
There weren't any rules I didn't agree with but...
But there is one thing I found funny.
The school was loose on the rules, but there was a set time in which we had to
wear the uniforms in the strictest way possible.
For one week we had to wear it 100% according to the rules.
We had that and that was quite interesting.
A restricted time experience.
And at other times it was more loose?
Yeah, some girls even died their hair brown, shortened their skirts...
But during those weeks we had to have black hair and close our ties tight.
It was kind of strange.
I wonder if the reason was that teachers from another school came to check?
Once every 1/2 year they wanted to give us the experience to wear it properly.
In the UK, girls get the choice to wear trousers with their school uniform. What do you think about that?
I think that's good. Japan should have that choice too.
I envy the UK. Especially in winter. The male teachers will wear warm trousers...
and he will open the window for "fresh air" and only the girls in their skirts will suffer.
It was tough. I wish we had had the choice to wear trousers too.
Why do you like school uniforms?
When I was wearing school uniforms, I envied schools with normal clothes...
But thinking about it now, you save time to select clothes all the time.
Wearing the uniform for 3 years has become part of precious memories.
You never had to think about what to wear because it was all decided.
It was convenient to not waste any time on it in the morning.
Extra question. In the UK girls get the choice to wear trousers, but not in Japan.
If you were offered to wear trousers, would you have done it?
I prefer skirts.
Even in winter?
Even in winter. - Wow you are strong.
If it was normal for girls to wear trousers, I would have liked to wear trousers.
You wore school uniforms? - I did.
What type of uniform was it? - I had a blazer type.
The one that you wear on top.
What school uniform was yours? - In high school I had sailor uniforms.
Even in high school? - Yes.
What was good and bad about wearing one.
The summer school uniform was so cute... I did like it.
But the winter uniform was black and like moufuku. It wasn't cute.
What is mofuku? - It's a black mourning dress, black and simple.
That doesn't sound very cute. How about you?
The summer sailor school uniform was very cute.
But in winter it was really not cool.
In winter it was also sailor.
My school uniform was all just one color.
So in winter the sailor collar and all was one color.
It looked uncool.
Any advantages you've had wearing a school uniform?
What?
I wonder what.
Do you? - I got a part-time job because I was a high-school girl.
I went into the interview with my school uniform.
What kind of job was it? - The drugstore.
Why did you get a job, wearing a school uniform?
The owner of the store was simply into high school girls.
You voted for school uniforms, why so?
I am in university now. When I overslept in school, I would just whack on my uniform.
I wasn't late there, but now I have to choose my clothes...
I get late for school now.
When you don't have much time in the morning, it's pretty tough.
So in tight mornings it's convenient? - So convenient.
You can only wear school uniforms in school.
Now I can't wear it anymore, I wish I could.
Why do you want to wear it again?
It's a privilege.
If someone offered you to wear it now, would you? - Oh I would.
I will wear it for a day in Disneyland.
I won't wear it to university but...
I would wear it for a theme park.
Theme park school uniforms are a thing.
Do you have an advantage when you wear a school uniform?
You get lots of likes on Instagram.
Did you ever have any trouble?
If you don't go straight home from school, it will get out.
Is that against school rules? - It is.
Our school forbid making a side trip after school.
So when I was wearing my school uniform, I didn't do TACHIYORI.
Tachiyori? What do you mean?
Tachiyori is when you have food with school friends on your way home.
You were forbidden to go to shops or restaurants on the way home.
You had to go straight home.
Why is that so?
I actually... never questioned that... it's just a rule.
Those were all questions. Sorry for taking you time.
Cue?
Cue?
Not yet?
Ok school uniforms!
Big win for the school uniforms. Only one person said non-uniforms are fine.
What some people said actually, school uniforms they are practical
you don't have to think so much about it, though they are very expensive,
it's an only-once-in-a-lifetime experience that you're able to wear them.
Apparently there are also a some girls who select their school depending on how cute the uniform is.
Interesting stuff. So how is it for you are you for school uniforms or against it?
Let us know, I personally never had school uniforms, in Germany
they have been taken off or banned, no school uniforms for us there...
I wish we had had some cute school uniforms, so we didn't have to actually...
wear brand clothes and have other people pick on what kind of shoes you were wearing.
That was a total pain.
Let us know, how is it for you, School uniform yes or NO?
