A subtrope of Limited Wardrobe. Schools that require their students to wear uniforms are a common sight around the world. Given that Changing Clothes Is a Free Action doesn't apply in Real Life, it's not surprising to see students lounging around malls and shopping centers wearing them, as it shows that they just got out of school. However, there are certain characters out there who, even on their days off, will still choose to forgo their chance to wear casual clothes and instead wear their standard school clothes. A common explanation for this is that the student can't afford any other outfits and only has the uniform to wear, but that is not always the case. Another reason could be an individual's desire to show that they are part of a group. There have even been cases where schools require their students to wear their uniforms even outside of class. Or maybe they're just that damn comfy. Of course, this is sometimes done with Fanservice in mind, since uniforms are very often appealing to fetish. (See also Catholic School Girls Rule, Sailor Fuku.) School uniforms are also a part of the Gyaru Girl (specifically kogal) fashion style, so characters who wear them all the time may be part of that subculture. During a Beach Episode, the most straight-laced female member of the cast will typically be depicted wearing a school-issue swimsuit rather than a more daring bikini. Of course, there are exceptions to the rule. Can overlap with Transfer Student Uniforms when a student continues to wear their old uniform at a new school that doesn't have one. Compare Non-Uniform Uniform. |

Twins Sara and Sojyu of Futakoi Alternative are rarely seen out of their primary outfits, which appear to be school uniforms. School is rarely ever mentioned in the series, and never shown. They even spend an entire Sunday lounging about in their uniforms. | |

Kamen Rider Fourze has the transfer student variant. Until the change of seasons necessitated other clothing, we never see him out of it, even during an outing to a karaoke bar after hours. It also counts as a Non-Uniform Uniform since it comes with a different Fun T-Shirt each time. | |

When the girls of Puella Magi Madoka Magica aren't in their Magical Girl outfit they're in their school uniform. Except Kyouko, who doesn't go to school (not that she has anymore variety). There are some exceptions, since Madoka appears wearing her pajamas in episode 6 and Homura uses casual clothing in the last chapter of the manga (she still uses the school uniform in the anime though). Homura's Magical Girl outfit looks really like a school uniform. You might mistake that she never transforms at all because of its appearance. It becomes truly ridiculous in Episode 7; Sayaka decides to skip school due to certain recent events, but when Kyouko calls her out for a talk, she wears her uniform anyway. In the manga, however, she wears a casual outfit. | |

The identical yellow and black outfits worn by the X-Men before they "graduate" from Professor Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters is a superhero version of this trope. The Stepford Cuckoos, as the Three-in-One, often wear various prep school uniforms, even though the School doesn't require its students to do so. |

Bleach: Averted with the high school characters: while they all wear uniforms for class and school-sponsored extracurriculars, they wear street clothes at home. Even the Shinigami have street clothes to wear off-duty. Tite Kubo really doesn't like the Limited Wardrobe trope. He reportedly wanted to go into fashion or design, according to some interviews back in '06. Vizard Yadomaru Lisa wears a (modern) school uniform, despite having been dead for over a century. Since her time as a Shinigami was spent as Kyoraku Shunsui's lieutenant, though, maybe it's just habitual. Not to mention she isn't that different from Kyoraku, maybe even worse, given that she likes to peep on other people's matters and reads pornographic magazines in public with absolutely no shame. |

Kamiyama from Cromartie High School wears his school uniform even when going out for shopping and stopping local gangsters with his super powered Mechazawa Motorcycle Hell. Every other character does the same (except, obviously, if they don't usually wear school uniforms). The only time we see any of the student characters out of uniform is when Hokuto wakes up at his home - he's in his PJs. | |

In American Dreams, the youngest son, Will, tended to wear his Catholic school uniform all day. Partly justified by the fact that his polio and leg brace would make it difficult to change pants in the middle of the day- but that doesn't explain keeping the tie on. The same was true of Meg, J.J. and Patty but not to the same extent. |

El-Hazard: The Magnificent World both averts and justifies it. While the initial series plays it straight, in later series, Makoto is wearing native clothing. Jinnai continues to wear his school uniform, but this may simply be because, living with the Bugrom, getting new clothing is too much of a hassle. | |

In My-Otome, the girls of Garderobe Academy are required to wear their uniforms everywhere. In one episode, Arika's briefly goes missing, believed to have been stolen and/or sold on the black market, since Otome merchandise is a very hot commodity. There are some exceptions, such as when Akane's on a date with Kazuya or when Nao's part of the Stripes gang, activities that they don't want to be associated with them as Otomes in training. | |

Weird school rules in Hong Kong: Defied by some schools in Hong Kong. Episode 2 off-handedly mentions that some schools prohibited students from going out with their classmates; Episode 17 goes as far as to mention some of those schools have resorted to require the students' parents to check their children's WhatsApp every day to see if they ever went out with their classmates, while others forced all the students to immediately go home after school was over and that anyone who didn't would be caught by the teachers, and this included staying at school after classes to study. | |

The Harry Potter series doesn't really describe what the characters are wearing outside of class, but it can be assumed that they're wearing their school robes (or at least some sort of robes). The movies except the first avert this by having them wear muggle clothing everywhere, even the pure-bloods who have no concept of what muggles would wear. This is because when WB did market research after the first one, they found out that general audiences didn’t like the uniforms/robes. | |

In Princess Tutu, Rue and Mytho are rarely seen outside of their school uniforms, even when we often see other students from the school in casual outfits on their days off. For Rue, it's probably because she's the daughter of the Raven, and probably doesn't have any human clothes outside of her school stuff and the outfit she wore for the festival, for Mytho it could just be because Fakir didn't want to bother. Autor is also never seen in anything but his school uniform. | |

During the early chapters of Takeo-chan Bukkairoku, Takeo wears only her school's winter uniform and states outright it is the only clothing she owns. Her reasons for not owning more are because her Born Unlucky status causes the various misfortunes that befall her to ruin any other clothing. In the case of the uniform, it's black so it's not obvious when it gets dirty due to her mishaps while the long sleeves also provide some protection for her arms. When the youkai she lives with realize this, they take steps to alleviate the curse that causes her misfortune enough that she can at least wear other clothing freely. Following that chapter, and thanks to her housemates giving her clothes as gifts, Takeo wears a wider variety of clothing afterward. | |

The Hives are famous for performing in matching outfits with a black-and-white colour scheme which have included school uniforms with blazers featuring a crest with a prominent H. British TV host, Jonathon Ross described the look as "half rock band, half Hogwarts Sixth Form outing". | |

Yugi from Yu-Gi-Oh! always wears a variation of his school uniform during the various card game tournaments he competes in. This is lampshaded in the manga. When told he doesn't have to wear his uniform at the weekend, his response is "why not?", and he appears to be genuinely puzzled by the concept. Interestingly, the first time he DOES wear casual clothes in the anime (during the group's game against Otogi/Duke), no one says a word about it. The Abridged Series mocks this (which should come as no surprise, since it mocks everything else) in episode 22. The episode is half-way over before Yugi thinks to himself, "Isn't anyone going to notice that I'm not wearing my school uniform?" | |

Neon Genesis Evangelion: Shinji Ikari will wear his school uniform even when he goes out at night to wander the streets of Tokyo-3. Whenever there's some sort of vision that isn't an Out-of-Clothes Experience, like while deciding the fate of the world or rejecting Instrumentality and ending up on the beach, Shinji will be wearing his school uniform. Rei Ayanami always wears her plugsuit or school uniform, because she's too asocial to care at all about fashion. It's plausible she literally doesn't own any other clothes. Mari in Rebuild of Evangelion wears a school uniform the one time we see her in something other than her plugsuit. In a ridiculous extension, the third Rebuild movie has Shinji and Kaworu walk around in school uniforms even when they live in a post-apocalyptic wasteland where there hasn't been a school on this planet for over a decade. May serve to highlight Shinji's status as a Fish out of Temporal Water. |

Kagome of Inuyasha frequently strolls around in modern-day school outfit in feudal Japan. Of special note is one moment from the first movie; she's about to return to the past wearing a miko outfit which is definitely period-appropriate, seeing as how she was given it while she was in the past. Her mother makes a point of stopping her right before she jumps into the well specifically to hand her a newly-cleaned school uniform to change into. In the anime, Kagome doesn't wear her school uniform on her first planned excursion through the well, but more practical clothes. Fans complained, and all subsequent journeys would be in her school uniform. And as it turned out, it caused a Stable Time Loop. Her legendary exploits, all done in her school uniform, led to the invention of the Sailor Fuku in the first place. Rumiko Takahashi said in an interview (with her tongue firmly planted in her cheek, no doubt) that Kagome prefers to wear her uniform because it's durable and easy to clean. |

Hitomi from The Vision of Escaflowne wears her school uniform despite being on a completely different world. Justified in that the only other clothes she has with her are her running clothes. However, given the amount of action she sees, her sweats might have been a more practical choice of dress. | |

The cast from Senran Kagura wear their school uniforms wherever they go (unless you change their costumes), even when being on a mission, unless they activate Shinobi Transformation... besides Homura, whose transformation is to just wear wrist guards with her school uniform. She and the rest of her group change to different set of casual costumes, with Homura gaining a new Shinobi Transformation costume, once they abandon their school. Given that most of the cast is to varying degrees pretending to be normal high school students, this is probably policy: as individuals many of them have an abnomal upbringing and need constant reminder of their cover, and in groups wearing matching school uniforms goes a long way towards explaining the presence in a random location of a group of teenage girls... especially during school hours. | |

Persona 3: As SEES is technically a school club, the crew wear their school uniforms for club related activities, complete with a red "SEES" armband. Though in this case, "club related activities" means hunting shadows, planning and executing missions, and other things that are definitely not normal extracurricular activities. It does add a sense of professionalism to the whole thing, and their stylishness cannot be argued. The remake of the game, Reload, provides SEES with some overhaul to their uniforms to make them look more ready for combat in the dark hour. They receive this overhaul after the third full moon operation. Even then it’s still played straight. Justified by Moon Social Link Nozomi Suemitsu, who mentions that he always wears his school uniform in casual settings because it's the only outfit he has that fits him. |

While Persona 5 mostly averts this trope (instead providing the Thieves with stylish costumes they automatically transform into), you can play it straight in the dungeons by equipping your party with not just your school's uniforms, but the ones from previous Persona games (and even Shin Megami Tensei if...) as well. | |

Kyousuke Hyoubu in Psychic Squad is often criticized by some people (particularly his comrades from his terrorist organization) for wearing the gakuran school uniform all the time, which is sometimes seen as a sign of his childishness. In a supplemental 4-panel strip, we find out that before that he used to wear his old WWII air force uniform, switching to the school uniform after repeated requests from his comrades to start wearing civilian clothes. (Which gakuran technically is, but notice that it still has a military look!) The only time he attempted to wear casual clothes, when going on a date with The Children and on explicit request from his comrades, a pretty messy Clothing Damage happened, which made his comrades give up and let him keep wearing the school uniform. | |

Maka of Soul Eater is almost always seen wearing some kind of school uniform - be it at school itself, when out on missions (coupled with her signature black longcoat) or just hanging out. She also gets a much snazzier new choice of uniform when Spartoi is formed. Soul Eater Not! shows there's a very liberal attitude to uniforms at Shibusen, and students can wear whatever they want, but it is a fashion of sorts to design your own school-uniform-type outfit and wear that every day. Given the potentially abrupt and far-ranging nature of school activities, it may also be convenient for students to be able to plausibly argue to random authorities they are students, which would somewhat justify a policy aimed at encouraging them to "look like they could be with the DWMA" at all times. | |

The Owl House: Most Hexside students are only ever seen wearing their school uniform -even on days where they don't have school- though they do all get dressed up for Grom. The only ones who have casual outfits are Luz's circle of friends, Amity's older siblings, Mattholomule, Boscha, and Skara (and in the case of the last two, it's only during a flashback to their pre-Hexside days). Even Eda and Lilith are not shown wearing anything other than their Hexside uniforms during flashbacks to their childhood (aside from a photo of them wearing grudgby outfits). | |

When Degrassi had uniforms, the scenes at The Dot after school had the place awash with teenagers in khakis and jellybean-colored polos. Season 12 features a storyline in which Zig is still wearing the once-regulation khakis in school after uniforms were abolished, because his family couldn't afford to replace a still-usable pair of pants. Clare started at Degrassi after attending a Christian private school, but left her old school uniform on for a year before getting new clothes. |

Daily Lives of High School Boys zigzags this trope. The main trio wears their school uniform even it's summer vacation or Christmas—but there were a few scenes in High School Boys and Summer Memories skit when they wore casual clothes. This trope was also invoked once in High School Boys and Summer Plans when Hidenori asked Karasawa to wear school uniforms to join a meeting on vacation planning in which the other participants are already wearing school uniforms. | |

Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V: Played with Yuya. The only cloth of his school uniform he is always wearing in- and outside school is his jacket which he wears as a Coat Cape. Yuzu wears a Non-Uniform Uniform. She wears it all the time until the climax of the first season, where she switches her clothes with Serena, who is wearing her uniform as well. After that, Yuzu keeps switching outfits throughout the series. Sawatari and his three lackeys seem to wear their uniforms everywhere. Most of Academia's students wear their uniforms everywhere. This is justified since their school uniforms double as military uniforms. |

Kyo from The King of Fighters has entered various competitions while wearing his school uniform. Shingo Yabuki does so as well but that's more attributed to the fact that he wants to emulate Kyo as much as he can. From KOF '99 and onward, he changes his outfit, but his numerous clones wear his old school uniform. Funnily enough, despite his uniform being considered an iconic part of his character, Kyo left school without graduating. |

A slight variation in Glee is the cheerleaders wearing their uniforms all day every day. At many high schools, cheerleaders wear their uniforms to classes on game days, but not other days, and not outside of school. Don't forget the Warblers, who don't dress down even when school's out. Although it tends to vary for the Warblers; it seems as though they wear their uniforms during all performances, even at night or on the weekends (like Silly Love Songs or the GAP Attack) and/or if the other performers are in costume, but Blaine and Kurt both dress down for Rachel's party. |

A staple of the Persona series, used to emphasize that the protagonists are (or at least, used to be) Ordinary High School Students caught up in events caught up in events that are way over their heads. They will usually stick to the uniforms for the entire adventure, and can you blame them when those uniforms are that stylish? In the first Persona game, this is justified since the Zombie Apocalypse leaves them no time for a reasonable wardrobe change. But since they're stylish, who's complaining? Persona 2: Innocent Sin, high school characters keep their uniforms on throughout the game, despite getting plenty of opportunities to change. In Eternal Punishment, Tatsuya finally ditches the uniform for a stylish red tracksuit though. Persona 3: As SEES is technically a school club, the crew wear their school uniforms for club related activities, complete with a red "SEES" armband. Though in this case, "club related activities" means hunting shadows, planning and executing missions, and other things that are definitely not normal extracurricular activities. It does add a sense of professionalism to the whole thing, and their stylishness cannot be argued. The remake of the game, Reload, provides SEES with some overhaul to their uniforms to make them look more ready for combat in the dark hour. They receive this overhaul after the third full moon operation. Even then it’s still played straight. Justified by Moon Social Link Nozomi Suemitsu, who mentions that he always wears his school uniform in casual settings because it's the only outfit he has that fits him. Justified (or at least Hand Waved) in Persona 4 where the Investigation Team wear their uniforms as a means of concealing their activities. Since the safest entrancenote Technically they could use any TV to enter that world, but it is very dangerous to do so since there's no way to tell where they might wind up if they did that, and the TV world is not a safe place to wander around in to the TV World lies within the local department store, they can't exactly carry their weapons and armor out in the open (in fact, Yosuke and the Protagonist got arrested for doing just that). They come up with the solution to use their school gear to smuggle it in, and to avoid unwanted attention. Of course, the uniforms are still very stylish. While Persona 5 mostly averts this trope (instead providing the Thieves with stylish costumes they automatically transform into), you can play it straight in the dungeons by equipping your party with not just your school's uniforms, but the ones from previous Persona games (and even Shin Megami Tensei if...) as well. |

The daughter in The Purge bizarrely decides to hang around in her school uniform even though she's home and it's nearly dark when the movie starts.

Lelouch vi Britannia of Code Geass usually wears either his school uniform or his superhero Zero costume (though he does have one "street clothes" outfit that he wears from time to time). In fact, he was even wearing his school uniform at the end of R2 episode 21, when he arranged a live, international broadcast at the Britannian capital's throne room, sat down in the throne, and calmly announced in front of a huge crowd of nobles and royals that he was the new emperor now that he had murdered the old one. Of course, it does help that his uniform would be seen as a status symbol, since Ashford Academy is mostly attended by affluent Britannians. It might also make people let down their guard, because how dangerous could a high school student really be? As well, the Royal Guard leader who found Lelouch in the first episode correctly identified Lelouch as a Britannian student in the ghetto before trying to kill him, so it likely helps students get by if they're ever outside the settlements. | |

Reisen Udongein Inaba from the Touhou Project game Imperishable Night wears a uniform composed of a long-sleeved black suit jacket, tie, and short skirt, similar to a private school uniform.. For that matter, Touhou plays the Limited Wardrobe sister trope in general, except for Reimu and Marisa, where it's averted and Sanae where this trope here is inverted (she wears a Miko uniform most of the time but rarely an actual School uniform). |

Yu-Gi-Oh! Yugi from Yu-Gi-Oh! always wears a variation of his school uniform during the various card game tournaments he competes in. This is lampshaded in the manga. When told he doesn't have to wear his uniform at the weekend, his response is "why not?", and he appears to be genuinely puzzled by the concept. Interestingly, the first time he DOES wear casual clothes in the anime (during the group's game against Otogi/Duke), no one says a word about it. The Abridged Series mocks this (which should come as no surprise, since it mocks everything else) in episode 22. The episode is half-way over before Yugi thinks to himself, "Isn't anyone going to notice that I'm not wearing my school uniform?" Mostly justified in Yu-Gi-Oh! GX, since Duel Academia is on an island, and sometimes when the students spontaneously find themselves in a different dimension, they wear their uniforms. However, why was Kaiser/Zane wearing his school uniform in the Duelist League after graduating from Duel Academia? (He ditches it for a black coat, anyway.) Averted in Yu-Gi-Oh! 5Ds, where Aki and the twins the only main characters who are students and they only wear their uniforms during school, and Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL, where the students wear their casual clothes more often than their school uniforms. Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V: Played with Yuya. The only cloth of his school uniform he is always wearing in- and outside school is his jacket which he wears as a Coat Cape. Yuzu wears a Non-Uniform Uniform. She wears it all the time until the climax of the first season, where she switches her clothes with Serena, who is wearing her uniform as well. After that, Yuzu keeps switching outfits throughout the series. Sawatari and his three lackeys seem to wear their uniforms everywhere. Most of Academia's students wear their uniforms everywhere. This is justified since their school uniforms double as military uniforms. |

In Saki, the high school-age girls are most often seen in their uniforms, even outside of class. It's somewhat justified as far as the tournament goes, since they're representing their schools (Senriyama's Hiroko makes Sera change into her uniform for matches, which results in Ako getting the idea to get Shizuno to do the same) in tournaments, although it doesn't seem to be an official rule, as not all of them do that. Eisui's players wear Miko robes, while Ryuumonbuchi's players wear their own clothes to the point where it could be considered an inversion; they have never been seen wearing school uniforms, and the fact that they don't is referenced in Saki Biyori. | |

Jotaro even manages to get a replacement jacket specially woven in Pakistan when he lost his original one against ZZ during Wheel of Fortune, while Kakyoin sunbathed in his off-screen. JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Diamond is Unbreakable: This becomes extremely prevalent in Part 4, where the large majority of the characters are high schoolers, and almost never take off their Custom Uniforms. The only real exceptions from under this rule are Koichi and Yukako, who wear casual street outfits on several occasions, but the rest of the cast are repeat offenders of this trope. In particular, Josuke doesn't even take his uniform off at home, which earned him a lampshade by his mom. Josuke may also be attempting to intentionally invoke this given that he styles himself after a Japanese Delinquent who saved him as a child while wearing a school uniform, and a stereotype of Japanese Delinquents is that they don school uniforms as part of their getup. JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Crazy Diamond's Demonic Heartbreak: The spin-off prequel takes place during the spring break before a new school term begins, and has Josuke and Ryoko Kakyoin wearing their respective high school uniforms despite Josuke having not officially enrolled his high school yet, while Ryoko has already just graduated from high school. Josuke wearing his uniform represents him looking forward to the next part of his life, and Ryoko wearing her uniform represents her clinging to the past. |

In classic Doctor Who one of the Fifth Doctor's companions, Turlough, is introduced as an English schoolboy. It's soon revealed that he's not what he seems and he joins the Doctor in his travels through time and space...but never removes the uniform! (except once, memorably, to trade it in for some hot pants and a speedo.) After his first story, though, his invented story as a schoolboy is never brought up again, and as Turlough doesn't come across as school-age, the rest of his tenure sees him as a young adult in a suit. | |

Academagia: During the school year, all students are required to were clearly identifiable school uniforms basically everywhere but their rooms. Furthermore, each college has its own variation on design and color scheme.

Justified in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet where the academy your Player Character attends has a ground rule that the uniform must be worn at all times while representing the school, even though you're on the region-wide "Treasure Hunt" self-study tour since that's a school activity. Because of this, the Character Customization is limited to four fixed seasonal variants of the uniform while accessories like hats, gloves and phone cases are fair game. | |

Jimmy Hopkins from Bully frequently visits the town near his school in his school uniform during his days off. Of course this is mainly attributed to the player choosing to do so as opposed to the character. | |

The Delightful Children from Down The Lane in Codename: Kids Next Door wear school uniforms at all times despite going to a school that doesn't even have uniforms. The boys wear blazers while the girls wear sailor suits. It's there to accentuate both their Creepy Child looks and their formal, Faux Affably Evil personas. | |

Edwin Paine, one of the eponymous Dead Boy Detectives — a spinoff of The Sandman (1989) — wears his St. Hilarion's uniform when solving mysteries. Then again, he did die in it, so he might not have a choice in the matter. | |

In X1999, all the characters who are just high school students will be depicted wearing school uniform. Always. Even fighting. And they all look awesome! Except, for some reason, for Sorata. It's even commented on that he doesn't! | |

Invoked in Wandering Son. The two transgender protagonists frequently wear school uniforms (a Sailor Fuku given by Takatsuki to Nitori and a hand-me-down gakuran from his brother for Takatsuki) outside of school to pass, even though they start the series as elementary schoolers and didn't even wear uniforms yet. As the manga goes on this is subverted as they buy more female and male clothing respectively. | |

Negima! Magister Negi Magi: Setsuna is one of the few girls who doesn't change out of her school uniform when hanging outside of class. She actually finds wearing casual clothes a little embarrassing since she's the businesslike type. Kotarou, who mentioned that his school uniform is his fighting outfit. He clearly lives with few possessions. Sayo Aisaka wears her school uniform perpetually, because of the fact that she's dead. Since she died some unspecified time in the past, her uniform is different to that of the rest of the school. |

On Amphibia, Anne uses her Saint James School uniform as her standard outfit for the first two seasons. Justified since she got sent to Amphibia wearing this. She does occasionally dress up for specific occasions, such as "Anne of the Year" and "The Dinner", but it's implied that she sticks to her uniform mainly because it's already wreaked by her adventures in Amphibia. She is given an opportunity to upgrade her look towards the tail end of Season 2, but after all the experiences she's had so far, Anne is comfortable with the way she looks, minimising her changes to just an armored breastplate she wears throughout the remaining episodes when adventuring. She does grow out of this though in the season 3 intro where she has a new and more casual outfit due to being back on Earth at that point. But then she changes back into the uniform and breastplate when she returns to Amphibia. | |

The characters in School-Live! near constantly wear their uniforms. It's justified in that the zombie outbreak happened right after school ended and thus they were in their uniforms. They go clothes "shopping" later on (they check out an abandoned mall) but still don't change clothes for much other than sleeping. The girls constantly wearing uniforms is lampshaded by Kurumi, who jokes that school uniforms are the ultimate formalwear for all occasions (even funerals). | |

Sakura from Street Fighter has become quite famous for entering martial arts tournaments in her school uniform. Even in Street Fighter IV where she travels abroad to visit Ken she's still wearing one as she now uses it as her fighting uniform. Finally averted in Street Fighter V, where she has graduated from high school and no longer wears her uniform. | |

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Crazy Diamond's Demonic Heartbreak: The spin-off prequel takes place during the spring break before a new school term begins, and has Josuke and Ryoko Kakyoin wearing their respective high school uniforms despite Josuke having not officially enrolled his high school yet, while Ryoko has already just graduated from high school. Josuke wearing his uniform represents him looking forward to the next part of his life, and Ryoko wearing her uniform represents her clinging to the past. | |

Kyon was falling into this constantly for a while during Kyon: Big Damn Hero, but managed to escape it by getting a Badass Longcoat and skinsuit... thing. Haruhi actually uses this exact wording about Yuki. |

Discussed in an episode of Pepper Ann where the school tries out instituting uniforms. No one but Pepper Ann minds, as the uniforms chosen are considered very fashionable. Once the school decides against using them anyway, the kids decide that's even better because it's "cooler" to wear them outside of school, where people will know it's a fashion statement. | |
