*sniffs* ah yes rarepairs

I'm seeing all this talk about the statues going on here so i decided to translate this wonderful thread by @/sparkoll_ on twitter, here we go.

firstly, what kind of clothes they usually wear? Armor. Despite being an anime about ninjas, the similarity of Hashirama and Madara's clothes and those of ancient samurai is quite clear.

Okay, but what does this have to do with clothing? We know that in Japan, the Kimono is a typical and traditional clothing and with several different types. This means that you cannot just wear any kimono in any situation.

Madara, in his representation, is wearing a kimono called Furisode. On any website about kimonos, the explanation of a furisode is: a long-sleeved garment, worn exclusively by young and single women.

But if Madara doesn't fit that description, why is he using one? After researching a lot, i discovered that furisodes were also used by samurai men who had relationships with other men.

It was not accidental. As I said, cultural clothing in Japan is very important, and isn't portrayed recklessly. Kishimoto knew very well what he was doing when he put Madara in a Furisode, especially since this was the only time he "wore" one.

Hate me.

Hurt me.

Complicate me.
