The official website of the anime adaptation of Norimitsu Kaihou and Sadoru Chiba’s Gakkou Gurashi! manga has revealed an updated visual at the end of the first episode to reflect what is really happening in the world of the series.
Previous visual:
Earlier last week a fan wondered why the main character, Yuki Takeya, has different a school uniform than the rest of the main cast. The Japanese Twitter user believes that they have found an explanation that gives the visual choices a deeper, psychological meaning.
He also stated that if you place the girls side by side and reverse the color palettes, the colors of their uniforms match perfectly.
This suggests that Yuki’s mismatched uniform is actually reflective of her ‘inverted’ psychological state.
