Line 20:
* Saotome Nodoka in '' [[Ranma ½]]'' almost always wears a kimono, and is a walking parody of the [[Yamato Nadeshiko]] archetype.
** Kyouko from ''[[Maison Ikkoku]]'': [http://digilander.libero.it/bertimaurizio/MI/anime/MI96-02.jpg wedding kimono]. Akane from ''[[Ranma ½]]'': [http://members.fortunecity.es/lamia/imagenes/ranma-akane.jpg western wedding dress]{{Dead link}}. Three guesses which one is the [[Cute Bruiser]] and which one is the [[Yamato Nadeshiko]].
** However, Akane is forced into [http://www.anymanga.com/ranma/037/001/008/ a wedding kimono] earlier on in the arc. It's not until later that she willingly dons a western wedding dress.
* [[Yamato Nadeshiko|Ichiki]] from ''[[Nabari no Ou]]'' is always seen wearing a traditional kimono.
* Japan of ''[[Axis Powers Hetalia]]'', [[Moe Anthropomorphism|quite]] [[Yamato Nadeshiko|fittingly]], is often seen wearing a yukata and once cleans his house [[Wholesome Crossdresser|while wearing traditionally female kimono and apron wear]]. Needless to say, fans love to break out the [[Kimono Fanservice]] for him in fanworks.
Line 30:
* The kimono is standard garb for Nozomu Itoshiki, the despairing teacher in [[Sayonara, Zetsubou-sensei]]. Also for his stalker, Matoi Tsunetsuki, since she always dresses like her current love.
* [[Reincarnation|Katakura Kojuurou]] in ''[[Gate 7]]'' is always showed wearing a kimono and hakama ''and'' [[Up to Eleven|uchikake.]]
* ''[[Ai Yori Aoshi]]'': Having been brought up in "Kyoto style" by a wealthy family, it's unusual for Aoi to not wear kimono. She also conforms to a very traditional view of her role in life... which sets off the entire plot when her pre-arranged marriage is called off.
