Kimono

Post by Tyoka »

Ok, if any of you have seen any japanese based show, i'm sure you've seen the type of robe what over laps itself. I asked my friend and he said that's a kimono, which i have heard of kimono's but i thought that was a womans robe. Well i searched on google and all i can find are the ones that the female would wear(i.e. with a skirt). I need to find one for a movie my friends and i are making. Here's a pic from Rurouni kenshin, and my friend says they're both wearing kimono's. Sorry if it's alittle big...

I will wash my soul

to call the spirit of vengence

to deny my wisdom for anger

to break the scream of the silent fool

and to be knightrider of doom



The Tetsusaiga's tranformation effectively changes it from a Katana to a Falchion.

This changes its damage to 7-15 and increases its range by 10.

If you understood any of that, you have problems.

I thought Kimono's were the women's dress?? I have one in Japan :wub: but it cost a BOMB. I think the guy's would be cheaper though, but for a real kimono, you're looking at least 500 - 1000 pounds there :blink:

well, i thought it was a womans dress, but my friend said not. Either way, my OTHER friend said he would just get a Gi, which is the karate costume, and have it made abit diff or somethin.





yeah Emily, that's what i thought a Kimono was. What I'm looking for is just like a shirt that folds over in the front and the sleeves expand as they go down your arm. lemme try the link again...



clicky part 2



but yeah, even if kimono's are a womans dress, i still think they're cool. i wouldn't wear one, even i was a girl cause they look like they'd be hard to run in :wacko: or walk for that matter

lol ok but i ain't paying for your ride! hehe. Does a Gi fold over in the center though? That's all i'm looking for. That and these loose pants that my friend has and it starts with an 'H' i think. lol





the way the movie idea got started was kinda funny. if anyones here has played FFIX then they have seen the choreography(?) event, where you hafta act out a sword fighting seen, then that pretty much explains it all. We we're trying to mimic them, then we made up our own little seen(which was actually pretty good) and then we decided to make a music video, and then we ended up making a huge storyline so it would be to long for a music video, and thus we'll just make a movie =D kinda sucks though, we hafta earn up the money to by a digital camcorder. :'( anyone wanna donate?! call 555-5555-555...5....

well if you wear it low the obi doesn't look so bad i think. This isn't something i'm gonna wear 24/7(though i was considering it), i just want it incase there's every going to be an anime expo, which there probably won't be in OKLA-FREAKEN-HOMA but might as well be prepared =] it is abit thick though, i might just try to get some cloth and tie it around.
