Inverted in Chapter 75 when Gojo stays the night at her home. Thanks to her misunderstanding his words about "planning not to sleep tonight", she decides to put on a set of white undies, thinking that Gojo will like them. Much to her disappointment, nothing happens in the end. So, let’s take a look at all of her cosplays in My Dress Up Darling. Marin’s Cosplay #1: Shizuku Kuroe Mentor Archetype: After becoming acquainted with Akira online, she becomes something of a cosplay mentor to him when it comes to prop making and costume design. She acts as a sounding board, gives him advice, and even assists him in the crafting of smaller items so he can focus on the biggest parts of his Haniel cosplay.
Female Gaze: Once she catches feelings for Gojo, Kitagawa frequently starts staring at him, her face red as a tomato, whenever he's looking especially handsome while doing mundane things, talking to his family, or working on their projects. It's nowhere near as sexualized as the Male Gaze she provides but it is much more sensual and intimate, symbolizing both her emotional attachment to him and her very strong crush on him. Marin is wearing a gray wig with bangs which was styled by Wakana. For her outfit, she is wearing a ready-made movie version of Sakuya's school uniform. The uniform is a dark-colored gakuran. The top has a standing collar buttoning down from top-to-bottom. Be Yourself: True to her welcoming and non-judgy nature, Marin is a firm believer that everyone should be free to enjoy whatever they want, and nobody should judge them for it, no matter who they are. It's this ethos that allows Gojo, someone's who never been able to share his passion with others, to open up to her.
Akira Ogata
Single Woman Seeks Good Man: Much like Kitagawa, Gojo's kindness and earnestness, not only towards her but towards her little sister as well, seems to have caused her to start falling for him. One day, Marin falls and hits her head on Wakana Gojo's table and apologizes, marking the first yet brief conversation between the two. The next day, Wakana and Marin are both assigned to afterschool cleaning, though things still remain awkward between the two. One day, Wakana was planning to use the school's sewing machine to work on a doll but coincidentally, Marin comes in and spots him. After admiring Wakana's doll and praising his work, Marin asks if Wakana could help her create cosplays, which Wakana accepts. Thus, a friendship blossoms between the two and the series begins. Shared Family Quirks: While lamenting over his daughter's Ridiculous Procrastinator tendencies, it takes only a second of self-reflection to realize she gets it from him, who shared her procrastination tendencies when he was younger. Dark and Troubled Past: She apparently had issues with her parents, who didn't approve of her hobbies, even throwing out her mangas when she entered middle school. It eventually her to move out to live on her own, and couldn't retake them until she entered college.
Gender-Blender Name: A part of the reason that Gojou thought she was a man before meeting her, as "Akira" is more often used as a masculine name. Red Oni, Blue Oni: The Red to Gojo's Blue. She's practically Hot-Blooded next to his calm awkward introverted nature. Gentle Giant: He's this for a first-year highschooler, standing 185cm (close to 6'1"), but is extremely polite, meek and shy. Before we get into all of her cosplays, you should first learn about Marin Kitagawa, the main character of My Dress Up Darling. Of course, I will not be spoiling anything important in this section, so you don’t have to worry about that. Karakter yang dimaksud adalah Rei-sama, karakter yang berasal dari Hostesst Osis. Karakter tersebut cukup populer, dan banyak dari teman-teman sekelas Marin Kitagawa ternyata juga mengetahuinya.Seiring berjalannya cerita, Marin Kitagawa akhirnya memenangkan kontes kecantikan dalam festival budaya tersebut berkat mengcosplay karakter Rei-sama, bahkan juri perempuannya diperlihatkan cenat-cenut melihat karakter Rei-sama yang begitu tampan dan menggoda baginya. Cosplay kali ini sukses besar. Sekelas heboh dan bersorak gembira menyambut kemenangan. Gojo pun selaku pembuat pakaian cosplay sekaligus periasnya juga merasa cukup senang. Entertainingly Wrong: He thinks Gojo is into crossdressing at first and decides to be as helpful and supportive as he can as to not give (what he assumes would be) Gojo a bad first impression of shopping supplies for said (nonexistent) hobby. Once Gojo brings Kitagawa along the second time he visits the store, said misunderstanding is cleared up easily since they have already gotten chummy. Terrible Artist: For all her enthusiasm, Marin struggles to make cosplay costumes herself even with dedicated instructions from a guide written for beginners. This is why she seeks out Gojo when she learns about his ability to sew. It is truly a fact to say that this cosplay looks completely different from her previous ones and perfectly suits her. This cosplay has it all, from the amazing outfits to the simple makeup; everything was top notch and done by professionals. Conclusion:
During the first cosplay event, she allows a female photographer to take a few last photos of her before leaving. Then a gust of wind flips her skirt, and the photographer says she's gonna delete the last photos. Kitagawa agrees she should, because she didn't look at the camera. Marin stated that she is super cute. In the beginning, Shizuku-tan doesn’t smile and is like an ice queen. But after you get more in-game events, she makes other expressions and this is what made Marin fall in love with her.
Tragic Dream: As a child, she wanted to become a Magical Girl, until she realized it was impossible. She got into cosplay since for her, cosplaying as magical girl characters is the closest thing she can do to become one. Formal Characters Use Keigo: He always uses very formal speech patterns, which emphasizes his polite, humble personality as well as how he lives an old-fashioned lifestyle with his grandfather.
Through His Stomach: Kitagawa attempts to make an Omurice adorned with a loving message when Gojo first visits her at her house. Unfortunately, she makes a mess of it and it ends up looking more like super-eggy Fried Rice with "Sorry" written on it. On the inverse, Gojo's cooking skills are yet another thing that endears him to her, and she not only has Dinner regularly at his house, but he always sends her home with a breakfast for the next day. Unfortunately, her Big Eater nature mixing with her love of his cooking means she inevitably ends up eating everything as soon as she's home, leading to the below-mentioned Weight Woe. Raised by Grandparents: He lives with his grandpa, as his parents have passed away prior to the start of the series (their portraits are seen on the family altar in the first episode's opening scene). Despite trying to appear mature and calm (keyword being "trying"), when she sees her sister cosplaying for the first time, she's so impressed that she starts fangirling and gushing over it, just like Kitagawa herself. Cute Clumsy Girl: Has shades of this, first by being shown quite unskilled at seweing cosplays despite the very detailed instructions, and later by somehow falling wholesale in a pool after having tried to dip a single foot.Determinator: Once he finally decides to get the Shizuku-tan costume done, he works nonstop to finish it on time for the cosplay event, all for the sake of seeing Kitagawa smile. Supreme Chef: He's a very good cook, albeit mostly with traditional Japanese dishes note Specifically, the Gojo family seems to exclusively eat Washoku, meaning they don't cook with any meat besides fish (as because of the buddhist influence killing red meat animals was forbidden or at least restricted for much of Japanese history) and do so near-exclusively with in-season ingredients. It should be noted Gojo doesn't have any problems eating meat, he just doesn't consider preparing it himself due to Washoku being what he's used to.. Head-Turning Beauty: She's a model on the side and absolutely looks it, with or without makeup and in a lot of different styles. One clothing store employee and several people in Shibuya on Halloween outright refer to Kitagawa as "Insanely hot". Establishing Character Moment: Kitagawa has two moments in the first chapter/episode that best describe her beyond her appearance. The first is calling out Gojo for letting their classmates take advantage of him, showing that she is more perceptive than her outward personality would suggest. The second is her appreciating Gojo's Hina doll without any hint of judgement, which was the complete reversal of the childhood friend that called him creepy. Not as evident as with Gojo, but she does have her moments. For starters, she gets red up to the ears, after being completely unfazed about Gojo having to measure her bust and so on, when Gojo accidentally just barely taps her private parts through her bikini bottom without noticing during the inseam measurement, and Kitagawa plays with her hair longingly when he immediately dodged the situation by mistaking her bright blush for the room being too hot and going over to turn the A/C on.
