@EroSɘnnin It seems you didn't play that Macromedia Flash eroge in early 2000 called Ganguro Girl.

<p>At 6:50 of episode 25 of <em>Great Teacher Onizuka</em>, we see three girls bitching about the new school nurse Nao Kadena:</p>

<p>I have not seen even a glimpse of these three girls, until episode 25. The part which intrigues me is their appearance. I've not noticed anyone with such a unique appearance in the series.</p>
<p>Has there been any characteristic explanation regarding it? Is it make up, or something else?</p>

Who are these three girls supposed to be in episode 25 of Great Teacher Onizuka?

I have not seen even a glimpse of these three girls, until episode 25. The part which intrigues me is their appearance. I've not noticed anyone with such a unique appearance in the series.

Has there been any characteristic explanation regarding it? Is it make up, or something else?
