You know, I haven't really been a big fan of Mukuro.
I mean yeah, he's got cool black hair, he's got red eyes (well, A red eye), super cool powers, slight psychosis, that stereotypical badass personality, a scythe and a pretty spiffy costume that consists of... camouflage print... His "Ten Years Later" version even has LONG black hair. That's pretty much screaming "OMG I AM SO YOUR TYPE OKAY? FANGIRL ME! WORSHIP ME! SLASH ME--" Um, yes.

But I resist, because too many fangirls like him I only like pairings.

But he's always been a cool character.
Like the "ahahaha(um, I meant 'kufufufu')-savin'-the-day" kind of cool.

Until today, when I realised his spiffy costume of camouflage did not just consist of camouflage print (and a white T-shirt, and some darkish khakish? coloured trousers... I so did not notice. It's casual observations! ...who am I kidding...)

ROKUDO MUKURO,
coolest character of all of Katekyo Hitman Reborn,
has been making fashion statements since the beginning of the series.

YES, THOSE ARE THIGH-HIGH BOOTS.
Dear gods in the heavens above. Mukuro, the malest (sic) manliest, most sought-after character by fangirls and most slashed and abused by slash writers, wears THIGH-HIGH BOOTS. Judging by how shiny they seem to be, (white highlights?!) I suspect those cheap PVC glossy kind. Which is like, twice as slutty scary.

Therefore all you cosplayers and fanartists out there, please remember: when cosplaying/drawing Mukuro in his original costume, if he ain't got thigh-highs, UR DOIN IT WRONG.

Though seriously, if that doesn't scream "I'M SOMEBODY'S BITCH" I don't know what does.
