I'm compiling a list of anime characters that probably smell bad. I read that kurumi from ricorico never showers but I'm only on episode 4, so can someone who watched the whole thing tell me if this is true?

I don't remember this detail but I imagine she doesn't smell that good since she's always in a closeted space never moving on her laptop

this is really weird question to ask since she's a little girl. a sane girl even if she's always in a closet, will never be so foolish as to skip bathing.

i cant recall any scene that can prove or disprove your assumption. id say she doesnt smell bad since, "innocent until proven guilty."

after a little further research, she was taking a bath in that episode 4 that you stated that you are currently on. so i'd say its safe to assume she does not smell bad.

I asked chatgpt to imagine alternative versions of this forum exchange...
AnimeSherlock13: Hold on a second, Weeaboo5008, I think there might be a clue here. Remember that mysterious scene in episode 2 when Kurumi was rummaging through her closet? What if that's where she hides her secret stash of magical deodorant?

HygieneSleuth: Interesting theory, AnimeSherlock13! But let's not forget the scene in episode 5 where Kurumi is chatting online with another character. Did anyone notice if she mentioned anything about her daily routine or hygiene habits?

PlotTwistInvestigator: And don't overlook the subtle hints in the background. In episode 3, there's a brief shot of a scented candle on Kurumi's desk. Maybe she's trying to mask a sinister odor?

Weeaboo5008: Wow, you guys are really onto something! I totally missed those details. Maybe Kurumi's hygiene (or lack thereof) is a well-crafted plot point! Could it be a clue to her mysterious past?

AnimeSherlock13: Exactly, Weeaboo5008! Remember the principle of Chekhov's gun. If there's a detail about a character introduced, it must have significance later on. Kurumi's hygiene could be a hidden plot twist waiting to be unveiled.

CleverConspirator: Maybe Kurumi's avoidance of showers is a metaphor for her emotional baggage. She's not just neglecting her hygiene; she's avoiding facing her inner demons. It's all symbolic!

ObsessiveObserver: Hold on, folks. In episode 6, there's a split-second shot of Kurumi with a peculiar stain on her sleeve. Could it be evidence of a messy snack, or is she hiding something more nefarious?

DetailDetective: This is getting intense! We've got to keep our eyes peeled for more clues in future episodes. And, Weeaboo5008, don't underestimate the power of these seemingly insignificant details.

AnimeSherlock13: Agreed! Let's stay vigilant and continue our investigation. Kurumi's hygiene might just be the key to unraveling the entire plot of Lycoris Recoil! 🕵️‍♂️🔍


Then I asked it to place the "Yall I think this guy’s a loli" reply in there...
CuriousCatnip: And what about the symbolism in the opening credits? I noticed a recurring motif of soap bubbles. Is this a clue to Kurumi's hygiene struggles or just an aesthetic choice?

AnimeSherlock13: Excellent observation, CuriousCatnip! We might be onto something here. Let's create a timeline of events and symbols to see if there's a hidden pattern.

DetailDetective: Wait a minute, did anyone notice the subtle changes in Kurumi's character design throughout the series? Maybe her appearance reflects her evolving hygiene habits or emotional state.

AnimeConspirator: That's an intriguing thought! We should compare screenshots from different episodes and look for visual cues that might hint at character development.

CARZOOt: Yall I think this guy’s a loli.

AnimeSherlock13: Uh, CARZOOt, we're knee-deep in a serious investigation here. What does that have to do with anything?

CARZOOt: No, seriously. We've been discussing the anime for days, and this AnimeSherlock13 guy? Definitely a loli.

AnimeFan101: Hey, I’m also a fan of Lycoris Recoil. I think Kurumi is a great character, despite her smell. She’s very smart and loyal, and she has a cute voice. I don’t think she deserves to be on your list, weeaboo5008. She’s not the only one who smells bad in anime, you know. What about Naruto, who eats ramen all the time? Or Luffy, who never changes his clothes? Or Shinji, who… well, you know what he did in episode 25.

weeaboo5008: AnimeFan101, I respect your opinion, but I disagree. Kurumi is on my list because she’s one of the most extreme examples of bad hygiene in anime. Naruto, Luffy, and Shinji may not smell like roses, but they at least have some physical activity and interaction with other people. Kurumi is literally a hermit who lives in her own filth. I don’t care how cute or smart she is, she needs to take a shower ASAP.

Majority of characters, not only in this anime, has never took a bath, ever. Does all of them smells bad?
