The blog post for today will be about the triangular cloth headbands that sometimes appear in Anime and manga. The best example of this headband appearing in an Anime or manga is Blood Lad, where Fuyumi wears one ever since the beginning of the series. So, what is that thing? There are many different names for it, but there isn't one specific name that is usually used for it. It also used to be one of the traditional Japanese burial garments as well. But, no one is quite sure why it was used. In Anime and manga, this headband is usually worn by ghosts or any characters associated with death. This is why it sometimes appears in Anime and manga as either part of a costume, or as a symbol of the character being a ghost or other creature associated with death. This is the reason why Fuyumi wears one in Blood Lad, since she is a ghost. Other than this, I couldn't find very much more information on this cloth headband. But as a bonus, I will be including a picture of Fuyumi from Blood Lad below. Enjoy!
