A small issue with that is that a number of gyaru-fication posts are going to wind up as collateral. Particularly the ones that deal with ganguro, and they existed years before the current trend of blackwashing became a thing. I'm not a big fan of that either, but I just wanted to bring that up since those weren't created to open a front in the culture war.

Given how its very specific artists that do this and have a large volume of work, its better to just blacklist them and be done with it.

Adding dark-skinned_female alternate_hairstyle alternate_skin_color in blacklist will leave gyaru and ganguro mostly unaffected with only 6 images getting caught in the gyaru tag with that blacklist combo and only 2 in the ganguro tag.
