When Eimu joins the class, she has a different uniform from everyone else,
which I figured was acceptable because she was coming from a different school.

However, she stays in the school for quite a bit of time (and we see that she
even owns the uniform in episode 5 or so). Why then does she continue to wear
the blue uniform the entire way through the show?

Why does Eimu wear a different uniform?


Much like [this question](https://anime.stackexchange.com/questions/12935/why-
marika-didnt-wear-same-uniform-with-others), this is most likely to be part of
the _Transfer Student Uniform_ trope that features in a few anime.
