Animé and clothes

There's something that's been bothering me for a while now. Well, at least the last half hour, and no, it's not my dog.

I've been watching a lot of animé lately and there's something I noticed that is, well, curious. All these people going on wild crazy adventures rarely seem to change clothes. Really?

I get it, school uniforms you probably have lots of those but... Now that I think about it all my favorite characters from every type of genre, all seem to either have lots of the same type of clothes or wear the same ones continuously.

In Bleach, at least the Quincy character Uryū Ishida actively shows he has multiple change of clothes. They kinda make a joke out of it. Fairy Tail is the only other show where characters have a change of clothes. Though there are plenty of adventures where they don't, as well.

Even Trigun and FullMetal Alchemist seem to have an endless supply of similar clothes. 

This isn't a really big deal, trust me. I love the shows and will continue to watch them regardless of their clothes habits. It just gets me wondering what it'd be like to only have one or two change of clothes or all my clothes looking the same.

I live in a culture of too many choices and fashion is as much a part of the person as their personality. Still, it makes it easier for cosplay. I mean, if the character only has one outfit, it's pretty easy for someone to identify.
