Also known as: 学生鞄, スクールバッグ, 制服リュック
A catchall tag for school Bags used by Japanese students. There are two major styles: the traditional style, which looks like a Briefcase, and the modern style, which looks like a small blue Shoulder Bag.
The traditional style, used by middle and high school students, looks like a Briefcase with a rigid flat front and back, and a single large flap that goes over the top with a handle on the top. It may also have a shoulder strap, but this is rarely depicted. Additionally, this style of bag can also have a strap fastened on the back and can be worn like a Backpack.
The modern style looks like a small blue sports bag or Duffel Bag, with a zipper on the top and a strap on each side. The straps are typically big enough to be worn over the shoulder like a Shoulder Bag, or sometimes on the back like a Backpack.
Randoseru (Backpacks used by elementary school students) should not be tagged School Bag.
