 Scene kids - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Scene kids are usually the trendsetters within their scene, and as such are the first to appropriate new styles and fashions, as well as being the first to abandon outdated or over-exposed ones.
Scene kids rarely refer to themselves by this term—it is most commonly used by outsiders, and serves as either a pejorative or a compliment depending on the context in which it is used.
They often strive to be the first within their scene to adopt a new trend, and their attempts at "keeping up with the Joneses" in order to appear cool to their select group of scene kid peers are derided by outsiders.

 Katzenjammer Kids - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Katzenjammer Kids is probably the world's second oldest comic strip (after The Yellow Kid, which ran from 1895-98) and the oldest one still in syndication.
The Katzenjammer Kids (three brothers in the first strip, but soon reduced to two) featured Hans and Fritz, twins who rebelled against authority, particularly in the form of their mother, Mama; der Captain, a shipwrecked sailor who acted as a surrogate father; and der Inspector, an official from the school system.
Dirks sued, and after a long legal battle the Hearst papers were allowed to continue The Katzenjammer Kids and Dirks was allowed to syndicate an almost identical strip, called The Captain and the Kids after 1918, for the rival Pulitzer newspapers.

Though there are some nice touches in Kids Return, as well as strong supporting characters (two classmates want to be comedians; one classmate has a crush on a waitress at a coffee shop), the story is a little too familiar to be effective.
