Line 32:
* Mello from ''[[Death Note]]'' {{spoiler|has been a Mafia terrorist since he was 14, armed with guns in leather pants. Not to mention taking extreme measures to get what he wants, including kidnapping a teen girl and causing her to go through a traumatic experience that leaves her catatonic}}.
* A flashback story revealed that Hiruma from ''[[Eyeshield 21]]'' has hair that is naturally black, but he dyes it specifically as part of his strategy to make himself look more intimidating. It works. Oh, and he's evil.
* Although he's [[Comedic Sociopath|amusingly psychotic]] to the point where it's hard not to like him to an extent, [[Psycho for Hire|Ladd Russo]] from ''[[Baccano!]]'' would most definitely fall under this trope, if not for undecidedly brown tan AND dark blond hair {{spoiler|which turns gray for artisticness in Alcatra}}. I mean, come on. {{spoiler|He shoots a small child's head off and constantly threatens to kill his girlfriend, among other things.}}
* Played with in ''[[The Prince of Tennis]]''. Kevin Smith is an angry, bitchy, aggressive American boy who is an absolute [[Jerkass]] for quite a while...{{spoiler|and comes from a broken family with a negligent father, also blond. When he's defeated and comes to terms with himself, he shows a sweeter side, though not losing his [[Hot-Blooded|strong temper]] completely.}}
* [[Naruto]] himself averts this, as he's the hero, but [[Mad Artist|Deidara]] of the Atatsuki does not. However, Naruto is the host of the Nine Tailed demon fox which is one of the most evil and ill tempered of all of the tailed beasts. His father, 4th Hokage Minato Namikaze, also a blonde male, sealed this beast inside of his newborn son, Naruto. Although this action was necessary and will benefit his home village in the long term, taking an "ends justify the means" approach does not exactly dispel the stereotype.
Line 46:
* In the "Fujiyama Gangster Paradise" story arc in ''[[Black Lagoon]]'', one of the main antagonists is a Yakuza scumbag named Chaka, who sports a mane of blond hair (supposedly dyed, as he ''is'' Japanese) [[Dark-Skinned Blond|and very tanned skin]]. He is without doubt the [[Complete Monster|most disgusting, irredeemable fuck]] shown so far in the series, so much that [[Even Evil Has Standards|not even his fellow Yakuza like him]] {{spoiler|and [[Badass]] [[Anti-Villain]] Ginji is just ''too'' happy to deal him a Cool And Unusual Death for abusing the local [[Yakuza Princess]], Yukio.}}.
* ''[[Uchuu Senkan Yamato|Star Blazers:]]'' Everybody chant! DESS-lok Desslok Desslok! DESS-lok Desslok Desslok! DESS-lok Desslok Desslok!
* ''[[Darker Thanthan Black]]'' very much fits both this trope and [[Blondes Are Evil]], given the huge amount of blond Contractors, who, while varying in terms of morality/likability, are all superpowered sociopaths. The high proportion of blonds might be because Contractors are generally foreign agents, and the favored way to depict a foreigner in Japan is through [[Phenotype Stereotype]] <ref>which incidentally uses a ''[[Darker Thanthan Black]]'' character as the page image</ref>.
* ''[[Yotsuba&!]]'': Yanda is, at minimum, a big jerk.
* Vincent from ''[[Pandora Hearts]]'', and with [[Heterochromia]], to boot. {{spoiler|And probably Jack. Maybe.}}
