Hotblooded Sideburns: Difference between revisions

Due to its inherent association with [[Super Robot]] shows of the 70s and 80s, this is also a form of [[Seventies Hair|Seventies]] or [[Eighties Hair]], and its appearance on female characters to show how badass they were has nearly died out.

 

== Anime and Manga ==

* Everyone created by [[Go Nagai]]. ''Everyone''. Yes, even ''[[Cutey Honey]]''.

* Impulsive, tomboyish Utena from ''[[Revolutionary Girl Utena]]'' has them; see [http://www.animeresimleri.com/img1213.htm this image], for example.

* [[Kunio Okawara]] in [[Gundam Sousei]] has a mean pair. He's not, however, [[The Stoic|even closely comparable]] to [[Yoshiyuki Tomino]] in his hot-bloodedness, and Tomino is [[Bald of Awesome|entirely bald]].

 

== Comic Books ==

** Ludwig Von Drake, [[Donald Duck]]'s other uncle, has a pair of nice ones too. Donald himself sports a pair in the short ''Crazy Over Daisy''.

* Teen Titans member Jericho sported really long sideburns.

 

== Fan Works ==

* Ayameko/Cure Jasmine from ''[[Pretty Cure Perfume Preppy]]''.

* In the ''[[Christian Humber Reloaded]]'' webcomic, Vash's human form has these.

 

== Film ==

* Gutsy Smurf in ''[[The Smurfs (film)|The Smurfs]]'' has some pretty long sideburns for a Smurf [[Vague Age|his age]].

* Eddie from ''[[The Rocky Horror Picture Show]]''.

 

== Literature ==

** And quite fitting, him being largely an [[Expy]] of Harry [[Flashman]], a fictional ''Victorian'' officer, given that Victorian times were the peak of the 'burns popularity. On the other hand, Cain isn't in the least bit hotblooded (at least [[Slave to PR|officially]]), being in fact a calm, calculating [[Guile Hero]].

 

* The Tenth Doctor from ''[[Doctor Who]]''.

* Neelix and pretty much any male adult Talaxian in ''[[Star Trek: Voyager]]''.

 

== Video Games ==

** Another example is Rococo, whose locks curve around behind and under his ears, then end in a spike that somehow points ''up'' towards his eyes.

 

* [[Only Known by Their Nickname|Bro]] in ''[[Homestuck]]'' sports these, along with [[Cool Shades]], [[Katanas Are Just Better|a katana]], and one of the most [[Crazy Awesome]] STRIFE techniques [[Teleport Spam|ever]] [[Marionette Master|unleashed.]]

** Bro's {{spoiler|Alpha iteration Dirk Strider}} also sports these but [[Subverted Trope|subverts]] the [[Hot-Blooded]] part.

* Johnny Yamamoto of [[Titanzer]] sports the customary 'burns, along with a [[Eighties Hair|hero mullet]].

* Jason from ''[[Remus]]'' has these, although he seems to be lacking a bit in the [[Hot-Blooded]] department.

 

== Web Original ==

* Tim/{{spoiler|Masky}} of ''[[Marble Hornets]]'' sports killer sideburns.

* Whenever Doug decides to grow his hair out some more, [[The Nostalgia Critic]] has a good set of these.

 

== Western Animation ==

* Lion-O of ''[[Thundercats]]'' is occassionally drawn like this. Or at least it appears so, since you never see his ears.

* Control Freak of ''[[Teen Titans (animation)|Teen Titans]]'' has a pair of long sideburns.

 

== Real Life ==

* German landscape painter [[wikipedia:Caspar David Friedrich|Caspar David Friederich]] sported a ''ginormous'' pair of sideburns.

* French stateman [[wikipedia:Jules Ferry|Jules Ferry]]

* Sideburns were actually named after Union General [[wikipedia:Ambrose Burnside|Ambrose Burnside]], who is remembered for two things: his absurd sideburns, and the wholesale slaughter of his own men in the one battle he commanded.

* Jacques Offenbach, best known for writing the "Infernal Gallop" AKA Can Can music, had a nice pair of muttonchops (and a moustache) after going through a copule of really creepy looking phases. [[wikipedia:Jacques Offenbach|The page]] also features some other men with nice 'burns.
