Idiot Hair: Difference between revisions

'''Idiot Hair''' is not to be confused with the [[Hair Antennae|two-stranded antennae-style hair]], most recently popularized by ''[[Love Hina]]'' or ''[[Ah! My Goddess]]''.

 

== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==

* The top image comes from ''[[Bakemonogatari]]''. The depicted Koyomi as well as his sisters Karen and Tsukihi have ahoge, but Koyomi's is the tallest.

* Miyuki in ''[[Smile Pretty Cure]]''. When she turns into Cure Happy, she grows another!

* Inverted with Shirai-sensei of ''Kodomo no Jikan'', who's the utterly stern and strict teacher with a thin but prominent hair over her head. It's still there after her [[Important Haircut]] during her [[Defrosting Ice Queen]] phase.

 

== [[Comic Books]] ==

* Franco-Belgian comics character Titeuf. ''All'' his hair is Idiot Hair, which is [[Ping-Pong Naivete|sometimes representative of him, sometimes not]].

* Fantasio from ''[[Spirou and Fantasio]]'' has eight stray hairs which pop up on top of his head.

 

== [[Film]] ==

* Kyoami in ''[[Ran]]''; being [[The Jester|court jester]] to Lord Ichimonji, this makes sense. Subverted in that (like most jesters), he's actually very intelligent, using his humorous facade to speak (horrible) truth to power.

* Alfalfa from the [[Our Gang]] shorts.

 

== [[Literature]] ==

* Nyarko from [[Light Novels]] ''[[Nyarko San|Haiyore! Nyarko-san]]''. Being [[Cthulhu Mythos|Nyarlathotep]] doesn't help from being dumb, the ahoge also act as replacement for tentacles.

 

* Recurring ''[[Saturday Night Live]]'' character, Ed Grimley.

* This is the equivalent of a bad hair day for Saki in [[Engine Sentai Go-onger]]. To be fair, her personal policy is summed up with two words: [[Gratuitous English|"Smile Smile!"]]

* Schemer's curl in ''[[Shining Time Station]]'' could count. His [[Nephewism|nephew]] Schemie has one to match.

* Whenever Ryotaro gets possessed by Momotaros in ''[[Kamen Rider Den-O]]'', a strand of red hair would appear, and it sometimes literally stands out from the rest.

 

== [[Video Games]] ==

* The (canon) female Reyva from ''[[Soul Nomad and The World Eaters]]'' has a large one, although she's not particularly stupid.

 

* Saber in ''[[Fate/stay night|Fate Stay Night]]''. A non-indicative one for the most part, but for God's sake don't pull on it. {{spoiler|She'll turn into [[Super-Powered Evil Side|Saber Alter]]}}.

** ''[[Fate Nuovo Guerra]]'' seems to have made this a family trait of sorts. Her '[[Cloning Blues|son]]' has it, and so does her father (both are summoned as Saber-class Servants too). The latter's profile even lampshades it.

* Orpha and Aselia in ''[[Eien no Aselia]].'' The first is a genki girl loli driven entirely by id and the latter is an [[Emotionless Girl]] [[Cloudcuckoolander]] with a questionable grasp of reason when her character gets flashed out.

* ''[[Maji de Watashi ni Koi Shinasai!|Maji De Watashi Ni Koi Shinasai]]'' has at least three: [[Dumb Muscle|Momoyo]], [[Cloudcuckoolander|Koyuki]], and [[Sleepyhead|Tatsuko]].

 

== [[Web Animation]] ==

* Penny from ''[[RWBY]]''.

 

== [[Web Comics]] ==
