Bring My Red Jacket: Difference between revisions

{{examples}}

 

* Played with in ''[[Cheeky Angel]]'', where the school bad boy wears a ''black shirt'', against code, because he gets in a ton of fights and blood won't show on black.

* In Japan, red is the traditional color of the hero. Many of these heroes fit the red formula in the [[Red Oni, Blue Oni]] duo, as well as highlighting their usual [[Hot-Blooded|fiery spirit]].

* The school uniform in ''[[Kanon]]'' is red. Mai, the [[Emotionless Girl]] that swordfights with demons, sustains life-threatening injuries in her uniform, with accompanying red stains. However, in the ball scene, where nobody is wearing red, people are fiercely attacked and, in some cases, badly hurt, but nobody bleeds. In the [[Look Both Ways|SUV]] scene, the victim isn't even shown, and replaced in the remake with the red stain of a strawberry dropped on the ground.

* Vita of ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha]]'' has red hair, a red hat, and a very red dress. Guess who spent most of the third season's last mission bleeding all over the place and had a tendency to get wounded even before that?

* Chrono from ''[[Chrono Crusade]]'' wears a red coat and red shorts, and true to the trope, he's constantly getting injured, ''particularly'' in the manga. In the manga, he loses one of his arms at least three times. (Of course, as a demon, he has the power to heal his wounds...which is part of the reason why he feels like he ''can'' put himself in so much danger.)

* Kusanagi Mamoru from ''[[Blue Seed]]''. His [[Limited Wardrobe|trademark outfit]] is a red coat, and ''boy'' does he tend to get injured {{spoiler|and even (apparently) die on occasion}}—though [[Healing Factor|it's usually not a big deal]]. [[Subverted Trope|One little problem]] with the red coat is that it only makes his injuries more visible, because his blood is ''[[Alien Blood|green]]''...

* ''[[Umineko no Naku Koro ni]]'' - Battler Ushiromiya manages to suffer from a double dose of this trope - red shirt, [[White Shirt of Death|white jacket]]. He's also the only one who never simply dies, oh no, [[Fate Worse Than Death|he dies and then is resurrected to be killed over and over again.]]

* Asuka in ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'' wears a red plugsuit and has red hair. She is the one that gets the most severe injuries out of all of the pilots. Asuka gets to feel the pain of {{spoiler|being impaled through the eye, eaten alive, arm cut in half, and finally impaled through her arm, head (again), and torso with 9 spears}}, all at 300% strength (her sync rate of 300 made her feel everything three times stronger than reality.)

* ''[[One Piece]]''

** Shanks depending on who does the coloring, has either a red or black cape. Subverted as he threw it off to swim out to save Luffy, and ''then'' lost his arm.

* In ''[[Black Butler]]'', Madam Red not only wears a red cloak, but the colour red makes up her a major part of her backstory.

** So does {{spoiler|Grell while in shinigami form}} and it is a major part of her character as well. {{spoiler|After Madam Red's death, he even takes the cloak from her, saying "You're not fit to wear the color red."}}
