Line 23:
Look out for the large number of [[Dark-Skinned Redhead|Dark Skinned Redheads]] in Anime.
 
Perhaps surprisingly to outsiders, given the (''relatively'') higher proportion of [[Useful Notes/Ireland|Irish]] redheads, this trope does not seem to exist in Ireland. Redheaded female leads do appear, of course, but they are heavily outnumbered by the more common blondes and brunettes. This may be that, unlike almost everywhere else, red hair is not really seen as especially "exotic" in Ireland and Irish made media reflects this.
 
There isn't always a reason for this; if there is, sometimes, the [http://girlswithredhair.blogspot.com/ red hair] is symbolic of love and romantic desire, or the author just finds girls that look like that appealing.
Line 114:
** Jason Todd is also a redhead.
* Cheryl Blossom, who steals [[Archie Comics|Archie]]'s heart from [[Betty and Veronica]].
* [[Aquaman (Comic Book)|Aquaman]]'s on-again, off-again wife, Mera. (Note that white-haired Dolphin didn't last too long as his beau and was eventually paired off with Tempest, formerly Aqualad.)
* [[E-Man (Comic Book)|E-Man]] has Nova Kane. (Eventually, she gained energy powers like his own.)

* Another male example, Green Arrow's sidekick, Roy Harper (formerly known as "Speedy" and "Red Arrow", known now for the second time as "Arsenal"), has always been a ladies' man.
