Tomboyish Ponytail: Difference between revisions

* Vietnam of ''[[Axis Powers Hetalia]]''.

* Misaki of ''[[Excel Saga (manga)|Excel Saga]]''.

* Presea from ''[[Magic Knight Rayearth]]''. Also, tomboys Tarta and Hikaru have their hair in a braid. Contrast to the girlier girls Emeraude, Alcyone, Tatra, and Umi, who wear their hair down. Caldina, Fuu, and Aska are harder to classify, since they have both tomboy and girly girl traits, but all wear different hairstyles.

* Asaka (AKA [[Action Girl|Neuroloid Girl]]) in ''[[Dokkoida?!]]''

* ''[[Bleach]]'': [[Action Girl]] Yoruichi. She used to have short hair, but a hundred years spent mostly as a cat allowed her hair to grow out. Now she spends most of the time with it tied back in a ponytail while she [[Badass|kicks butt]] with the best of the men. Since her extremely high aristocratic rank wasn't quite high enough to be a [[Rebellious Princess]], she also doubles as a [[Spirited Young Lady]], too.

 

== Comic Books ==

* ''[[Young Justice (comics)|Young Justice]]'': Quite obvious in the [[Tomboy and Girly Girl]] pair of sweet and demure [[The Chick|Miss Martian]], who wears her hair [[Long Hair Is Feminine|loose around her shoulders]] and brash [[Tsundere]] [[Action Girl|Artemis]] who wears hers in a tight ponytail at all times.

* Betty Cooper from ''[[Archie Comics]]'', as the [[Tomboy and Girly Girl|Tomboy to Veronica's Girly Girl]].

 

== Fan Works ==

* ''[[Rise of the Galeforces]]'': [http://fav.me/d3jcwwq Sarah Squall, aka Stratogale, has one.]

 

* Laney of ''[[She's All That]]'', to show how she's too weird to be pretty.

** Which got mercilessly mocked in ''[[Not Another Teen Movie]]''.

* Cady in ''[[Mean Girls]]'' before she joined the plastics.

** The plastics actually tell her that they have a rule about only wearing hair in a ponytail once a week.

 

== Literature ==

** Also her [[Evil Twin]] [[Thursday Next]]-1, a [[Dark Action Girl]] who has a much more severe ponytail, held in place by a leather strap rather than a scrunchie. ([[Thursday Next]]-2 is a subversion, at least to start with; she's an [[Actual Pacifist]] [[Granola Girl]] whose scrunchie is made of hemp.)

* Kate Whetherall from ''[[The Mysterious Benedict Society]]''. Also Jillson, who ties her ponytail with wire.

 

== Live-Action TV ==

* [[Unkempt Beauty|Kara Thrace]] from the rebooted ''[[Battlestar Galactica (2004 TV series)|Battlestar Galactica]]'', when her hair is long enough to be tied back.

* [[Lois Lane]] often sported a Tomboyish Ponytail on ''[[Smallville]]''.

 

== Video Games ==

* Princess "Eva" Evangeline of the Kingdom of the Northern Reaches, poster girl for ''[[Dungeon Siege|Dungeon Siege II,]]'' sports this look, as did her predecessor from the first game, officially known as Farm Girl.

 

* Mion of ''[[Higurashi no Naku Koro ni]]'', but she is girly at heart.

 

== Web Comics ==

* Zii of ''[[Ménage à 3]]''.

* Kate of ''[[Rhapsodies]]'' (When she doesn't have it in a pencil studded bun.)

 

== Web Original ==

* Sasha Hunter of ''[[Greek Ninja]]''.

 

== Western Animation ==
