Legendary Longhairs in Anime Part II
The Long Hair Anime Legend Continues
The last list of anime hairstyles was left in the awkward stage according to some of you, overlooking (arguably) some of the best long hair in anime. After getting lambasted in the comments of Part 1, these new manes are here by your suggestions, because I’d never leave you high and dry.
It’s time to count down even more of the most overpowered do’s in all of anime.
The Heros
Jiraiya
Toad-al Long Hair for Life
Whether he’s training Naruto in the sage way or writing fiction that causes friction, this longhaired toad sage has the white weave to leave us weak-kneed.
Renji Abarai
Bone Swords and Crimson Locks
The Crimson Locked Soul Reaper has more spirit and shag than almost anyone in the series. No matter if it’s tied up or flowing free, the bone sword samurai kept pushing forward, no matter the odds.
Yoriichi Tsugikuni / Kokushibu
Brothers in Big Hair
The love and hate these bushy brothers have is like a flute in the night. Whether they were on the same side or fighting across the ages, steel sharpened steel and these swordsmen became legends for long hair in anime.
Afro
The Number One Headband Fan
While the journey from holder of the Number Two headband to the Number One isn’t for the faint of heart, the billowy fro belonging to Afro is something we can all aspire to.
Byakuya Kuchiki
Flowers and Flow
First-time antagonist and remainder-time hero, the Shinigami of Flowers and Flow is always ready to show what true tranquility is in combat, conversation and capelli.
Future Trunks
Future Long Hair
The purple-haired hero from the Android Saga, Trunks showed up to save Goku and show that long hair in anime is alive and well in the future. No matter HOW the purple haired prince has it styled, the flow will live on.
Nacht Faust and His Long Straight Hair
The Shadow of Straight Long Hair in Anime
A man born from shadow and devils, Nacht is one complicated long hair in anime. Going from a bushy bleach-blonde to his natural obsidian waterfall, his hair matches his character growth from carefree to responding to a higher calling.
Jin
The Samurai of Shampoo
This stoic samurai is a long-layered legend. Fighting for what is right and protecting those who are oppressed, this serious demeanor shows in the luster of his hair.
The Villains
Yujiro Hanma
The Strongest Longhair on Earth
The power to punch an earthquake into submission with the hair-raising skill to fight anything in his way, this Ogre of tasseled tresses is the pinnacle of muscle and style.
Garou
The Monster of Manes
The Hero Hunter is out on the prowl. With magnificent peaks on his reverse split pompadour, we don’t know what’s more dangerous about this long hair in anime, his fighting style or the amount of pomade he uses.
Eren Yeager
Attack on Tresses
The long hair and even longer story of Eren is what helped spark the great anime revolution. Whether he is attacking titans or teasing his tresses, Eren is here to change the world as we know it.
Madara Uchiha
The Hidden Long Hair Antagonist
The Ghost of the Uchiha is a hidden hair antagonist for the original Naruto series. With locks darker than night and a plan larger than his locks, no human can hope to stand in his way.
Sesshomaru
The Yokai Ronin
This platinum ronin has journeyed through the centuries in search of the strongest opponents and the greatest flow. This dogged pursuit of being the best created a great villain, and an even better anti-hero.
Raditz
The Intro Villain with the Mile-Long Mop
Not NEARLY as strong as his brother, Raditz does have something that could make Goku weep. That mile-long mop is enough to take a seat in the Saiyan hair hall of fame.
HONORABLE MENTION
(But Not Quite Anime)
Samurai Jack
A Man of Mane and Pain in Anime
While not QUITE an anime hero, Jack has inspired millions to the high ball life in his day. Whether he’s fighting the forces of Darkness or meditating on his future past, Jack will always be a man of the mane.
