Japanese media website DDNavi has once again taken to the streets of the Japanese anime capital of Akihabara, but this time, they asked the anime otakus in the area who did they think is the best red-haired anime character. Now, red hair may be a natural hair color, but it is also one of the rarest and it would be quite unnatural for East Asians, Japanese included, to have red hair.
After asking 100 people, they have now presented their results. Here they are:
7) Kuuko (Haiyore! Nyaruko-san)
This Lovecraftian fire monster… I mean loving lesbian alien is a Cthugha, the arch enemies of the Nyarlotephians, but that does not stop her from wanting to marry Nyaruko and she will do everything in her power to make her hers. She won’t hesitate to burn poor Mahiro to a crisp just to “have Nyaruko’s babies”. She also loves playing video games, to the point of obsession. Her lesbian tendencies, coupled with her video game addiction may be the reason she lands on the list at #7
6) Maki Nishikino (Love Live!)
This anime red head is known for her beautiful singing voice and the fact that she is a great composer. She is also one of the most charming and popular members of μ’s and her tsundere attitude makes her popular among many fans. Maki may often come out as straight-laced, but she truly cares for her friends.
5) Yoko Littner (Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann)
Known for her sexy way of dressing as well as her marksmanship, Yoko is one of the most iconic anime red heads out there and she is certainly one of Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann’s most popular characters. She has a strong character but she often shows her softer side, especially to the people she cares about. This sexy rebel is also very popular for cosplayers as many women just love cosplaying her.
4) Tamaki Kousaka (To-Heart 2)
This red-haired childhood friend acts as the “big sister” character for her friends and she is definitely mature enough to be. She hails from a rich family and is well-versed in many traditional Japanese customs and is hailed as a true “Yamato Nadeshiko” or “the ideal Japanese woman” by many fans.
3) Shana (Shakugan no Shana)
Her hair may originally be black, but once she unleashes her true power as a Flame Haze, her hair turns fiery red. Like her hair, her personality is also quite fiery and she is considered as one of the “Four Queens of Tsundere” along with Hayate the Combat Butler’s Nagi, The Familiar of Zero’s Louise and Taiga from Toradora. Like the other three, she is also voiced by Rie Kugimiya and also like the other three, she cares deeply for her friends, she just won’t admit it… Baka Baka Baka!
2) Akari Akaza (Yuru Yuri)
Come on, let’s say it: “Akariiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin!”. This lovely little red head may have “little personality” and she is often forgotten and is often relegated to the background by her co-stars but Akari is lovable and bubbly enough to get to the #2 spot beating out Shana! Come on, let’s say it again: “Akariiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin!”
1) Kyouko Sakura (Madoka Magica)
Taking the top spot is Madoka Magica’s lovable foodie, Kyouko Sakura. She has a fiery personality who only thinks of herself but mellows out as the series progresses. The Anime Otaku who have voted for her noted her “Gap Moe” tendencies in which her abrasive side and her mellow side are so different from one another that its so cute.
DDNavi has also previously asked the people of Akihabara on who is the best pink-haired anime character, who is the best Blue-haired anime character and who is the best green-haired anime character. They also asked Anime Otaku in Akihabara who is the best blonde twin-tailed anime character.
Do you agree with their findings?
