Who on LHC is influenced by Anime, Manga and other Japanese animation and games (like the Touhou Project) to grow their hair to lengths of your favorite character? And if so, how long do you have to go/how long is your hair?

I plan on growing my hair as long as either Fujiwara no Mokou's or Horaisin Kaguya's! Anyone else got a goal of the sort?

I like Leena Lee's hair, from D Gray-Man. I think it's a beautiful length, I'd never put it up like she does but it's great hair nonetheless :p
I've always loved anime hair, even though D Gray-Man is the only actual anime I've ever watched :o

I never thought of it as a length goal, but in my life I have certainly tried to do anime styles (like the one in my avatar!) and been disappointed that I would need significantly longer hair. Ribbons however give the desired feeling of length! So much long hair to admire in anime.

I had to google the characters to see what you meant. Nice length but for the second pic I like a clean cut straight fringe more than the layered style.:D

I'll admit anime was a big inspiration for me when I began wishing for long hair! It started with Lucy from Elfen Lied. Some of my other favorite long haired characters include Ai from Jigoku Shoujo, Rika from Higurashi no Naku Koro ni, and Holo from Spice and Wolf.

I'm not currently trying to grow to anime lengths though, just waist length. :)

I've come to realize I've always wanted sailor Venus hair, well since I was ten years old. That summer I got my hair cut in a deep v and kept that hemline for years. So I'm going to classic+ with a v hemline as I still love sailor v.

I'm so glad I'm not alone with anime hairstyles... There's someone I forgot about!! Kikyo's hair from Inuyasha!! I love her hair!!! Or quite possible Seshomaru's YAY!!!

This thread is more popular than I thought I would be... getting six posts in over 1-2 hours since I posted the first time...

Anybody want me to post a picture depicting what kind of game Touhou is? Or is that more of a gaming thread thing??

Well there is a lot of different anime lengths, but I do love how nice the butt length anime girls look. I wear wigs for this purpose but am hoping for some nice classic length hair.

I love Sailor Moon too! My favorite character is Sailor Chibi Moon and I think I dyed my hair pink for a while for that reason too. I'm curious to verify if their hairstyles are physically possible when I get enough length and volume (they really need a lot of them! Just to make those big buns and still get those long and big pigtails...).

ME ME ME! :D
I don't really watch that much anime, but there are a million and one long hairs there that I'm inspired by :D
Of course, Sailor Moon :P I also dream, as unrealistically as it is, for the density of anime hair. Actually.. as inspiring as it all is, there isn't really anything so inspiring that is both long & curly haired :( Nearly no anime character supports this.

ETA:
Nevermind, found someone LOL! Beautiful! No idea of the anime though.

Yuko Ichihara from xxxHolic. Her hair is roughly knee length which is what I'm aiming for. I didn't want to grow my hair out because of an anime but it has given me a little boost of enthusiasm and inspiration.

The hair is definitely one of the things I love about anime! I don't quite take any characters as a model, because when I start to think about it some hysterical corner of my brain says "y'know who has great hair? Princess Hinoto!", which, I mean half the reason her hair looks so long is because she's so short, and also she doesn't move so that has to change your hair routine, and also there's a difference between 1a and 3c hair that has to be an accepted part of life. But I do like to watch and imagine having some of the relatively mid-length styles; I like the voluminous hip-length look that the tough sexy adult woman characters often have, and I bet I could achieve an approximation!

Sailor Moon's odango are defiently possible, I've done it on my hair a few times! Chibi-Moon's not so much, well the "cone" part isn't really possible but the poof of her pigtail part is. :D

I love Sailor Moon's hair! She is probably one of the reasons I decided to start growing out my hair when I was a kid. I recently bleached my hair and cut in some bangs specifically so that I could cosplay her for Comic Con.

The only anime that ever influenced me was Marina the little mermaid when I was a little girl. The movie always made me cry, but I really did love her hair and wished mine was just like her's as a little girl.

I thought I'd just post one of the songs that was in the movie (it shows lots of her and her hair I think), this one is actually the Japanese movie, but I had the English version as a child.

Well, anime hair is a pretty much reason for much of my inspiration since most anime heroins have longer than hip hair.
Which I find myself looking at all the time when I watch a anime or read a manga.

I really like Kyou from Clannad hair or Sora Kasugano silver hair or even Yuno from Mirai Nikki pink hair :crush:
I think I'm a little obsessed when it comes to stuff like that.

Lots of anime girls and their hair inspired me to grow mine out. Especially the dark haired ones. (Since I'm dark headed, heh) Coming to mind are Azumanga Daioh, xxxHolic, Ah! My Goddess, Love Hina, etc. Though, I'm longer than most now-days, so when I see a girl with hair my length I get exited, lol.

Lots of anime hair inspires me but the winner will always be Tsukino Usagi from Sailor Moon. I didn't tell my boyfriend but he teased me a lot when he put two and two together about how I want long hair like hers. I want to grow my hair past my feet and maybe sometimes copy her style, though the rest of the time it would probably be in standard buns or braids.

I'm getting an extra dose of inspiration because next year (summer) they're releasing a new Sailor Moon series worldwide simultaneously. Of course, I hope this will lead to a re-translation and bluray release of the original five seasons and movies.

Anime is pretty much why I wanted to grow my hair out in the first place ^^' In fact I made a deal with myself that if I made it to 50" that I would wear it like Sailor Moon just once ! lol

Oh yes! Anime is always the best place to go for inspiration. I'd like Sailor mars length hair or Hair like Tomoyo's in Cardcaptors.

Tomoyo's hair looks even more awesome in Tsubasa Chronicles.

ah CLAMP my favourite manga artisits, the way they draw hair and clothes is just amazing. Especially Chi and Freya from Chobits their hair is amazing

I can braid my hair under my chin like that too. Anyhow, I agree.

Despite the braid's creepiness, I think it is awesome that your hair is long enough to braid like that.

I should probably finish Card Captors and start Chobits. I really think Chi has awesome hair!

Has anyone mentioned Rin from Fruits Basket? I always loved her hair before it got so cruelly chopped off.

I love the hair you find in allot of anime, much of it is not physically possible but I love it anyway. While anime was not my main motivation for growing my hair out, I do get inspired by anime when I watch it as there are so much beautiful long hair on both men and women there. Some of my favorites are Sera and Eu from kore wa zombie, Mira from Goddanar, Sailor Mars and Sailor Pluto from Sailor Moon, Golden Darkness from To Love Ru. But there is really to much amazing anime hair to mention them all.

Anime/game character hair inspires me more than real hair does! Most of their hair are physically impossible, yet I drool over them. There's no particular character in mind right now... except for Mavis (http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mattdiZT691rggg7co1_400.png) ...and Sakagami Tomoyo (http://img1.ak.crunchyroll.com/i/spire4/10032008/9/9/5/b/995bc292d74320_full.jpg).


My friends are the same way. I am surprised no one mentioned Jushiro or Unohana (her braid really freaks me out). I always thought that Ichigo looked out of place, almost all of the other main male characters are really nice looking and he's there. It wasn't until the time skip that I finally thought, "Wow, now he really belongs in the series" lol.

Juushirou: such sexy hair!
I've tried Unohana's braid once. It, er, didn't turn out anything like it...

sorry if the pictures are too big since i got them from google ;)


YAY!! Another Lucky Star fan!! I like Konata's hair!! Also Haruhi's before she cut her hair and met Kyon or in The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya!! Her hair was LONG, and the same color as mine; only mine's lighter colored and wavy... There is Mikuru's and Tsuriya's hair too... Wow...

Am I an otaku or what? (=`ω´=)

Haruhi before she cut off her length and Mio are the two characters I would love to be able to cosplay, using my real hair! Their hair length is currently my motivation to keep growing. I also need to find a cute top hat to pin at a cocky angle. =p

I love anime and manga. Admittedly, one of the first things I look at is the long hair of the characters, and cursing at how beautifully gravity defying they are... I mean, right? How do they do that?!

Hehehe I was just thinking something similar. Tifa from FF7 was a big inspiration for me:

Sephiroth is also awesome. I think he might be some of the first ever long white hair I ever saw. I might be able to pull of his colour sometime, but not his length or straightness! Tifa I stand more of a shot at I think.

Hikari from S·A:Special A. Unfortunately for me, because my hair is curly and brown, I will never be able to attain her hair, but I'll settle for her length.

Also, when I was younger I too was a Sailor Moon fan. My favorite was Jupiter because she has hair like me! I dressed as her for Halloween 3 years ago, but my hair is now longer than hers in most drawings. I was always sad that next to Mercury (out of the inner senshi at least) hers was the shortest hair.

I don't know anything about anime hair but I really love Sarah's hair in the movie "Labyrinth" - it's sooo glossy and shiny and thick too!

I feel stupid now for starting this thread about "anime length hair" and the pictures I posted are from a game series called "Touhou Project" ... The Touhou community is going to get furious at me. T.T;

I was wondering... How the crap can anime/game characters sleep with their hair loose and then not have to brush/comb it out in the morning? I know that they don't act like hair in real life but... Tidbit to think about I guess. :)

Same way their hair can defy gravity: magic and cartoon logic. lol
But in Sailor Moon and Cardcaptor Sakura there are epsiodes which show the girls brushing/styling their hair!

Alexiel does have gorgeous hair, but I was always more envious of Astarte's..I know there is no color image of her, but it is still so pretty, and dark red :) That used to be my goal hair. Also Jibrille's color! A perfect non-obnoxious light blue.

I'm pretty grateful I'm not alone in taking inspiration from anime ladies for hairstyle/length... always felt a bit weird 'cause of it :P
