(also, pubic hair in hentai doesn't count)

Is there any anime where the character has actual body hair? (chest hair, pit hair, stomach hair, arm hair, doesn't matter which)

Seriously, it seems to be even rarer then the elusive long skirt, the only character I have ever seen with body hair in anime so far has been Freddie from Cromartie High School.

Pretty sure Hercule (Or Mr. Satan, whatever you wanna call him) in DBZ had body hair.



I also believe a couple characters in One Piece have body hair as well. But you're right, there isn't much.

I get the impression Japanese people don't suffer as much from body hair as we do.

Legend of the Galactic Heroes has a decent amount of beards and moustaches, like Mecklinger, Merkatz, Bucock, Lennenkampf and Steinmetz. Mostly supporting characters though.

In Gintama, in the tamatebako arc, some "tortoises" have chest hair.
There's a guy in Basilisk with a lot of hair, which he uses as a weapon, but I'm pretty sure I already saw that elsewhere (there's probably a hairy youkai meme behind those).

--It's true. Like Native American people, Asians don't have as much body hair as those of European heritage. Interestingly, in historical scrolls and wood cuts, Europeans are depicted with copious hair and big noses. They also thought we stank and, not being given to bathing, we did!

And DAMN OUR GENES for body hair.

To answer the question: from anime I recently watched, Pretty Rhythm: Aurora Dream has a minor character with body hair (many anime do that for comedic purposes) and of course Uchuu Kyoudai, whose main lead has some natural body hair (unlike sparkle sparkle Shun kun of everyanime).

Lupin the Third seems to have hair on the male characters hands. Which I thought was an interesting detail I haven't seen in much anime.

Also hairy legs, which is sometimes a detail anime add in to old/middle aged men crossdressing.

Yeah, we Asians don't really have that much body hair, but at the same time, we generally lack in height which makes me sad =( . . .

heh, I think of the scene in You Only Live Twice when Sean Connery takes off his shirt for a massage and the japanese girl runs off scared.
