| Literally any kind of pink haired character is totally crazy in one way or another. Why is pink so aciosated with being crazy like being yandere oddball psycho extremely wild etc. the list goes on with being crazy and pink. Why?? |
 Maybe watching, maybe reading, probably living |
| I guess it's because it's weird, bright and unnatural although characters like lacus clyne and mylene flare jenius were pretty normal |
| MEA·MENTVLA·INGENS·EST |
| No reason at all. It just happens that many(?) female characters with those bad traits have pink hair. There are also female characters like Hinagiku, Akari or Lala in othe other hand. |

| Eh I mean not every character But like isnt pink hair basically as common as black and brown hair in anime at this point such as you could associate it with any trope almost |
 |
| Pink haired ,sassy, twintails = best |
| I associate pink with useless cry baby :P Sakura Shirahoshi Rebecca |

_Maneki-Neko_ said: I associate pink hair more with "cute and innocent girls" because of magical girl tropes. Think of Madoka, Chibusa, Yuuna etc. Same here. Whenever someone mentiones pink hair the first character that comes to my mind is Ichigo from Tokyo Mew Mew. |
| I don't think of any female characters I automatically think of Natsu from Fairy Tail. |

Because it's a nice contrast. A sweet, cute, and playful colour like pink being associated with psychotic bitches lol  |
 |
| It's hard for me to associate pink haired characters as strictly always being crazy, since I actually feel like a lot of the characters are rather sweet. Take Miyuki Takara from Lucky Star for example. Of course, there will always be crazy ones too. |

| Pink hair anime girls are innocent or crazy, there is no in-between |
| Well, Chika Fujiwara is not crazy or psycho. She is funny. |

| There is Nadeshiko with pink hair in Yuru camp for example, or Sakura in Sakura quest and I wouldn't say they are crazy, though they are definitely energetic genki characters. |

| Saiki is a chill guy and doesn't have any of those traits. I think that misconception about pink being hair color of psycho is caused by a few characters that are really popular especially yuno gasai. |
 |
| Madoka is sweet and she has pink hair. Some are crazy like Yuno Gasai but I hate those types. |
  |
| dont forget... useless and egoist. |
| Now Loading..... |
| I can't untangle pink from heroines who are badass and magical. It's not a color that's been ruined by fetishes for me. |
Not always. My girl Moka has pink hair, and she's a total sweetheart (other than having a split personality disorder and being addicted to the blood of the MC). She's still a cute despite that. |
 |
| People with pink hair in real life are very crazy too, so that makes sense to me. |

Yuno Gasai, simple answer here, easily the best example of that type. A ping haired, crazy psychotic insane yandere with bizarre mood-swings who never cased to give me the chills throughout my viewing experience of Mirai Nikki. She's the main reason I liked the show quite a bit despite all the several plot-holes & cheap elements it has.  |

| Not really... I think most of pink haired heroine in Shojo anime is cute and strong. |

It's HINAGIKU Time!!! |

| I don't know but I like them pink hair. Yuno, Satou, 02, Amira, Takagi Saya, all of them are hot awesome chicks |
    |
| ive got to add Ebisu from Dorohedoro, very cute but total airhead |

| There's a trope about it. https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/RoseHairedSweetie Sometimes it's done straight like with Astolfo or Himegoto.   Sometimes it's done creepy, like with Super Saiyan Rose or Black Moon Chibi.   |
| WRONG! I present the anime GOAT as evidence:  |
| @Haneken2086 pls dont remind me of himegoto, that was such a mistake, but okay he is the more "timid" character. still not very normal tho. |

| Well, we got Hinagiku Katsura, Inori (Guilty Crown), Kofuku (Noragami) and Louise (Zero no Tsukaima) which aren’t that crazy after all. Still, I would agree that pink doesn’t make much sense when it’s used to emphasize the craziness, because red would fit better. |

Such a cute little whimsical goddess |

| Aww, what about Madoka? She’s not crazy; she’s sweet, sensitive, and innocent. |
| Pink is almost as common as natural hair colors. I don't really think it works like you're saying it does. |

Or you could just scroll up, seeing as you've been getting slammed with them for most of this thread. I'm not just going to sit here and reiterate examples that have been brought up enough already to appease you, especially in a context where you're quoting me and singling out that I'm not bringing up specifics whenever you're surrounded by counter-examples as is. |
|
| Well, right now I'm watching To Love-Ru, and Lala is not crazy. I think xD |
 |
i just watched argonavis and the pink haired boys aren't crazy i think... neither are the pink haired girls in bang dream!  |
 |
| they don't need to be crazy, but they always find a way to stand out or be more eccentric than others. I still need to watch those shows to confirm what you said. @hcoctopus2 |

| Most of them but not every pink haired character. For example deviluke sisters. Lala - cheerful and easygoing Nana - Tsundere tomboy Momo - Sweet and a bit obsessive |
 |
2life said: I've checked Top 50 Anime Girls with Pink Hair on MAL and think it's a full spectrum, including but not limited to "weird" personality and character designs. All *dere types are present. Examples of famous pink haired characters without psycho traits: Akari Mizunashi, Watashi, Madoka Kaname, Miwako Sakurada, so got any counter examples otherwise it would mean not much? Nono, Saya Takagi, Rumiho Akiha, Utena Tenjou. |
