I think girls with long hair look MUCH BETTER then girls who have short cut hair , and I feel like that 75% if not MORE of the anime I watch the main characters fall for the girl with short hair, and it annoys me as I dislike girls with short hair.

So are girls with short cut hair more attractive to Japan? As to blonds are popular in USA...

I actually love girls with short hair, but I don't really mind long hair.

It's a sign that shows you that you need to go out and look for REAL women with long hair.

What's the deal?, the creator must have a fetish on short haired girl, you can always watch other shows where all the female characters is long haired

I know it pretty much comes down to preferences but when most of the anime out there that does have romance in it has the main character falling for the short cut hair girl, I'm just wondering if that's a popular attractive style in Japan as to blonds are popular in USA, that's what I'm wondering.

I see it the exact opposite, lol. I like girls with shorter hair much better, i dont really thing its a cultural thing more then just personal preference.

I actually like Short Hair over long, Long hair is kinda boring, but it depends.
It doesn't think, it doesn't feel, it doesn't laugh or cry..... All it does from dusk till dawn is make the soldiers die.

Yeah I tend to agree, girls with long hair are much more attractive...at least to me anyway. Short hair is alright, to a point. Anything too extreme just looks butchy though.

It's just the author's preference.

Come to think of it, most characters with big breasts have long hairs right? Maybe the ones to get the guy are mostly the normal girls.

Short or long hair doesn't matter to me. No matter what length the hair or how awesome the looks, if the character is useless and dependent, that pisses me off.

I have a friend who will hate a female character, especially a main one, if she has short hair.

For example, she's a huge Yuu Watase fan and loves all the main characters except Alice from Alice 19th. That's because of her short hair. I love Alice. lol

Wrong. It's the law of anime, if two girls compete for a guy, the one with longer hair wins.

Suzumiya Haruhi look much better with short hair, IMO.

And Osaki Nana's short hair suits her character oh-so-well.


I was gonna say that it probably reflects what you like IRL, then I realised I find anime males with long hair to be really appealing. Not sure I feel the same way about long-haired men in real life. Some can be really pretty, though, like this one fashion designer from my country who's such a beauty with his long, silky hair. Gay, obviously, but so pretty *.*

I... disagree. I once talk to some international students about short hair girl are not as alluring, they showed me picture the next day...

Because short hair is hot, both in anime and real life. I find that it looks really great on a lot of the japanese girls.

I've noticed this too. There's actually a scientific study that found a connection between perceived intelligence and hair length. Girls with longer hair were judged as being more intelligent by their teachers at school.

I think short, long, medium... it all depends on how well the character can pull off the style. There are as many cute short-haired girls (Rena Ryuuguu, Sakura Kinomoto, Yuki Nagato, etc.) as long-haired ones.

I agree that short hair can look good on an girl but like some have said it all depends but for me though 90% of the time if not all the time, they still look better with long hair in my personal preference.

And about the anime law where the long hair girl wins, PLEASE let me know what anime your watching cause I've seen lots of short hair girls win over the long hair (more attractive) girl character. If that wasn't true I wouldn't be complaining.

I've seen VERY LITTLE anime where the better looking girl with long hair wins...
