Ahoge

Anybody else notice/agree that a majority of all these new characters are sporting too much ahoge?

I kinda liked it but damn, these people are making it into some sort of boring standard....

I guess in a world where people's hair looks almost the same, this is the only way to make the stand uniquely apart. lol

I have to disagree with the definition. Hair antennae =/= ahoge.

Ahoge = single lock of hair
Hair antennae = two locks of hair

In general, characters with hair antennae don't display ahoge-type traits. Although I do agree that having a bunch of hair sticking up from the head seems to be getting very common nowadays.

example of antenna hair
still, i consider im@s characters to have ahoge instead of antenna

For Azusa, Miki and Manami, yes.

But for characters like Makoto, Ritsuko, Ai, Ryo and the others, I think the term antennae is more appropriate.

You may call it antenna, but I personally think it's ahoge. Their 'antenna' is much too thick. I still believe it's ahoge at that width.
