History FieryRedhead / AnimeAndManga

* Madame Red from ''Manga/BlackButler''

* Jet Link--AKA Cyborg 002--from ''Manga/{{Cyborg 009}}''.

* Kei of ''LightNovel/DirtyPair''.

* Shayla-Shayla from ''Anime/ElHazardTheMagnificentWorld''.
* ''Manga/FairyTail''
** Natsu, a male version, though his hair is more pink.
** Erza Scarlet also, to a certain extent.
** Knightwalker, on the other hand, is this very much so.
* Mai Shiranui is one of these in the second ''VideoGame/FatalFury'' OVA and TheMovie. She is passionate, outgoing, and outspoken, and has [[PlayingWithFire fire based]] attacks to top it off -- although her physical strength is [[{{Chickification}} sadly underplayed]]. However, in most of the [[VideoGame/TheKingOfFighters games]], she is usually represented with brown or black (with purple highlights) hair, but her cheerful, combative personality is the same ''and'' she gets to keep her ActionGirl credentials.

* Tasuki from ''Manga/FushigiYuugi''.
* Angel Omachi from ''Galaxy Cyclone Bryger''.
* Ayako Matsuzaki from ''Manga/GhostHunt''.

* ''Anime/HanaukyoMaidTai''. Ryuuka in ''La Verite''. In the first season, she had brown hair.

* Bossy, HotBlooded Princess Flora of ''HoneyHoneyNoSutekiNaBouken''.

* The main character Koizumi Risa from {{Lovely Complex}}
** And her boyfriend [[TheNapoleon Otani Atsushi]]

* Inaho Hitomebore from ''Master of Mosquiton 99''.
* Matilda Ajan, from ''Anime/MobileSuitGundam''.

* Lirin of ''Manga/{{Saiyuki}}'' definitely qualifies. While most of her behavior is more like "annoying", she has a hair-trigger temper and will scream at or drop boulders on people who annoy her.
* Princess Rubina from ''Anime/UFORoboGrendizer'' -one of the ''Anime/MazingerZ'' sequels could be quite the spitfire when she was angry. She was the only dared to call the BigBad out.
* Leccee from ''Anime/HeavyMetalLGaim'' was a quite temperamental redhead, especially when Kyao or someone else -[[CatFight coughAmucough]]- got her annoyed.
* Ayano Kannagi from ''LightNovel/KazeNoStigma'' is a red-haired fire magic user.
* Shana, the Flame-Haired, Fire-Eyed demon huntress from ''ShakuganNoShana''.
* Seira Morimura from ''PrincessNine''. Fits since she is hot-tempered.
* Another literal example is Rin from ''Anime/YesPrecure5''. Her hair even turns into a flame-esque style after her transformation.

* Lina Inverse from ''LightNovel/{{Slayers}}''. Bonus points because she has a tendency to make everything go into flames when she's really pissed off.
** It doesn't take much to piss her off either. She once let off a fireball in restaraunt because a fight broke out and her food got spilled.She had to be physically stopped from using one of the most powerful spells out there, called the Dragon Slave, on one of her friends because she wouldn't go back to her employer pretending Lina beat her.
* Inaho Hitomebore from ''Master of Mosquiton 99''.

* Rika Nonaka from ''Anime/DigimonTamers'' started as an [[ArrogantKungFuGuy Arrogant Kung Fu Girl]], and through all the series she remained as a Tomboy ActionGirl always willing to fight.
* Asuka Langley Soryu in ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion'' was a HotBlooded, hot-tempered redhead.
* Mai Tokiha of ''Anime/{{Mai-HiME}}'' is a subversion: she's a redhead with fire-based powers and presented as an example of this trope in the first episode with her violent outbursts at Yuuichi, but after that, she's shown to be [[CoolBigSis compassionate and caring]] and remains that way until things go ''really'' bad for her and everyone else.
** The manga plays it a bit straighter, giving Mai more of a loose temper that her anime counterpart, kept under better control. Both versions were played as "gutsy" and "passionate", which could fall under the redhead stereotype.

* Ahiru from ''Anime/PrincessTutu'' isn't very strong in terms of combat, but she otherwise fits the description perfectly. (And she ''does'' catch the local {{Jerkass}} off guard once).
* Himeno from ''{{Pretear}}'', another Junichi Sato MagicalGirl anime, is a firey RedHeadedHero as well.
* Satella from ''Manga/ChronoCrusade'', a {{tsundere}} and "jewel witch".
* Kurisu from ''VisualNovel/SteinsGate''.
* Kallen Stadtfeld from ''Anime/CodeGeass''. In fact, ''everything'' about her is red, from her rebel headband to her mecha - even the outfits she wears are associated with the color red.
* Mai Shiranui is one of these in the second ''VideoGame/FatalFury'' OVA and TheMovie. She is passionate, outgoing, and outspoken, and has [[PlayingWithFire fire based]] attacks to top it off -- although her physical strength is [[{{Chickification}} sadly underplayed]]. However, in most of the [[VideoGame/TheKingOfFighters games]], she is usually represented with brown or black (with purple highlights) hair, but her cheerful, combative personality is the same ''and'' she gets to keep her ActionGirl credentials.
* Misty in her early appearances in the ''Anime/{{Pokemon}}'' anime. Ironically, she specializes in ''Water''-type Pokémon.
** Flannery, on the other hand, does use Fire-types. Both typecasting and hotheadedness worked to her detriment in the [[Manga/PokemonSpecial manga]] back at Mt. Chimney, but she puts up a fight while stalling Kyogre later on.
-->''I'm not afraid of you! Just come and face me... '''Sapphire!'''''
** Jessie, the most {{Badass}} member of the Team Rocket trio.
** Zoey qualifies delightfully.
* Matilda Ajan, from ''Anime/MobileSuitGundam''.
* Kei of ''LightNovel/DirtyPair''.
* Madame Red from ''Manga/BlackButler''

* Lucy from ''Manga/ElfenLied'' is a [[AxCrazy homicidally]] FieryRedhead (or more specifically, hot pink head). She could also be counted as an EvilRedhead.

* ''BrainPowerd'''s Hime Utsumiya is not quite as fiery as other examples listed above, but she still has an outgoing personality (and [[{{Tsundere}} won't hesitate]] [[SlapSlapKiss to call out Yuu]] when necessary) and is [[MartialPacifist an excellent fighter despite her preference for diplomacy]].
* Chocolat from ''SugarSugarRune''
* Kyouko Mogami from ''Manga/SkipBeat'', even if, in reality, her hair is black. After her ImportantHaircut, she turns out to be [[HotBlooded extremely fiery]].

* Angel Omachi from ''Galaxy Cyclone Bryger''.
* Kiddy Phenil of ''SilentMoebius'', but only in the TV series. Her hair is green in every other version.
* Admiral Bittenfeld from ''LegendOfTheGalacticHeroes'' and Alliance soldier Katerose von Kreutzer. Averted with Admiral Kircheis, a fellow redhead.
* ''Manga/{{Bleach}}'': Renji and Jinta are both as HotBlooded as they come and have the scarlet hair to match.
* ''Manga/RanmaOneHalf'' sort of has the titular character. As a teenager who was raised his entire life to fight and win in martial arts duels, Ranma Saotome has the general [[ArrogantKungFuGuy hot-headed]], [[NobodyCallsMeChicken impulsive]], passionate personality to fit into this trope. However, in his normal form, he's a black-haired ''boy''. Thanks to [[GenderBender Jusenkyo]] and an AdaptationDyeJob, he can gain the right sex and hair color and loses none of the attitude that lets him qualify.

* Jet Link--AKA Cyborg 002--from ''Manga/{{Cyborg 009}}''.
* Angel Salvia from ''Manga/WeddingPeach'', although green-haired Angel Daisy is also pretty fiery as well.
* Kyo Sohma from ''Manga/FruitsBasket''. [[SpearCounterpart He may be male]], but he practically ''is'' this trope.
* Anne Shirley in the anime version of ''Literature/AnneOfGreenGables'', [[CaptainObvious who, in turn, is based on Anne Shirley in the novel series]] ''Literature/AnneOfGreenGables'', mentioned in the literature section below.
* Nami from ''LightNovel/FullMetalPanic'', who encompasses most of the cliches that go with it. Hot tempered, passionate about what she does, outgoing, and fiery...the only thing is that, she's not ''nearly'' as violent as {{Tsundere}} [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair Kaname]] and, more often than not, actually ''tries'' to be gentle and nice around Sousuke, the guy she likes.
** That might have something to do with the fact that, in the original novels, she ''doesn't'' have red hair -- her hair is described as "brown and unkempt". The red version was strictly the illustrator's fault. Then again, in the novels, Kaname doesn't have blue hair, either...
* The titular character from ''Anime/CuteyHoney''. No matter what hair colour she has, she's still very fiery.
* Mana the tomboy in ''OnegaiMyMelody'': a martial arts expert who is not adverse to using her kicks.
* Subverted in ''SoltyRei'' with Accela, who is very shy and timid (at least, until she goes LaughingMad in the last few episodes).
* Averted with Mikuru from ''LightNovel/HaruhiSuzumiya'', who is probably the meekest, most timid member of the main cast and definitely a contrast to the fiery brunette main character.
* ''Anime/HanaukyoMaidTai''. Ryuuka in ''La Verite''. In the first season, she had brown hair.
* Nakiami from ''XamdLostMemories'' is a subversion. She has red hair, but is taciturn and shows little to no interest in romance. She is an undeniable {{Badass}}, though...
* Tiara, the heroine of ''Anime/ShamanicPrincess'', is a very powerful FullContactMagic user with a penchant for {{slasher smile}}s and [[TauntButton taunting]] her opponents. It's a good thing she's up against AntiMagic users and [[YouCannotGraspTheTrueForm nigh-incomprehensible gods]], or the story would be over really quick.
* ''Manga/FairyTail''
** Natsu, a male version, though his hair is more pink.
** Erza Scarlet also, to a certain extent.
** Knightwalker, on the other hand, is this very much so.
* Bossy, HotBlooded Princess Flora of ''HoneyHoneyNoSutekiNaBouken''.
* ''LightNovel/TrinityBlood'': Astaroth Aslan ''used'' to be a redhead when she was young (a traumatic event turned it gray/white, all but a streak). Esther Blanchett also fits, especially in the manga. She has more a grounded personality in the novels.

* Terrence, the hero of ''Manga/{{Dreamland}}'', subverts this: he is a redhead and has fiery powers, but is nonchalant and not really eager to fight. [[{{Jerkass}} Eve]], however, plays the trope straight.
* Also subverted by pacifist Kenshin from ''Manga/RurouniKenshin''.
* Both of the Grant brothers in ''Manga/MarmaladeBoy'', but specially [[LovableJock Brian]]. Michael is more of a {{Keet}}.
* In ''SaintBeast'', Maya has a tendency to throw tantrums when things don't go his way.
* Shonen Onmyouji has this in the shikigami Guren/Toada as well as Takeshi.
* Rias Gremory of ''LightNovel/HighSchoolDXD'': She's actually a very passionate and friendly girl. It's when she's get mad ([[ClingyJealousGirl and it normally concerns]] [[LoveInterest Issei]]) that you have to watch out for her.
* The main character Koizumi Risa from {{Lovely Complex}}
** And her boyfriend [[TheNapoleon Otani Atsushi]]
* Kotori from ''LightNovel/DateALive'' fits, being [[SplitPersonality both]] [[GenkiGirl highly energetic and passionate]] as Shidou's sister, and having a temper as the Commmander. [[spoiler: We find out she has [[PlayingWithFire fire powers]] later also.]]

* Although Hikaru Shidou of ''Manga/MagicKnightRayearth'' is normally a friendly GenkiGirl, she is also very HotBlooded and gets ''mad'' when someone or something hurts her friends. Fittingly, her ElementalPowers are all about fire.

* Lirin of ''Saiyuki'' definitely qualifies. While most of her behavior is more like "annoying", she has a hair-trigger temper and will scream at or drop boulders on people who annoy her.

* Another literal example is Rin from ''YesPrecure5''. Her hair even turns into a flame-esque style after her transformation.

* Lina Inverse from ''{{Slayers}}''. Bonus points because she has a tendency to make everything go into flames when she's really pissed off.

* ''MagicalGirlLyricalNanoha'' has Vita, Teana, Agito, and Nove, who are all redheads with short fuses. For an extra kick, Agito is a literal fire elemental.

* Satella from ''ChronoCrusade'', a {{tsundere}} and "jewel witch".
* Kurisu from SteinsGate.

* Mai Shiranui is one of these in the second ''FatalFury'' OVA and TheMovie. She is passionate, outgoing, and outspoken, and has [[PlayingWithFire fire based]] attacks to top it off -- although her physical strength is [[{{Chickification}} sadly underplayed]]. However, in most of [[FatalFury the]] [[TheKingOfFighters games]], she is usually represented with brown or black (with purple highlights) hair, but her cheerful, combative personality is the same ''and'' she gets to keep her ActionGirl credentials.

* Madame Red from ''BlackButler''

* Jet Link--AKA Cyborg 002--from ''{{Cyborg 009}}''.

* The titular character from ''CuteyHoney''. No matter what hair colour she has, she's still very fiery.

* ''Anime/TrinityBlood'': Astaroth Aslan ''used'' to be a redhead when she was young (a traumatic event turned it gray/white, all but a streak). Esther Blanchett also fits, especially in the manga. She has more a grounded personality in the novels.

* [[LargeHam Nobunaga]] of ''SengokuOtome'' was told to squeeze a pipe to calm her down whenever she became frustrated. She does this, but it doesn't stop her from threatening ghosts who aren't scared of her stories.
* ''SonicX'''s incarnation of Knuckles.

* Both of the Grant brothers in MarmaladeBoy, but specially [[LovableJock Brian]]. Michael is more of a {{Keet}}.

* Rias Gremory of ''HighSchoolDXD'': She's actually a very passionate and friendly girl. It's when she's get mad ([[ClingyJealousGirl and it normally concerns]] [[LoveInterest Issei]]) that you have to watch out for her.

* Tiara from ''ShamanicPrincess''.

** Sakura, even though, technically, she has [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair hot pink hair]].

* ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'''s [[spoiler:mother]], Kushina, was one of these, though she mellowed (slightly) with age. She was nicknamed "the Bloody Habanero[=/=]the Red Hot-blooded Habanero" because her face resembled a tomato...and because she beat the pulp out of every person that called her "Tomatohead".

* Shayla-Shayla from ''ElHazard''.

* Kyouko from ''Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica''. While an {{Expy}} of the trope image Asuka in terms of personality and color scheme, her hair is more of a deep maroon than Asuka's more coppery tone.

* Kyouko from ''Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica''.

** Natsu, a male version.

* Renji Abarai and Ichigo Kurosaki from ''Manga/{{Bleach}}''. That's all.
** Subverted with Orihime, whose hair is the same orangey color as Ichigo's. However, she's so sweet-tempered that she hardly ever gets mad even when Rukia says she should.

* Leccee from ''Anime/HeaveyMetalLGaim'' was a quite temperamental redhead, especially when Kyao or someone else -[[CatFight coughAmucough]]- got her annoyed.

* Asuka Langley Soryu (pictured above) in ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion''. Less so in the ''RebuildOfEvangelion'' series.

* Kotori from ''Anime/DateALive'' fits, being [[SplitPersonality both]] [[GenkiGirl highly energetic and passionate]] as Shidou's sister, and having a temper as the Commmander. [[spoiler: We find out she has [[PlayingWithFire fire powers]] later also.]]

* Kotori from DateALive fits, being [[SplitPersonality both]] [[GenkiGirl highly energetic and passionate]] as Shidou's sister, and having a temper as the Commmander. [[spoiler: We find out she has [[PlayingWithFire fire powers]] later also.]]
