* Pretty much every single {{Super Robot|Genre}} pilot from the good ol' days. In the 70s, this was mostly because it was a pretty popular hairstyle, but by the '80s it pretty much became a pre-requisite of being a badass pilot. The most iconic example has to be Ryoma of ''Manga/GetterRobo'' (Which, in a bit of irony, was ''not'' written by Creator/GoNagai as is widely believed, but by Creator/KenIshikawa. He just pitched the concept, although he was a heavy influence on the art style). ''Armageddon'' Ryoma sports a pair so huge that they probably warp space-time.
* Creator/LeijiMatsumoto is a bit fond of this look. ''Anime/Interstella5555'', for example, has these on about half of the main cast. Susumu/Derek of ''Anime/SpaceBattleshipYamato'' doesn't normally have them, but he looks like he does when he puts his helmet on.
* A common trait in characters designed by Kazuhiko Shimamoto. You might recognize him as the character designer for ''Anime/MobileFighterGGundam'' '''and''' [[Anime/LuckyStar Anime Tenchou]].

** Kunio Okawara in ''Manga/GundamSousei'' has a mean pair. He's not, however, [[TheStoic even closely comparable]] to Creator/YoshiyukiTomino in his hot-bloodedness, and Tomino is entirely bald.
%%** ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamAge'' gives us Second Generation!Woolf..



* Ban Keiji and Itsuki Myoudouin of ''Anime/HeartcatchPrettyCure'' have these kinds of sideburns. While they are quite hot-blooded, their manliness can be questioned as one draws ''doujin'' of the Pretty Cures and the other [[{{Bifauxnen}} is actually a girl]].
* ''Webcomic/HetaliaAxisPowers'':
** [[NationsAsPeople Lithuania]] has this hairstyle but he's such a sweet, patient NiceGuy that he could be the ultimate aversion - [[http://37.media.tumblr.com/caa4ab5b1e7f3eb494edced0705f6645/tumblr_mud7ogknbt1s8cv8so2_1280.jpg except]] [[http://www.hetarchive.net/scanlations/files/gj4.gif for]] [[http://i538.photobucket.com/albums/ff345/DarkBlueSinger/Hetalia%20Resources/Lithuania.jpg when he's not]].

** Tetsuya Tsurugi from ''Anime/GreatMazinger'' has thick curly sideburns, and is prone to self-destructive tendecies of jealousy and aggression. It is also noted that while his predecessor Kouji was carefree and enthusiastic, Tetsuya is serious, cranky and very gloomy.
* Franky from ''Manga/OnePiece'' weaponized his. His "Franky Triangle Jacker" consists of him plucking off his sideburns and throwing them like sharp boomerangs.
* Takashi Kawamura from ''Manga/ThePrinceOfTennis''. He's not that HotBlooded tho, mostly a NiceGuy... [[SplitPersonality most of the time.]]
%%* Everyone in the movie and OAV designs of ''Manga/RanmaOneHalf''. While the manga art gives them only thin lines to separate the ear from the cheek, and Atsuko Nakajima's early anime designs made them slightly more noticeable, her revamped designs for later seasons, movies, and [=OAVs=] blew up their sideburns into enormous puffs of hair with intricate detail.

Characters with HotBloodedSideburns in AnimeAndManga.

[[quoteright:655:[[Anime/FutureRobotDaltanious https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kentotate4.jpg]] ]]
*''Franchise/{{Devilman}}'': Akira Fudo in most incarnations has a pair of three-or-four pointed sideburns behind his neck, and is a JerkWithAHeartOfGold after fusing with Amon. He's certainly rude and aggressive, but cares a lot about Earth and it's people, especially Miki. And then his ''Manga/ViolenceJack'' incarnation.
*Ryo Utsugi, the prone-to-HulkingOut antagonist of ''Manga/DemonLordDante'', has thick sideburns.
*Hiroshi Shiba from ''Anime/KotetsuJeeg'' is a {{Hunk}} with untamed, wild sideburns and is very overprotective over his mother and sister. Threatening him is his BerserkButton and he ''will'' decimate you if you do. There's also Kenji from the sequel.
* The titular heroine from ''Anime/CuteyHoney'' wears a female version of this: she has [[HimeCut short side locks with a certain square shape]] as Honey Kisaragi, but they turn into somewhat longer, messy wild locks that simulate sideburns as Cutey Honey.
* All the main characters of the ''Anime/RobotRomanceTrilogy'':
** Hyoma Aoi from ''Anime/CombattlerV'' has thin ones. He has a lot of anger isses due to his DarkAndTroubledPast. While he's often rude and playful, deep down he's actually a very happy and playful child.
** Kenichi Go from ''Anime/VoltesV'' has thick ones, and is from a BadassFamily. Kenichi himself is skilled at guns, motorcycling and piloting mecha. While he's HotBlooded, he's also a kindhearted boy as well and advocates for empathy towards the villains.
** The third pilot of the Nagahama Trilogy, Kazuya Ryuuzaki from ''Anime/{{Daimos}}'' also counts. He's usually a calm guy, but when he sees injustices happening, he refuses to let it slide. He's not above decking his allies, such as the racist Miwa. Cairo comments his hair is absolutely unruly and he only combs it down if he is going to meet a girl.
* Every single one of the five main Bronze Saints in ''Manga/SaintSeiya''. Seiya himself is one of the most iconic hot-blooded characters in anime and has the bushiest ones. So bushy, they poke out of his tiara-helmet!
* Every single member of ''Anime/ScienceNinjaTeamGatchaman'', Condor Joe being the most hot-blooded.
* ''Anime/RoninWarriors'' has a few characters with these. [[TheHero Ryo's]] are pretty low key, but [[TheBigGuy Syu/Kento's]] more than make up for them.

* Hikaru Ichijou from ''Anime/SuperDimensionFortressMacross'' (aka Rick Hunter from ''Anime/{{Robotech}}'') is occasionally drawn with a small pair of these, [[DependingOnTheArtist depending on which installment you're watching]]. Other times, he merely has a small, straight whisp of hair in front of his ears.
** His mentor Roy Focker sports a very strong pair of sideburns, as befits his status as an AcePilot.
* Kento Tate of ''Anime/FutureRobotDaltanious'' has these, and is an IdiotHero who doesn't think twice before opening his mouth. He's also fond of SuddenlyShouting and pissing off his mentor, Earl.
%%* Yuji Kaido from ''Anime/BlueGender''
* Black Jack from well, ''Manga/BlackJack'', has a pair of these so thick that while Tezuka sometimes forgets to properly draw his hair, body, nose, eyes, and sometimes even his facial scar, he's never forgotten the sideburns.
* Taiki Kudou from ''Anime/DigimonFusion''. Daisuke Motomiya from ''Anime/DigimonAdventure02'' looks like he has the start of some potentially epic ones.
* Van from ''Anime/GunXSword'' has sideburns that resemble his voice actor Creator/TakanoriHoshino. Personality wise he's a broken man after his bride-to-be Elena was murdered on their wedding day, and will stop at nothing to seek revenge.
* Subverted in ''Anime/MobileFighterGGundam'': Argo Gulski has the largest Hot Blooded Sideburns and eyebrows, but is the calmest cast member. Not to say that ''G Gundam'' doesn't also play this straight (See: Kyoji "[[XCalledTheyWantTheirYBack I stole my hair from the 70s]]" Kasshu, Chibodee Crocket and Master Asia). Although it's interesting that the reigning king of {{Hot Blooded}}ness himself is conspicuously ''missing'' such epic sideburns.
* Jamil Neate, the Amuro/Char/Bright CompositeCharacter from ''[[Anime/AfterWarGundamX Gundam X]]'', has a rather impressive set of sideburns himself. He's kind of a subversion, as he's more TheStoic than HotBlooded. [[spoiler: Except when he overcomes his piloting phobia and returns to the battlefield.]]
* Guy Shishioh from ''The King of Braves: Anime/GaoGaiGar'' sports a pair made of ''batteries''. By pulling on them, he temporarily gains a huge boost in speed and agility, as well as turning gold. Pulling on them and [[RuleOfCool headbanging]], what's more.
* Creator/LeijiMatsumoto is a bit fond of this look. ''Anime/Interstella5555'', for example, has these on about half of the main cast. Susumu/Derek of ''Anime/SpaceBattleshipYamato'' doesn't normally have them, but he looks like he does when he puts his helmet on.
* Kagura from ''Manga/AzumangaDaioh'', despite not being so HotBlooded, is a {{Boisterous|Bruiser}} [[{{Bokukko}} Tomboy]] that sports a pair of Nagaideburns. Likewise Fuuka Ayase from ''Manga/{{Yotsuba}}''.
%%* An omake of ''Manga/{{Kekkaishi}}'' features prototype designs for the main character, one of which sports a rather magnificent set of Hotblooded Sideburns.
* Heinkel Wolfe of ''Manga/{{Hellsing}}''. Her [[AmbiguousGender (or is it his?)]] partner Yumie's might normally be considered too long to be true Nagaideburns but their sheer fieriness, not to mention her [[strike:psychotic berserker rage]] {{Hot Blooded}}ness, are more than enough to make them count.
* Mikuni from ''Anime/DuelMasters'', is extremely aggressive in battle, especially towatds Shou. His hotblooded sideburns are so noticeable, the third season dub renamed his character "Johnny Coolburns".
* Akira Hibiki of ''Anime/{{Raideen}}'' has these, and is pasionate aboit protecting the Earth from the Demon Empire. The anime portrays him as an attractive ChickMagnet, attracting the hearts of many women (though he eventually forms one half of a BattleCouple with Mari). He is the titular robot's pilot.
* Pretty much every single {{Super Robot|Genre}} pilot from the good ol' days. In the 70s, this was mostly because it was a pretty popular hairstyle, but by the '80s it pretty much became a pre-requisite of being a badass pilot. The most iconic example has to be Ryoma of ''Manga/GetterRobo'' (Which, in a bit of irony, was ''not'' written by Creator/GoNagai as is widely believed, but by Creator/KenIshikawa. He just pitched the concept, although he was a heavy influence on the art style). ''Armageddon'' Ryoma, pictured here, sports a pair so huge that they probably warp space-time.
* In a villainous example, ''Literature/FullMetalPanic'''s Gates sports a pair of these. He seems to believe they afford him some sort of protection. [[spoiler:Just before he dies in the final episode, he fiddles with his hair and muses that maybe he had it trimmed a little ''too'' short.]]
* You would think that a story in the first love genre, specifically ''Manga/HatsukoiLimited'' would not have something like this. You'd be wrong; Gengoro Takei has these as well as the required Hot Blood.
* In ''Manga/DemonSlayerKimetsuNoYaiba'', Kyojuro Rengoku’s are so extreme in that his long side-burns actually look like flames due to how his hair is styled and colored like fire.
* Lordgenome from ''Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann'', who's so badass his sideburns point sideways. It's probably because he might have been based off of [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Gendo Ikari]], whose sideburns extend all the way to his beard like Lordgenome, and who might or not fit this trope too.
%%* Everyone in the movie and OAV designs of ''Manga/RanmaOneHalf''. While the manga art gives them only thin lines to separate the ear from the cheek, and Atsuko Nakajima's early anime designs made them slightly more noticeable, her revamped designs for later seasons, movies, and [=OAVs=] blew up their sideburns into enormous puffs of hair with intricate detail.
* ''Manga/TheRoseOfVersailles'': Lady Oscar François de Jarjayes. She's got the sideburns. While usually calm, threaten anyone she likes, and she turns as HotBlooded and dangerous as anyone else on this list.
* Takashi Kawamura from ''Manga/ThePrinceOfTennis''. He's not that HotBlooded tho, mostly a NiceGuy... [[SplitPersonality most of the time.]]
* Jouji Gouda from ''Manga/AkaneManiax'', though he's an AffectionateParody of [[Anime/MazingerZ Kouji Kabuto]] and Go Nagai characters in general.
*''Anime/SpaceCarrierBlueNoah'': Shin has a curled hot-blooded sideburn on the right side of his face. When tragedy strikes and his mentor dies, he's tasked with saving everyone on board from the same fate, and he vows to keep them alive no matter what.
*''Manga/ShamanKing'': Lee Bailong is a BruceLeeClone who fights with a nunchuck and is a skilled martial artist. He has short black hair with thin sideburns on either side.
* Subverted with Hoover Kippenburg in the ''Manga/Area88'' manga. Hoover has long sideburns that fall past his face, but he's one of the most level-headed pilots at Area 88.
* Charles Beams from ''Anime/EurekaSeven'' is one half of a mercenary couple (the other being his wife, Ray). He has messy brown hair that conists of sideburns, and an IdiotHair on top. Despite his tough guy persona, he's a nice guy and has a PapaWolf role towards Renton.
* Impulsive, tomboyish Utena from ''Anime/RevolutionaryGirlUtena'' has them; see [[http://www.animeresimleri.com/img1213.htm this image]], for example.
* Kunio Okawara in ''Manga/GundamSousei'' has a mean pair. He's not, however, [[TheStoic even closely comparable]] to Creator/YoshiyukiTomino in his hot-bloodedness, and Tomino is entirely bald.
%%* ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamAge'' gives us Second Generation!Woolf..
* ''Anime/SpaceDandy'' sports a pair of particularly impressive ones to go along with his [[DelinquentHair pompadour]].
* ''Webcomic/HetaliaAxisPowers'':
** [[NationsAsPeople Lithuania]] has this hairstyle but he's such a sweet, patient NiceGuy that he could be the ultimate aversion - [[http://37.media.tumblr.com/caa4ab5b1e7f3eb494edced0705f6645/tumblr_mud7ogknbt1s8cv8so2_1280.jpg except]] [[http://www.hetarchive.net/scanlations/files/gj4.gif for]] [[http://i538.photobucket.com/albums/ff345/DarkBlueSinger/Hetalia%20Resources/Lithuania.jpg when he's not]].
** [[ThePhilosopher Greece]], similarly. He has prominent, fiery earlocks, but he's usually laid-back to the extreme. Unless you're [[SitcomArchNemesis Turkey]].
* Ban Keiji and Itsuki Myoudouin of ''Anime/HeartcatchPrettyCure'' have these kinds of sideburns. While they are quite hot-blooded, their manliness can be questioned as one draws ''doujin'' of the Pretty Cures and the other [[{{Bifauxnen}} is actually a girl]].
* Franky from ''Manga/OnePiece'' weaponized his. His "Franky Triangle Jacker" consists of him plucking off his sideburns and throwing them like sharp boomerangs.
* Hibiki Tachibana from ''Anime/{{Symphogear}}'' has quite the pair of these, and is proudly HotBlooded enough to rival any Go Nagai Protagonist. She's also a massive tomboy to boot.
*''Franchise/{{Mazinger}}'':
** Kouji Kabuto from ''Anime/MazingerZ'' has thin, wispy, moustache-like sideburns that stick out from each side of his head. He's TheHero of the series, but can also be a rude, sexist {{Jerkass}}.
**Tetsuya Tsurugi from ''Anime/GreatMazinger'' has thick curly sideburns, and is prone to self-destructive tendecies of jealousy and aggression. It is also noted that while his predecessor Kouji was carefree and enthusiastic, Tetsuya is serious, cranky and very gloomy.
* Duke Freed and [[spoiler:his sister]] Maria Grace from ''Anime/UFORoboGrendizer'' has shoulder length crimson locks and a pair of big sideburns on each side of his face. He's a nice guy, but when he's mad, he will literally tear you from limb to limb.
* ''Anime/YuGiOh'': Gozaburo Kaiba's [[http://www.shadowlordinc.com/characters/Yu-Gi-Oh/2-GozaburoKaiba.jpg 'burns]] are only matched by his BigOlEyebrows and his mustache.
** Judai Yuki from ''Anime/YuGiOhGX'' is too young to grow sideburns, so his character design has thick locks of hair falling in front of his ears that mimic the appearance of these kind of sideburns.
* A common trait in characters designed by Kazuhiko Shimamoto. You might recognize him as the character designer for ''Anime/MobileFighterGGundam'' '''and''' [[Anime/LuckyStar Anime Tenchou]].
