Oh wow this is the best meme in a while. I can't wait to see them do one on my favorite characters. Time to check pivix.
Pony Tail! Twin Tail! Short! Long! Forehead exposure!
I LOVE IT ALL!!!!!
Wow! We agreed on something!!
Their I go...
Oh Raidou and your mutton chops
*swoons*
side tails tl;dr it seems so medieval and it makes me remember those big breast of the epoche... side tails its the winner.
Seconded by twin tails and pony tails.
My attempt featuring Suigintou from Rozen Maiden:
http://i29.tinypic.com/2af08ht.png
Gah, the last one is just strange... I don't like that kind of hairstyle anyways. And yes, I sort of stole the side tail one from the first pic.
some beauty some indeed (very ugly) (=_=)
I was hoping to see some of the Touhou ones. Specifically Tima's work for Hong and Sakuya.
the second one down for the guys is FUCKING LOL
Ah, I love pixiv memes. This is a great one - I've been meaning to do it myself for quite a while.
Also: L-lol. Is #10 Kanon from Umineko no Naku Koro Ni? That makes (at least?) two male entries hiding out in the female section of the post.
Love Short Hair Very Much...
ponytail my woman must be prepared at all times for battle
awesome pixiv meme
*right click saves template*
Does Dekodashi have to be held up by something, or can it be any style of exposed forehead?
Like Nakama Yukie from Gokusen, Kitsu Chiri from Zetsubou or Namie Amuro?
Anyway Thanks for introducing us to this great Meme.
An example:
http://www.bookmice.net/darkchilde/drama/gokusen/gokusen.jpg
I'm fairly certain that any kind of forehead exposure is valid use of the term - I've seen both held up/back and more natural sorts used for meme responses, for example. (Held back/up seems to be more prevalent in that case, but..that's neither here nor there.)
While it isn't posted here, my favorite is the one with Kisara from Yu-Gi-Oh! with one of the panels featuring a pic of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon...
ooo ill try it out, any request?
Hinagiku Katsura from Hayate no Gotoku. <:
I don't know why, but I want to see Kasugano Sakura with long hair and in a kimono.
Nagi from Kannagi is a good candidate for this template.
They seriously failed by not having some kind of Ritsu joke on Mugi's. Also lol wut @ Sakamoto forehead.
I laughed pretty hard at the Raidou one, wasn't expecting it to be done like that.
Let me start so others can pick up
1 - Vocaloid (Hatsune Miku)
2 - Ranma?
3 - K-On (Tsumugi)
4 - Genshiken (Ogiue) - or is it just the last hairstyle?
5 -
6 -
7 -
8 - Strike Witches (Mio Sakamoto)
...
I see some of them are not actual characters, but character styles.. still.
It's Japan (Hetalia), not Genshiken..
And the guy with the sideburns is Raidou from Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner.
Isn't Japan a trap?
Kiku/Japan is only a trap in in some of the author's sketches, i don't recall him being a trap in canon. the only canon trap character is Feliks/Poland.
on that note i wish to molest Kiku's small ponytail
Bah! Disregard that, I suck cocks.
I'm an idiot, very sleep depribed, or have been looking at too many actual reverse trap images all night so that they're on my mind. Japan isn't a reverse trap.
A reverse trap.
Yeah, it is Ranma. In the ponytail version he wears his normal Chinese dress, in the twintail version he poses as Ranko, in the sidetail version he wears the uniform of his and Akane's school, and in the long version he wears Shampoo's dress.
Actually, in the twintail version she poses as Yoiko (Ryouga's fictional sister), hence the darker hair.
I was so excited when I saw Ranma. It was first ever manga, so I have this creepy encyclopedic knowledge of it.
Tah-dah! Visual refernce for anyone interested:
http://finranma.jouluserver.com/yoikohibiki.gif
4- Hetalia - Axis Powers (Japan)
6- Ichigo Mashimaro/Strawberry Marshmallow (Miu)
7- Macross Frontier (Sheryl)
Don't know 5.
2d forehead exposure is so much better than 3d forehead exposure
sexy baby :3

ewwwww :s
Where are the traps? Something can't truly be for the ladies without some traps!
Anyway, some of them were really lovely. The first (header image) miku one, and I think Ranma? I also like the one before the 'for the ladies' one.
Out of curiosity, what's the blank form's illustration number? I'd like to add it to my account's bookmarks. I'd be much obliged if I could have the numbers for the three I mentioned, but I'll not press my luck!
Look more closely for your trap.
Look on Pixiv, there are only 20 pages of them.
It wasn't in the ladies part is what I was pointing out. I'll consider my joke there a failure then.
I think I had it mixed up with the "Different styles meme" which has been around a while then, which looks an awful lot alike this one here to one such as myself who knows very few moon runes. I'll search immediately. Thanks!
Tsumugi wins again.
Lol Raidou!!!
I had images off temporarily... when I saw the title I thought of a "hairstyle" somewhere else. I knew I was going to be disappointed. Another enemy would be mosaics.
Great stuff. Here's my amusing (If rushed) attempt.

Never change, baby.
Heh?
Amusement, ellipses, stunned silence, and objections. Yeah, I'm prepared to call this a victory.
what....!!??
Goddamnit why did I lol
That doesn't even make sense.
LOL
B-but Japan is a boy D: (The one after Mugi.)
hahahaa i was thinking 'why was japan in here' too >_< but he still beats everyone HE IS THE CREATOR OF MOE!!!
Yes, and...?
Japan is a boy in the girl section.
crossdressing shota
lol...but isn't that the point?
We need a gallery for this.
Twin tail wins!
LOL
the bald Miku is funny
Bald is da WIN... not. xD
THAT XD
My Eyes!!
Damn I can't decide between ponytails and twin tails.
Twin tails is better.
And Ponytail =3
+1!
+1
Pony-tail is unisex. Twin-tail is hilarious on men... Side-tail? Lain looks awesome with it. Short hair is nothing at all. Extremely long hair rulez. Forhead exposure is some kind of men-only hairstyle.
In my honest opinion, of course.
-2
+1
+2
I like my women with hair on there head only. But if I was to be specific I don't like twin tail as much. Looks funny on a real women.
>Forhead exposure is some kind of men-only hairstyle.
unless it is done using a hairband
+9002
Twintails is the best. They're handle bars for while doing doggie-style!

It's ponytail for me.
Me too, but only if hair is in the front too. I don't like the way some people do it with all hair pulled back. Miku way is how I like it.
Regular Pony Tail is all i need... Kyon says, Pnytail turns me on.
Ponytail is a crime. Ponytail loli = JAILBAIT!! XD
Dude, you ownd!!
Side Ponytail for me. Kan'U Unchou (Koihime Musou) is so fucking HAWT!!
