▼おわりに……
ジャパニメーションにおける赤髪娘の特徴としては、気性がおとなしかろうが見た目どおりの激しかろうが、筋の通った強い意志を持っているようです。精練された性格と見た目の派手さからか、赤髪娘は比較的ヒロインになりやすいようです。よく萌えるのだと思います。

▼ And to wrap it up...

The distinctive trait of the red-haired girls in Japanese animation is that regardless of whether they are quiet or as fiery as their appearance, they always have strong will. Because of their flashy appearance and refined personalities, they can easily become the heroines of the series they appear in. And I think their moe is on fire!

What did you think about the cuteness of these blue-haired girls? There was one girl whose blue hair wasn't really hair, but wasn't she moe? Also, many of the blue-haired girls are the main heroines of the series they appear in. Maybe for some reason it's easier for the blue-haired girls to become the protagonists?

"Tsundere" is a word used to describe a very specific personality. The word describes a person who sometimes is tsun-tsun, and sometimes dere-dere, or refers to such personality. When someone is being tsun-tsun, they are acting cold and hurtful towards someone, and when someone is being deredere, they are being cute with someone like their lover. At first glance these polar opposites can combine to create a character type that has many fans and was named by them "tsundere".

▼ Got it! In other words, they are the best!
