Why does Kishi give most character Naruto haircuts?

[slayerdanger]

Naruto, Obito, Ashura, Hagoromo, Yamato, young Tobirama all have very similar hair to Naruto. I, for one, am tired of it. We need some manly style in Naruto characters like this:

You know the haircut(more like hairshave) you posted is not manly ,its that character who is manly .

And yeah agree we need more of that .(killer bee and A are ok though)

 

[BlazeRelease]

Manly is a subjective term. He is from a different culture, besides its anime, known for dramatic hairstyles .

Would still be nice though.

Well, all characters cant be as badd ass as Zahir.

main characters in anime tend to have wild hair styles or hair colors to make the character stand out. Naruto having blonde hair and blue eyes, Sakura being the only character in the series with pink hair, etc.

For me, I think the story needs a deranged character. A unique design, and shaggy hair or hairstyle. I mean come on, everyone has spiky hair and that's it. It's a little repetitive.

That would be better than what Kishi does now, every character looks like they just got out of the hair salon. A shaggy hairstyle would be good too

But isn't anime hair supposed to defy all logic and laws of physics? I don't think any amount of gel can accomplish the spiky hair styles we see in this show. As for unique, they're all accessorized differently so.it brings some variation to the spiky look.

Duh? Got a problem with that?

A deranged character would really spice up the manga a bit.
@Bold I suppose so, but if all anime is like that, wouldn't you want yours to be different? Stand out a little more from others?

@Italics True, but I guess I'm just looking a little too far into it design-wise. They're ninja, so shouldn't the majority wear masks to conceal their identity from enemies like Obito did?

b/c kishi is a fashionable mother****er

Yeah, but some normal looking people are present in a lot of other animes. If you've seen Steins Gate, the main character and his smart friend have more normal actually possible hair. What bothers me about Naruto character is they all look like they got out of the shower/barber shop/hair salon. The only Naruto males that I've seen with realistic hair is Onoki and the First Mizukage. I'm obviously forgetting some, but those were just off the top of my head. Shisui also has curly hair I think, so he's alright too.

Yeah, I have a problem with it, I like characters having different hairstyles.

 

[Naruto D Luffy]

Because he's the main character...

Yeah, you've got a point there. Adding a bit of originality to male the character more flashy or simply just stand out is what draws people to them.

To your @italics-- they may be ninja and they should be wearing masks or something but what's the point if they wear flashy orange and red (Naruto and Sakura). I'd say they've already defeated the point of concealing their identity

What if Madara was bald?

That's true, too... I think Sai is another one and possibly Sasori. It probably has something to do with it being a shonen manga also. I think it's some sort of standard for these kinds to do something with hair like that. Moreover, I think it's just simpler for Kishi to not get into detail with that. He keeps appearances simple probably due to how overwhelming it'd get to draw something more detailed constantly
