Forget Twin Tails, Ponytails are the Best!

You might be wondering, which hairstyle looks better, twintails or a ponytail? Naturally, Twintails are the cutest since two is obviously better than one. Today, I realized that twintails are so overrated when I saw the light. Obviously, ponytails are the best and I will tell you why.

Obviously, Sharu is the most popular girl. 神咲 空

So you might be wondering: why are ponytails better than twintails? Consider the ponytail’s elegance. Sharu from Dog Days is a good example. Her long light-blue hair in a ponytail does not only make her look adorable, she is gorgeous. Like they say, quality is better than quantity. In this case, wearing twintails does not necessarily make one appear cuter.

On the other hand, ponytails signify strength. Have you seen any magical girl with twintails survive in Madoka Magica? Nope since Kyouko is the only one that survived the longest besides Homura. That’s right, she sports a ponytail and is the most powerful magical girl strength wise. Not only that, she is badass. Compared to her, would you think Mami would have survived longer if she had her hair in a ponytail? Absolutely! By going with that belief, Fubuki, Yamato and Kaga (and others that sport a ponytail) are the best shipgirls because they don’t wear their hair in twintails, they have it in a ponytail!

At the end of the day, you have to admit that wearing your hair in twintails just makes one look like a child. When you grow up to be a teenager or an adult, it’s obvious that you don’t want to look like a child. Because of that, ponytails are the superior choice since not only you will appear a few years younger, you won’t look like a child. This is why ponytails are the most popular hairstyle in the world, including Japan!

With that, forget the nonsense Tail Red and Twirl wants you to believe. The true power is with the ponytail. It’s so powerful that the Ultimaguils are now going after that attribute instead of twintails. But never fear, we already have highly capable pony-tailed girls that don’t even need a silly trinket to beat the crap out of them. They are already strong. Not only that, many world leaders have already recognized their strength that the United Nations declared April 1st a national holiday called “Ponytail Day” to celebrate the accomplishments of women and young girls who wear their in a ponytail.

So what do you think? Are ponytails really better than twintails? Feel free to share your thoughts;

April Fools! I don’t actually hate twintails or think that pony tails are better than them in general. I thought it’s a nice trick to pull onto people thinking that I like ponytails over twintails… In reality, I don’t have a preference since both are cute.

      To me, it really depends on the appearence, but some female characters look better with loose hair.

      I guess, but it seems that you haven’t realize that this was an April Fools joke by checking the date and I don’t really have a preference. :p

    Yea I saw that April Fool’s coming. Nice post though, and I personally like both hairstyles myself.

      Yep, I generally pull an April Fools joke every year since it’s fun to trick people… but as mentioned in the spoiler, I like both, although there are other hairstyles that I also like for female characters.

    I wouldn’t be surprised if there were female characters that sport both at the same time in anime. lmao

      I won’t be surprised at all, especially both are pretty popular… but still, having both twin tails and a pony tail is the best of both worlds as they say. :p
