Re: The return of the forelock!
heck I guess it's a big thing in japanese culture. If I ever become extremely emaciated, I'm going to trim my hair really short and have a forelock.
It's just time to be
sammy to the rasoodock.
And close up the business
of heart-related matters.

Akio, you have nice turns of phrase, but your points aren't clear and you have no textual support. I can't give this a passing grade.

LAGUNA'S HAIR IS SO AMAZINGLY HOT.

It used to be longer, but I fried it by bleaching it too much and I've just cut it off enough that the fried parts are gone. Right now, it is black with red streaks.

Re: The return of the forelock!
Heh, don't know if anyone is interested, but I bought this doujinshi in Japan in January and apparently that forelock really IS mutant.
...and yes, if anyone who can read Japanese cares to share it with us, please DO tell us what that little mutant is up to while Ruka safely slumbers...
Although not to be left out of the Crazy Hair Stakes Super Family Fun Game, Juri's hair apparently doubles as a patisserie. Gotta love that French influence on this show, eh?

Please scan the rest of that doujinshi. I'm begging you.
Edit: By the way, I think that the text next to the forelock is Juri saying something along the lines of, "Ehhh?! It is a mutant forelock after all!" And the other text is probably the sound affect for blowing out a puff of cigarette smoke.

Seriously that's just incredible in ways doujinshi is almost never ever incredible even when girls grow Chu-cocks.

That's some scary, scary yaoi. I mean, they say the 'bear' type is hairy, but made entirely of hair? Wow.

OH MY GOD. xDDDDDD Well, Masaru's hair IS mutant, if he takes those yellow ringy-things off of his shoulders, it grows back in. ... MASARUKA FREAKS ME OUT.
That doujinshi, however, wins this thread.

Whoa, that mutant forelock is quite creepy... o.o
Juri with edible hair is just priceless... I wouldn't be surprised if other people started biting her randomly.

I'd randomly bite her. Except it wouldn't be so random and I wouldn't be aiming to chew on her hair.
Life is short: break the rules, forgive quickly, kiss slowly, love truly, laugh uncontrollably, and never regret anything that made you smile.

From another picture I have from this particular doujinshi, I'd be inclined to think at least Shiori does. [coughs]
