"Yama Uba"? MatPat had me convinced that Jynx's original design was based on Blackface.

There are real dark skinned blondes, Melanasians. And Woolie is factually wrong as this trope in not anime exclusive.

Deleted the following Natter that violated Example Indentation in Trope Lists from the Hellsing example in Manga and Anime.
As per Averted Trope:
Aversions should ALMOST NEVER be listed on trope pages. 99.9% of the time they are the exact same thing as just not using the trope. Generally, only nigh Omnipresent Tropes, Necessary Weasel tropes or aversion-only tropes should have aversions listed as examples.
- Averted in the manga, where Anderson has grey/silver hair.

Yup, just as black hair can come under "brunette".
That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.
Okay, what about "strawberry blond"? For that matter, what would count as "strawberry blond" in animated characters? Orange-colored hair?
Fiat iustitia, et pereat mundus.
Between Dark Skinned Redhead and Dark Skinned Blond, strawberry blond is definitely covered and counts under one of them, being an unusual thing and all, but blow me if I know where it goes!
That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.
Maybe it's counts as both "red" and "blond"? That is basically the real-life explanation for the hair color, anyway: The two pigments responsible for blond hair and red hair are both present in strawberry blonde hair.
On another note, from what I've seen of real-life strawberry blonde hair, it looks like it does effectively equate with "orange". Don't know how the color translates into animated and drawn media, however. Take Lucia and Kaito (the two embracing in the front)
◊ from Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch, for example; are they both "orange"/strawberry-blonde, or does that only apply to Kaito while Lucia is just "dirty blond"?
I'm not sure if this is entirely accurate, but I'm pretty sure most people spell the name of the lightest hair color "blonde" instead of "blond". That being said, I vote we make it Dark Skinned Blonde. Anyone agree?

"Blonde" refers to women; "blond" refers to men (the word is originally French, I believe, along with the word brunette, hence the gendered adjectives. Blond is the only one that regularly keeps the genders in English, however.)
