Anyone who has watched anime for any period of time knows there is one tried and true fact - nerdy guys will get massive nosebleeds when a hot girl shows even a tiny bit of skin. But what about the ladies? They don’t get nosebleeds as much do they? But when they do and it’s done well, a girl’s nosebleed is 7.2 times more awesome and 3.6 times as more hilarious as a guy’s nosebleed.
So today we are presenting the Random Anime Award for Best Nosebleed by a Girl.
What makes a Nosebleed effective you ask? A couple of things, but the key being an element of surprise. Nosebleed are such a old gag in anime that for it be effective nowadays and actually make you laugh, it needs to come completely out of nowhere. Two - there is an added sense of win when the girl doing the nose bleeding is hot enough that anime guys would have one because of her.
And luckly our Award Winner meets both these criteria…. From Kannagi Episode 3 - Takako Kimura.
We’re guessing Takako is a huge fan of Yaoi manga, because when she sees her Too-Pure Pure boy in the midst of a male bonding moment with his idol, she loses all control. See for yourself.
BTW - we are totally lovin Kannagi. We think it’s one of the best new shows of the Fall 2008 Anime season. If you’re not watching it, give it a shot.

Female nosebleed scenes = love, and do not happen nearly as much as they should.

Best nosebleed for me is the Bi rep in Hyakko.

This is from Karin Chibi Vampire… and it’s not because she saw a sexy boy.. it’s because she is a “blood-maker”.. watch the anime first
