Conjecture.
Let denote the closed set of female characters in a series , defined only if there is at least one such that has blue hair.
We postulate that there is a strong positive correlation between:
- : is best girl.
- : has blue hair.
Intuitively, we claim that strongly implies , and vice versa: “most best girls have blue hair, and blue hair girls are often best girl”.
Definitions
- We use series to collectively refer to any film, animation, anime, manga, webcomic or similar visual media.
- states that in the partial order of favouritism on , is the maximal element.
- includes any shade of blue, but overwhelmingly media use darker shades of blue for hair.
Empirical Evidence
Proofs
We identify the following series to satisfy the conjecture:
Oshi no Ko: Akane Kurokawa, closely tailed by Ruby Hoshino.
Domestic Girlfriend: Rui Tachibana clears.
Close As Neighbours: May and it’s not even close.
Arcane: Caitlyn and Vi would share, but young Caitlyn is way cuter than Vi and gives her the victory.
Shikimori-san’s Not Just A Cutie: Kamiya is on equal footing with Shikimori.
(In descending order of “how strongly I feel she is best girl”)
Counterexamples
However, the following series violate the conjecture:
- Yu-Gi-Oh: ARC-V: Sora is disgusting, and there are indeed no other blue-haired girls 💔
- Kanojo, Okarishimasu: Ruka, no thanks lmao
