Specific case of Anime Hair, that happens often in Shōnen series. One or more of the characters, usually a protagonist, have a specific hairstyle — their hair is always a mess, sticks out on all sides, and often looks kind of spiky. This hairstyle often comes with Hot Bloodedness and/or a nature somewhere between rebel, free spirit and Chaotic Good. Somebody could assume it's supposed to symbolize the hero's disrespect for existing rules. Or his dislike for hairdressers. Generally, it looks like our hero doesn't put any effort in his hairstyle and just goes as they are.
This is the kind of hairstyle that people suffering from Public Medium Ignorance think all male anime characters have. The Distaff Counterpart stereotype for female anime characters can be Girlish Pigtails.

A number of characters from Sengoku Basara, particularly Sanada Yukimura (who also has a ponytail). Date Masamune is an odd case in that, while his hair is normally rather tame,◊ it seems to magically spike out under his helmet◊. Static cling, maybe?

Digimon: At least one kid from each series, usually the protagonist, who'll be hot-headed and immature, and also wear useless goggles. In Digimon Tamers however, it's Rika that sports this kind of hair and hot-headed personality, while the others have hairstyles more plausible in reality.

Blade of the Immortal: Despite being fairly realistic and featuring normal haircuts for almost all of the main and supporting characters, Anti-Villain Magatsu Taito looks like he's carrying a porcupine on his head. We're talking foot-long spikes. It doesn't go unnoticed. At one point, somebody mentions In-Universe that hair like that will be popular in a couple hundred years.

Yugi/Yami from the original Yu-Gi-Oh! series (including the two animated series) is one of the most iconic examples, with a huge Afro-like explosion of multicolored hair crowning his head. Parodied in one of the Kids' WB! ads for the anime, which describes the hairdo as consisting of "aerodynamic triangles" useful for weathering the shockwaves that invariably accompany Duel Monster attacks and destruction.

A bit of a Non-Standard Character Design, as he looks like he comes from a Hot-Blooded, action-y shonen manga while Bakuman is a more realistic series. Of course, Bakuman has plenty of hot-bloodedness anyway, so he doesn;t look too out of place.

My Hero Academia:
Both protagonist Midoriya and deuteragonist Bakugo have typical messy shonen hair, but in different styles that reflect their personalities. Midoriya, being friendlier, has softer, more wavy-looking hair, while the more aggressive, Hot-Blooded Bakugo has more stiff, jagged Spiky Hair (that also fits with his ability to generate explosions.)
Side character-turned-Breakout Character Kirishima has spiky red hair that rivals both Midoriya's and Bakugo's hairstyles, and it fits his Hot-Blooded, manliness-obsessed personality. However, it's actually invoked since he dyes his hair red (his natural hair color is black) and uses gel to spike it up. It's part of his effort to reinvent himself as a "manlier", more courageous person than he was back in middle school.

Ouran High School Host Club: The Hitachiin twins. Seems to be intentionally invoked by the twins — flashbacks show that before they joined the Host Club they had identical bowl cuts instead of the wild, spiky haircuts they have in present day, and they're considered the "Devil" type in the host club and are supposed to be a little wild. It's more obvious in the anime. In the manga, their hair looks much more natural and isn't quite as poofed out, although it's obvious they usually style it with hair gel.

The Teen Titans version of Robin. Some episodes lampshade and parody this trope:
In "Mother Mae-Eye", Robin is shown styling his hair. In "Divide and Conquer", during an argument with Cyborg, the latter points out that he stinks of hair gel.
In "Date with Destiny", after being yelled at by Starfire, his hair turns into what seems to be its natural state - a "good boy" style.◊ Also a Mythology Gag; it looks exactly like how Robin's hair was drawn in the Golden/Silver Age comics.
On another occasion, he gets drenched, and swipes his hand over his hair in a blur, and it is promptly restored to its standard form: bing!

Rurouni Kenshin: In the author's notes, Nobuhiro Watsuki explicitly mentions that Yahiko's character design is that of the archetypical wild-haired Shonen Protagonist, and Sano's hair is so crazy he gets called "Rooster-head" In-Universe. (Interestingly enough, as the series progresses, Kenshin's hair grows progressively less wild. Art Shift that doubles as a sign of Character Development!)

Kingdom of Loathing, parodying Final Fantasy:
The Protagonist has spiky hair. As a justifying drop, his super-spiky hair gel gives this effect to the player: "Your hair is seriously spiky. It looks good, and it could put an eye out — the eye of your foe." A specific Protagonist appears as a Quest NPC: Mist Angst.
His Burly Sidekick also has a spiky mohawk sharp enough to weaponize.

Averted with other characters. Nnoitora Giruga is just as confrontational, but has neat, straight hair - closer in style to Ishida than Ichigo. In addition, when Grimmjow releases, his hair actually gets straighter (probably due to becoming longer.) Conversely, Hitsugaya's hair is a lot like this, but he's a rather serious character who usually isn't quick to fight.

YuYu Hakusho: Hiei has this to a T. He looks like an emo Super-Saiyan.

Saint Seiya: Most protagonists and villains. Seiya's helmet seems to have trouble keeping his hair's spikes from jutting out. The villains tend to combine shonen hair with long hair for maximum fabulousness.
