Roughly, its Motoko Kusanagi’s more OG style original hair cut, especially in SAC and the manga.
(As time goes on, artists seem to be leaning more toward the Major’s hair being a kind of angled variant of a hime cut / bob, they keep cleaning it up and making it less messy, more… geometrically precise, minimized)
A wolf cut is a messy, voluminous, maybe teased hairstyle that’s kind of like a mullet, but kind of not, features two kind of… not quite bangs, but locks of hair on each side of the face, framing it, originated from roughly above the ears.
The Major’s version does not have the longer mane of hair in the back, which other wolf cuts, like Yamcha’s, do have.
Yamcha’s whole thing is ‘Wolf’.
Yamcha’s hair in the back is… kind of like a giant ponytail, but its not actually tied or bound, to achieve that.
Some of Ramona Flower’s hairstyles in the comic? canadian manga?.. are basically wolf cuts or variations of them, similar to Motoko’s, and the movie depictions of her hair, at least some of them, are basically actually physically possible versions of OG Motoko’s version of a wolf cut.
There’s also a few mods for Cyberpunk 77, that do a good job of showing different wolf cuts in a more realistic way:
what i got is that inu yasha is actually a half dog yokai, since there was a wolf yokai who made fun of him for being a dog
also i think “demon” is a type of yokai, just like other monster types (like dragons and stuff). though i dont know if he is a type of demon yokai or not
You’re probably right… its been a very long time since I’ve gone through all of Inu Yasha.
But what I was getting at with yokai is that… demons and yokai don’t quite operate by the same kind of supernatural rules as the general western conception of a demon.
A yokai can be malevolent, or helpful, or a trickster, whereas demons are essentially never helpful.
A yokai can assume its own form, or, inhabit another form, like a person or animal and morph it into another, kind of possess it.
But they can also posses objects… which is more like a … poltergeist.
What’s a wolfcut? 🤔

I 100% understand the appeal, the new GITS series coming out in July looks to have nailed it.
Holy crap, that’s the first I’m hearing of this!
Yes, that’s very much a … return to the 90s, kind of art style, dang!
Oh man.
Am excite!
Uh um right, yes, they very returned to the old school hair style, yes.
oh seems like inu yasha’s hair is a wolfcut too
Ah yep, that’s another one!
Though he… truly has a just luricrous total amount of hair.
Also… ‘Inu’, while commonly translated as ‘dog’… kinda more broadly means ‘canine’.
So… Inu Yasha is semi-literally ‘Wolf Demon’, but more accurately he’s half yokai, which is… kinda like a demon, bit kinda not… blargh lol.
