The male form of [[Hello, Nurse!]] and polar opposite of the [[Casanova Wannabe]]. A male character who is so good-looking and unintentionally charming that he becomes a babe ''and'' stud magnet, (the studs being either bisexual, or straight). Some of the other characters may question his sexuality and he'll keep them guessing, which results in [[Ho Yay]]... unless, of course, he is the [[Boys Love|love interest]].
Line 23 ⟶ 25:
 
{{examples}}
== Anime &and Manga ==
* Akira from ''[[Ai Ore Love Me]]''. Many of the boys at his school are infatuated at him because of his cute, feminine appearance.
* ''[[Gate 7]]'': Tokugawa Iemitsu.
Line 36 ⟶ 38:
'''Guy''': (Leers even more):''I don't mind.''
'''GS''' (Remains placid):''Fool.'' }}
* ''[[ZeroThe noFamiliar Tsukaimaof Zero]]'': Saito. Even though he and Louise are in love with each other, that doesn't stop most of the women in the show from expressing interest in Saito at one time or another, most notably Siesta and Kirche. In addition to that, after his victory over Guiche, Saito becomes popular with the commoners and some nobles in the school, both male and female. Marto, the school's head cook is especially in awe of Saito for his victory and gives him free food because of it. He also affectionately calls him "Our Sword", embraces and even attempts to kiss him on multiple occasions. Later, in the last episode of season 2, Saito gives a sleeping Louise to Julio, who promises to watch her while Saito's out doing battle. Saito tells him he's fighting for Louise's sake because he loves her, and Julio is so touched by this that he says to him with much adoration: "I wish to tell you I love you too." He even tells Saito during a fight with him that he wants to kiss him as well as Louise. Oh, and then there's Scarron, a [[Macho Camp]] inn manager, who has also taken a liking to Saito, saying that he is "just his type", attempts to plant a [[Forceful Kiss]] on him, and [[The Glomp|glomps]] him while releasing plenty of heart marks.
* ''[[Gankutsuou]]'': The Count. Albert clearly has a huge crush on him. And then there's Albert himself. His best friend Franz is secretly and desperately in love with him. And Peppo, a male crossdresser seems to have a strong affection for Albert and enjoys teasing him whenever he can. He later falls deeply in love with Albert. He also ends up engaged to Eugenie who ends up falling in love with him too.
* There's the attraction that Hanagata has for Otaru in ''[[Saber Marionette J]]'' though it's not shared. As well as Otaru having a [[Unwanted Harem]] of about three marionettes all who are head over heels in love with him.
Line 48 ⟶ 50:
* In ''[[Haunted Junction]]'', Akamanto Kamen/Red Mantle is a ''very'' attractive male ghost who charms all the girls of Saitou High on mere sight, except for School Council girl Mutsuki ([[Shotacon|she has a thing for younger males instead]]). When he takes off his mask to save a bunch of [[Brainwashed and Crazy]] boys from a curse cast by his rival {{spoiler|and long-lost younger sister}}, the ghostly [[Femme Fatale]] Blue Spot Girl, even guys (included Haruto and Kazumi from the Saitou HS council) fall in love with him. [[Hilarity Ensues]].
* Griffith of the ''[[Berserk]]'' manga/anime. His subordinates consider him to be very handsome and [[Subordinate Excuse|are quite taken with him]]. Many men even comment on how they feel strange things after hearing Griffith's voice following his rebirth.
** Guts as well. He's a major [[Chick Magnet]] and Griffith himself had a [[:Category:Yandere|Yandere]] obsession toward Guts before the Eclipse.
* From ''[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure]]'', Dio Brando. His insane level of charisma gets a lot of people to serve him, female and male alike. Joseph even mentions that this makes him very dangerous, as his minions are extremely loyal.
* ''[[Monster (manga)|Monster]]''--
Line 83 ⟶ 85:
** Kanda too. He's had guys hit on him before and Lavi is quite affectionate towards him, insists on calling him by his first name, and acts like a spurned lover whenever Kanda yells at him.
** And Tyki. Cyril clearly likes the ladies but he is also obsessed with Tyki and even flirts with him a couple of times. He once said that Tyki's beauty arouses him, with Tyki replying "You're giving me goosebumps."
* Kimihiro Watanuki from ''[[xxxHolic×××HOLiC]]''. The [[Love Triangle]] he thought he was in? Well... he ''is'' interested in Himawari Kunogi and she kinda likes him back, but it turns out his "love rival" Shizuka Doumeki isn't interested in Himawari like he believed, but in ''[[Ho Yay|Watanuki]]'' [[Ho Yay|himself]]. [[Double Subversion|LOL]] [[CLAMP]].
** Also the shy little spirit, a [[Interspecies Romance|fox dragon thing]] {{spoiler|and maybe Yuuko.}}
** Oh, and you know Zashiki Warashi, that cute girl that's [[Shrinking Violet|completely shy]] and has a huge crush on Watanuki? In all likelihood, "she" is a "he" or an "it", according to a CLAMP interview where they say that her being female is [[Dropped a Bridget On Him|not necessarily the case]]. Coupled with the fact that Zashiki Warashi spirits are normally described as being young boys and rarely being girls, along with how Ame-warashi usually says "this child" when referring to Zashiki Warashi instead of actually using a gender...
Line 90 ⟶ 92:
** And Tetsunosuke himself qualifies as Suzu has a considerable amount of [[Foe Yay]] towards him, Heisuke finds him attractive and has flirted with him, Susumu blushed around him and is hinted to really like him, and he has a love interest in Saya.
** And Suzu too. The old merchant Yamatoya made him his sex slave and his favorite "pet".
* In ''[[Mirai Nikki]]'' the male lead, and cute little boy Yukiteru is constantly pursued by the ''absolutely'' [[:Category:Yandere|psychotic]] Yuno. Apparently he has also elicited similar feelings of the [[Ho Yay]] variety in Akise Aru. In the spin off, Akise goes as far to say that he's not gay, just [[If It's You It's Okay|Yukki-sexual]].
* [[Handsome Lech]] Hachibei Maeda in ''[[Ai Kora]]'', has a few girls in his harem that are either in love with him or grow to love him later on. Also, Haiji fell in love with him because Maeda has a "[[Jerk with a Heart of Gold|pure heart]]".
* ''[[Outlaw Star]]'' has Gene who initially has a thing going with his partner Hilda, gains the affections of the lovely Melfina, has [[Ship Tease]] moments Suzuka, as well as Fred Luo having a yaoi crush on him.
Line 97 ⟶ 99:
* An episode of the second ''[[Sayonara, Zetsubou-sensei]]'' anime series shows even the boys in Nozomu Itoshiki's class would jump at the chance of a romantic relationship with him. Much to his despair, of course.
* ''[[Fushigi Yuugi]]''--
** Tamahome. Canonically, Nakago has a one-sided obsession with him and kissed him, Yui is in love with him to a [[:Category:Yandere|Yandere]]-like degree, and he and Miaka are very much in love with each other. Also, Nuriko loved to tease him and once kissed him. Not to mention Vitriolic Best Friend with [[Ho Yay]] hints to Tasuki.
** Nakago himself, as well. He's wanted by both [[The Dragon]] (a [[Depraved Homosexual]] [[Master of Illusion]]) AND [[The Dark Chick]] ([[Shock and Awe]] [[Dark Action Girl]]) of his group, ''and'' Miaka [[Squee|went all googly-eyed]] when she went to Kutou to check on Yui, meet up with him and saw his face for the first time (he was wearing a helmet that hid a good part of his face at the beginning), before she knew he was the enemy.
** Oh, *please*. Hotohori! He's got Nuriko *and* {{spoiler|Lady Houki}} crazy for him, and not to mention one of the Mt. Reikaku bandits was still infatuated with Hotohori after [[Dropped a Bridget On Him|the Bridget dropping]] that took in the arc.
Line 112 ⟶ 114:
* ''[[Nodame Cantabile]]'': Chiaki. [[Flamboyant Gay|Okuyama]] certainly wants him. Unfortunately for Okuyama, so does [[Dogged Nice Guy|Nodame]].
* ''[[Code Geass]]''-
** Lelouch Lamperouge. Milly, Shirley, Kallen and Kaguya are head-over-heels in love with him. (As well as 108 other girls. And maybe C.C). And let's not even get into where Nunnally fits here...Then there's the love and [[:Category:Yandere|psychotic devotion]] that Rolo has for him and very possibly [[Foe Yay|Suzaku]]...
*** In regards to Rolo his voice actor has absolutely no doubt that Rolo is in love with Lelouch, as he explicitly mentions in more than one of his interviews about the character.
*** In one picture drama Suzaku tells a cross-dressing Lelouch that he "looks beautiful", eats a piece of rice off of his face in one audio drama and ends up kissing him in another audio drama. And in the Turn 9.34 picture drama when C.C., Kallen, and Lelouch dress up as belly dancers to sneak into the Chinese Federation. C.C. and Kallen introduce Lelouch as their "beautiful older sister" and the men ogle him. Of course, Lelouch has a masculine voice, so when he speaks, they realize that he's a guy. However, one of the men says he doesn't mind because he thinks Lelouch is "beautiful".
Line 146 ⟶ 148:
* Kazuto ("Towa") Sakuma from ''[[Sensual Phrase]]''. His androgynous good looks make not only women but also men swoon over him. He is... not amused.
* [[Dude Looks Like a Lady|Miller]] from ''[[Kaguyahime]]'' even when they don't mistake him for a girl.
* Souma Saiki from ''[[Sakura Gari]]''. He [[Really Gets Around|sleeps around a lot]] with [[Depraved Bisexual|both men and women]], and [[So Beautiful It's a Curse|due to his gorgeous looks]], its mentioned that they all become [[:Category:Yandere|extremely possessive]] of him when he tries to get them to leave him alone. Some of them even try to [[Murder the Hypotenuse]] in the hopes of having Souma for themselves. And yes, he got this kind of attention during his childhood as well.
** You can't forget Masataka who has [[Depraved Bisexual|Souma]] himself lusting after him.
* Thor from ''[[Jyu-Oh-Sei]]''.
Line 161 ⟶ 163:
* Memori from ''[[Game X Rush]]''. Played for comedy, when the judo team ("Can I call you 'Big Brother'?!"), the G-ing bodyguards, and the male kids at the elementary school become big fans of Memori. And then there's the mutual Ho Yay between him and Yuuki...
* In ''[[Kaze to Ki no Uta]]'' it seems like almost every male character has or would be willing to have sex with Gilbert. Gilbert also becomes attracted to Serge who is willing to [[If It's You It's Okay|make an exception for him]].
* Naruse Fuuta of ''[[Kawaii Akuma]]''. He's [[Dude Looks Like a Lady|so pretty and cute]] that everyone in his school, guys and girls alike, frequently comment on his beauty, fawn over him, wait on him hand and foot, act incredibly protective of him, and get jealous if he spends too much time with his boyfriend, Akiyoshi. Akiyoshi himself also counts as Naruse is [[:Category:Yandere|obsessively and unhealthily in love]] with him, and he also had a fellow classmate try to jump him while his back was turned and a straight guy mentioned he wouldn't mind kissing Akiyoshi since he's so cute without his glasses.
* [[Dude Looks Like a Lady|Ayase]] of ''[[Okane ga Nai]]'' is an '''extreme''' case where 95% of the straight guys he meets will either fall in love with him or simply want to have sex with him. This was lampshaded in an omake at the end of Chapter 39, where the auto mechanic thinks about how both President Kanou and his employee Kuba seem to be in love with Ayase but claim they're not gay. He then looks at his employees who are all drooling over Ayase, and concludes that Ayase-fever must be contagious. ** Ironically, the only men who aren't interested in Ayase at all are the gay guys. Who are interested in Kanou.
* Masashi of ''[[Oniichan to Issho]]''. Mizusawa falls for a crossdressing Masashi and calls him "Boss Lady". This does not desist even when Masashi is dressed in masculine clothing. In general, most men who do not realize Masashi's true gender are attracted to him. Additionally, from Tsuyoshi's point of view, this trope also applies to Rin, his [[Unlucky Childhood Friend]].
Line 174 ⟶ 176:
** Let's see, you've got like every background character in episode 1, Ryuk follows him around everywhere, Raye Penber The Stalker, L and his weird obsession and surveillance cameras, Misa showing up on his door step, Takada directly asking him out, Matsuda and Mikami the Fanboys, and Near with his creepy smiles and he keeps calling and hanging up... [[A Worldwide Punomenon|Kira is a wanted man.]]
* ''[[Gokusen]]''--
** In the manga, an old Yakuza [https://web.archive.org/web/20101010002631/http://www.mangafox.com/manga/gokusen/v04/c006/11.html describing Kumiko's grandfather Ryuuichiro in his youth] says that "even a guy could fall in love with him."

* Kyo Sogoru of ''[[Zegapain]]''. He has a [[Invisible to Gaydar]] character named Lu Sheng who loves him and possibly also Tomigai since he was willing to give his [[Sacred First Kiss]] to Kyo while filming a love scene for a movie Ryoko was making.
Line 181 ⟶ 183:
* ''[[Kaichou wa Maid-sama]]!'': Usui in the anime adaptation. Can't blame them. Even straight guys in [[Real Life]] want to kiss him!
** The manga has some suggestions towards this as well, with Hinata walking up to a wet, half-naked Usui, [[Eating the Eye Candy|sizing him up]], and [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/kaichou_wa_maid_sama/v06/c027/18.html cheerfully concluding that he probably would be completely hot for Usui if he was actually a girl.]
** Chapter 63 of the manga takes [[Up to Eleven]] by having the entire male high school population [https://web.archive.org/web/20110928023540/http://www.mangafox.com/manga/kaichou_wa_maid_sama/v12/c063/18.html confess to him on valentine's day.]

* ''[[Shukufuku no Campanella]]'': Leicester. Even Golem blushes around him.
Line 230 ⟶ 232:
* ''[[Karakurizoushi Ayatsuri Sakon]]'': Sakon. He melts the girls around him and he seems to be a little bit aware of this fact but he is too shy to do something about. His friend Fujita says that "Although I'm a guy, I think he is hot stuff".
* ''[[Barajou no Kiss]]'': Tenjou is shown having a horde of adoring fans of both genders. His [[Psycho Supporter|vice president]] is rather, ah, [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/barajou_no_kiss/v01/c005/30.html devoted].
* ''[[Blood Plus+]]'': In the novels Kai muses to himself that even guys like him wouldn't be able to deny how attractive Haji is.
* ''[[Clover]]'': Kazuhiko. Barus is especially fond of him, and likes to call him his "prince". And, uh, [[A Love to Dismember|snuggle with his severed hand at night]].
* Kuranosuke from ''[[Kuragehime]]''.
Line 301 ⟶ 303:
* Ko Kijin in ''[[Saiunkoku Monogatari]]'' is so beautiful that when he took the examination to qualify for government office, his looks distracted the other candidates so much that only he and two other people - both friends of his who were already accustomed to his beauty - were able to pass the exams, and thirty officials had to be fired for forgetting to ring the bell to signal the end of the exam period. He eventually took to wearing a mask constantly in order to hide his face, and even the threat of having him take off his mask during court is enough to cause chaos; when he actually takes it off, it entrances anyone who looks at him and sends several men into hysterics.
* Mizutama from ''Pump Up'' has a pretty big male following due to his feminine looks.
* Inugami of ''[[Wolf Guy Wolfen Crest]]'' is lusted after by [[Crazy Jealous Guy|Haguro]] and [[:Category:Yandere|Ryuuko]] after they learn of his werewolf form. Local [[Hot Teacher]] Aoshika develops a crush on him as well.

* Ryu of ''Tantei Gakuren Q''. Older women, young girls and little girls blush at the sight of him as well as him having Ho Yay with Kyuu and the Foe Yay with Anubis.
* High School DXD-Occult Research Club: Issei. To defeat him, that is. Vali, Sairaorg, Cao Cao and Kiba wants to fight are the prime targets. Needless to say, he's not amused.

* ''CrimsonSpell[[Crimson Spell]]'': Havi, Ruruka, and Rimris all have confirmed or near confirmed feelings of love towards Vald, Marse has a soft spot towards Vald because he reminds him of his prince who died, and Hellyne has been shown to get flustered around Vald whenever he compliments him or gets really close to him.
* Balder Hringhorni of ''[[Kamigami No Asobi]]''. The crowd of students perpetually dogging him includes quite a few dudes.
* Kaneki of ''[[Tokyo Ghoul]]'' has both Tsukiyama and Romo acting yandere[[Yandere]] towards him though Tsukiyama is a guy, Rize finding him attractive enough to want to date and hunt him, Nico commenting on how good looking he finds him and flirting with him, and Touka acting quite tsundere towards him with both hinting at a mutual attraction. Mutsuki also clearly adores Kaneki and acts awkward around Touka which some theorize to be jealousy.
** Nico has also commented on how attractive he finds Tatara and Ayato.
** Yamori's not much to look at but he's badass and unstable enough to have attracted Naki and Nico.

* Yamada-kun And The Seven Witches: Yamada himself. He has attracted many girl throughout the series. He has also attracted the male Miyamura and other guys are not afraid to get physical with him as well.
* A Cruel God Reigns: Ian, although it is often played for laughs. This also applies to Jeremy several times.

* ''[[The Ping Pong Club]]'': Yusuke to the point that he's considered beautiful when dressed as a women.
* Even the most rude of Huey Laforet's detractors in ''[[Baccano!]]'' will openly admit he's pretty. One of Victor's many complaints about Huey is that, along with being a crazy and dangerous genius who's way into doing things For Science!, he's also "too goddamn handsome for [his] own good."
* Ayumu Mikoshiba from ''[[Otasuke Miko Miko-chan]]'' because of his effeminate looks.
* Sitri in ''[[Makai Ouji]]'', has a fan club at his all boys school of over 200 members. Also, Baalberith calls Sytry his "Beautiful doll" and is implied to have kissed him.
** There's also Dantalion and Solomon/William. Dantalion and Solomon definitely had a thing together and it seems Dantalion is now transferring his affections to William.
** Then there's Solomon having Ship Tease with all of the pillars...Kevin being quite fond of William, Michael's lack of personal space toward Uriel/Kevin and jealousy of William while telling him that he should only have eyes for him, Metatron's crush on Michael, as well as the ending theme basically being comprised of Dantalion, Sytry, and Camio declaring their unrequited love for William... or maybe Solomon, or both.

== Literature ==
Line 644 ⟶ 645:
* Subverted in ''[[Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World|Tales of Symphonia: Knight of Ratatosk]]''. Decus certainly ''thinks'' that his (putrid) cologne has this effect.
* In ''[[The Sims]] 2'' expansion "FreeTime", one of the rewards for a life well lived is a magic lamp containing a genie. If the Sim chooses "Give Me Beauty" as one of threw wishes, s/he is granted automatic maximum chemistry with any Sim of his/her preferred gender, and all the Sim needs to do to activate this trope is to "Flirt... Check Sim Out" at least one Sim from each gender. A bug in the code then causes every NPC and their sister to ring the Sim's doorbell at all hours of the night, making a good night's sleep all but impossible but guaranteeing a gigantic stable of friends and/or lovers. [[Be Careful What You Wish For]].

Line 664 ⟶ 665:
* Teddie's human form from ''Persona 4''. He makes extensive use of the [[Bishie Sparkle]] and uses it to manipulate women that he comes across.

One male commentator even exclaimed "I'd hit it" even after finding out that Teddie was actually a guy.
** Tatsuya from ''[[Persona 2]]'' is explicitly shown to be a chick magnet. Almost all the female cast wants him, major or minor characters. Heck, even some of the guys want him.

* In ''[[Time Squad]]'', [[The Ace|J.T. Laser and the Lance Nine Trillion]] have this effect on Buck Tuddrussel and the Larry Three Thousand, respectively. The latter is already [[Camp Gay]], but even [[Boisterous Bruiser|Tuddrussel]]'s thin wall of restraint crumbles quickly.
* [[Donald Duck]]: One could argue that in [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JIkPP_PGd6c&feature=related The Three Caballeros] Panchito and Jose are ''all'' ''over'' Donald. Even kissing him a few times. In the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jy5k7cVz5Y0&feature=related House of Mouse] episode of the Three Caballeros, Donald also is forced to wear a dress before tearing it apart in a rage exposing his nude and toned body while the other two hoist him up...for all to see. In the comics [https://web.archive.org/web/20120414180314/http://disneycomics.free.fr/Ducks/Rosa/show.php?s=date&loc=D2000-002 The Three Caballeros Ride Again] and [https://web.archive.org/web/20120414180335/http://disneycomics.free.fr/Ducks/Rosa/show.php?s=date&loc=D2004-032 The Magnificent Seven (Minus Four) Caballeros], they both praise constantly praise his machismo and bravery. Even Pete in [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15G7GtYoLjw "Music Store Donald"] briefly falls in love with him when he hears Donald play the harp. Lastly, more cartoons have shown Donald naked or referred to his body than any other Disney character! Gotta admit this duck is sexy!
* Jonesy from ''[[6teen]]''. In the episode "Stupid Over Cupid" a [[Gay Cowboy]] wanted to go on a date with him.
* Virgil in ''[[Static Shock]]''. Richie, his best friend, rather intensely fanboys him and is hinted to be gay for him.
