[[File:momoko and her holiday bear.jpg|link=Wedding Peach|frame|Cute, cuddly, and looks great with her [["Happy Holidays" Dress|Christmas]] [[Sexy Santa Dress|dress]].]]

 

* Another male example is Dr. Ni Jianyi of ''[[Saiyuki|Saiyuki Reload]]'', who carries around a stuffed rabbit doll at all times {{spoiler|which is later revealed to be a [[Chekhov's Gun]].}}

* [[Depraved Homosexual|Grell Sutcliff]] of the ''[[Black Butler (anime)|Black Butler]]'' series could also qualify, as he is often depicted in [[Splash Panel|Splash]] [http://static.minitokyo.net/view/32/11/485582.jpg Pages] holding a [[Creepy Doll]] version of [[Foe Yay|Sebastian]]. This is taken further in the second season of the anime, wherein Grell is shown holding a Sebastian plush which he kisses before placing among doll versions of Ciel and Alois. He then proceeds to viciously destroy the latter dolls with his chainsaw "scythe."

* In ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'', {{spoiler|Luna aka Shiori}} carried a plush rabbit as a little girl. Seen during {{spoiler|the flashback where Fate, her master, recruits her comrade Homura.}}

** Nodoka also has a stuffed rabbit thing that serves as her backpack.

* In ''[[Yotsuba&!]]'', Ena has not only her teddy bears but a couple other plushies in her room, and Fuka has a [[Azumanga Daioh|Chiyo-chichi]] as well. Since acquiring her first teddy bear, Yotsuba has been carrying Duralumin ''everywhere''.

* Usagi from ''[[Junjou Romantica]]'' is a rare adult male example. He collects stuffed bears, and is sometimes shown carrying a large bear called Suzuki around his house. Later we see he has a whole room dedicated to them.

* In ''[[Freezing]]'', Satellizer may have issues, but she keeps a few plushies in her room.

* In ''[[Hidamari Sketch]]'' Yuno has a (realistic) teddy bear which she squeezes at one point.

* [[Mad Bomber|Minnie May Hopkins]] from ''[[Gunsmith Cats]]'' has a lot of stuffed animals and sometimes carries them around in public. She's 17 at the start of the manga, but looks and sometimes acts as if she was eight or nine.

* In ''[[Madoka Magica]]'', Kaname Madoka's room is filled with stuffed animals.

* At the end of ''[[Gundam Wing]]'', Heero gives Relena a teddy bear for her birthday. Rather than being an expression of girliness, however, there's a deeper symbolic meaning behind it: {{spoiler|as shown in flashbacks, Heero accidentally blew up a building on a botched mission, including a young girl who befriended him earlier that same day, leaving behind nothing but a teddy bear. Thus, the bear he gives Relena can be seen as his attempting to redeem his mistake by protecting her the way he couldn't the little girl.}}

* Chihiro from ''[[Tamayura]]'' has a bedroom filled with self-made plushies, and in one particularly heartwarming moment she gives a whole set to Fuu as a parting gift.

* Itsuki from ''[[Heartcatch Pretty Cure]]'' has a good-sized collection of stuffed animals; being the [[Heir to the Dojo]], she hides them away because it would conflict with the cool, boyish image she wants to project.

* Hitsugi Kirigaya from ''[[Akuma no Riddle]]'' carries a pink teddy bear everywhere she goes. {{spoiler|There's a poison dart gun hidden inside of it.}}

 

== [[Comic Books]] ==

=== [[Visual Novels]] ===

* [[Lady of War|Saber]] from the ''[[Fate/stay night|Fate Stay Night]]'' visual novel gets a stuffed lion from Fujimura-sensei early on in the Fate path. Later, during day fourteen, Shirou takes Saber on a date, where they go visit "the biggest stuffed animal store in town", a place where "no men are allowed" (or at least, that's an unspoken rule according to Shirou).

** However, in the same series there's a more light-hearted take on the trope: while Sakutaro does not appear as a stuffed animal to the Seven Sisters of Purgatory (rather, he has the appearance of a cute little boy with lion ears wearing an oversized shirt), they still adore him and always glomp him every chance they get.

 

* Kotone of ''[[Tsunami Channel]]'' fame is quite the addict to collecting plushies, and her favorite is a fox-shaped one. Alex, who is a boy but love stuffed animals just the same.

* Grace gets a nice-sized squirrel plush in an ''[[El Goonish Shive]]'' filler panel; it shows up in her arms in the main comic, too.

* Terezi of ''[[Homestuck]]'' has many dragon plushies of various colors scattered around her treehive. In her introduction, she is shown pretending to be an [[Amoral Attorney]] prosecuting one of her plushies in a [[Kangaroo Court]], and hanging it from her tree. The camera zooms out to reveal at least a dozen other stuffed dragons who shared the same fate.

* In ''[[Freefall]]'', Helix is generally referred to as male, but still loves those [http://freefall.purrsia.com/ff1200/fv01108.htm stuffed animals], which Florence has borrowed from time to time for herself.

* Kharla'ggen of ''[[Drowtales]]'' has loved plushies for years, and they helped calm her down when she was at her most crazy. Unfortunately then [[It Got Worse|things got worse]] and along with the other plushies, Kharla started making dolls out of [[Living Doll Collector|living people]].

* [[The Nostalgia Chick]] has a shedload of cuddly toys. She's not quite girly, but it shows she's not trying too hard to be adult.

** Nella still plays with her [[My Little Pony]] toys, and Elisa's ready to kill when her ''[[Phantom of the Opera]]'' plushie is accidentally stabbed through with a dart.
