The '''Hot Dad''', a male parental figure that caters to the ''female'' (or [[Fan Yay|gay male]]) demographic's wants and desires.

** Negima seems to be in love with this trope lately, as [[Genki Girl]] Yuuna Akashi's father was revealed to be a [[Hot Dad]] during her [[Day in The Limelight]] chapter. Apparently, he's so hot his ''own daughter'' seems just a little too... [[Parental Incest|attached]] to him.

* Although the show is definitely shounen, Max Jenius in [[Macross 7]] is just as hot in his fifties as he was in teens -- exceptteens—except that he's got even [[Cool Shades|cooler shades]] and Hajime Saito-style [[Ahoge]]. Let's just forget that he's also [[Cool Old Guy]], [[The Ace]] and, quite obviously, the [[Canon Sue]].

* The inclusion of Hosokawa Gracia in ''[[Samurai Warriors]] 2 Xtreme Legends'' makes Akechi Mitsuhide a [[Hot Dad]]. It's probably the first role ever done by [[Hikaru Midorikawa]] as someone who had a child...

* [[The Prince of Tennis|Nanjiroh Echizen]] would qualify as [[Hot Dad]] if he shaved his stubble and dressed more or less normally. He ''was'' very attractive and a ladies man in his younger years ([[Love At First Punch|and married the Tsundere who didn't take his crap]]).

** Considering [[Kid From the Future|Chibi-Usa]], it's ''very'' safe to say that Mamoru himself will become a [[Hot Dad]] once she's properly born in the future. Hell, one of the reason's Usagi likes Mamoru is because he reminds her of her father.

* ''Kirepapa'' provides a yaoi example -- Chisatoexample—Chisato is old enough to be the father of teenaged Riju, but has a very cute and youthful appearance. Riju's upperclassman chum Shunsuke sees him as definite DILF material.

** By the time [[Zeta Gundam]] rolls in, Captain Bright Noah from the original Gundam series has become a [[Hot Dad]]. Some consider Hayato Kobayashi to be a cute dad, too, despite not being a bishonen by any league.

* ''[[Beauty Pop]]'''s Kiri Koshiba has a [[Hot Dad]] in her father, Seiji Koshiba. At the moment he's more on the scruffy seinen side, but flashbacks to his glory days as 'The Number One Stylist In The World' show him as totally bish. Presumably, Narumi Shogo's dad was also fairly hot-- Wehot—We never see him from the front, but it's often remarked how alike he and his son are, so presumably he would've looked like Narumi (if a bit older).

** There's also [[media:Ryuuken122-2.jpg|Dr. Ishida Ryuuken]], who looks more like Uryuu's older brother than his father. And as it turns out, he's not just [[Dr. Jerk]], {{spoiler|he's actually more powerful than his son, he just can't be bothered to use his powers; and he's known Isshin and his secret for a long time.}} [[media:Ryuken_colorRyuken color.jpg|Oh yeah.]]

* Mentioned in the ''[[Doctor Who]]'' [[Eighth Doctor Adventures]] novel ''Father Time''. The Eighth Doctor appears to be around forty and is such a [[Mr. Fanservice]] that the actor who played him actually has his own Estrogen Brigade. Miranda, his [[Children Raise You|adopted daughter]], has a best friend and classmate who, at only fifteen, [[Squick|squickssquick]]s said daughter by saying he's "gorgeous" and "hunky" and inquiring as to whether he "go[es] in for the schoolgirl type," and generally displays an excessive interest in his ([[Chaste Hero|almost nonexistent]]) love life.

* Braska of ''[[Final Fantasy X]]'' is a borderline example: Since he died when Yuna was little, all of his appearances in the game naturally show him as an attractive young man in his mid/late-twenties. He definitely fits the rest of the trope, though--afterthough—after Yuna's mother died when Sin destroyed the ship she was in, he decided to ''take on Sin'' so neither Yuna nor the rest of the world would suffer the same pain he went through.
