Line 4:
The Hot Dad, a male parental figure that caters to the ''female'' (or [[Fan Yay|gay male]]) demographic's wants and desires.
The Hot Dad possesses an appearance more fitting for half his age, and is often a widower. He dotes on [[
Sometimes abbreviated as a DILF, short for "Daddy I'd Like (to) Fuck."
In the case where the Hot Dad is actively pursued by women half his age in-universe, he can become the series ''[[

Line 58:
* 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]]).
* He probably avoided this list for so long because people often remember him for his shadowy, smiley-faced form, but Hotaru's father Doctor Shuichi Tomoe from ''[[Sailor Moon]]'' was actually something of a [[White
** Usagi's dad Kenji qualifies too; he's very tall and well-built.
** 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.
** Even ''Artemis the cat'' is a [[Hot Shoujo Dad]]. When in his [[White
* Kim Kaphwan from ''[[Fatal Fury]]'' and ''[[The King of Fighters]]''. ''Specially'' in the ''Special'' games (where his two kids show up in his intros and win poses) and the Motion Picture (where his [[Hot Mom|also gorgeous wife]] appears too).
* ''Kirepapa'' provides a yaoi example -- 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.
** Hell, Shunsuke's dad (and Chisato's former upperclassman) should count too! Especially if you have a thing for the CEO type in suit and glasses. Also, they get a flashback to their teen years, wherein Chisato is... even more uke.
* For the female tropers who like their guys older and more rugged, [[Colonel Badass]] Sergei Smirnov from ''[[Gundam 00]]'' definitely qualifies. He ''was'' shown in his younger years in the second season's flashbacks, too.
** [[Gundam Wing|Relena Darlian's]] (adoptive) father, Premier Darlian, was ''very'' [[Tall, Dark and Handsome]]. Her biological father {{spoiler|King Peacecraft}} cut a very impressive figure, too, combining his [[Badass Beard]] with a nice military uniform and [[Badass Long Hair|quite a long hair.]] {{spoiler|Too bad he's dead.}}
** Quatre's father Zayeed "Master" Winner also was pretty good-looking. Basically, age up Quatre's [[Ho Yay|"best friend"]] Trowa by 25 years, add a [[Badass Moustache]], and here you go.
** 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.
Line 89:
* [[The White Prince|Mendou and Ryoko's]] dad from [[Urusei Yatsura]] is a very good looking older man. In fact, he just looks like his son Shuutarou with a mustache.
* {{spoiler|Mitaka}} is heading towards this trope by the end of [[Maison Ikkoku]]. {{spoiler|Godai has already reached it, though he's more cute than hot. Specially compared with his [[Hot Mom]] companion, Kyouko.}}
* Syn I from ''[[Helios Eclipse]]''. {{spoiler|Who is also [[Luke, I Am Your Father|Eddy]].}} While his child may be a toddler, Spade certainly counts too.
* The main character's father in ''Aoi Destruction'', who looks and acts more like a little girl to the point that [[Even the Guys Want Him]], <s>until</s> ''even after'' they've realized that [[Dropped a Bridget On Him|it's a trap]].
* Van Hohenheim from ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist]]'' looks older than the standard {{spoiler|and is MUCH. much older than he looks}}, but fits in like whoa.
Line 95:
** {{spoiler|Father in his final form. It helps that he looks like a younger Hohenheim}}
** {{spoiler|And in the end of the manga, Ed becomes a hot dad too. With Winry as his [[Hot Mom]] companion.}}
* [[Umineko no Naku Koro Ni|Rudolf Ushiromiya]] has aged pretty well. One of the few examples that has both a [[Bishonen|handsome]] [[Agent Scully|son]] AND [[Moe|an adorable little daughter]] (who [[Future Badass|grows up to be]] [[Tall, Dark and Bishoujo|quite pretty herself]]). He's also a unique widower in that he has already remarried, and his second wife/Ange's mother Kyrie is a [[Hot Mom]] [[White
* Honey's father, Dr. Kisaragi, was made into a hot shoujo dad for [[Cutie Honey]] Flash.
* Hajime Shibata in ''[[Hell Girl]]'', despite token attempts at slobbishness (i.e. four-o'clock stubble). Also looks ludicrously young, when you consider that his daughter Tsugumi is at least ten years old.
Line 118:
* [[Batman]] currently has ''six'' kids running around the DCnU: his biological son, three adopted sons, one adopted daughter, and one biological daughter from a parallel universe.
* Arguably, Magnus aka Magneto from the [[X-Men]].
** [[Standardized Leader|Cyclops']] father [[Lovable Rogue|Corsair]] and [[Nineties Anti Hero|son]] [[Cable (Comic Book)|Cable]] (who is also a father, as well as a [[Papa Wolf|father figure]] in recent arcs) have significant followings of their own. Cyke himself is a bit more of a [[Base Breaker]], though out of the three men [[Tall, Dark and Handsome|fits the physical type best.]]
* In [[Gold Digger (Comic Book)|Gold Digger]], Theodore Diggers: father of three, grandfather, and all-around beefcake. He ''still'' makes women swoon well into his sixties, including his own [[Hot Mom|hot wife]] Julia.
* In ''[[Teen Titans (Comic Book)|Teen Titans]]'' and ''[[Green Arrow]]'', Roy Harper definitely qualifies.
Line 126:
* Robert of Disney's ''[[Enchanted]]'' is a rare, live-action ''Western'' example of this trope. Then again, his daughter is only 7, so he is only a borderline example.
* Another western example would be {{spoiler|Indiana Jones in ''[[Indiana Jones and The Kingdom of The Crystal Skull (Film)|Indiana Jones and The Kingdom of The Crystal Skull]]''}} and Henry Jones in ''[[The Last Crusade (Film)|The Last Crusade]]'', Sr (for the die-hard-devoted lady fans of [[Sean Connery]]) in the ''[[Indiana Jones (Franchise)|Indiana Jones]]'' saga.
* There was a brief moment in [[Lord of the Rings (Film)|Lord of the Rings]] where Arwen sees a vision of her young son with an aged Aragorn. And damn, [[Grandma, What Massive Hotness You Have!|he still looks fine.]] Not to mention he acts as the [[Team Dad]] and [[A Father to His Men]] for the rest of the Fellowship.
* Jude Law's character from ''[[The Holiday]]'', a widowed man with two young daughters.
* [[Will Smith]] as the hard-working, charismatic single dad Chris Gardner in [[The Pursuit of Happyness]]. The doggedness with which he protects his son from their unfortunate living conditions is truly awe-inspiring, especially since this is also a [[Real Life]] example.
Line 157:
** Alan Jackson, Maria's father, on ''[[The Sarah Jane Adventures]]''. He cooks, cleans, works out, skateboards, and fends off his ex-wife. All the while managing to remain oblivious to all the oddness in his daughter's life since they moved the house opposite a former ''[[Doctor Who (TV)|Doctor Who]]'' companion. {{spoiler|That is until Maria gets abducted by aliens who use [[Ret Gone]], because he had a doohickey in his possession that made him immune he remembers her and goes [[Papa Wolf]] on said aliens.}} His {{spoiler|replacement character}} Haresh is pretty hot as well.
** In ''[[Torchwood]]'', {{spoiler|Jack Harkness}} has at least one daughter. She's naturally starting to {{spoiler|look older than he does}}, and although they care a lot about each other, she doesn't want him to freak out her own child. This being ''Torchwood'', [[It Gets Worse]].
* The Chilean telenovela ''Papi Ricky'' ("Daddy Ricky") has one of these as its main character. He's raised his daughter alone for eight years, and apart from dealing with her strict great-grandmother (Grandma of the kid's [[Missing Mom]]), he's a [[Cool Teacher]] in the middle of a [[Love Triangle]] along with a [[Proper Lady]] co-worker and a mysterious [[Broken Bird]] who befriends his little girl {{spoiler|(and who actually ''is'' the [[Missing Mom]], only with [[Laser
* [[Supernatural|Daddy John Winchester]]. You might not want him as your father ([[Parents As People|because, well, he's got VERY SERIOUS issues]]) but ''damn'', the old guy is hot. Just look out for the [[Cartwright Curse]]: it runs in the family.
** Let's not forget Jimmy Novak, {{spoiler|Castiel's vessel}}.
Line 176:
* Benjamin Sisko of ''[[Star Trek Deep Space Nine]]''.
* Jonathan Kent on ''[[Smallville]]''.
* Leroy Jethro Gibbs on ''[[NCIS]]''. His own daughter and wife are dead, but he's [[Team Dad]] to the NCIS [[True Companions|crew]]. [[Badass|Ziva]] calls him the closest thing she's had to a father figure, and [[Genki Girl|Abby]] plays the [[
* Awesome from ''[[Chuck]]''. Have you seen his abs?
** Also, John Casey. Then again, he's played by [[Adam Baldwin]].
Line 225:
* The few times we see him, ''[[Golden Sun (Video Game)|Golden Sun]]'''s Kyle looks like he could be Isaac's scruffy older brother.
** And it seems to run in the family, as Isaac himself is shaping up to be this in ''Dark Dawn''.
** {{spoiler|[[Hidden Agenda Villain|Alex]] is implied to be Amiti's father in ''Dark Dawn'', and still every bit the [[Bishounen]] he was in the first two games. On the other hand, he's also still [[Manipulative Bastard|A]][[
* Dr. Cossack from ''[[Mega Man (Video Game)|Mega Man]]''. Does anyone else find those glasses incredibly attractive? [[Your Mileage May Vary|Anyone?]]
* Kazuma Kiryuu from ''[[Ryu ga Gotoku|Yakuza]]'' is apparently one of these; all the women at the hostess clubs seem to find him ''very'' attractive.
Line 231:
** Though Cecil's the only one with a child in ''[[The After Years]]'', the same basic principle (attractive older man) applies to Edge, Kain, {{spoiler|Golbez}}, and Edward (Yang too, if your taste runs that way). These are men ranging from thirty-eight to fifty-two, all of them looking at least ten years younger. Significant parts of the fandom find them more attractive now than at their supposed prime.
*** Actually, Cecil [http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Ursula_Fang_Leiden isn't the only main character] with a child. She's a playable character even.
* In ''[[Disgaea Hour of Darkness]]'', it turns out that, much to everyone's surprise, the self-titled Dark Adonis Vyers has a teenaged son: {{spoiler|[[Luke, I Am Your Father|Laharl]]}}.
* Chuck Greene from ''[[Dead Rising 2]]'' is a stellar example. Apart from his [http://www.crushfragdestroy.com/wp-content/gallery/dead-rising-2-x10-screens/stoic_chuck_bmp_jpgcopy.jpg rugged good looks], he's good with his hands, would go through [[Zombie Apocalypse|hell]] for his daughter, [[Virtual Paper Doll|and can be dressed in skimpy outfits]].
* Carth Onasi from ''[[Knights of the Old Republic]]''. Of course, he lost his son in the Telos bombing {{spoiler|you do find the kid. He's gone Sith, and it's on you both to try and talk him out of it...if you're inclined}}.
Line 247:
== Web Original ==
* [[White
* [[Ask That Guy With the Glasses (Web Video)|Ask That Guy With the Glasses]] has fathered God knows how many children, and is by far the [[Female Gaze|most]] [[Mr. Fanservice|sexualized]] [[Depraved Bisexual|person]] on [[That Guy With the Glasses (Website)|the site]].
** For a [[Ship Tease]] [[Big Lipped Alligator Moment]] in the ''[[Fern Gully]]'' review, the [[Papa Wolf]] [[Pretty Boy]] [[The Nostalgia Critic (Web Video)|Nostalgia Critic]] became a [[Mister Seahorse]] daddy courtesy of [[The Nostalgia Chick (Web Video)|The Nostalgia Chick]].
