The ethics of Anime-land are fluid and lackadaisical, and nowhere is this more evident than in the case of the Lovable Sex Maniac. This form of [[Casanova]] goes above and beyond the average sleaze, engaging in the full spectrum of perversion - from dabbling in pornography to blatant sexual advances to outright molestation, sometimes of severely underaged characters. In the real world, of course, (even real-world Japan) such behavior will land you in hot water - but in anime, the worst you'll get is a whack from a [[Hyperspace Mallet]]. The only thing that keeps the Lovable Sex Maniac from being a truly disturbing [[Anti-Hero]] is that his antics are always played for
A [[Hard-Drinking Party Girl]] can double as the Lovable Sex Maniac with, interestingly, very little change just because she's female, especially if the [[Fundamentally Female Cast|lack of men]] [[Sitch Sexuality|forces her]] to chase after women. Compare the [[Chivalrous Pervert]]. Contrast [[Handsome Lech]].
Line 16:
* Kakashi Hatake of ''[[Naruto]]'' takes the intentional handicap to its extreme by engaging in hand-to-hand combat while reading ''Make-out Paradise''. While this particular series seems to be little more than trashy romance novels, [[Fanfic]] authors take the same glee in writing lurid "excerpts" from the books that professional writers seem to take in coming up with [[Filth|fictitious porn titles]].
** Also, Kakashi Hatake has one of the more perverted jutsus, the 1000 Years of Death, which is just a very hard ass poke. It's basically a [[Martial Arts and Crafts]] version of ''[[Ass Shove|kancho]]'', a traditional Japanese prank.
** Come to think of it, most of the really powerful characters in ''[[Naruto]]'' are to some degree
*** The Third Hokage seems to grudgingly admit that Naruto would probably have been able to defeat him with the Harem Jutsu. Which is his [[Gender Bender]] jutsu times [[Me's a Crowd|Shadow Clone Jutsu]]. Also, [[All There in the Manual|according to the databook]], his hobby is talking to young girls.
** Killer Bee appeared to be this when he freaked out over Tsunade's breast size. At the time it could have just been that he was really surprised by them (after all, those things are ''huge''). {{spoiler|Later, when fighting his former colleague Yugito, who at this point is a [[Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot|Demon possessing ninja zombie]], he takes the time and effort to look down her exposed chest when an attack opens up her shirt.}}
Line 77:
** He had a chance with one of the girls in his class during his training. After what she put him through, he didn't trust it, and when it was too late for him to act on it, she proves her willingness by showing him that shes not wearing panties. He promises to come back when he has a chance.
* Two similar characters in this trope are Keita from ''[[Inukami!]]'' and Kakeru from ''[[Akikan]]''. Both of them are absolutely shameless in their behavior, but they don't end up with much success either, often being struck with [[Amusing Injuries]].
** Note that in both cases their [[Magical Girlfriend
* Spirit Albarn of ''[[Soul Eater]]'', shameless flirt and fan of all things female. Of course this has cost him his marriage and [[Bumbling Dad|made his daughter rather frosty towards him]]. [[Papa Wolf|At least he tries to make up for it]].
** {{spoiler|Liz and Tsubaki}} have been revealed to be [[Covert Pervert
*** Last three. {{spoiler|Blair is the most perverted (you should realize this by the end of the first episode), and admits to still being male after the other two change back to normal. It's just that Blair has a cat form so its hard to tell exactly when/if she's changed back... it would make a nice [[Brick Joke]] if she's still transformed.}}
* Ms. Yoshinoya in the ''[[Hidamari Sketch]]'' manga. She's able to suggest going nude at the drop of a hat, and commented that [[Older Than They Look|Yuno]]'s small butt looks cute.
* The title character of ''[[Iono the Fanatics]]'', whose favorite pastime involves enthusiastically trying to make [[Girls Love|her large lesbian harem]] even larger.
* Sei from ''[[Mariasama ga Miteru]]'' is clearly having the time of her life as the one fully outed lesbian at an all-girl institution, filled with lovely students.
** As is Kanako from ''[[Maria Holic]]''
* Hayate Yagami of ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha]]'', who the [[All There in the Manual|Sound Stages]] reveal to have a more perverted side that [[Skinship Grope|really likes breasts]], even back when she was a 9-year old [[Ill Girl]], much to the horror of [[Lady of War|Signum]]. Remember, it's not sexual harassment, it's fun skinship between girls.
* Jouji "George" Koizumi from ''[[Paradise Kiss]]'' is a less comedic version, and his [[Depraved Bisexual|perversion]] is played [[Deconstruction|mostly seriously]]. Right after his first kiss with Yukari in his car, he conversationally asks her where she prefers to be taken to lose her virginity (the options being a cemetery, a rooftop, and ''last'' his bed). He also makes constant comments about his friend Arashi's ass (he once nudges it with a pool cue), boasts about his proficiency with knots and offers to tie Arashi's girlfriend Miwako up ''in front of her boyfriend''.
Line 110:
* Eri from [[Fujimura-kun Mates]], another female example, simply loves to imagine herself in perverted situations with the titular character, and never hesitates to let him know. Doesn't make her any less cute.
* [[Inu X Boku SS]] gives us Nobara Yukinokouji, who, in her first appearance, fondly tells Ririchiyo, unabashedly, that she'd like to be in a sexual relationship with her.
* Rika of [[Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai]], oh so very much. Offers herself to Kodaka shortly after they
* Issei Hyoudou in ''[[High School DxD|Highschool Dx D]]'' is this seeing as he's lecherous towards women. Yet ''all'' of his harem are in love with him and are A-OK with him being as much perverted as possible. To a lesser extent, so [[Those Two Guys|are Matsuda and Motohama]] and [[Troll|Kiryuu Aika]].
Line 118:
* Weekly from ''[[Blacksad]]'' is the epitome of this trope. He's a complete and incorrigable [[Chivalrous Pervert|perv]] but we love him because he's cute and he knows when to get serious.
* ''[[I Luv Halloween]]'': Take out lovable, and you got Mr Kitty, a young trick-or-treater dressed as a cat who loves to ogle at womens' cleavages. In the first volume, his head actually explodes when he witnesses a teenager flashing her bowling-ball sized breasts in anger.
* Deacon from James Stokoe's ''[[Wonton Soup]]'', he's a space trucker and relates many [[Noodle Incident
* [[Cherry Comics|Cherry]]
* Who could forget [[Higurashi no Naku Koro ni|Keiichi's]] [[Large Ham|dramatic]] speech on how men are supposed to be perverts?
Line 130:
* G-rated example: Bingo Little from ''[[Jeeves and Wooster (novel)|Jeeves and Wooster]]'' is infatuated with every woman he meets and, having the attention span of a moth, forgets them as soon as the next skirt shows up (though eventually he settles down and gets married).
* Bob the Skull from ''[[The Dresden Files]]'', who mostly averts the creepiness involved with this trope by being, well, ''a skull''.<ref>Though he did cause an orgy in a frat house last time Harry let him out.</ref> Harry bribes/rewards him for acting as [[Mr. Exposition]] by buying him trashy pornographic romance novels.
* Fitz Kreiner, from the [[Eighth Doctor Adventures]], is a fairly mild form of this. He has a [[Girl of the Week]] in every other book, kissed a girl against her will and then set up a [[Did They or Didn't They?]] situation when she was unconscious in his bed (as a testament to the "lovable" part of the trope title, they become good friends), once ogled a thirteen-year-old girl (and mentally kicked himself for it), and has admitted to a couple of [[
* Prince Dharvish from ''The Fire's Stone''. He's not just a lovable sex maniac, he's a lovable, alcoholic, flamboyantly bisexual sex maniac. Maintains a strict code of honor concerning consent and acceptable age, much to the relief of his celibate "treaty bride" and the disappointment of a too young servant.
* Victor Mancini from ''[[Choke]]'', though at times the lovable part comes into question. It's probably worth mentioning that he's also the half-clone of Jesus. {{spoiler|But not really.}}
Line 147:
* Jason Stackhouse from the HBO series version of ''[[True Blood]]''. His antics constantly get him into trouble, but he's not portrayed as a bad person, just... dumb.
** His [[The Sookie Stackhouse Mysteries|book counterpart]] didn't have most of HBO!Jason's vices: He was just a good-natured lunkhead of a [[Kavorka Man]] who tended to think with the wrong head. Recent personal tragedy has motivated him to clean up his act.
* Barney from ''[[How I Met Your Mother]]'' is set up as this, but in a more reasonable
** Lily is also an example of this, but monogamous. She once claims that if Marshall stopped having sex with her, she would be "giving it up on the street for a nickel."
*** Oh please. Lily has frequently made comments about, and passes at, Robin to varying degrees of perversion. Of course, this could just be that she likes Robin in particular, or that she's bi in general.
Line 173:
== [[Professional Wrestling]] ==
* Jerry Lawler. Despite being old enough to be the
** Some say he's actually like that in real life (to a lesser degree anyway).
** Worth noting is that these days he's not quite as bad about it as he used to be, possibly due to WWE going PG. He has lampshaded his formerly perverse nature on at least one occasion.
