Greetings nerdy list aficionados we’re back with a highly requested one, seriously this
keeps coming up but people have been putting it off cause it’s one of those lists where
you know no matter who you pick it’s going to go awry because let’s face it beauty
is in the eye of the beholder.
But I’m here to take one for the team as the emblem of thirst and we’re going to
talk about the Top 10 Hottest anime characters.
I’m Sasha and let’s get going so you can tell me what atrocious taste I have down in
the comments
Number 10 Zecks Marquise from Gundam Wing.
He’s purely here cause I am currently re-watching Gundam Wing and my inner teenager girl has
reared her head.
Seriously though long flowing locks and over the knee boots aside.
Zecks had one of the most compelling arcs in the show in my eyes, his struggles with
his own self worth his dedication to peace by understanding of war and at times it’s
necessity made him an interesting character.
The fact that the series focused so equally on most of the characters meant that you got
to see him grow, love and come to reconcile himself to his ideals.
It was compelling stuff only accented by the demasking reveal which come on none of us
were surprised.
I mean he’s essentially just a redone version of Char from Mobile Suit Gundam seriously
the same look the same arcs.
Think about it.
Also the creators just flat out admit it.
Number 9 – Miles Edgeworth from the ace attorney visual novel games series which also
has an anime so it counts don’t at me.
Miles Edgeworth starts off as a rival to protagonist at least the initial protagonist of the series
Phoenix Wright.
A young upstart prosecutor named so at 20 he has a perfect win record until Wright comes
along.
His tale is one of humility and having to examine ones own methods.
It’s also about not knowing how one comes across and gradually softening but never quite
losing that arrogant streak.
So in short stuck up with a secret heart of gold and a ludricrous cravat, which I’m
into also when he gets older he gets glasses.
His story gets so convoluted and dark it’s amazing betrayed by his father figure who
adopted him and turned him into a prosecutor just so he could accuse him of a murder that
he hadn’t committed that of his own father which was why he adopted him in the first
place.
Fantastic melodramatic stuff.
The games the first three are coming back for PS4 and more importantly to me PC.
So if you never played get stocked and get ready to discover Miles Edgeworth.
Number 8 -Viktor Nikiforov from the phenomenon that was Yuri on Ice ok look the anime wanted
you to think he was attractive and I fell for it.
I’m basic like a pumpkin spice latte.
Victor is a champion figure skater who takes his own love interest under his wing to train.
The anime is full of beautiful moments, colourful costumes and all the undeclared yaoi a fangirl
could hope for.
It’s a fluffy anime and he’s just a kind hearted and understanding character.
Sometimes there’s nothing wrong with something simple.
Number 7 – Levi Ackerman From Attack on Titan this is all for you, Attack on Titan
proved itself to be a massive hit particularly when the anime began airing all the way back
in 2013 yes it has been that long.
The series also proved to resonate in some deeper ways than anticipated with youth who
felt it was speaking to issues they themselves were facing, particularly in the East.
On top of that some fans felt that the characters were not too bad to look at particularly Levi
Ackerman who developed a firm fanbase fast.
Oh the fan art the glorious fan art.
This cold seemingly aloof skilled leader of the survey corps special operation squad.
Some fans just couldn’t resist.
He fascinated them and they wanted to know and see more.
Seriously sooo much fanart just type his name and anything like Maid you’ll find some
stuff.
Number 6 – Makoto Tachibana – Free really just everyone from Free for those not in the
know Free!
Iwatobi Swim Club was an anime about a swim team their training and trials and tribulations,
but really it was about thirst and lots of fans lusting after every single character
with a special mention going out to the swim captain himself Makoto.
The first anime run was in 2013 apparently that was just a good year for hot anime men.
Though some would argue every year is a good year for that.
Number 5 – Sasuke from Naruto this is a classic a blast from the past and in the west
for some their first taste of anime thirst.
And for some it’s still going because so is this series in one way or another.
Like a proper Shonen it will never be over, the rivalry between sasuke and the title character
led to many rooting for what some call a bad boy though he has more going on.
Currently at the time of this recording he’s involved in some choking memes because he’s
still relevant and people are still thirsty.
It’s honestly easier to check out gifs and images because there’s a lot of series the
original anime ran for 220 episodes and Shippuden ran for 500 yes you heard that right so good
luck to all you binge watchers out there.
Number 4 – Let’s get controversial Light Yagami from Death Note.
Death Note amassed a wide array of fans and it got some people quite concerned there was
a phase where people were trying to draw some connections between death note and some suicides
and there was a murder connection.
And there were also those who found themselves quite fond of light sometimes it’s fun to
root for the bad guy or if not root than just take a walk into the dark side in a safe fantasy
space.
Light is supposed to be attractive within the anime it was even a plot point.
That suave cool calculation was intriguing there’s a lot to be said for nuance when
it comes to enhancing how attractive fans will find a character.
Number 3 – Ichigo – Bleach remember when Bleach was a thing because yeah Bleach was
quite the phenomenon and so were the fandoms feelings for it’s protagonist.
Actually people were into a lot of characters from that show but Ichigo was a constant one
of those characters that left a mark on fandom for many in terms of thirst.
A bit of a throwback but hey there’s nothing wrong with a classic.
Number 2 – Sebastian Michaelis – again this is all for you guys there seems to be
a concensus out there that one you have to watch black Butler and 2 that said Butler
is just the bees knees.
Is it the uniform it it the affectation of constantly tugging on his gloves at the wrist
with his teeth.
Is it the casual use of magic, the hyper confidence, the willingness to defend and be loyal til
the end.
All of the above.
Black Butler for those who have not watched it is an intriguing show.
It starts off and you think it’s one thing and you’ve got it figured out but then it
just takes you on a ride.
Number 1 – So whoever is here let’s be real outrage riots in the streets, universes
shattering timeline skirting to an abrupt halt.
Really the hottest anime guy is whoever your fave is.
Search your feelings you know it to be true but of course we can’t not have a number
1.
So without further ado.
Drumrolll.
Spike Spiegel from Cowboy Bebop taking me back to my first ever anime list about greatest
anime where people yelled at me for putting it on the list.
Good times.
Now Cowboy Bebop was a seminal anime in the West and helped showcase the scope that anime
could reach and also that it could be viable and approachable to western viewers it also
did well in it’s land of origin but particularly so over here.
With it’s concept of Space Western already well ingrained.
Spike Spiegel, bounty hunter and ultimately tragically doomed protagonist.
Floats through life with an acceptance of the inevitability of all things that doesn’t
keep him from trying, and living and enjoying his life.
He’s complex and plays into tropes with which many are familiar yet brings something
new to the table and what’s hotter than that.
So of course tell me which anime men you think are the most appealing down below, I want
to know maybe some people will even get some anime recs out of it.
