| As much as we tend to love our anime Waifus, the male anime characters who are meant to be 'Role Models' or 'Sigma male' have also garnered quite insane male following with dedicated fanbase enough to be worshipped. Our textbook examples for these type of male characters would be edgy, ruthless male characters who happen to be very smart like Ayanokouji Kiyokata from Classroom of the Elite. If you go to YouTube, all guys will be posting sigma edits of these anime guys very frequently, idolizing toxic aspects of their character quite a lot. What male anime characters do you think have garnered very dedicated hardcore fanboys in your opinion? |
We can't talk about dedicated hardcore anime weeb fanboys and not mention Dragon Ball Z and the idolization of Goku. |

| Fanboys? Guts and fanboys have a connection thicker than blood. |
 -Tohka is better than Kurumi. You can't change my mind. |
| ayanokoji kiyotaka. it makes me laugh everytime i see a "sigma male" edit of him. i once saw a yt thubnail titled, "how to become genuis mastermind like ayanokoji" or "how to manipualte people" or something along that lines. corny and funny af. |
 The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama. Feeling half happy, half sad. Kawaii waifus and precious best girls <3333 |

| @tchitchouan All the cartel homies love goku, like half the DBZ fanbase gotta be cartel members |
 |
| Erin Levi Guts Gojou Dio Bakugo Luffy |
| "Well, she's flatter than a pancake" -Mimi Alpacas |
| There is lot of them in battle-shonen anime lmao. For the pick, i consider Itachi on the top spot for non MC. |
 |
| Most shonen MCs, or the OP side characters like Levi or Gojo. |
| Astolfo. Many dudes simp for him lol. |
 This ground is soiled by those before me and their lies. I dare not look up for on me I feel their eyes |
| Zenitsu fanboys must be some hardcore wimps. |
*kappa* |
| Char Aznable is a big one. There was also this thing. https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2020-12-10/according-to-poll-japanese-kids-admire-tanjiro-more-than-their-parents/.167251 |
| その目だれの目？ |
| L fanboys are interesting, the lengths they go to shove him in your faces, I think they are more annoying than goku and guts fans. Ayanokouji fans are kinda chill but yeah, dedicated and let's not talk about sinbad fans, they always give me a headache. |
    |
| Are we using "fanboys" as in male fans, or just an overall term for fans of something? If the latter, just put pictures of any male character from JJK on a male and throw a dart blindly, you'll have an answer. If the former, probably characters that everyone else has mentioned. Any of the super popular battle shounen have at least one charcter that that. |
 |
| Onizuka from GTO is quite impactful to some. |
ow + nw = 90-2000s |
| Okabe is my favourite character of all time, and i'm not alone on that. We aren't really a strong fanbase though, mostly cause the reason we love the guy tends to be more... personal. Guts fro. berserk is in the same category. |

| @DreamWindow Yeah, because there's pretty much nothing male about him... |
| If you reply back to me and I never respond, I lost interest and don't care. Sorry about that. |
| Zoro from One Piece is my 1st thought on it. |
 |
| Shirogane Takeru fanboys act like he's anything worth being significantly interested about. ... God i hate shithead kids loudly voicing their opinions that shouldn't even deserve being heard by lucifer |
 |
| Itachi and Minato tho I'm surprised to see people saying Gojo since I mainly see women thirsting after him |

@TsutanaiFuun LMAO I love these memes they are so ridiculous. Idolizing a dude who isn't capable of feeling emotion because the sigma grindset and the grustle are too real hahaha |

| @LostSpectre I mean yeah, but people make a big deal about the fact that he is indeed a he. If it were just a generic pink haired anime girl I don't think it would have as much of a fanbase. Just a strange thing to fixate on when considering the popularity of the character. But I'll be the first to admit I'm just talking out of my ass here. I'm just speaking from what I've seen. Edit: LostSpectre said: @DreamWindow Correct. I'm just saying his inclusion here is suspect because he's pretty much only "male" on a technicality. lol True lol |

| Isn't Gojo what's popular these days? Not that I know. |
"Nobody could laugh at someone who's trying their hardest" -Machio- |
| Guts and Musashi from Vagabond seem to be really big with the gym/male self-improvement crowd. |
Take care of yourself |

| Goku,Guts, Eren yeager, Monkey D luffy , Dio, and that Gojo guy seem to be the most popular with hetero male fanboys from what I observed. back in the day I saw alot of uchiha worship from fanboys mainly Itachi and Madara lol. And then in south america Phoenix ikki and Gemini Saga seem to have lots of fanboys as well. |

| Zoro was the first character to come to my mind. |

LoveLikeBlood said: Guts and Musashi from Vagabond seem to be really big with the gym/male self-improvement crowd. Well said. For me, Guts and many of the characters from Dragon Ball remain prime inspirations in my quest to work out and become healthier. Pushing my limits and going beyond. Helps my mental tremendously. ^^ |

Ayanokouji fans are kinda chill but yeah, dedicated and let's not talk about sinbad fans, they always give me a headache. Do Ayanokouji fans even exist? This guy is just Hikigaya Hachiman with abs, and the whole anime feels like a bad rip-off of Yahari (Horikita is a cheap Yukino, etc)... That this character has become a symbol of "smart" people really tells something about the current anime community... The only acceptable role model below:  (I like Aizen and Makishima too, but also acknowledge that they are psychopaths...) |
Satoru Gojo, I suppose. I also like him so much!! |
 |
| The ones with a zoro-ichigo-sasuke combination are what called as "terrorists" on twitter with their horrid opinions and obnoxiousness Oh guts stans are preety interesting as well |
 |
| I wouldn't be surprised if Gray "I Can't Keep My Clothes On" Fullbuster from Fairy Tail had a fanboy following. |
 (images created in AI) |
| Many guys from IDOLiSH7, Free!, Haikyuu, KnB, etc. |
 |
| Kaneki Ken Bcs he has white hair, crack his fingers, cries a lot etc... |
 |
| a lot of people be on gojo dick I don't like him |
