Late final week, we unveiled our listing of the highest 10 waifus from 2022. It featured the perfect queens that anime had on provide, from midnight assassins to leporid heroines, and we’re assured it introduced unbridled pleasure to a minimum of one individual on the market, statistically talking.
However I do know what you’re pondering. The place are the lads? These dashing lads, able to melting your coronary heart with a single smirk earlier than stealing away into the misty morning dew? Fear not, thirsty one, as a result of we’re again at it once more, this time with a prime 10 listing that merely oozes machismo. On your viewing delight, these are the boys who put the “ohhhhh” in husbando.
As earlier than, our rankings are restricted to just one entrant per anime.
10. Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto (Bleach)
For these of you desperate to have their daddy complicated catered to, we begin off scorching by going full granddaddy with a person who has loyally served his individuals for hundreds of years. He’s not only a silver fox, he’s a platinum kitsune, child.
Wizened as he could also be, Yamamoto will nonetheless mess you up twenty methods from Sunday, having hardly misplaced a step over a prolonged profession of badassery. To underestimate him is to satisfy a swift and brutal loss of life, and never coincidentally, this makes him our most popular protector from oncoming threats.
Selecting him as your husbando in all probability received’t lead to loads of picnics or baked items — a person who has seen so many birthdays certainly doesn’t have time to recollect yours — and but, watching him mow down hordes of enemies is sufficient to gentle a spark of ardour in even the timidest of temperaments. He additionally will get bonus factors for that gravelly outdated man voice, sure certainly.
9. Tengen Uzui (Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba)
Attempting to match to the valiant, lionhearted Flame Hashira, Kyojuro Rengoku, is not any small feat. After our souls had been laid naked within the occasions of the Mugen Prepare scuffle, we desperately sought a brand new mentor who might reassemble our fractured psyche.
We simply wanted a little bit little bit of coddling, however as a substitute, we acquired a flamboyant, muscular man with no sense of decency in any respect. Tengen Uzui is the very embodiment of noisy extra, which ought to actually come as no shock contemplating he’s the Sound Hashira and all. He in all probability might have additionally certified because the Vanity Hashira or the Protein Powder Hashira.
As off-putting as his character is likely to be to some, as soon as he enters a battle, he’s all enterprise, meting out some actually spectacular strategies that go away his opponents reeling. Moreover, he has a harem of three wives, so he should provide one thing worthwhile to maintain them round. He does have very good hair, admittedly.
8. Maine (Cyberpunk: Edgerunners)
Our Maine man.
If mentorship from Yamamoto or Tengen didn’t catch your fancy, maybe you’d elect to strike up a dialog with this hulking veteran as a substitute? Maine is a proponent of the ‘powerful however honest’ model of management, teetering someplace between assertive and crazed as he throws himself headlong into the fray.
Regardless of his relationship with Dorio, we can’t guarantee you {that a} romance with Maine shall be something lower than traumatic, as he regularly loses himself to the pains of being a cyberpunk. Might your affection be simply what he must return to a humble lifetime of domestication?
It’s fairly unlikely, however the visible of Maine doing family chores is sufficient to make it value attempting. We’re inclined to consider he’s lower than adept at dusting, although we must see it first-hand earlier than having the ability to make a closing name.
7. Hyoma Chigiri (Bluelock)
Upon first assembly the reserved Hyoma Chigiri as a part of Crew Z, chances are you’ll be excused for questioning why precisely he certified as one of many hottest soccer skills within the nation.
He retains to himself for essentially the most half, brooding quietly within the nook and refusing to disclose in his strengths. As soon as he has been sufficiently motivated, nevertheless, he unshackles himself from all worry and doubt, blitzing down the pitch at a breakneck pace.
Simply by working quick for just a few seconds, he has already surpassed Igarashi, making a beeline instantly for our hearts. He’s fairly and non-threatening, and I like that in a person. If you happen to’re not offered fairly but, his Japanese voice actor, Souma Saitou, was additionally the one who introduced Cranium-face Bookseller Honda-san to life — commendable and highly effective!!
6. Wakana Gojou (My Costume-Up Darling)
David Lauren as soon as mentioned of his father Ralph’s vogue empire that it’s “not about material; it’s about desires.”
Wakana Gojou is a gifted younger man who understands this mindset, deftly working behind the scenes to make Marin Kitagawa’s visions develop into actuality. His eye for element and meticulous craftsmanship permits him to create some actually fantastic artistic endeavors, morphing Marin from an on a regular basis excessive schooler to a magical woman, succubus, and extra. No, it’s not bizarre; cease me like that.
Gojou is only a calming determine to have round typically, supportive and clever past his years. He’s fairly versatile in his artisan work, having crafted Hina dolls from a younger age. Searching for a stand-up man or some gifted fingers? Get you a person who can do each.
5. Dabi (My Hero Academia)
Look, they’re not all going to be Gojous. Typically you desire a sweetheart to carry your hand and let you know the whole lot’s going to be okay. Different occasions, you desire a maniac who will burn your hand to a crisp and snarl that nothing will ever be okay. I’m not right here to kink-shame.
Ever since his debut in season 2 of My Hero Academia, Dabi has given the impression that he is aware of greater than he’s letting on. His highly effective flames might rival the harmful pressure of Shigaraki himself, and but, this sinister foe defers for essentially the most half, content material to stay on par with bumbling colleagues like Twice and Mr. Compress.
Within the newest arc, all of his intentions had been made clear, and Dabi dropped a bombshell that left the Hero neighborhood reeling. He additionally revealed that he’s a superb dancer, which is a vital high quality to have in a husbando. If we had been writing a sleazy journal article (as a substitute of a sleazy web site article), we’d surmise that this unhealthy boy was scorching stuff in 2022.
4. Loid Forger (Spy x Household)
Although Agent Twilight wasn’t capable of full his mission of claiming a spot on the rostrum, he’ll be one to regulate transferring ahead. The person generally known as Loid Forger is strikingly good-looking, carrying an charisma that’s surpassed solely by his genius-level mind.
He’ll enter any scenario absolutely ready for each attainable final result, whether or not it’s a daring act of espionage or a brunch with work colleagues. Really, the primary motive he didn’t rank larger on this listing of husbandos comes right down to the information that his entire demeanor is a entrance.
Sure, the unhappy reality is that Loid will in all probability love you and go away you, disappearing out of your life with out a lot as a farewell notice. Is it well worth the eventual heartbreak for just a few fleeting moments of thrill? That basically is determined by your disposition, although frankly, should you survived a date with Dabi, falling in love with Loid is relatively risk-free.
3. Satoru Gojo (Jujutsu Kaisen)
Alright, we’re dishonest a little bit bit on this one! 2022 was a whole agonizing 12 months between Jujutsu Kaisen seasons, nevertheless, its first characteristic movie, Jujutsu Kaisen 0, noticed a western launch in March. As such, Gojo-sensei makes the reduce by way of technicality. You’re in all probability not complaining anyway, however we wished to elucidate our tomfoolery.
Although the film’s model of Gojo was but to determine his fabulous partnership with Yuji Itadori, he was each bit the carefree, irreverent goofball we all know and love. We had been capable of get additional perception on his previous — specifically, his rivalry with Getou — and noticed him take Yuuta Okkotsu underneath his wing.
The actual fact of the matter is Jujutsu Kaisen’s solid steals the present in any medium, so even lower than two hours of Gojo was sufficient for him to climb up the rankings. We’re so damned prepared for season 2 to blow us away with all of the devastating pressure of Hole Purple; we are able to’t contact Gojo instantly, however we simply know he’ll contact our hearts all the identical.
2. Aki Hayakawa (Chainsaw Man)
The aloof Mr. High-knot was capable of stroll a high quality line in Chainsaw Man, visibly unyielding for essentially the most half whereas additionally exhibiting that he had a coronary heart of gold beneath that chilly veneer.
Aki is as business-like a protagonist as you will notice in anime, calling out orders and setting about any process with calculated duty. His tragic upbringing has rendered his self-care out of date, and on this manner, crossing paths with Denji and Energy was maybe precisely what he wanted to heal his frayed nerves.
Alas, so far as availability for husbando duties goes, you’d finest stop whilst you’re forward. Aki is all in regards to the job, carrying a laser focus set squarely on slaying the Gun Satan. Your finest guess is to make a contract with some type of Love Satan, bewitching him along with your charms at the price of… a lung or one thing equally as devastating.
1. Arataka Reigen (Mob Psycho 100)
If you happen to polled ten individuals on whether or not Arataka Reigen would come out of this contest because the #1 husbando, you’d in all probability solely obtain one vote (from Reigen himself, sporting a intelligent disguise).
Digging a little bit bit deeper into this bumbling braggart reveals a genuinely good man who makes use of his present for the gab as a way of compensating for his personal shortcomings. He’s additionally fairly fond of cash, and swindling gullible prospects is a good way of lining his pockets with yen. It doesn’t harm to be enterprising, in spite of everything.
Though Reigen’s relationship with Mob as his psychic information and non secular instructor has at all times been rooted in deception, when all appears misplaced, he’s the one one as much as the problem of setting issues proper. The true mark of a husbando isn’t essentially somebody who fights battles as a result of they count on to win however a person who fights them merely as a result of they have to be fought.
With all that being mentioned, I might simply be swayed to award the highest spot to God Dimple’s dummy thicc cheeks. I’m not a proud man, only one who appreciates a golden booty.
