The Underdogs

Lillith wrote me one fine April afternoon, saying "Think of all those poor, CUTE guys out there who just can't seem to win!!!" I couldn't agree more. The Underdogs is the perfect category for the cute-but-clueless characters of anime.

Not Quite Standard Disclaimer:
The images here were gleaned from many different sites--wherever I happened to see a good picture of the Leading Man in question...In some cases I had to chop him out of a bigger picture, brighten the image itself--anything to get HIS solo mug up there. If I'm using your image and you don't like what I've done to it, tell me about it and I'll take it out. Remember: all images here belong solely to their creators.

All guys are plugged in ALPHABETICALLY per page, and in the order I received the suggestions, to avoid the reams of hate-mail I can imagine for inadvertently maligning *your* Leading Man.

          No one seems to like him, why? He's the funniest guy in the series, even when he's trying to be serious...

Ahh, indeed. I especially like the way everybody tried to hide the fact that the demoness he's in love with is actually Hiei's long lost sister!

          Ataru is Lum's 'Darling' and a complete pervert. He's always asking women for dates and hitting on women. He's a bit of an idiot, also. But that's only on the outside. Deep inside Ataru is a very caring, very noble, and very inteligent young man who is deeply in love with Lum. He just as trouble admiting his love for his wife, Lum. One day Ataru will admit the truth. He may seem like a stupid pervert who rejects Lum. Deep inside, he's different. Ataru is really a sweet, caring and intelligent young man who loves his wife, Lum, more than anything in the universe.
