What kind of GAP MOE gets you every single time?

[anzxmxxn]

I love male characters who initially seem like they don't need love at all, but after meeting the MC, they turn out to be the ones who need it the most. Plus for me when they have a tragic backstory
The gap between their rough, intimidating exterior and how completely lovestruck and affectionate they become after meeting the MC and story goes. Seeing a tough guy turn into an absolute sweetheart for the person he loves gets me every single time

It always gets me when a more serious, cold, and dangerous/rough looking LI turns out to be a huge softie for animals or have some really cute hobbies. Every time it just makes me go "awwwwwwww " I love it sm because it can say a lot about their character

I love when a nonchalant and quiet character gets all excited about their favorite interests! Seeing them go from a stone-faced statue to an over-animated happy mess is just *chef's kiss*. My favorite example right now is maomao from The Apothecary's Diary.

any tough guy persona showing affection in their own way...tsunderes are my everything

For me is definitely the Li who is a leader and in high statues but he show his soft and cuteness to female lead. Thats the one I feel the most more. He acts like cool and compose in front of other characters because he is the leader. But behind the scene he is worry about it and onky shows calm and cute faces by cuddling. Its like their voice changes during that shift too. I love how voice actor show that character voice can be change based on tense environment to comfort zone.

I know right!! LI who loves animal are the best. Imagine how much they'll love MC when they go soft even for animals

Yessss, especially if it's a really small animal! It says so much when they're kind and loving towards the weak, like you can just tell they have a heart of gold and that they're a good person inside, and it's just super cute

OMG OMG FELLOW SEIYA FAN!!! I freaking LOVE seiya I NEED the fandisk to release already </3333
Literally, he had me giggling and kicking my feet because of how much of a hopeless romantic and how cute he is. Gosh the FLUFF in his route, as I went in expecting him to be a kuudere or something, but I was so pleasantly proven wrong.
Now I gotta try out uchronia, its been sitting in my backlog for quite a while

hard on the outside yet soft on the inside. deliquents who turn out to just be misunderstood based on how the look or dress. i just love when the mc sees who the guy is for who he is and treats him better than how others are, giving him the love that he needs. gets me in the feels every time

I AGREE!! delinquents gap moe are one of my fav.
I think delinquents often have a hard time expressing or accepting affection because maybe their painful past experiences, and they're so used to being strong for hiding their vulnerable side that they don't want anyone to see it.

And when the MC finally accepts them for who they truly are UGHH the amount of love and affection they give back to the MC is just one of the sweetest things ever

I love men who have a cute side; I find myself falling for someone when a character who doesn't seem that way reveals a cute side. I'm particularly weak for the "tsundere" type—when they finally show their affectionate side, it really gets to me.

Oh man, the 'Cool/Perfect on the outside, but totally flustered and clumsy just for MC' gets me EVERY SINGLE TIME!

When a character who seems calm, collected, or stoic suddenly blushes, stammers, or shows his vulnerable/needy side when it comes to the heroine... my heart just melts. That contrast between his everyday composure and his raw emotion is unmatched!

 

[nerim-w]

+1 on the delinquents with INSANE gap moe, oh my goodness guys ive been listening to some yakuza CDs and seeing this intimidating, tattooed, ore-sama type guy who only knows violence immediately become a soft puppy for the heroine and treat her with the most gentle care... THAT AINT A YAKUZA THATS MY HUSBAND

THIS CD by Irodori Kazuya is the peakest cd ive ever listened to and genuinely one of my favourites ever!! Istg it lives rent free in my head... It was the first time ive head of this VA taking on a more ore-sama type voice and he sounds SO intimidating at first and then gets really tsundere before acting like a little softie... ugh this CD was so sickeningly sweet I actually dieddd

I also really like this one by Tominaga Shuhei, ML mistakes heroine for a mistress of some important person and captures her but falls in love with her at first sight!! Both of these are shared here on AS as well!!

 

[pyontai]

I join the crowd for cold/though/yankee/yakuza type that turns soft for his girl. It's especially good when you see them blush gets me every time
