Male Moeblobs

Well, I was talking more about the persona but I guess you could take the real one too.

@Nyktos: I thought Mytho was somewhat moe, but his huge blankly staring eyes were also a little bit creepy.

Aren't male moe just Keet?

No. Moe is not an inherent trait of a character. Please attempt to understand this.

Do female find Keet characters moe?

I'm sure some do.

It is a fact that Kaiji is indeed moe.

Many viewers find Keet characters Moe because they are most of the time cuddly and sociable. On the other hand, I have heard Troubled, but Cute / Jerkass Façade types be described as Moe. So yes, it depends on the viewers

I don't suppose you actually read what Keet is right? Keet is the super gabby, hyperactive good chance they will drive you nuts little brother type. Cute Shotaro Boy would be Moe as well as a few adults and teens.

So? Maybe someone finds that moe. No accounting for taste, after all.

OK so this might sound hella weird or creepy, but I'm pretty sure Chris Colfer counts as one, despite:

1. Being a real life 3D human being and not an anime character.

2. Being 21 years old, even if he is actually Older Than He Looks by like 5 or so years.

3. Looking like a Bishounen now rather than a Cute Shotaro Boy post-growth spurt.

But seriously he's so hyper, and nearly everything he does and says is so cute or silly that I can't help but go "D'awww..." and want to give the guy a big old hug sometimes, even though his character often gets on my nerves and he's probably like a head taller than me. Having ungodly huge Puppy-Dog Eyes, being a massive nerd over things like Star Wars and Mario, and sometimes acting like a male Deadpan Loli definitely add to the Moe appeal.

Tiger from Tiger And Bunny hasn't been mentioned yet. He's middle-aged, but just so damn cute in his own unique way.

^ What's that from?

Otome Wa Boku Ni Koishiteru (manga) I don't remember a scene like that from the anime or visual novel.

Yup, that's Mizuho-onee-sama.

Having watched the newest episode of Tiger and Bunny, I can safely say that Keith Goodman is one of the most Moe characters in anime ever. Probably even more so than Kotetsu.

But he doesn't even have a beard made of kittens! How can you be more moe than a dude who has a kitty beard?

Empty bench + dog > kitten beard

I don't care what anybody else says, when it comes to moe males, Masa-sama (no, not that one) is where it's at.

The way he shied away from the girls at the brothel when they offered their "services" was so kawaii, and he has a lot of other moe traits too, like being clumsy and being a competent swordsman, but not having the confidence or will to actually use his skills.

LOL. I only ever use that word in a joking way and would never use it in a serious conversation. But for a guy, I found Masa to be one of the cutest personality-wise. Does that come with a desire to protect him? Maybe.

There are artists who simply draw the most endearing girl possible and then say, "Nope, that's a guy you're looking at."

Do those characters count?
