Manlyest Manga/Anime Character?

Kenshiro and Jotaro are so far above everyone it isn't even a contest.

Damn straight. By themselves they could make every other character mentioned in this thread their bitch.

Jotaro/Kamina.

I don't even have to say anything else, do I? 'Possibly the sexiest ship in the history of ever' just doesn't sound cool enough, y'know?

I've read (some of) and watched (all of) Jojos Bizarre Adventure Part 3. I'm currently torrenting it. Jotaro can't win another manly man's trust by flexing (that I know of). Armstrong can. Still, could you imagine if they were all in one room? everyone on the planet not in that room would go there and blow them, they're that manly.

Also, Dafoe...

Lordgenome. I mean, his manliness can destroy infinite energy. His manliness is beyond infinite!

PIP BERNADOTTE TAUGHT ALL OF THEM EVERYTHING THEY KNOW ABOUT MANLY!

^^ Lordgenome's manliness can turn an attack with the force of the universe into A GIANT ****ING DRILL!

I have to agree with whoever said Armstrong. His manliness has been passed down the Armstrong line for generations!

@Furiko Maru: I see your Jotaro/Kamina and raise you a Jotaro/Kamina/Kenshiro.

Whitebeard

I vote Toriko. There's nothing manlier than having a house made out of food.

Right now I'm caught between Lordgenome and Kenshiro.

Lordgenome because of the aforementioned "turn all the energy into the universe into an attack", beating up Gurren with his bare hands, and this.

However, Kenshiro is the archetype of the anime Manly Man, and without him, none of the others would be around today.

So it's a toss up.

The badass founder of Team Dai-Gurren: THE MYGHTY KAMINA-SAMA!!!

And lets not forget his aniki: "I'M ME!!! SIMON THE DIGGER!!! MY DRILL IS THE DRILL THET CREATES THE HEAVENS!!!"

Who wants some GUTS!?

'ATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATA!!!!'

Lucy... IMHO manlier than most men.

And last but not least: SON F***ING GOKU!!!

Whitebeard, Kamina, Archer.

The manly Trio

Negi Goddamn Springfield.

"Oh, did I just get speared through my left shoulder with a designer stone pillar? NEVER MIND THAT, I STILL HAVE TO FULFILL MY DAILY QUOTA OF FACE PUNCHING!'

You cannot ignore his girth!

Master Asia. Enough said.

Kotomine Kirei, Cu Chulainn.

Speaking of Negima, Jack Rakan can flex his muscles so hard it shatters a pocket dimension.

@A Xavier B: Pfffft. His sister is like ten times manlier than he will ever be.

Also if we're on the subject of FMA, how about Fullmetal himself? I always thought he was pretty manly. He proves "manly" doesn't necessarily mean "tall".

Oh also Mustang. Playing with fire is very manly.

If guys who play with fire are manly, what about the ones who don't look at explosions?

(Not anime/manga related, but...)

Saya's Dad in Highschool Of The Dead.

Also, Chiyo's Dad. Seriously. Think about it.

Norio Wakamoto's voice? Check.

Can he go faster than a speeding car without breaking a sweat? Check.

Bulletproof? Check.

Makes the rules of reality his bitches? Check.

Able to break through and into the Pink Bishōjo Ghetto? Check.

Deep in your heart, you know it's true.

^YES. Any character voiced by Norio Wakamoto, really. Except Onsokumaru.

I'm going to throw the collective Jojos from Jojos Bizarre Adventure in here, with special emphasis on Jotaro. I mean, his "ORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORA" is legendary, and he was able to defeat "ZA WARUDO!"

Also Kogarashi. So manly that his brain is USB compatible.

So manly that his brain is USB-compatible

What.

Just think of Kagorashi as Kenshiro in a maid outfit, but still somehow just as awesome.

[[Berserk Guts]] because he hasn't been mentioned enough.
