* ''Manga/JojosBizarreAdventure'':
** ''Manga/PhantomBlood'': Robert E. O. Speedwagon, while physically far, ''far'' different from the average Moe, is still considered one due to his devotion and support of [[TheHero Jonathan Joestar]], to the point he's often named Moewagon by the fandom.
** ''Manga/GoldenWind'': Narancia Ghirga, the smallest (but surprisingly, not the youngest) member of Passione who still acts like a kid despite being 17, doing things like chasing frogs with Mista and being bad at math. Although he's far from helpless and has a powerful Stand [[spoiler:and ends up killing no less than four people by the end of Part 5, with even the BigBad nearly succumbing to his Stand]], he's just so wide-eyed and innocent and loves his friends so much that he would die for them. And his past is ''so very, very'' tragic.
