City of what now?
- In Hilary McKay's Casson Family Series, there is a sizable selection. Tom, Indigo, Darling Michael, and even Bill Casson, so much so that Sarah lampshades this on Rose's blog because of the Estrogen Brigade that Bill gathers with an Even the Guys Want Him statement used to drive his fangirls off.
- Tall, dark and handsome Louis from the Charlie Parker Series is constantly the subject of paragraphs describing how incredibly attractive he is, often in contrast to his short, aging, unattractive partner Angel. A flashback to his and Angel's first meeting, when he comes out of the shower dripping wet with only a small towel protecting his modesty, is particularly notable. In universe, he constantly has waitresses and secretaries hitting on him, and is easily able to flirt information out of women when necessary.
- Dora Wilk Series has some. As narrator, Dora, gets more and more infatuated with Miron, we're getting more and more descriptions of how handsome he is. Then there's Baal, who becomes Dora's good friend. When she's Dreaming of Things to Come, her dream starts with Baal banging a girl and description, while not being porn-like, is very... informative about him. Spoofed, though, when girl ends up assassinating him.
- In The Dresden Files, every book in which Thomas Raith (an incubus) makes an appearance will have a passage of varying length describing exactly how physically gorgeous he is, in addition to the supernatural incubus influence. It's actually a serious problem for him when he tries to be a Friendly Neighbourhood Vampire and get a normal job, as his female colleagues keep (literally) jumping on him no matter how hard he tries to dissuade them, and when he's caught the Double Standard causes his manager to assume he's the instigator and fire him. This happens repeatedly, with him getting increasingly fed up of being fired and not being able to feed properly without harming anyone until he eventually gets a job pretending to be a gay hairdresser, where he can safely feed through the slight but near-constant physical contact without harming anyone.
- Fate/Zero: Lancer, Diarmuid ua Duibhne, which is an actual power of his thanks to his cursed beauty mark (which causes him tons of problems both in the original myth and in the show). The Einzbern Consultation Room short did not let this go un-lampshaded.Zecchan: Why isn't there an otome game based on Celtic mythology yet?
- Full Metal Panic!:
- Kurz who used to be a model and is a perverted Bishōnen with long blonde hair counts as does Leonard who is a Dude Looks Like a Lady Bishōnen with long silver hair and wears nice suits.
- Sosuke Sagara is definitely the ultimate example for this show, though. He gets the most shirtless scenes, and in general is the one who is used when someone needs to look sexy.
- A few Harry Potter characters qualify.
- Cedric Diggory, whose good looks bordered on being a running gag during his time in the series. The fact that he's a total sweetheart (to the point that he tried to forfeit a Quidditch match after his team already won) certainly helps. Even infamously whiny ghost girl Moaning Myrtle took notice. Too bad he dies at the end of the book.
- Sirius Black was once this in his youth, though all those years imprisoned in Azkaban for a crime he didn't commit robbed him of that (Harry observes that there are some vestiges of handsomeness left on his face, though).
- Firenze is a Long-Haired Pretty Boy who doesn't wear shirts and causes Lavender Brown and Parvati Patil to get over their sadness at the sacking of their favorite teacher because they're too busy swooning over him when he acts as her replacement. That said, he's also a centaur.
- Jem in the Hetty Feather series is frequently described as literally Tall, Dark, and Handsome.
- Hornblower from Horatio Hornblower series is Mr Fanservice even on paper. Ladies are known to be attracted to men in uniforms, but Hornblower gets a Shower Scene every now and then, too. As a captain, Hornblower is known to his crew for taking a daily shower by having a couple of sailors at the pump with a hose—even in the Baltic where the water is freezing, and an incident partway through has him moving around the deck without any clothes on for about half an hour. The first time this habit appears chronologically is in Lieutenant Hornblower, where it's described in great detail: the hoseman pumping a stream of water on him, casting a towel aside, standing there naked in the sunshine, an amused crowd gathering to watch and Mr Bush's musings that it might be pleasurable despite being unhealthy.
- Finnick Odair in The Hunger Games, in-universe. Of course, this series being what it is, this trope gets deconstructed when it's revealed that President Snow has been forcing him to prostitute himself because desirability = profit.
- I Did NOT Give That Spider Superhuman Intelligence!: While female metahumans' costumes get a lot of description, per normal for the series, Bismuth’s leather pants (which he gyrates in once or twice), the muscular Neon Rider's spandex costume, and both men's handsome faces are also commented on.
- In Death has Roarke. Kind of a given since it's a romance heavy series, but he actually manages more than one fanservice moment in universe. The most egregious being the time he walked through the background of a video call Eve was having while soaking wet in nothing more than a towel. He was admonished to put some clothes on because he was frying her co-worker's brain. He also showed absolutely no shame whatsoever about this.
- Will Herondale from The Infernal Devices. Big time. His good looks are given a lot of attention.
- Jigoku No Gouka De Yakare Tsuzuketa Shounen: The second half of the first chapter has Flare entirely naked, showing off his muscular body until he puts some clothes on. Even then, the first set of clothes he pilfers leaves him a Walking Shirtless Scene with his pecs and abs showing. His casual wear shows off his arms and clings tightly to his chest to leave little to the imagination.
- Bast from The Kingkiller Chronicle as lampshaded in a comic summary of the novel posted on Rothfuss' blog.
◊ - Alec Scudder in Maurice is an example of this. He's gay, he's up for getting down with Maurice and their relationship doesn't end up with anyone dying.
- In The Mortal Instruments, much attention is given to how attractive Jace is, especially since the viewpoint character is in love with him.
- Nightfall (Series): All vampires are beautiful, but Tristan in particular is described as a Pretty Boy by friends and enemies alike.
- The Old Kingdom trilogy's Touchstone, resident Human Popsicle and possibly long-lost heir to the throne. Features a Dark and Troubled Past and tendency to go berserk when Sabriel is threatened. Better known for his Naked First Impression, and kilt.
- The Power: Tunde, a handsome young man, gets increasingly sexualized and aggressively hit on by women as the gender norms shift to the point that his obituary mentions it.
- Even without a movie, or even an illustration, Garrid still manages to be this for Tales of the Frog Princess.
- Shimoneta: Oboro is a unique example due to having a woman's face and bodynote , despite being biologically male. Made more apparent during the end credits of Episode 9, which briefly shows him fully nude, and Episode 12 where he's forced to wear women's lingerie. On fan art sites, some have said they don't care that he's a guy and would (quote): "still hit it anyway."
- Zelgadis from Slayers. He is a Cute Monster Guy with green-grey skin studded with stones and is rather handsome.
- Orphen from Sorcerer Stabber Orphen. Troubled, but Cute: check, Dark and Troubled Past: check, AND those tight leather pants!
- The Twilight Saga, obviously, has its share:
- A good three-quarters of the book is Bella telling us how perfect and handsome Edward Cullen is.
- Bella's dad lampshades it for Dr. Carlisle Cullen, saying that it is a good thing he's happily married, and that the nurses have trouble concentrating around him.
- In the movies, Jacob (Taylor Lautner) has so many Shirtless Scenes that Edward eventually lampshades it to Bella — not quite a Walking Shirtless Scene, but ...
- Dimitri from Vampire Academy is described as a "god", and his well-toned physique is frequently mentioned.
- In The Wise Man's Fear, Tempi's default costume is a suit of skin-tight "mercenary reds." Of course, he spends a considerable portion of the expedition not wearing a shirt, or entirely naked.
- Reqi in Wise Phuul finds himself showered with attention from both men and women. It doesn't do any good: he's asexual.
