History Main / MrFanservice

* WebAnimation/HazbinHotel: Angel Dust is a PrettyBoy, flirts with everyone he finds attractive, dresses in short shorts, shows off a lot of cleavage, and even dresses in sexy clothes while dancing as a stripper. This is part of his job.

** Alastor is the radio demon with attractive looks such as a slim face, shoulder length hair, and a snazzy suit. He’s also quite charismatic with a interesting voice and true CreepyAwesome form.

The [[DistaffCounterpart Spear Counterpart]] of MsFanservice, Mr. Fanservice provides similar eye candy for viewers who are into men. [[EstrogenBrigade It can be an effective way to bring in female viewers, even in a series directed towards males.]]

** Doug's other character, ''WebVideo/AskThatGuyWithTheGlasses'', is just as fun. A [[DepravedBisexual Depraved Omnisexual]] who'll "go down on anyone and anything", does porn movies, will give blowjobs to his pipe, doesn't think het incest is kinky enough and practically embodies EvilIsSexy.

In order for a guy to qualify as Mr. Fanservice, '''''just being attractive isn't enough'''''. He needs to be shown in scenes intended as sexual fanservice. He can have anything between muscular limbs, broad shoulders and/or sculpted abs (between six-packs and eight-packs). The muscles can be either lean or chiseled; as long as you can see them, they count. He may also have {{long|HairedPrettyboy}} [[BarbarianLonghair hair]] though it's not required. Most of the time, he has medium length hair, a swimmer's build, a smooth chiseled chest, washboard abs and [[ShirtlessScene no shirt on]]. However, if he's wearing a shirt, it's usually [[SleevesAreForWimps sleeveless]] or left [[IntimateOpenShirt totally unbuttoned]].

* ''Fanfic/TheBoltChronicles'': An InUniverse example occurs in "The Baseball Game," by which time Bolt and Mittens have become a romantic couple. When Penny dresses the dog in a baseball cap and jersey, Mittens finds him even more attractive than usual -- sufficiently so that she comes on strongly to Bolt and they dash off for a lovemaking session.

* Photogenic young Congressman Aaron Schock seemed on a meteoric rise on being elected to represent Illinois's 18th district in 2008. The youngest member of the House, Schock drew attention for a spate of proposed legislation, prominent opposition to the 2009 bailout, and widely-circulated photographs of his premium six-pack abs and generally Congressman-atypical physique. His status as politician of the future derailed dramatically in 2014 when he was accused of misappropriating public and campaign funds for lavish trips and events. He resigned in 2015, was indicted in 2016 by a federal grand jury, and eventually agreed to a suspension of charges in exchange for good behavior and $100,000 in restitution. (His reputation as an arch-conservative, anti-LGBTQ crusader took a further hit in March 2020 when he finally came out as gay after years of rumors Schock had previously adamantly denied.)
** Mostly averted by Schock's contemporary, House Speaker Paul Ryan. Though a fitness obsessive known for championing the [=P90X=] body-sculpting workout, fanservice-y photographs of the Congressman were not a major phenomenon while he was in office.

* Because there are strict limits on how much bare skin may be exposed during a figure skating competition, [[https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x59b5x8 the deep V-neck on Nicolas Nadeau's Elvis Presley costume]] is about as sexy as it can get for male figure skaters. You can even see his chest hairs while he's waiting for his score in the kiss & cry. The revealing part of his outfit is based on Music/ElvisPresley's fashion sense and it reflects that the King of Rock 'n' Roll was a sex symbol. Not surprisingly, Nadeau himself would be regarded as one of the [[{{Hunk}} hunkiest]] men's singles skaters in the sport after this performance. He's not obligated to show off his muscular arms and shoulders during his "[[Music/{{KISS}} I Was Made for Lovin' You]]" [[https://streamable.com/qw27c exhibition number,]] but he's happy to provide eye candy.
* Male gymnasts often promote themselves this way, officially or otherwise. Since men's gymnastics place great emphasis on upper body strength, male gymnasts tend to be ''quite'' ripped, and they're not above showing it off with shirtless pics on social media, especially since gymnastics is one of the few sports where the men receive far less attention (including [[MoneyDearBoy sponsors and endorsement deals]]) than the women.
* Rugby players, particularly those from Wales and South Africa, frequently love to demonstrate their sculpted physiques.

[[folder:Tabletop Games]]
* ''[[TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons D&D 3e]]'' had [[http://www.wizards.com/dnd/images/ph35_gallery/PHB35_PG51_WEB.jpg Hennet]] the [[HotWitch sorcerer]], who [[WalkingShirtlessScene ran around with his sinewy tattooed chest exposed]].
* ''TabletopGame/MutantChronicles'': The official art of Nick Michaels. A TallDarkAndHandsome man with [[LongHairedPrettyBoy long black hair]] and a pouty TroubledButCute expression, wearing [[ManInAKilt a kilt]], and [[HellBentForLeather a leather jacket]] with [[WalkingShirtlessScene nothing beneath]] to better show off his rippling abs. Which fanservice buttons have we not pushed?
** ''TableTopGame/{{Pathfinder}}'' continues Hennet's proud tradition with Sajan the monk and Seltyiel the magus, who both happily expose their toned abs at every opportunity.
* ''TabletopGame/{{Scion}}'' has [[http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/f/fa/ScionHeroCover.jpg Eric Donner]] right on the cover, a red-headed, muscular demigod with extensive tattoos. His pictures in the book (especially his character portrait) usually depict him as shirtless.
* Most, if not all of the Primarchs of TableTopGame/{{Warhammer 40000}} are described as being extremely handsome individuals, if you can get over the fact that they're about twice your height; [[{{Bishonen}} Sanguinius and Fulgrim]] are especially, with both being described as beautiful to the point of severe distraction. Their father, the Emperor of Mankind, is supposed to be the embodiment of the perfect human- although to call him 'intimidating' could be putting it lightly... And he's very, very old. And above such things.

* The second act of ''Theatre/AVeryPotterMusical'' gives us Voldemort in nothing but tights, tap shoes, and a cape. His actor, Joe Walker, in general, is MrFanservice.

** The human main protagonist himself, Ritcher (or whatever the reader chose to call him), gets more chances to show off his good looks than most Visual Novel POV characters do. He has chiseled facial features, a nice tanned skintone, a stubble and long hair he often keeps tied up. when it comes to his phisique, he's fit and decently hairy, to the point where he at one point [[DistractedByMyOwnSexy contemplates how attractive he is in a mirror]] and his eventual boyfriend Lyall certainly agrees he looks stunning. [[spoiler: A testament to how handsome Richter is is the fact that, even after weeks of imprisonment in a miserable cell and, later, days of actual torture, the man manages to come out of it still being an attractive kind of rugged.]]

** When it comes to more {{Twink}}ey male characters, concept art depicts the frail human protagonist Caelan with a fit physique, and the bunny Tryst, who looks muscular but is surrounded by men (and even [[AmazonianBeauty some women]]) who make his figure look downright feminine. then there's a wolf even runtier than Tano, the slender Talisin, who is implied to be something the Bisexual Erof likes about him.

** The "main attraction" himself, [[{{Deuteragonist}} Amicus]] is a very muscular BigBeautifulMan really wearing nothing but a shoulder cape, which covers nothing but half a pectoral, and very tight denim pants that do nothing but accentuate his bulge. This being a Furry a Visual Novel, he also happens to be a large humanoid wolf whose cute and funny expression bring even more appeal to the mix.

** The dragon Zenith is TheBigGuy and easily the most muscular character in the whole Visual Novel, with his abdomen being just slightly chubby enough to be an appealing dad bod. The shirt he wears is obviously too small for him and hides nothing of what's underneath.

* ''[[VisualNovle/Adastra2018 Adastra]]'' features a few, being a [[BaraGenre Bara]] furry Visual Novel where a total of 2 main characters actually have a shirt on.

* Because there are strict limits on how much bare skin may be exposed during a figure skating competition, [[https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x59b5x8 the deep V-neck on Nicolas Nadeau's Elvis Presley costume]] is about as sexy as it can get for male figure skaters. You can even see his chest hairs while he's waiting for his score in the kiss & cry. The revealing part of his outfit is based on Music/ElvisPresley's fashion sense and it reflects that the King of Rock 'n' Roll was a sex symbol.

He's not obligated to show off his muscular arms and shoulders during his "[[Music/{{KISS}} I Was Made for Lovin' You]]" [[https://streamable.com/qw27c exhibition number,]] but he's happy to provide eye candy for the ladies.

* The US Men's Gymnastics Team sometimes market themselves this way. Since men's gymnastics place great emphasis on upper body strength, male gymnasts tend to be ''quite'' ripped, and they're not above showing it off with shirtless pics on social media, especially since gymnastics is one of the few sports where men receive far less attention (including [[MoneyDearBoy sponsors and endorsement deals]]) than women.

He tends to be subjected to ''at least'' one ShirtlessScene, or he can take it a step further by deciding to [[WalkingShirtlessScene forgo a shirt all the time]]--though a Mr. Fanservice can also have zero shirtless scenes. In the BeachEpisode his choice of swimwear is likely to be a [[BrandNameTakeover speedo]] (AKA swim briefs). Just like his aforementioned counterpart, he can wear tight clothing, which shows off his body without baring skin. He can pull off a male version of BareYourMidriff. He can wear anything (or [[CensorSteam nothing]], that works too), as long as these clothes accentuate or reveal his muscles. In an action-driven story, glimpses of his physical assets may also be accomplished via [[ClothingDamage/{{Film}} clothing damage]]. If he wears some sort of [[ManInAKilt skirt-like garment]] the female fans will be prone to ask if he wears anything [[PantyShot underneath it]]. He can also {{gender invert|edTrope}} the ReluctantFanserviceGirl, ShamelessFanserviceGirl, and InnocentFanserviceGirl tropes.

[[folder:Light Novels]]
* ''LightNovel/FateZero'''s 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 [[RomanceGame otome game]] based on Celtic mythology yet?
* ''LightNovel/FullMetalPanic'' has Kurz who used to be a model and is a perverted {{Bishonen}} with long blonde hair counts as does Leonard who is a DudeLooksLikeALady {{Bishonen}} 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.
* ''LightNovel/JigokuNoGoukaDeYakaReTsuzuketaShounen'': 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 WalkingShirtlessScene with his pecs and abs showing. His casual wear [[SleevesAreForWimps shows off his arms]] and clings tightly to his chest to leave little to the imagination.
* ''LightNovel/{{Shimoneta}}'': Oboro is a unique example due to having a woman's face and body[[note]]In the manga, Oboro's pectoral muscles are flat. The anime differs by shaping them to appear like B-cup breasts[[/note]], despite being [[DudeLooksLikeALady biologically male.]] Made more apparent during the end credits of Episode 9, which [[FreezeFrameBonus 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): [[EverybodyWantsTheHermaphrodite "still hit it anyway."]]
* Zelgadis from ''LightNovel/TheSlayers''. He is a CuteMonsterGuy with green-grey skin studded with stones and is rather handsome.
