** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-uoFkrhkbLA Hiiragi]] dates two different women behind his wife's back. When the women find out about his antics, they make sure to [[HumiliationConga humiliate him with different methods so he will be torn up, inside and outside]].

%%* JFK from ''WesternAnimation/CloneHigh''.

* One of the major traits of Elminster Aumar of Shadowdale, the great archwizard from the ''TabletopGame/ForgottenRealms'' setting, is that he'll flirt and/or sleep with just about anything that has two X chromosomes and isn't related to him. Just in [[Literature/TheElminsterSeries his own novel series]] he's bedded humans, elves, a lich, several avatars of a goddess, and a song dragon in human form (and he sired a daughter with that one). The only thing keeping him out of ExtremeOmnisexual is that he's straight.

* Lothario from the tragic play ''Theatre/TheFairPenitent'' is a heartless seducer who seduces and then abandons the female lead Calista, which drives Calista to suicide. As a result, the term "lothario" is often used for men who behave selfishly and irresponsibly in their sexual relationships with women.

%%* Guiche from ''LightNovel/TheFamiliarOfZero''. Possibly Julio as well, although he tends to have girls pursuing him.

* Elinalise of ''LightNovel/MushokuTenseiJoblessReincarnation'' is a fairly positive female example. Being afflicted with a curse that makes her physically need sex and an unusually active libido to match it, she has perfected the art of soliciting men for one night stands. She doesn't even need to speak the same language to get what she's after.
* Fictional comedian Monti Tree from ''Literature/MyScrewups'' fit this trope to a T, losing his virginity at 13, to bedding supermodels well into adulthood. [[spoiler: However that all comes to a complete stop when he finds out he had a son he didn't know about.]]
* ''LightNovel/MyNextLifeAsAVillainessAllRoutesLeadToDoom'': Within the original ''Fortune Lover'' scenario, Keith is noted to be quite a playboy due to all the verbal abuse he got from his adoptive mother and sister leaving him starved for affection, and his route in the game has him become a LadykillerInLove. This is averted within the story proper, as Katarina awakening her past life memories leads her to instead act as his CoolBigSis and condition him to always treat women with respect to [[DefiedTrope specifically avoid]] him developing this sort of behavior (which ironically makes him even more popular among the opposite sex than his game counterpart).

* Jin from ''LightNovel/ThePetGirlOfSakurasou'' remains loyal to his childhood friend Misaki, but becomes this instead as he feels unworthy of her.

* Motoyasu from ''LightNovel/TheRisingOfTheShieldHero'' is a brutal subversion. His entire party is made up of beautiful women, and while he believes himself to be a chivalrous KnightInShiningArmor who attracts women due to his good-natured personality, in reality he's a creepy lech ([[NoYay especially towards Filo]]), one of his party members (the evil and manipulative Malty) is only on his side so she can use and manipulate him into screwing over Naofumi, [[spoiler: and none of his party members actually like him, only teaming up with him because of his status as one of the Four Heroes. Eventually, they all abandon him, and his ego is so thoroughly crushed that he becomes a raging misogynist, unable to hear any woman except Filo speak without hearing pig noises.]]

* OlderThanFeudalism: Zeus, king of the Greek pantheon, is depicted this way in Myth/ClassicalMythology. They had [[ValuesDissonance very different values]] from modern Westerners, but note that in actual Greek ''religion'', he wasn't viewed as this. Of course, [[ScrewTheRulesIMakeThem this may have had to do with him being the King of Gods]] and [[AppealToForce having the power]] [[AuthorityEqualsAsskicking that implies]].
** Another theory is that Zeus is something of an AmalgamatedIndividual with the collective dating history of every local thunder god / TopGod ascribed to him (i.e. one thunder god being married to an unrelated fertility goddess becomes Zeus having kids with his sister Demeter).

SuperTrope to SpiesAreLecherous and ReallyGetsAround.

** ComicBook/{{Gambit}}, who is largely considered to be a reformed example, having given up his whoring ways since meeting Rogue. Until they broke up anyway. This is exaggerated in one of Gambit's stand-alone comics. He breaks into an old girlfriend's house in the middle of the night to request a favor and both are confused by the lack of sex.
** ComicBook/{{Wolverine}} has had ''plenty'' of tail in his life, chasing it like a excitable dog, but in his case he actually catches it. A LOT.

** Different versions of Franchise/{{Batman}} have either portrayed him as being with many women or as avoiding most women. A common feature to most versions is that he ends up alone. His public persona as Bruce Wayne is essentially a Casanova, constantly dating and breaking up with multiple women to keep up the RichIdiotWithNoDayJob facade.

* ''Literature/TheSilerianTrilogy'': Zimran is a shameless womanizer who continually seduces, beds and abandons numerous women (much to his cousin Jondalar's disapproval). He eventually [[LadyKillerInLove falls for Elelar]], who is [[LikeGoesWithLike very similar to him]] in terms of her sexual habits (yet with different motives).

* ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamTheWitchFromMercury'': Shaddiq Zenneli evokes this trope, as a handsome, flirtatious young man whose closest followers are all young women. While introducing the [[DuelsDecideEverything rules of dueling]] to the protagonist, he mentions you can even stake women on their outcome (something his fellow Dueling Committee member Guel says only Shaddiq would think of doing). However, his relationship to the women he surrounds himself with appears to be just friends and [[AmazonBrigade allies in battle]], and in truth he's a LadykillerInLove.

For the juvenile version -- all of the above without the sex -- see KidAnova. Contrast the SerialRomeo (who falls in love with a long succession of women, one at a time and for reasonable periods). If the guy is actually only ''rumored'' to be a Casanova and has no evidence onscreen, it's the UrbanLegendLoveLife. If he develops feelings for one of his conquests ([[ILoveYouBecauseICantControlYou or someone who refuses him]]), he's a LadykillerInLove. See MoreFriendsMoreBenefits for when the mechanics of a game encourage the player character to act this way. If he's malicious, he may be an IntentionalHeartbreaker.

* Fictional comedian Monti Tree from ''My Screwups'' fit this trope to a T, losing his virginity at 13, to bedding supermodels well into adulthood. [[spoiler: However that all comes to a complete stop when he finds out he had a son he didn't know about.]]

* Jimmy (Snowman) in ''Oryx and Crake'' and ''The Year of the Flood'' by Margaret Atwood, is this and also a harbors a years-long [[LadykillerInLove romantic obsession]] with the same girl (then woman) as his sociopathic genius best friend, which leads to [[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt trouble]].

%%* Guiche from ''LightNovel/TheFamiliarOfZero''. Possibly Julio as well, although he tends to have girls pursuing him.

* Elinalise of ''LightNovel/MushokuTenseiJoblessReincarnation'' is a fairly positive female example. Being afflicted with a curse that makes her physically need sex and an unusually active libido to match it, she has perfected the art of soliciting men for one night stands. She doesn't even need to speak the same language to get what she's after.

* Jin from ''LightNovel/ThePetGirlOfSakurasou'' remains loyal to his childhood friend Misaki, but becomes this instead as he feels unworthy of her.
* Akio Ohtori and Touga Kiryuu from ''Anime/RevolutionaryGirlUtena'' use, manipulate and abuse women and men alike using in great part their sex appeal for MoreThanMindControl effect. Then [[spoiler:Akio does it to Touga, establishing him as a sort of Alpha Casanova.]]\\\
Ruka Tsuchiya counts as well. He takes a HandsOnApproach with the female fencing club members, dates and beds [[spoiler:Shiori, whom he later utterly humiliates]], and is very forceful with [[spoiler:Juri, despite the fact that he's supposedly trying to help her break free of her self-destructive cycle]].

* Motoyasu from ''LightNovel/TheRisingOfTheShieldHero'' is a brutal subversion. His entire party is made up of beautiful women, and while he believes himself to be a chivalrous KnightInShiningArmor who attracts women due to his good-natured personality, in reality he's a creepy lech ([[NoYay especially towards Filo]]), one of his party members (the evil and manipulative Malty) is only on his side so she can use and manipulate him into screwing over Naofumi, [[spoiler: and none of his party members actually like him, only teaming up with him because of his status as one of the Four Heroes.

** Starfox of Comicbook/TheAvengers. It's suggested in ''ComicBook/SheHulk'' that he's [[spoiler: an inadvertent rapist who unconsciously uses his psychic powers to get women into bed]], but the canonicity of ''ComicBook/SheHulk'' is sometimes dubious. It's been firmly established what his powers are and how much control he has over them; ''ComicBook/SheHulk'' just pointed out UnfortunateImplications that already existed. However, in the case where Starfox was [[spoiler: accused of being a rapist, it was revealed this was not true. He has not used his powers to get women. The woman who accused him did so to try and cover up the affair since she was married.]]

** Comicbook/IncredibleHulk. No, really! Have you seen how many children he has with multiple women? ''Three'', so far, with a suspected fourth running around. As Red She-Hulk [[spoiler: who is actually Betty Ross Banner]] commented after learning the Hulk had been married to not one, but two [[GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe hot alien]] warrior queens;

* The title character of ''Comicbook/{{Nikolai Dante}}'' has sex with every attractive woman he meets except for [[{{action girl}} Elena Kurakin]]. His half-brother, Andreas Romanov, does much the same, but secretly feels his life is empty because he hasn't accomplished anything of real value. Lulu, Andreas' sister and Nikolai's half-sister, is a female version who is [[{{the vamp}} also into weird BDSM]]; refreshingly, there isn't any particular stigma attached to Lulu's appetites, and she and Andreas are two of the nicer Romanovs.

* Lapeño in ''Series/FurTV'' UpToEleven, he even gets commited in a sex addicts' clinic (and yes, he's a puppet).

** One of the scientist's at Project Skin Horse, Gerda, describes herself as [[UpToEleven Kinsey Seven]], but she still drops everything to go watch Tip [[RatedMForManly mud-wrestle]] with HuskyRusskie Konstantin outside the office building.[[http://skin-horse.com/comic/todays-comic-351/]]

** ComicBook/{{Gambit}}, who is largely considered to be a reformed example, having given up his whoring ways since meeting Rogue. Until they broke up anyway. This is exaggerated in one of Gambit's stand-alone comics. He breaks into an old girlfriend's house in the middle of the night to request a favor and both are confused by the lack of sex.

** [[ComicBook/UltimateXMen Ultimate Wolverine]]: Magneto gave Wolverine many missions of infiltration and killing in the past. He has an habit of holding the kill (and then escaping) when he meets a girl that he wants to have sex with. Magneto got used to those "delays", and let him be, because he was still the best hitman at his disposal.

* Josh from ''Series/TheMagicians''. Even though he's a HollywoodNerd to the core, he's charismatic enough that he has just as many confirmed sex partners as his more conventionally-attractive castmates.
