I'm not the kind of person who experiences "love at first sight", and that also goes for fictional characters. So the design is never the primary appeal, especially not as a first impression. It's usually something I start to appreciate later as I get to know the character. That being said, I LOVE LOVE LOVE his hair. I love his pretty eyes. I love his square eyebrows and his sideburns. I love his soft yet defined jawline. I love his resting bitch face. I love his stocky build, especially his legs. He has the perfect amounts of cuteness, masculine beauty and just a hint of femininity.
Ah, anyway... I do think the main appeal is his character. The way he seems like an asshole the first time you meet him, which then turns out to be a facade that crumbles away to reveal a total softie... The way he slowly opens up until he trusts you enough to show his vulnerable emotions that no other person has ever seen before... It feels all so striking, so intimate and personal, it just went straight into my heart. And then there's many other aspects of his personality that I love: he's a bit of a goofball, he's sometimes a little clueless, he can be a little prickly and feisty, he wants to be headstrong and independent, yet he clings to you because he's secretly scared of losing you, he's happy and optimistic despite all the terrible things that happened to him... I could probably go on forever. There's also the fact that he is shown to have actual physical contact with (You)/the MC - which seems like a small, meaningless detail, but was basically something never seen before in the whole mainline series, as sad as that is, lol. But I think it made me realise that I really, REALLY like him. And here we are, almost 2 years later, and I'm still obsessed.
