Random 'Fighting Narcissists' Who Are Way Too Into Themselves (15 items)

• 

  (#1) Yumichika Ayasegawa

  • Bleach, Bleach: Memories of Nobody, Bleach: The DiamondDust Rebellion, Bleach: Fade to Black

  Yumichika Ayasegawa is a loyal and dedicated member of the Gotei 13 - but he's also really, really into himself, and to aesthetics in general. Once, he couldn't bring himself to fight his own evil clone because the idea of attacking someone so gorgeous was too painful to consider. 

  Depending on which part of Bleach he appears in, Yumichika can appear to be a more complex character whose arrogance covers up deeper insecurities - but at other times, he's there as comic relief.

  (#10) Asuka Langley Soryu

  • Neon Genesis Evangelion, Evangelion: 2.0 You Can (Not) Advance, Evangelion: 3.0 You Can (Not) Redo, Neon Genesis Evangelion: Death & Rebirth, The End of Evangelion

  While the 'fighting narcissist' trope tends to skew toward the masculine, there are some female examples. One of those is Asuka Langley Soryu, a young mecha pilot whose overblown pride is a mask for deep insecurities. But the complexity of her character doesn't make it any less noteworthy when she's going on about how beautiful and talented she is, and flying into a rage whenever anything threatens her inflated self-perception.

  (#2) Yuga Aoyama - 'My Hero Academia'

  Yuga Aoyama looks like he was taken out of a '90s shojo anime and plopped into a modern shonen. His quirk allows him to shoot glittery lasers out of his navel, which isn't exactly glamorous considering the fact that the ability can make him seriously sick to his stomach.

  But Yuga's attitude makes up for it. He makes references to his own good looks on the regular, uses roses to emphasize his points, and sprinkles random French into his speech for the sake of 'elegance.'

  Is he adorable? Yes. Is he a lot? Also yes.

  (#12) Hotohori - 'Fushigi Yugi'

  If anybody has the right to a little bit of vanity, it's Hotohori, the emperor of Konan. Not only is he literal royalty, he's also a powerful warrior and one of the members of the Suzaku Seven. What's more, by the standards of '90s shojo anime, he's beautiful. Hotohori is extremely cool, and absolutely knows it - he says so explicitly, more than once.

  While his confidence isn't exactly unearned, it does lead him to repeatedly ask Miaka out when he knows she isn't interested - a habit he thankfully drops later in the series.

  (#11) Jack Atlas

  • Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's, Yu-Gi-Oh!: Bonds Beyond Time

  In a sea of absolutely absurd Yu-Gi-Oh! characters, Jack Atlas is at the top of the list. He's confident about his dueling skills, but he's also obsessed with his appearance. That's why he wears a white trench coat while living in an exploded slum - and somehow manages to keep it spotless. As far as Jack is concerned, he's absolutely perfect, and while he gets a little annoyed at the women trailing around behind him at all times, he also doesn't seem to see any reason why they wouldn't naturally do that.

  (#8) Kirsch Vermillion - 'Black Clover'

  As a nobleman of the House of Vermillion, Kirsch likes to flaunt his royalty - and his good looks. Even his magical powers are visually pleasing to the eye as he can manipulate and produce cherry blossoms. He tends to look down on those with a lower status than him, often treating them with disgust or dismissing them entirely. But despite his egotism, his powers and skills prove useful as he is a remarkable vice-captain of Coral Peacock, bearing most of the work that his sleeping captain fails to do.
