![]() ![]() Leonardo Da Vinci may not be the most ‘Aries’-type character on this list – and his route gets a little more angsty than you might expect from his initial character introduction – but it’s still a lot of fun, and his romantic ending in particular finishes the route with the air of a ‘fairytale’ romance.The localization of his route is exemplary, with a large portion of his humour relying on pop culture references that had to be localized to make sense to an English-speaking audience, rather than translated literally, word-for-word. Sarutobi Sasuke is one of my Ikemen Sengoku faves, and his route is a lot of fun – even just for the comedy.Despite any flaws, obstacles, or plot drama – they just really care about MC, and this simplicity can often be refreshing, especially after a long run of twisted romances and melodrama. Rather than a flirtatious playboy seducing you with their wit and charm, or a possessive yandere enthralling you with their intriguing, dangerous aura – these Aries love interests will give you a simple, sincere love story. They’re cute – like a weird puppy is cute – and their energy is contagious, which lends itself well to a light-hearted, wholesome romantic comedy. There are also a couple of what Otome Shimai refer to as “wah wah boyfriends”, who tend to be eccentric, comedic characters I affectionately refer to as ‘adorkable’. There are no ‘problematic faves’ in this list (except Motonari, but he still fits the ‘wild adventurer’ aspect of this zodiac), but there are an overwhelming number of ‘deredere’ characters, who simply adore MC and want her to be happy. They’re not perfect characters – and some of their routes may get a little angsty – but there’s something oddly innocent, or pure, about the way they express their love. With sweet, sincere affection, they’ll make your heart feel like it’s swelling to the point of bursting. It’s difficult to describe, but the common trait among these Aries love interests is the way they make you feel. If you’re looking for an awkward, adorable, pure-hearted love interest who you can tease and have fun with, then you’ll find exactly that in Collar X Malice’s Enomoto… Final Thoughts ![]() Enomoto, on the other hand… well, he’s funny by accident. A few of the love interests in this post can be considered ‘comedic’ characters, but this is largely due to their own, deliberate sense of humour. ![]()
