What is it about anime boys that makes one feel uplifted and joyous? Every time I see an anme boy down-on-his-luck, heart-broken, inferior, traumatized, or just depressed (pic related for all), one cannot help but feel sympathy for the young boy. All anime males seem to give off a warm-spirited aura that the girls cannot match in any way.

last I heard it's a sympathy or motherly instinct thing, and that doesn't apply to just anime but much of classic art that displays victimized subjects (pieta for instance)

oldschool Clamp is good with this angle, TB and x/1999 was full of that appeal.

I know how you feel about that. I feel the same about some girls, though.

But I shall post a few guys who have invoked that feeling from me.

It's really more of a character-to-character basis with me, not about gender.

I think "moe" would be the correct term to use?

WHUT. Sexist and close-minded anon is sexist and close-minded. I think you just have a taste for angsty/depressed boys, but not for girls. Because there are tons of animu that have girl's with the characteristics that you described.

nah, i doubt it was sexism. OP was most probably describing her/his reaction to moe characters. since s/he is probably attracted only to males, s/he didn't feel the same about moe girls.
