Memorable MLs I currently consider healthy, mature, respectful, kind or just non-toxic.

When I started reading the Fantasy Romance Drama (Isekai) Genre, I noticed that many ML Heroes are often romanticized immature rude cruel asshole manchildren who are secretly so desperate for a healing NLOG FL that they do commit any crimes or unethical inhumane things to get their perfect waifu. It doesn't help that they use their dark sad past trauma as a common exuse to mistreat, abuse, threaten, kill or power harass anyone socially lower or inferior than them.
Annoyed by these kinds of privileged psycho/sociopath Male Leads, I started to find and appreciate MLs who are more responsible, reasonable, mature, empathetic etc...
And they are not idiotic too melodramatic Yanderes causing stupid fatal misunderstandings!

Nine - Beware of the Villainess

Cute Wolf Beastman Butler Companion. Kinda a trope problem that he on the street with no tongue and claws was saved by Melissa and then fell in love with her. Overall a sweet male waifu.

Claude - The Duchess with an Empty Soul

He liked his FL in the first timeline even when she was disfigured.
The first struggling ML who turns back time to save her. And turns out he was never chosen by god with real holy power.

Ishid - The Evil Lady's Hero


Accidently burned his mother's corpse and his father blamed him but he never lost his sanity + humanity. Doesn't stalk or wristgrab his FL like any very arrogant problematic MLs.

Credic Hayworth - Is It a Fortune or Is It a Woe?

A mature grounded charming Gentleman who is very respectful to and playful with his teasing feisty wife. His mother is alive, well, not evil antagonistic, loving and fierce.
But according to one spoiler he was considering killing the background character Miles FL's former loser fiance. I hope this was a translation mistake, misunderstanding or exaggeration.

Ursch-Kun - The Villainess Wants to Marry a Commoner

Commoner Ursch reminds me that I find other male characters who are supporting characters or extras more attractive + interesting than the noble/royal barely 'relatable' ML.

Patrick - Villainess Level 99 ~I may be the Hidden Boss but I'm not the Demon Lord~

Hardworking level headed very nice sane Patrick who loves supports + knows how to handle Dense Crazy OP Boss Yumelia.

Riol Glen - The Noble Girl Who Finds a Nerdy and Plain Guy Moe Thinks that the Arrogant Prince is In the Way

Despite being a poor Baron's Son; he is adorable protective competent brilliant and superior than a high-and-mighty privileged Crown Prince!

Anakin - Kill the Villainess

Commoner Knight and the most genuine sane respectful loving ML/Male Character in KTV.

Dante Schneider - Ebony/Lady Evony

Dislike the Royals of his Kingdom. Respects and Supports other (female) characters.
Works kinda under the red haired conquerer Queen Aurora Fenryr Astrophotas (Queen, You Mustn't!).

Archduke Axias - Like A Wind On A Dry Branch

Has edgy drama with Empress because her sons tortured/killed his mother and he in turn beheaded his half-brothers. Very appreciates and considerate of talented strong smart women (Female warriors + Sorceresses).

Izu Lancel - I'm the Ex-Girlfriend of a Soldier

Actually a Decent Demon Lord Ruler and Good Husband but lied to his wife FL about his identity.
Has his flaws and insecurities but makes the effort to change/learn.
Fought against Novel Fates to be free from the plot and be with the suffering Heroine.

Harry - I’ll Just Live on as a Villainess

Cute childish white haired OP Demon ML being very supportive + fluffy in front of his FL.
It does bother me he had no qualms of eradicating Wyverns that are intelligent innocent creatures.
Thankfully Girlboss FL stopped him.

Kyle/Kylus - The Stereotypical Life of a Reincarnated Lady

Very socially awkward funny guy working hard to understand FL and other people.
