Heya!

So what I'm looking for here is a particular type of character. Lol recently I've been very into the 'strong and silent' guy type, as the title says. It would be great if any of you could recommend me some manga (or anime, doesn't really matter which) with that type of character.

Examples of this kind of character would be:
Zoro from One Piece
Mori from Ouran High School Host Club
Ryu from Kimi ni Todoke
(Sorta) Okegawa from Oresama Teacher

Uhhhhh.... that's all that I can think of from the top of my head now lol. Any recommendations would be very helpful and any romance is a plus 😀

Oh, and just in case, please don't mistaken "the strong silent" type as the typical shoujo main guy who is silent but has a heart warming side or always rescues the heroine. What I particularly want is a character like the examples that I've shown. Just basically a strong and honest guy, who likes to talk only when necessary. Something like that.

I'm sorry for my pickyness and I look forward to your recommendations 😀
Thank you!

The first thing that comes to mind is Noblesse. It totally fits what you wre looking for... The starting is slow so don't give up, and rest assured for art as it greatly evolves later on 🙂 Read it in "Webtoon" format which is available on Batoto or Easy Going Scans reader ^^

There's a character in Gakuen Babysitters that I think fits really well.

One of the stories in Sugars (YAMAMORI Mika) also.

Blanc Marie is a pretty sweet one.

I hope that this is what you're looking for and I didn't just suggest what you didn't want. 😛

Blame! - I don't remember him talking much
Lone Wolf and Cub - same

And maybe Angel Densetsu but I dunno.

Hibi Chouchou

The male lead is extremely shy, quiet but is really strong.

Hajime no Ippo - Ippo, Miyata, Mashiba all are pretty silent, especially Mashiba he reminds me of batman

kuroko no basuke sounds pretty accurate. It's a basketball manga and the main character's strength are passes so his partner gets all the spotlight.

Nicolas Brown from Kosuke's Gangsta. falls into this category. He's deaf and doesn't like to speak except in emergencies. One of the best manga out there.

Hijikata Mamoru from Until Death Do Us Part by TAKASHIGE Hiroshi/ SONG Ji-Hyoung might also fit. He is certainly one of the guys who keep to themselves. He's blind by the way.

Have you checked the Silent Protagonist tag already? It might be of help.

To be savoured:

• Otoyomegatari by MORI Kaoru
• Gangsta. by Kohske
• Seishun Kouryakuhon by AKIZUKI Sorata

You can try Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei or Vinland Saga
