The outpouring of anime characters into our world has exposed us to so many unique character designs, some peculiar and some fascinating. One design that has grabbed the attention of many fans is that of anime characters with white hair like White Haired Anime Girls and Boys. In this article, we’ll be going through white-haired male anime characters.
These guys are already good-looking, and the white hair just propels them to new levels of handsomeness. Without any further ado, let’s look at the best white haired anime boy characters list.
10. Inuyasha (InuYasha)
This classic anime has kept fans of many generations entertained. The story is captivating, and the romance is heart-touching. However, one more souvenir from the series is the main character himself. His long silver-white hair is a notable characteristic. This demi-human has roots arising from demons and has a cute puppy-like appearance.
9. Soul Eater Evans (Soul Eater)
Evans is that dorky character that you fall for without even realizing that you have. He tries to mold himself into what he thinks is cool, which often results in a lot of danger or hilarity. If his naughty attitude doesn’t already charm you, his piano skills will send a cupid arrow flying right to your heart. He is highly devoted and makes for a powerful weapon upon transformation.
8. Toushirou Hitsugaya (Bleach)
This serious and responsible character is a slippery slope with fans. You either entirely love or hate him. There’s no middle ground. He has a grumpy attitude, which is occasionally attractive, and he hates it when people behave irresponsibly or like children. Even though people usually make fun of him, he has learned to take it in stride, and if it’s an enemy that mocks him, he makes sure to pay them back in full. His short height and fluffy white hair have earned him lots of attention from fans.
7. Ban (Seven Deadly Sins)
With a very interesting personality, Ban seems to gather a lot of attention for his cool attitude and selfish yet occasionally caring nature. He is known to do whatever catches his interest, without much thought to other things. His caring side is evident when he is ready to give away anything for his love, Elaine. He is eccentric and can quickly get excited, as is seen when he gets fired up in situations where others are normal.
6. Decim (Death Parade)
Death Parade introduced us to a calm and collected character who finds it hard to understand human emotions and to connect with those of his own. His visage is a top-tier poker face. His messy white hair and great personality tugs at our hearts. He is dedicated to his job and treats all his workers with respect. Decim holds deep respect for those that have lived a fulfilling life. His handsome face and relaxed attitude have earned him a well-deserved spot on this list.
5. Accelerator (A Certain Magical Index)
A cruel man with a cunning brain and an overpowered ability, Accelerator was introduced into the anime as a villain, but with a shocking twist of events, became an anti-hero. He has messy white hair with long bangs that fall over his eyes. His devilish smile will make your heartthrob until you realize that he can use telekinesis to bring about chaos all around you. And he does just that in the anime.
4. Near (Death Note)
The successor of the greatest detective, L, Near is analytical and has a strong acumen for strategizing. He has messy white hair and a deceptively cute and handsome face. Don’t let his childish surroundings and constant playing with toys fool you. He is cunning and can have criminals running with their tails between their legs. Even the FBI acknowledges his abilities. And his role in the anime was fascinating to watch. He may seem childish but can be very intimidating.
3. Kakashi Hatake (Naruto)
With more than half of his extremely handsome face hidden, this teacher’s appearance is initially left to viewers’ imagination, barring his spiky blue hair, attractive dead-inside eyes, and black mask. These have grown to become identifying characteristics of Kakashi-sensei. He likes to read a certain perverted book and tends to remain calm even in intense situations. He is analytical and respected throughout the ninja world. While he seems like a cool dude, he has had a very rough past himself.
2. Kaneki Ken (Tokyo Ghoul)
Ken initially had black hair, and the change in his hair color also signifies a greater change in his character. He is not the same person. Kaneki sheds away his old hair, and with it, his old world. This is the beginning of a new Kaneki, a more unpredictable, ruthless, and powerful half-human half-ghoul.
1. Killua Zoldyck (Hunter x Hunter)
This assassin extraordinaire is a treat to watch, especially when he is in action and slicing through opponents, or when he’s thinking, and also when he’s smiling. In fact, Killua manages to be awesome throughout the series. While he is a master assassin, he also has a loving and caring side and can do anything for the safety of his friends. He is also a glutton and can chow down sweets in an instant. His character development is thrilling, and he is an absolute badass.
Honorable mentions-
- Allen Walker (D.Gray-Man)
- Tomoe (Kamisama Hajimemashita)
- Zen Wistalia (Snow White with the Red Hair)
- Aru Akise (Future Diary)
- Norman (The Promised Neverland)
- Jiraiya (Naruto)
- Asta (Black Clover)
- Gintoki (Gintama)
- Hatsuhara Sohma (Fruits Basket)
It’s fascinating how a trait, the hair color, can make such a big difference in the likability and hype surrounding a character. While in the real world, it signifies old age, in the anime world, it has grown to become a sign of beauty and mystery, and generally, a troubled past.
Anime Law: there’s always a white haired character that’s never the protagonist but is almost always the favourite character or one of the strongest in the show
