Top 10 Male Taurus Anime Characters

As an earth sign, Tauruses are focused on being rooted in everything they do. They take pleasure in both the natural beauty of the world and material possessions which allows them to live the most beautiful and rewarding life possible. Tauruses are very true to themselves and hate dishonesty. They are responsible individuals who are some of the most loyal throughout the zodiac. These traits lineup to create a devoted person who will never waver in both loyalty and love. However, the Taurus is not without their weaknesses, as with all signs they have traits that could ultimately bring them to their destruction. Tauruses are often stubborn and unwilling to listen to other views. Being so grounded has its limitations, they are possessive with their beautiful possessions which can also extend to people and are uncompromising when dealing with situations that don’t align with their views. These individuals born between April 20th and May 20th make excellent partners, but it is important to see them for their downsides as well.

These traits carry over to the anime characters as well. Male Taurus characters resemble these traits admirably and are able to be seen as true Tauruses. By listing the characters born under this sign, we are able to properly analyze, not necessarily the best characters, but the ones that are in line most with the Taurus traits. We hope that you enjoy our list of the top 10 male Taurus characters.

His true Taurus traits don’t appear unless he gets a power boost when he becomes more uncompromising and stubborn than usual. His true nature is more laid back however, and he is pure of heart and exceedingly honest. Gohan is a true friend and loyal family member despite his half-Saiyan genetics. His strength is admirable and his commitment to his craft is commendable making him a genuine Taurus.


9. England from Hetalia Axis Powers

He does not have a good view of himself and often becomes drunk and turns to violence. He is grounded in his spiritual views and often takes up quarrels because he wants to stand his ground and is extremely stubborn. He is exceptionally uncompromising when he gets in arguments with the other countries due to his past history. These more negative traits lead to him being one of the top 10 Taurus males.

Don’t let the beautiful Izaya Orihara fool you, although he claims to love humanity, he ultimately seeks chaos.

He is a loner and is often seen playing by himself in his apartment. While he seeks out people to have a relationship with, his demented personality leads him destruction.

They seek out life for its more material pleasures and take great gratification from the arts and tend to be the most hedonistic of all the zodiac signs. However, they are extremely loyal to their companions and loved ones, though their tendencies to be stubborn and possessive often drive a wedge in their relationships.
