You all know that arrogant S.O.B. usually pissing everyone off by ranting about how absolutely wonderful they are? This is not that character.
This is the type of narcissist who constantly rants and raves about how mind-blowingly awesome they are, and the fans agree with them.
Maybe it's because they can actually back up their bragging with genuine skill and competence, or maybe it's because they're just so damn entertaining in their rants, or maybe it's because they can express their arrogance in a way that doesn't belittle others. But whatever the reason, it's this character's ego that makes them so charismatic.
Often a trait of the Magnificent Bastard, the Memetic Badass, and the Insufferable Genius. These characters constantly spout a Badass Boast. Contrast the Small Name, Big Ego and Smug Snake, who may have an ego, but in their case, it's more annoying than entertaining, and the Boisterous Weakling, who tries to brag even though their weakness is painfully obvious to everyone. Also contrast the Humble Hero, who plays down their awesomeness.

The Super Mario Bros. Movie: Donkey Kong is a total show-off who revels in the glory, but combining his competence as a fighter, his desire to make Cranky Kong proud, and his great dynamic with Mario, it's not hard to respect just how ego-driven Donkey Kong is.

From The Great Mouse Detective we have Basil of Baker Street, a dangerously eccentric mouse that's fully capable of being a Jerkass but has the smarts to back up his ego. And then we have Professor Ratigan, a villain who certainly knows it and embraces his evil like there's no tomorrow. It helps that he's just as brilliant as Basil.

Horrible Histories portrays some of its historical characters as having a huge ego, but also being fun and able to back up their boasts. Most notably, Charles II of England, who has a whole Boastful Rap about how the people love him and what he achieved in the Restoration. William Shakespeare is also an Awesome Egotist who brags about his plays and the words and phrases he invented.

Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann has Kamina, a deliciously complicated example. He presents a ludicrously egotistical image, to the point that many fans believe both his act and his hype - how could someone who tried to threaten a Humongous Mecha on foot with a katana not be this trope? In actuality, he's both completely ineffective at everything and fully aware of that - he's as scared and panicky as Simon but trusts Simon's heroic abilities, so he puts on the ego act in order to inspire Simon.

Lucifer, naturally. And he's not shy about declaring who he is to everyone, but, of course, no one believes him. So one can imagine how he feels about someone pretending to be him in order to get into high-end parties and seduce women, whom he leaves unsatisfied. However, he will be the first to say that he most assuredly does not have a "god complex", although this has more to do with his Daddy Issues than his ego. After Chloe gets gun-shy regarding him, they're working a case in which two of his hookups were murdered, and Chloe determines they'll need to talk to anyone else he hooked up with recently. Lucifer thinks it will help for Chloe to hear what a fantastic lover he is. Chloe scoffs at the thought that they'll rate him positively, but cue a parade of people rhapsodizing about having the best sex of their lives with him.

Dragon Ball:
Vegeta in Dragon Ball Z, who possesses almost legendary amounts of arrogance, manages to be this, rather than insufferable or annoying. From the way he mocks and belittles his foes, to the way he's always ready to fight guys much stronger than him, it all combines to make him a fan favorite.
Vegito, being a fusion of Vegeta and Goku. The guy is a Showy Invincible Hero, and he's fully aware of it and makes a point to hammer it into the head of Big Bad Majin Buu.
Just about all the villains (especially Frieza, Cell, and Super Buu) are mostly loved by fans and are considered downright awesome, earning their bragging rights. Just look at the Ginyu Force!
Goku as a kid. He had no problem bragging about how powerful he was and allow his opponents to hit him just to show that it had no effect on him. And the audience enjoyed it since he was a Showy Invincible Hero for almost half of the original Dragon Ball. This is downplayed as an adult, but it still pops up at times. Like after becoming a Super Saiyan, Goku taunted and mocked Frieza about losing to a monkey. He even allows Frieza to power up to his max just to show that he never had a chance. And he succeeded.

When Dante in The Divine Comedy meets the great poets (a group composed of Homer, Horace, Ovid, Lucan, and Virgil) in Inferno Canto 4, he is welcomed into their group as its sixth member. This could come across as extremely egotistical, as Dante is essentially equating himself with the greatest poets in human history. Except his work is just as well-known and widely-read today as any of their works, if not even more so. Thus, he comes across less egotistical and more prescient.

Yu-Gi-Oh!:
If there's one aspect/characterization/etc. that isn't exaggerated or otherwise meddled with in the Abridged Series, it's the very real fanbase of Seto Kaiba. Dueling skills? Check. Computer skills? check. Kung fu? Check. An industrialist that could put Tony Stark to shame? Double check. Massive sense of pride? Oh yes. And he always wears the best outfits to match. To make it even more ridiculous, at one point in Yu-Gi-Oh! The Dark Side of Dimensions, Aigami tries to teleport Kaiba away. It doesn't work, do you know why? Because his ego was so big it exceeded the magic powers of dimension travel!
Making it even more ridiculous, they even point out that his new Duel-Disk amplifies his ego.
Kaiba's ego is so important to him, that when all attempts to bring back the Pharaoh fail, just to beat him in a Duel, Kaiba somehow eventually settles on the second-best option: Travelling 5000 years back in time to Ancient Egypt, just to fight his rival again.
Other rivals may even exceed him. The 'Kings' (Jack's) Ego is the most notable example. It helps that Jack isn't that much of a jerk in comparison to Kaiba and can show off his arrogance without needing to look down on other people, post-Dark Signer arc onwards.

Esmerelda "Granny" Weatherwax from the Discworld series is the greatest witch on the Disc and assumes her superiority as naturally as anyone else breathes. She repeatedly proves it by taking down anyone who steps up to her, be they elf queens, vampire clans, or her own sister. One thing that makes Granny so beloved in spite of her massive ego is that she very rarely punches down and bullies those below her — no one is Beneath Notice and she'll help anyone who asks or take any challenge seriously, no matter how trivial the issue or how badly outmatched they are.

My Hero Academia: All For One is a narcissistic psychopath who aims to be the greatest villain of all time. However, it's not hard to see why he might believe that he is. He plays everyone around him like pawns, curb-stomps several high-ranking heroes with little effort, and is single-handedly responsible for forcing All Might into retirement. Not to mention his incredibly useful ability to both give and take away Quirks.

Transformers (G1): Sky Lynx is supremely full of himself but he actually is as good as he says he is. While his attitude and self-aggrandizement might seem obnoxious, he has a better track record than most other big Transformers in that his sheer durability and strength don't get overshadowed by new big toys that get introduced, instead choosing to show them as "merely" being near his level. He's the size of a combiner and hence a Humongous Mecha among Humongous Mecha due to the fact that he's made up of a full-sized Space Shuttle and crawler carrier rather than a shrunk-down version like other shuttle-bots, and he doesn't shrink in robot mode either — his various beast modesnote The shuttle can become a flying dinosaur, the crawler can become a lynx, and they can combine into a dragon/griffon monster are all as big as they would be expected to be. All this adds up to a kaiju-sized mechanical monstrosity who knows just who magnificent he is.

When getting the fans to boo Becky Lynch proved impossible in the wake of her Face–Heel Turn against Charlotte Flair, her character took a different direction where she doesn't even try to get Cheap Heat or shut down the people chanting her name. If anything, she loves being cheered, because, in her mind, it vindicates everything she says about how she's the best wrestler in WWE and everyone else in the locker room is beneath her.

The titular character of Robin Hood (1973) knows damn well that he's the best archer in Nottingham (if not all of England). He's also a really good actor and a master of disguise. He's sometimes shown to be a little bit overconfident, but by and large he fully lives up to his mildly inflated ego, and it helps that he's a genuinely Nice Guy who truly wants to help the downtrodden citizens.

Gig from Soul Nomad & the World Eaters is an arrogant jerk with the overall demeanor of a delinquent teenager who has no respect for anybody, and it's hilarious. Plus he's every bit as much of badass as his constant bragging claims; in fact, he's likely the game's most popular character.

Kai from Kung Fu Panda 3 has one hell of an ego on him, constantly boasting about his accomplishments (and getting annoyed when they aren't recognized), along with having way too much fun in the villain role for his own good. The fact that he does all of this while still being very competent has made him quite endearing to the fandom.

Kamen Rider Build: Sento Kiryu, the second coming of Kuroto Dan, absolutely has to gloat about being an amazing, handsome Insufferable Genius. Ruining his moment or depriving him of spotlight can ear his ire very quickly. Especially if he is insulting everyone in the room, polishing ego and proclaming love to his Dumb Muscle sidekick Ryuga Banjo all at the same time. The catchphrase given to him by his family sums it up thusly: "Narcissistic, conceited hero of justice."

Kamen Rider Ex-Aid: Kuroto Dan, the narcissistic, raving lunatic that kicked off the main plot of the story because he was angry at an eight-year old, who sent him fan mail praising the video games he created and suggesting new ideas. You know, like a child might do when writing to their idol. His antics usually put him straight into Too Funny to Be Evil, so it's dangerously easy to pass up his plans as anything else but a genuine act of bioterrorism.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim:
J'Zargo, your Khajiit classmate in the College of Winterhold. Arrogant, light-fingered, and eager to solve any and all issues put before him with arcane destruction. But he's also funny, affable once you've earned his respect... and he lacks in a level cap, allowing him to keep up with even the awesome potential of the Dragonborn.
Master Neloth in DLC expansion Dragonborn steals the show with his over-the-top haughtiness and magical experiments of dubious safety. He'll also go surprisingly hands-on for a Telvanni mage-lord when attempting to find a MacGuffin with you.
Marcurio, the mage for hire in Riften. Most of his dialogue is either creatively boasting about his arcane prowess, sarcastically commenting on his surroundings, or complaining about anything he considers beneath him. However, he does live up to his own hype in combat, and his random commentary in dungeons is often hilarious (such as calling the player character out on Kleptomaniac Hero tendencies.)

Undertale: Papyrus is a self-assured egomaniac skeleton with delusions of adequacy and is quite possibly the funniest thing in the game because of the sharp contrast between said ego and his lovably enthusiastic and helpful demeanor. Helps that he doesn't put down anyone else either: He's very convinced you're an awesome person, just like he is. Add that to his "fabled Blue Attack", and probably the only reason he's easy enough to be fought so early in the game is that he's just too nice to actually try to hurt you.

Zaphod Beeblebrox of The Restaurant at the End of the Universe. It's how he survives the Total Perspective Vortex... at least until it's revealed shortly that it was sabotaged. As Zarniwoop tells him, "You would never have survived the real one." Still, Zaphod is one hoopy frood. The fact that someone went out of their way to create a virtual reality, identical to the real reality, specifically for Zaphod's benefit, just so Zaphod could survive said Vortex, should tell you something.

Xenoblade Chronicles:
Xenoblade Chronicles 1: Lord Zanza is what happens when A God Am I is taken too literally. Granted, he's not technically a god, as he was the broken-off spirit of a god-seeking scientist named Klaus, but he did create the World of the Titans, and boy, does he wear it on his sleeve. The other, peaceful goddess of the World of the Titans, Lady Meyneth, only wanted her, Zanza, and all life on Bionis and Mechonis to live in harmony, but Zanza saw himself as above it all, seeing Homs as vessels, Nopon as food, and High Entia as vestiges for the genocidal Telethia. He controls this cycle all whilst retaining a deeply stoic demeanor and a large amount of Cold Ham.
Xenoblade Chronicles X has the one and only Hector Birtwistle, H.B. for short. Valedictorian of his class, convinced of his own superiority, has ladies fawning over him with one referring to him as "Dreamy McGlasses", and prefaces his called attacks with "superior". Throw in his good looks and the innate humor in his dialogue, mix in some Character Development to allow him to respect your Player Character as a worthy rival, and season with capable battle AI for an Ensemble Dark Horse.
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 has three notable examples.
Zeke von Genbu, the deposed prince of Tantal, is Small Name, Big Ego incarnate. Whenever meeting anybody new, he immediately plays up the theatrics, seeing himself as Alrest's best Driver and deserving of a Blade as legendary as the Aegis. That said, he was also Born Unlucky, so the ivory is knocked off his tower enough times to keep it from being grating when initially encountering him, but once he becomes a party member, he lightens up immensely and becomes one of the biggest Nice Guys of the group.
The main villain of the main campaign, Malos, is an interesting case study of this. He sees himself as superior to all life forms on Alrest, but he doesn't necessarily brag about his accomplishments, as he intends on exterminating all life. That said, he's incredibly boastful about his goals, is an expert at Mind Rape, and treats his comrades from Torna as if they were his family, while also instructing them to take the most pragmatic approach.
An optional Rare Blade that can be pulled from a Core Crystal, Dagas is a Blade who views himself as a king of an unknown country, despite the fact that Blades don't retain memories of their previous lives with Drivers when they revert back into Core Crystals. Of course, Dagas sees himself as above such a notion, and expects whoever his Driver is to live up to his outrageous expectations, but is also surprisingly capable in combat. Oh, and did we mention that he carries around a portable throne?
Xenoblade Chronicles 3: Of the six Ouroboros members, Eunie is the one who acts the most high and mighty, with her initially viewing everyone besides Noah to be below her and often needing of her assistance. As the game progresses, though, it's shown that Eunie's haughty behavior is a way for her to quell her prior trauma, making her bloated ego something to sympathize with, especially when she has to confront that trauma.

Fate Series:
Fate/kaleid liner PRISMA☆ILLYA: Gilgamesh (or just 'Gil'). He's still full of himself, but he's now a shota from the get-go. The audience of the Fate franchise obviously loves him.
Fate/Zero: Rider seriously believes he can convince everyone else involved in the Grail War to become his new army and help him conquer the world. It never occurs to him that anyone would object to being his subject even when it's pointed out that the other Servants include Kings and Demigods (including the aforementioned Gilgamesh in his adult form).

Marvel Cinematic Universe:
Tony Stark, just as in the comics. "I've successfully privatized world peace" is such an audacious and narcissistic thing to claim; but not only is it partially true, but he's also just so awesome for daring to say it. In The Avengers, he successfully figures out where Loki plans to make his move by realizing that Loki is no different from him in that regard.
As evidenced by their interactions in Avengers: Infinity War, Doctor Stephen Strange is the one person whose intelligence and confidence surpass Tony's, being the cool, calculating Blue to Tony's neurotic, annoying Red.

Garou from One-Punch Man is this way for most of the Human Monster Saga as he continuously beats hero after hero; fans just love his unrepentant evil and being powerful.
And then subverted: Turns out he suffers from an Inferiority Superiority Complex. Despite his growing strength and skill, he cannot beat Saitama, and indeed, his new monstrous forms just make him a bigger target. Saitama spells it out that despite all of Garou's posturing over evil and being a fan of monsters, he actually wanted to be a hero and his disdain for other heroes was for not living up to his expectations for what an Ideal Hero is (though he isn't wrong there.) Saitama even tells him being a monster was perfect for "someone with no confidence" before flat-out saying that he'd never win against Saitama because ultimately, Garou's half-assing it and against Saitama, who's giving it his sincere all, he'll never win.

Avatar: The Last Airbender:
Toph Beifong has proclaimed herself to be the greatest Earthbender in the world. That was after her captors (who had caught her by surprise) told her that not even the greatest Earthbender in the world could bend metal, and thus free themselves from the metal box she was locked in, and she proceeded to invent Metalbending.
In the Sequel Series The Legend of Korra, Old Lady Toph is still more than a little smug when we meet her again. But the mantle of Most Entertaining Egotist is passed on to Varrick, a very loud and very energetic man who is sublimely convinced that he's the most important thing in the world and everyone will instantly forgive his misdeeds. He's almost right — for two seasons after The Reveal, the other characters wisely distrust him, but he is such a Lovable Traitor the fanbase adores his charm. And because he is a brilliant engineer, he is too useful for the protagonists to totally reject his help.

The Legend of Zelda:
The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword: Groose starts out as an amusing Jerk Jock, but through Character Development, becomes Link's Lancer after a particularly Funny Moment. Both of these combined made him both an Ensemble Dark Horse and a Memetic Badass.
The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds: The Mad Artist Yuga is so full of himself that the background music during his second boss battle is literally chanting his own name. Doesn't get much more egotistical than that.
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild: Revali is an egotistical archer who dislikes Link for overshadowing his own skills by virtue of being The Chosen One, in contrast to the other Champions who adore Link. Fans still found Revali endearing for this.

HappinessCharge Pretty Cure!: Oresky. In just his first episode, he loudly and proudly advertised his fan club in front of an Intrepid Reporter. He quickly backs it up by proving to be quite the Wake-Up Call Boss for Cures Lovely and Princess by being smart enough to create not one Monster of the Week, but two of them from four Innocent Bystanders, with one of them kept back for an ambush! It got so bad for our main duo that Cure Fortune had to step in and deliver a Curb-Stomp Battle! There's a reason why his fan club transcends the Fourth Wall.

Sardonyx from Steven Universe certainly thinks very highly of herself due to the confidence boost Pearl has while being fused with Garnet. She clearly loves being herself and has a bit of an ego while doing a mission, and her fans love her for it.

The titular character of Bayonetta is a cocky, self-assured witch who taunts building-sized angels, demons, and gods with the self-assurance of a dominatrix. Aside from a few O.O.C. Is Serious Business moments, she blithely torments and toys with her foes in combat. And that's all part of her appeal.

Kamen Rider: Oftentimes a feature of an Ensemble Dark Horse.
Kamen Rider Kabuto: Souji Tendou is all built around being perfect, so it's no wonder he has perfect ego too. Also, he loves to monologue and gift his surroundings with piece of wit usually starting with "My grandmother said...". The story also loves to spoil his spotlight with someone else's fumbling.
Tsurugi Kamishiro is almost as good at everything as Tendou, and more comedic as he plays it up. (Once an Episode, he tells us that he's the man who stands at the top of... something new every time. When he decided to see how the common folk live, the catchphrase became hilarious, because now it's "I am the man who shall stand at the top of waiting in line!")
Kamen Rider Decade: Tsukasa Kadoya adores monologuing and (mostly rightful) gloating about his genius. Unless it's taking photos, which he loves but sucks at. His pompous atitude lives up to his past as the Great leader of Daishocker, which presumably requires ego and Large Ham as an artform.
Kamen Rider Ex-Aid: Kuroto Dan, the narcissistic, raving lunatic that kicked off the main plot of the story because he was angry at an eight-year old, who sent him fan mail praising the video games he created and suggesting new ideas. You know, like a child might do when writing to their idol. His antics usually put him straight into Too Funny to Be Evil, so it's dangerously easy to pass up his plans as anything else but a genuine act of bioterrorism.
Kamen Rider Build: Sento Kiryu, the second coming of Kuroto Dan, absolutely has to gloat about being an amazing, handsome Insufferable Genius. Ruining his moment or depriving him of spotlight can ear his ire very quickly. Especially if he is insulting everyone in the room, polishing ego and proclaming love to his Dumb Muscle sidekick Ryuga Banjo all at the same time. The catchphrase given to him by his family sums it up thusly: "Narcissistic, conceited hero of justice."
Kamen Rider Zi-O: Woz, the bombastic herald of Oma Zi-O. Always on top of everything, usually in control and in possession of a great supply of acerbic quips on everyone's behalf, even his overlord's past self. Everyone on all sides knows he is a Devil in Plain Sight, but that's easily covered up by how funny, polite (in a passive-aggressive way) and delightful to watch he is.

Super Mario Bros.:
Bowser. He's a massive ham with an equally massive ego, but he can back every claim. When pitted against another threat, he'll stomp it to pieces and burn it to ashes. His massive armies follow him not out of fear, but out of respect and admiration. Against anyone other than Mario and Luigi, he's unstoppable, verging on The Juggernaut.
Wario. He's a greedy, selfish Jerkass who cares for nobody except himself (and beats up everyone in his way), but that's exactly why his fans like him. There's something admirable about how honest the guy is about his ambitions and motivations. In his "Crowdfarter" video meant to promote Game & Wario, he outright says "you give me your money so I can make my dreams come true".
Wario's partner in crime, Waluigi, has shades of this in his more recent portrayals, which showcase his skill at dancing and sports, whilst maintaining a massive petty ego, similar to Wario's.
Pauline's showiness first established in Super Mario Odyssey has reached full-blown Attention Whore levels in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, with her Waxing Lyrical with lines from "Jump Up, Super Star" when being launched from a cannon or winning a race, and whipping out her stand microphone and pyrotechnics when performing a trick jump. But considering how likable of a character she's been since Odyssey, it's hard to take all this as bad sportsmanship and more as pure joy, and it makes Pauline all the more fun to play as.

Yvonne Maxa in Between My Brother and Me: Mors Omnibus is loud, brash, snarky and a Troll. Her Stage Name is "Grand Lorde Guignol" (a combination of the Grand Guignol, aka the church/theater that was genesis of Surreal Horror and Peter Lorde, one of the most well-known directors of said theater) and she backs up her claims of being grand by being capable of murdering Academia students with a knife and delivering a Curb-Stomp Battle onto Sora Shiunin in an Action Duel without losing a single lifepoint. When faced by the likes of Zarc and Yuya Sakaki, she makes lots of remarks that make it seem like dueling them is like a normal Tuesday for her. It's no surprise that she's so popular.

Tony Stark, just as in the comics. "I've successfully privatized world peace" is such an audacious and narcissistic thing to claim; but not only is it partially true, but he's also just so awesome for daring to say it. In The Avengers, he successfully figures out where Loki plans to make his move by realizing that Loki is no different from him in that regard.

Xenoblade Chronicles 1: Lord Zanza is what happens when A God Am I is taken too literally. Granted, he's not technically a god, as he was the broken-off spirit of a god-seeking scientist named Klaus, but he did create the World of the Titans, and boy, does he wear it on his sleeve. The other, peaceful goddess of the World of the Titans, Lady Meyneth, only wanted her, Zanza, and all life on Bionis and Mechonis to live in harmony, but Zanza saw himself as above it all, seeing Homs as vessels, Nopon as food, and High Entia as vestiges for the genocidal Telethia. He controls this cycle all whilst retaining a deeply stoic demeanor and a large amount of Cold Ham.

Xenoblade Chronicles 2 has three notable examples.
Zeke von Genbu, the deposed prince of Tantal, is Small Name, Big Ego incarnate. Whenever meeting anybody new, he immediately plays up the theatrics, seeing himself as Alrest's best Driver and deserving of a Blade as legendary as the Aegis. That said, he was also Born Unlucky, so the ivory is knocked off his tower enough times to keep it from being grating when initially encountering him, but once he becomes a party member, he lightens up immensely and becomes one of the biggest Nice Guys of the group.
The main villain of the main campaign, Malos, is an interesting case study of this. He sees himself as superior to all life forms on Alrest, but he doesn't necessarily brag about his accomplishments, as he intends on exterminating all life. That said, he's incredibly boastful about his goals, is an expert at Mind Rape, and treats his comrades from Torna as if they were his family, while also instructing them to take the most pragmatic approach.
An optional Rare Blade that can be pulled from a Core Crystal, Dagas is a Blade who views himself as a king of an unknown country, despite the fact that Blades don't retain memories of their previous lives with Drivers when they revert back into Core Crystals. Of course, Dagas sees himself as above such a notion, and expects whoever his Driver is to live up to his outrageous expectations, but is also surprisingly capable in combat. Oh, and did we mention that he carries around a portable throne?

Xenoblade Chronicles 3: Of the six Ouroboros members, Eunie is the one who acts the most high and mighty, with her initially viewing everyone besides Noah to be below her and often needing of her assistance. As the game progresses, though, it's shown that Eunie's haughty behavior is a way for her to quell her prior trauma, making her bloated ego something to sympathize with, especially when she has to confront that trauma.

Xenoblade Chronicles X has the one and only Hector Birtwistle, H.B. for short. Valedictorian of his class, convinced of his own superiority, has ladies fawning over him with one referring to him as "Dreamy McGlasses", and prefaces his called attacks with "superior". Throw in his good looks and the innate humor in his dialogue, mix in some Character Development to allow him to respect your Player Character as a worthy rival, and season with capable battle AI for an Ensemble Dark Horse.

Klavier Gavin from Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney prides himself on his dual rockstar/prosecutor career, and loves the attention he gets from fans; during one witness testimony, the witness is staring at him (though more out of anxiety and confusion than admiration), and to Klavier, being stared at is business as usual. He's also a very popular character, especially amongst female fans. It helps that despite his ego, he's one of the most competent, nicest, and least corrupt prosecutors in the series.

Moana:
Maui's entire song is all about how awesome he is and saying "You're Welcome!" for all that he's done. Yet it's completely justified, as he's responsible for many godly feats that allow regular humans to live good lives as they do. This includes stealing the Heart of Te Fiti which started the problems with the ocean in the first place — he admits he did it so he could give humans the power of creation, so they would love him even more.
Tamatoa gets a song entirely devoted to how spectacularly amazing he is, (and how inferior the others are), which many consider to be the best song in the movie. When he sings "because I'm beautiful, baby", many viewers are inclined to agree with him.

One Piece:
Roronoa Zoro. This man is stated to be "more arrogant than God", trash-talks his opponents all the time during a fight and, during a battle with an opponent his swordwork wasn't effective on, declared he would be able to cut him by the end of the fight. He did.
Usopp is an interesting example in that he only has an ego if there's nothing bad happening, and turns into a complete coward when something does go wrong... while still kicking plenty of ass anyway. The fans love him for it.

Steve Strange from Visage was this to his copious followers (and seeing how big the New Romantic scene was in the early 80's, he had plenty of them); he was almost certainly a prima donna, given how so many single covers solely featured his face, his stealing of the glory from the real artists in the band like Midge Ure despite having no musical talent, insisting on being the vocalist despite his lack of singing abilitynote Hell, he had to hire a vocal coach just to sound presentable!, and the fact that he once rode a camel to a press conference in New York City. He even made delusions of grandeur-dripping statements like "I'm not a person who loves being in a studio. As soon as my work is done, I want to be out of there and off to the next party." with absolutely zero self-awareness. And yet, due to his charmingly queer, High-Art clothes and makeup, as well as his sheer charisma (the Visage video alone just exudes retro-chic whilst showcasing his blustering arrogance), he had and still has many fans to this day. It helps that many Visage songs were far deeper than what they seemed to be on the surface (The lyrics of "The Damned Don't Cry" lament his shallow party-obsessed lifestyle, yearning for something more), and his talent for creative fashion was unmatched.

It never occurs to him that anyone would object to being his subject even when it's pointed out that the other Servants include Kings and Demigods (including the aforementioned Gilgamesh in his adult form).

Don't Hug Me I'm Scared: Duck is much more self-important and condescending than he is in the web series, but the fact that he equally serves as Only Sane by Comparison and has both Yellow Guy's naïveté and Red Guy's Deadpan Snark to bounce off of makes his egocentricity more endearing than it is annoying.

Tom and Jerry: Back to Oz: Calvin Carney spends about 90% of his screen time singing about how awesome his carnival is and refers to himself as a "showman extraordinaire." As he whisks the heroes through the place, they (and the audience) have ample reason to agree with Calvin.

Jujutsu Kaisen: Satoru Gojo constantly boasts how strong and unstoppable his powers are, like how he is the strongest ever and can probably kill whoever he wants whenever and probably get away with it. And since the manga is yet to introduce anyone who is remotely on his level aside from Ryomen Sukuna, he definitely has a point about it.

Code Geass: Lelouch Lamperouge. At the time of writing, he provides the page image for the Smug Smiler trope, and quite justifiably. He proclaims himself "the man who makes miracles", and that he (single-handedly) will "destroy the world and make it anew". Why does he come across as a Magnificent Bastard rather than a suicidally overconfident Smug Snake? Because his arrogance is, to a large extent, justified.

Fate/Grand Order:
This game has Leonardo da Vinci as a Magitek Omnidisciplinary Scientist in the form of The Mona Lisa. She brags about her looks and brains pretty much all the time.... except it ain't bragging if it's true, and she really is as much of a genius as she says. She hams it up, gets huffy if she isn't getting enough attention, and... is actually a really good, caring friend to the protagonist.
Gilgamesh, yet again, this time in the Babylonia chapter. Here he's in his Older and Wiser Caster form, so his (still ginormous) ego is tempered by wisdom and emotional maturity that his Archer incarnation lacks. The end result is someone who manages to win over even fans who dislike his less mature version. And then the climax comes along, where he deliberately reincarnates himself in his Archer form, but retains his wisdom and experience. In this form, he helps bring down a progenitor god.
Ozymandias. He loves to hear himself talk (and since he's voiced by Takehito Koyasu, the fans love it just as much), regards himself as the greatest pharaoh that Ancient Egypt ever had and an unparalleled general, warrior, and sorcerer, and he proves repeatedly that he is indeed incredibly strong. Yet he also holds his fellow pharaohs (Nitocris, Cleopatra, and Iskandar) in very high regard, observes Sacred Hospitality, and considers Arash to be a Worthy Opponent.

Touhou Project:
Mima, an evil spirit from the early games, is a chronic liar who falsely claimed to be a deity while talking to the goddess of a demon world, yet she backs her arrogance up with the power to defeat said goddess. In the eyes of the fandom, she can do stuff like the "Twilight Spark" despite not possessing any similar attacks in the games.
Also, Miko from later in the series. Known for making herself available just in case people feel they need an immortal God-Emperor to lead them to prosperity. But until then she'll just work on achieving enlightenment and ascending bodily into heaven. Even the Boss Subtitles seem to agree, labeling her the Almighty Taoist Ruler of the Universe.
There is also Marisa, one of the playable characters. A chronic liar note She lied right into the face of the highest-ranked judge of the underworld who accused her of lying too much, perpetual thief note books, especially, just ask Patchouli Knowledge, snarky (just like Alice), loves explosions and superior firepower note like her trademark Masterspark (which she also stole, from Yuuka) and you can ask Nitori about that and has the power to back up her various claims like how she's the only person to rival Reimu when it comes to youkai hunting and incident solving. She's also directly related to Mima above, who is either her mother or mentor, possibly even both. Unlike Reimu however, Marisa achieved everything through strict training and can be surprisingly humble, so overall it's no wonder why she is so popular.

Gilgamesh of the Final Fantasy series is one of the most popular characters, which is largely due to his huge ego. In-Universe, it's sometimes portrayed as empty bragging and always with a healthy dose of humor, but for players, he's rarely a pushover, and sometimes he's among the Optional Bosses.

Magic: The Gathering: Nicol Bolas is a draconic Evil Sorcerer, one of, if not the most ancient and powerful beings in The Multiverse, a Complete Monster... and he damn well knows it. Every quote from him is the epitome of Smug Super, every time he appears in the lore he absolutely dominates anyone who isn't his Good Twin Ugin (and even Ugin got outsmarted by him in the past), and his plans span thousands of years and multiple universes. He has the greatest ego of anyone in the setting, but damned if he doesn't deserve it.

John, of the New Yankee in King Arthur's Court series, comes across as a bit of a blowhard with an exaggerated sense of self-importance. He's also occasionally prone to boasting about the magic skills of his wife Mary, and Mary does likewise about his sword arm. But there's a reason that King Arthur keeps calling on them for assistance - they really are that good.

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure:
Dio Brando is a good contender for the biggest Jerkass in manga history, and it shows... but he's so charismatic, it doesn't really matter.
From Diamond is Unbreakable, mangaka Rohan Kishibe is an Anti-Hero of the highest caliber. With the exception of Koichi Hirose, who he sees incredible potential in for storytelling, he sees every other resident of Morioh as a lowly peasant who isn't worth his time. It isn't until he reunites with the ghost of Reimi Sugimoto, his old babysitter who saved his life, that he decides to assist the heroes in tracking down Yoshikage Kira, and even when he's reluctant to assist them, he's incredibly resistant to the demands of Stands like Highway Star and Cheap Trick, knowing how to outwit his way out of desperate situations.

In Game of Thrones, as the seasons progress, Daenerys Targaryen becomes increasingly fond of trying to cow others into bending to her will by listing her deeds and accomplishment. As those accomplishments include reviving the previously extinct race of dragons — which involved walking into a raging fire and emerging unscathed, rearing those three dragons as her devoted children to kill for her and let her ride on their backs, massacring a cruel empire of slavers with the army of slave-soldiers that they sold her, and taming the most feared culture of bloodthirsty barbarians in the world — which involved assassinating their leaders by burning down their hut, with her still inside of it, then walking naked out of the flames and demanding their followers submit to her... well, most fans relish every time that she does so.

Apocalypse's incarnation in X-Men: The Animated Series is a heartless megalomaniac with a MASSIVE god complex who sees the world as it is as unfit to exist and needs to be wiped from existence and created anew in his vision, scoffs at morality besides his own, and views himself as invincible (he's on the money with that one). But, the fans found the bragging he does so epic, which along with his ability to easily back up the MANY Badass Boasts made him such an appealing villain.

Legacy of Kain: Kain rivals Vegeta in terms of his ambition, arrogance, and (in his younger years) explosive temper, but because he combines it with genuine cunning, personal fearlessness and a willingness to take on any challenge (including the agents of destiny itself), he remains awesome. The Gambit Pileup plotline, excellent faux-Shakespearian script, and truly spectacular voice acting play no small part in this.

Sonic the Hedgehog:
Sonic himself is pretty cocky and proud of his Super-Speed, and it was in large part his attitude that made him a worldwide cultural icon. It helps that even with his ego, he's still genuinely heroic, and isn't too proud to admit to needing help from his friends.
Shadow, to his fans at least. He's far more arrogant than Sonic, and quite possibly anybody in the series besides some of the villains, but he shows consistently that only Sonic can match him.
Dr. Eggman surpasses the rest of the main cast in pure egomania a hundred times over and then some. Besides always taking the time to flaunt a smug and charismatic charm while wearing a Cheshire Cat Grin on his goofy mug, facing off against Sonic and his pals personally every chance he gets, and Chessmastering his way to world domination with only a super-powered hedgehog able to stop him, the good doctor simply adores reveling in his own super-genius at nearly every opportunity, works to be absolutely sure everyone in earshot will hear his self-praises loud and clear, loves to hear himself talk regardless, and gleefully plasters his likeness on every corner he can reach, be it robot flunkies, Humongous Mecha, statues, factories, airships, space stations, printing presses, movie studios, an entire theme park, or an ancient pyramid he's defaced and promptly re-faced everywhere with his own… face. Perhaps the real reason for his egg-shaped stature is because he's just that full of himself, and for good reason.

The Elder Scrolls Online has the Breton knight Darien Gautier (who incidentally shares a voice actor with the aforementioned Marcurio), who won't miss a chance to tell you how popular with the ladies or how great of a fighter he is. Nevertheless, he's a fan favorite character thanks to a) being a legitimately hilarious Deadpan Snarker, b) always putting the mission objectives and civilian lives first despite his bluster, and c) being one of the few Guest-Star Party Member NPCs who actually kicks major ass when you meet him again in Summerset. It doesn't hurt that he's also Mr. Fanservice (and he knows it).

The Horatio from Endless Space and Endless Space 2. He may be kind of a dick, and his ego is completely out of bounds by any measure, but there is something to be said about a man that can find himself gazing at the stars, cloning vats at his side, and think "You know what this galaxy needs more of? Me.", and went on to form a faction that can stand against every other empire in the game composed entirely of clones of himself. And he can be reasonable; just because you're never going to be as beautiful as him doesn't mean you aren't beautiful enough to stand by him (though if your species has a trait he wants, he's going to demand a few thousand of your people to hand it over).

My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Rainbow Rocks:
The Dazzlings sing two different songs about just how great their singing is. They don't disappoint.
Even for her, Rainbow Dash is surprisingly cocky and arrogant in this film. This reaches critical mass with "Awesome as I Wanna Be", where she showboats around the stage with a smug grin getting in her friends' faces as she sings about how awesome she is and no one can compare to her. However, the showboating is so hilarious, the song so great, and combined the two are so overblown, that you just might agree with her.
Trixie's song, a borderline Boastful Rap about how great she is. Considering she's one of the most prominent Ensemble Dark Horses of the franchise, part of the fandom is nodding in agreement with the lyrics.

Warhammer: Settra the Imperishable is one of the most popular characters in the setting for not only being so full of himself that his list of titles takes two hours to recite but for being strong enough to back it up. And he carried this power and arrogance to the very end, down to spitting in the faces of Nagash and the four Chaos Gods when they dared try to offer him anything, everything, to work under them. Six words: "SETTRA DOES NOT SERVE! SETTRA RULES!"

He is a megalomaniac, arrogant jerk who treats his allies and minions as slaves, constantly boasts about his fighting skills, and constantly mocks allies and enemies. However, he is genuinely powerful, is brave enough to yell at Amon to come and face him, and is entertaining to listen to, helped by his voice actor.

Hulk Hogan often bragged about the power of Hulkamania and the power of his "24-inch python" arms and asked his opponents what they were going to do when those things ran wild on him. It made him one of the biggest pop culture icons of the 1980s and one of the highest drawing wrestlers of all time. It even continued with his Face–Heel Turn and founding the New World Order...at least until that angle was run into the ground.

Lord Flashheart from Blackadder is a womanizing braggart who views himself as better than God and makes sure to be in the spotlight in every scene he's in while being so entertaining about it that he's one of the most popular characters in the series, despite only appearing in two episodes.

Pauline's showiness first established in Super Mario Odyssey has reached full-blown Attention Whore levels in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, with her Waxing Lyrical with lines from "Jump Up, Super Star" when being launched from a cannon or winning a race, and whipping out her stand microphone and pyrotechnics when performing a trick jump. But considering how likable of a character she's been since Odyssey, it's hard to take all this as bad sportsmanship and more as pure joy, and it makes Pauline all the more fun to play as.

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic:
Even though Trixie is an arrogant egotist, her hamminess has earned her quite a few fans.
Rainbow Dash and Rarity can both be arrogant as well, but their respective abilities and ties to their friends make this an endearing trait rather than a crippling inability (though there are certain episodes that are built around deconstructing these aspects of their personalities). Rainbow's Establishing Character Moment in the first episode has her claim that she isn't slacking off because she can finish her job (cloud-clearing) in ten seconds flat — and when Twilight is skeptical, doing it (and in an aversion of Magic Countdown, said sequence does indeed take 10 seconds).
Discord also qualifies. Granted, he's certainly quite malicious, and his overconfidence is one of the big reasons he's defeated at the end of his two-episode appearance. However, he's amassed a very large fanbase due to how fun he is to watch, and due to the fact that he can certainly back up his cockiness. He eventually returns in Season 3 and agrees to nix the "malicious" part while nevertheless retaining said ego — i.e, Reformed, but Not Tamed.

Doctor Who:
The titular Doctor's traveled across nearly all time and space, and saved the world more times than they can likely count, is an egotist that often likes to inform people of awesome they are, especially if they DARE to doubt them. Their Evil Counterpart, The Master, is a villainous example, who makes no effort to hide how highly they think of themself from anyone, including The Doctor. Thing is, they are that good, having single-handedly taken over entire worlds, among other things. They also like to boast that they'll never die, and, they won't.
Illustrated by one incarnation with the Doctor's idea of a threat:
Further, the villains agree with them, and more than once they have headed off a confrontation by simply informing them of who they were dealing with.
Another good example: The Doctor's idea of a Badass Boast. (It works.)
Deconstructed in the episode "Midnight", where the Doctor is trapped on a bus with a bunch of Muggles with a monster trying to get in. Everyone's panicking, and here's this bloke who turned up out of nowhere claiming to have experience in dealing with invisible alien monsters (which, in fairness, he does). He gives his name as "John Smith" and takes authority on the basis of "Because I'm clever!" Needless to say, it backfires and very nearly gets him killed.

Hercule Poirot is smart. The smartest there is, he might say. And, regardless of how much you may think that he cannot possibly back up all of his conceited arrogance, you better believe he can back it up or he'll completely Out Gambit you. It won't save you from being completely Out-Gambitted, mind you, but that way you may at least have some dignity left at the end of it... Agatha Christie herself considered killing off Poirot several times, but every time she came up with a way to kill him off, she'd hear his voice in her head, berating her for thinking he'd not be smart enough to anticipate and foil her carefully laid out plans.

Duke Nukem is a self-centered, politically incorrect chauvinistic bastard. And the fans love him for it, both in and out of universe due to the fact that he does have a personality (in contrast to most other shooter protagonists) and his general badassery for saving the world multiple times by himself. How narcissistic is he? In multiple games, he doesn't have a Life Meter—he has an ego meter. And looking at yourself in the mirror gives it a permanent boost. He has written at least one book, titled "Why I'm So Great".

The King of All Cosmos from Katamari Damacy. Normally, he'd go down as one of the worst fathers in history, but he gets a free pass for sheer Refuge in Audacity alone. He wears outlandishly garish clothing, he always uses the Royal "We", he constantly makes bizarre non sequiturs, and he always makes spectacular presentations. He may be a pompous, self-entitled asshole, but it's impossible to hate him.

Jack Burton from Big Trouble in Little China. Ok, he may not be as badass as he thinks he is, in fact, most of the time he's a dork. However, his confidence, determination, fearlessness, and the occasional moment of actual badassery (stabbing a guy with a knife while it's still in his boot, catching a knife that was being thrown at him, and throwing it right back at the villain) make him a prime example.

Ash's Pokédex in Pokémon Reset Bloodlines has a very high opinion of itself, often using the words "awesome" and "amazing" to describe itself. However, given that he's an absurdly useful and competent Do-Anything Robot with such a degree of autonomy Ash finds unnerving (being able to crack passwords and hack protected or restricted databases on its own volition), and possessing a vast wealth of general knowledge...well, nobody really contests that he has the right to make those boasts (out of universe, at least).

Negima! Magister Negi Magi:
The fandom does not appear to mind Jack Rakan's self-aggrandizing statements about his power and abilities (To quote him, "I have no weaknesses!") - probably because he more or less lives up to his claims, and then some. It eventually takes using the power of a veritably-Reality Warping MacGuffin to put him down by "rewriting" him out of existence outright... and he still manages to come back from that. The man is a Memetic Badass for a reason.
Evangeline McDowell has an ego rivaling Jack Rakan, boasting how she is the most powerful and evil monster in the world. Minus the evil, she's right on the money: in the show's huge cast, only about three, including Jack, have any chance of beating her.

Sherlock Holmes goes on at length about his skills as a detective, and the effectiveness of his methods, all while continually mocking Inspector Lestrade and the rest of the official police for their ineptitude. Of course, Holmes consistently matches his bragging with his successes.

Fantastic Four: Doctor Doom, so much. The guy considers himself to pretty much be better than anybody in the entire universe, but he is so charismatic, brilliant, and badass you actually feel like he lives up to that boast. In fact, his ego is practically a superpower in and of itself given that it’s let him casually shrug off psychic attacks on multiple occasions.

Possibly the only reason anyone roots for Walter White later on in Breaking Bad. He may Kick the Dog several times an episode at least, but he throws out awesome moments and bombastic speeches just as frequently. The best example of this would be his exchange with (and subsequent dominance over) rival drug dealers from Phoenix at the beginning of "Say My Name".

Lord Hater, judging by how popular he is with Wander over Yonder fans, especially on Tumblr. The fact that his ego and insecurities are incredibly hilarious helps.

The Mask: The Mask is very much a confident man who thinks that he is the greatest trickster of all and it is shown as despite his quirks he is very genuinely smart and can do a great job of posing as someone else even getting everything about them completely right and he uses his ways of being a Troll to trick his enemies into thinking he is dead or defeated until at the last moment he reveals to them that he is neither dead nor defeated which proves how clever he can be and use his bizarre and outlandish ways to defeat the supervillains who attack Edge City and the people who live there and with success as well. The Mask also knows how to break his enemies egos and does a magnificent job of doing it as he leaves them to be completely broken and comes out on top of it all showing that The Mask is the most powerful and dangerous being on the planet as despite being a Cloudcuckoolander he has enough sanity to keep his mind in check so that he can protect anyone who lives with him in Edge City.

NTSF:SD:SUV::: The President of the Navy is one of the most amusing characters on the show because he acts so much like an over-the-top douchebag that it becomes funny instead of annoying. They even gave him his own Voice Clip Song.

Triple H was never afraid to brag about how tough or brilliant he was. It usually made the fans Love to Hate him, but it occasionally became this, especially on the night he returned from his Game-Breaking Injury.

Smaug the Golden of The Hobbit. He lives up to his epic Badass Boast (essentially "I am mass destruction incarnate") both before and during the story. It's only because of a series of (for the heroes) very lucky coincidences that he doesn't just kill everyone.

Kamen Rider Decade: Tsukasa Kadoya adores monologuing and (mostly rightful) gloating about his genius. Unless it's taking photos, which he loves but sucks at. His pompous atitude lives up to his past as the Great leader of Daishocker, which presumably requires ego and Large Ham as an artform.

Gravity Falls:
Bill Cipher is astonishingly popular among the fanbase with the fact that he's so confident in his master plans while having fun with it. He's a seemingly omnipotent being who has his grand apocalyptic plan completely mapped out from the start, has been putting the pieces into place for years, and doesn't allow any apparent defeat to be a setback, only a delaying of the inevitable. Bill is fond of making deals with people in which he gives them something they want or thinks they need, and in return, they can be used and likely screwed over by him later so that he can reap even better benefits. As it's said, he would use or possess anyone in order to get what he wants, shown clearly when while possessing the time traveler Blendin, he takes advantage of a distraught, emotional Mabel and tricks her into giving him a dimensional rift belonging to their uncle, and then smashes it, creating the tear between the two worlds, bringing about Weirdmageddon. He only appears in a few episodes, but his presence is felt even when he's gone, and while undeniably diabolical and sadistic, he's also hilarious and great fun to watch and speculate about.
Same with Probabilitor the Annoying in "Dungeons, Dungeons & More Dungeons." He's got a bit of an ego for playing a game where he is the main villain, but you have to admit that he's fairly competent.

All For Luz: All For One is a narcissistic psychopath who aims to be the greatest villain of all time. However, it's not hard to see why he might believe that he is. He plays people like pawns, got into a 14-year long war with Emperor Belos nearly ruining his plans, acts as a helpful Evil Mentor for Luz, and is single-handedly responsible for forcing All Might to go into retirement, albeit at the cost of his own life. His incredibly useful superpower to both give and take away Quirks, and the way he passes that knowledge to Luz. Not to mention that, he's not gonna let something like death stop his Evil Plan and get back to his home world and take over The Multiverse.

Star Trek: The Next Generation: The entire cast/crew could be incredibly arrogant and smug in their superiority in the first two seasons. But they had enough awesome moments to carry the show through, and only got better while losing most of their less likable traits, winning themselves a devoted fanbase.
