This trope is under discussion in the Trope Repair Shop. A Bespectacled Bastard Boyfriend (in otaku terminology, kichiku megane, literally "brutal glasses") is a male love interest whose defining traits are that he is cold, cruel, and abusive to his romantic partner in a manner intended to be kinky and appealing to the audience, and that he wears glasses, which indicates that he is also smart, sophisticated, and successful. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })This trope runs on Fetish Fuel, so don't expect anything close to a realistic depiction of abuse. This is purely a fantasy of a strong, very desirable, dominant man who has (or wants) complete control over his partner, especially sexually, and the domination and emotional abuse is intended to be sexy (and often an expression of romantic feelings). Thus, if you are a good-looking male character who wears glasses, some fans will turn you into this, regardless of your personality. The character type requires that the character be a possible Love Interest; if there's no hope that the opposite party will ever reciprocate, he's probably just a Stalker with a Crush or a Jerkass. A Bespectacled Bastard Boyfriend typically has a cool, sophisticated, or commanding way of speaking, an evil little smile, and an expensive suit. They are popular in media directed at a female audience. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The parent trope is Bastard Boyfriend (the "kichiku" part of kichiku megane). See also Evil Is Sexy and All Girls Want Bad Boys, which are the foundations of this character. For calm, sweet guys with glasses, see Stoic Spectacles. For nasties in glasses minus the kinky romance angle, see Four Eyes, Zero Soul. Occasionally exhibit Scary Shiny Glasses, but his love interest probably thinks Glasses Are Sexy. |

Nishiki Nishio from Tokyo Ghoul is set up to seem like one, but actually subverts it. He's introduced as a hostile, snarky Ghoul with Scary Shiny Glasses that attacks Kaneki for simply being in the wrong place at the wrong time. He's next seen making out with a girl in a classroom, and plays it off casually. It's only later that we learn she's actually his human girlfriend, Kimi. While he's rude to even those he considers friends, he's hopelessly devoted to Kimi and would do anything to protect her. When Kaneki helps rescue her, Nishiki makes a Heel–Face Turn and becomes one of his close friends out of gratitude. | |

Reisi Munakata, the Blue King in K, often evokes this type, particularly in his dealings with Kuroh Yatogami - for example, early in the second season, when he offers Kuroh's clan protection and Kuroh turns him down, and he backs Kuroh against the wall and tells him in a low whisper, "But I thought we had excellent chemistry together." Reisi is actually a good person who cares about others and protects them... but it's easy to miss than and think that he's this type. | |

Spray, the creators of Gakuen Heaven and Kichiku Megane, really love this trope. (Or, in these cases, scenario writer Tamami who wrote both games really loves it). It also appears in their other Boys' Love games Piyotan and Steal. | |

The final character design of Ogata from Hikaru no Go looks like one of these, especially when wearing the white suit he apparently uses for all formal occasions, and is, at best, a Deadpan Snarker. Since he gets obsessed with the lead's connection to 'Sai', the netgo star who's really a ghost playing through the kid, he also gets pedo vibes, and that's enough for large segments of the fandom to see him as this. He's actually visibly a very proud, deeply socially awkward, and highly selfish geeky guy in his thirties, whose personal life extends to his old sensei and his tropical fish, but as the only living, attractive, fully-adult male in the show, he became a bit of an Mr. Fanservice piece, and the fans invoked this trope. |

Neon Genesis Evangelion: Gendo Ikari counts in this case, though in the two on-screen relationships we see in him, he treats them both with an extremely cruel indifference rather than outright abuse. Completely averted with his wife Yui, who is The Lost Lenore. | |

Both Osamu and Shibuya from Bokura no Hentai are deconstructions of this trope. They're handsome glasses-wearing middle school boys. Marika is infatuated with Osamu and Osamu has a crush on his senpai Shibuya, but neither relationships turn out well. Shibuya is a homophobic jerk who bullies Osamu and only wants to interact with him when he's crossdressing and he wants sex. Osamu eventually gets fed up with him and leaves him, not before breaking his glasses and calling him out. Osamu himself has a lot of baggage due to his Dark and Troubled Past. His relationships with Marika (and several of the male characters) are unhealthy and he is too sexual for Marika's comfort. Marika eventually gives up on him and has a Maybe Ever After with the Nice Guy Satoshi. | |

Subverted in Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc. The severely unstable Shrinking Violet and romance novelist Touko Fukawa desperately wants the rich, intelligent, and haughty Byakura Togami to be one for her. However, despite having the personality for this type, Togami simply doesn't care about Fukawa one way or the other. He alternates between being repelled by her advances and using her obsession to further his own (non-romantic) ends. | |

Muraki in Descendants of Darkness: A Stalker with a Crush who has a definite thing for Tsuzuki; unfortunately for Tsuzuki, his hobbies include rape, murder, and cutting people up while they're still alive, and Tsuzuki is willing to pull a Taking You with Me to get rid of him (they both survive). He is, however, very pretty and sexy as long as he styles his hair correctly, so there is much Fanfiction where he is this trope instead. Tatsumi certainly looks the part, although, in practice, he is actually a decent person (if having quite the Sugar-and-Ice Personality). And since he cares a lot for Tsuzuki, Tatsumi is most unhappy about Muraki's little fixation with him. | |

At some point, the main character in The Golden Feather fantasizes about being this towards his crush. Right in the middle of class, with a NSFW sequence and everything. Keep in mind his crush is 1) male 2) straight 3) the polar opposite of nice, and thus, of course, it all stays a fantasy. | |
