What makes Odd Couples odd is that they put together people with conflicting personalities in hopes that hilarity will ensue. A common variant is to have two male characters that are at the opposite ends of masculinity. One guy will be your everyday Manly Man. He's rough, aggressive, and strong (or at least that's how he sees himself). He loves sports, cars, power tools, and general physical activity. The other guy, in contrast, will be much "softer". He loves poetry, literature, art, and is generally more In Touch with His Feminine Side. Occasionally these personality traits extend to their looks. The Manly Man will be tall and well-muscled. The "Sensitive Guy", "Tomgirl", or "Girly Boy" will be slender. Anime usually gives him a Bishōnen look while Western production might go for a nerdier one. If the characters are both meant to be attractive, the manly guy will often be a Hunk, and the sensitive one will often be a Pretty Boy. They may have an Odd Friendship or will be Those Two Guys in an ensemble cast. More frequently they are rivals or even enemies, especially in schoolyard settings. This is because the Manly Man may see the Sensitive Guy as a "wuss" for not displaying stereotypical masculine behavior. Similarly, the Sensitive Guy may resent the Manly Man for perpetuating those stereotypes in the first place. This is very apparent if the two are caught in a Love Triangle as the female will theoretically choose which of them she sees fulfilling the role of "man" best, and they are probably in a male version of a Betty and Veronica dynamic, although who plays each role is relative. Often also used as a way to indicate that works relying on Mars and Venus Gender Contrast still have room for more than one stereotype per gender. These two tend to get into a lot of Ho Yay or Foe Romance Subtext which drives a certain group of fans wild. If they're an actual romantic couple, they'll get Uke and Seme comparisons too. Related to Red Oni, Blue Oni with the Manly Man almost always Red and the Sensitive Guy almost always Blue. Also related to Power Trio with the Manly Man usually the id and the Sensitive Guy usually the superego. In order to qualify, a character must have a large percentage of these traits and/or have their effeminate-ness be remarked on in-universe. Tomboy and Girly Girl would be their Distaff Counterpart, especially if there's only Two Girls to a Team. Expect the Action Hero to be a Manly Man and the Action Survivor to be a Sensitive Guy in an Action Duo. May overlap with Bully and Wimp Pairing. Compare Sibling Yin-Yang and Red Oni, Blue Oni. When the Manly Man happens to be a woman it is a case of Masculine Girl, Feminine Boy. Contrast Emotional Bruiser where they combine. Compare with Noble Male, Roguish Male, where the Noble Male is still considered to be "manly" in a chivalrous fashion, and Masculine–Feminine Gay Couple for explicitly romantic duos. Important Note: While this is usually a straightforward trope, examples can still get subjective in regards to whether or not one of the guys is sensitive enough, the other is manly enough, or whether they're different enough. Keep a few points in mind when editing. The two guys do not have to be polar opposites of each other to fit this trope. The manly man does not have to be macho and eschew everything feminine (Real Men Wear Pink) The sensitive guy does not have to be a total weakling, and does not have to have no masculine traits (Agent Peacock) Using #2 or #3 to justify deleting an example invokes the very same negative stereotypes mentioned above. When you post an example, be sure to explain how one is a sensitive guy and how the other is a manly man, not necessarily which type of sensitive guy and/or which type of manly man each guy is. |

Abraxas (Hrodvitnon): San and Rodan, whom have a little bit of a rivalry with each-other. San is childlike, highly curious, and has a lot of tender moments with his sister (Sensitive Guy). Rodan is aggressive, strong (or at least that's how he likes to see himself), confrontational, and eager for a fight (Manly Man). | |

A Bug's Life has two rare variants of this trope, one of which comes from the evil side, and the other with three characters having this dynamic with each other: There's Hopper, the ruthless, domineering and sadistic leader of the grasshopper gang, and Molt, his ditzy, good-natured and talkative Minion with an F in Evil brother. Among the group of circus bugs, there's the trio of Francis, Slim, and Heimlich. Francis, being a ladybug, is constantly mistaken for a female by anyone he doesn't know, typically leading to him losing his temper with them and threatening them. Of course, you'd certainly do that if you were burdened with being mistaken for the opposite gender of what you are, so him being the Manly Man is certainly justifiable. Slim, meanwhile, is a snarky, neurotic Butt-Monkey who is used as a prop as a result of being a stick insect, and Heimlich is a plump, soft-hearted caterpillar who is the most emotional of the three and shows a longing to become a "beautiful butterfly". |

Kaito Momota and Shuichi Saihara from Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony, with Kaito being loud, passionate, and aggressive. His first significant interaction with Shuichi being punching his cheek for disrespecting Kaede's promise. Shuichi, on the other hand, is notably timider, slips into depressive episodes frequently, and tends to need constant reassurance from others. (He gradually grows out of this.) | |

In the Bleach Fanfic series Heirverse, Gin appears to be the sensitive to Aizen in a very relative sense. He is more emotional, somewhat prone to Tender Tears, quicker to succumb to Cuteness Proximity, and more openly insecure and affectionate. However it's downplayed in Subtext where the reader can see that Aizen really Not So Above It All. Occasionally Invoked by Gin. Then CF happens. | |

In Mozart's The Magic Flute, Tamino and Papageno tend to come across this way, though how much depends on the production. Ironically, Tamino, the Manly Man (even though he faints at the sight of a big snake), is a light tenor role, while Papageno, the Sensitive Guy, is a baritone. | |

The Hunchback of Notre Dame: Phoebus, the manly Noble Top Enforcer, and Quasimodo the Gentle Giant. The two male gargoyles Victor and Hugo also qualify. Victor is the more emotional and sensitive of the two while Hugo is the more reckless and aloof of them. Ironically it is manly man Hugo who enters into a same-gendered romance with Esmeralda's male pet goat, Djali. |

John and Dave of Homestuck. John is a Pollyanna who staunchly believes in the power of friendship. Dave is a Stoic Deadpan Snarker badass. The trope is reflected even more strongly with their respective biological fathers Jake and Dirk. Dirk is a stoic, aggressive asshole and probably the most traditionally masculine character in the comic; while Jake is shy and unassertive, likes wearing short shorts, and cries easily. |

Keiichi and Satoshi from Higurashi: When They Cry are presented in this fashion despite never interacting (except for in an anime OVA that ended up being All Just a Dream). They're foils to each other and Keiichi is very similar to Satoshi. Satoshi has a soft color palette of blond hair and, almost pink, red eyes while Keiichi has darker brown hair and blue eyes. Keiichi is somewhat perverted and Hot-Blooded while Satoshi is more mild-mannered. Satoshi is voiced by a woman despite being older than Keiichi and has a softer voice than him as well. | |

The Nostalgia Critic and The Other Guy (Doug and Rob Walker) seem to go for this trope, with Critic being quite girly and The Other Guy much more in control. Or it could be that Doug is the younger brother who is very often either being moe or a total limelight-loving flirt while Rob stays in the background. | |

Weak Hero: Ben is stocky, muscular, and as strong emotionally as he is physically, whereas his best friend Alex is a slender Bishōnen with a lot of self-doubt and angst rolling around his head. Though they both started out as nerds, Rowan grew up to be a boisterous, loud-mouthed bruiser while his buddy Eugene remains a staunch Non-Action Guy and an emotional anchor for the group. There exists a rivalry between Cheongang members Giju and Doyun, due to them being the same age. Doyun is muscular, has a shaven head, and is generally brutish and prideful, whereas Giju is a slender and effiminate man with long hair and make-up. |

Seth in the Pokécity: Downplayed with Seth Anderson and Tim Tim Wilson. While neither of them is particularly masculine, Tim Tim (Manly) is more aggressive than Seth and has very spiky hair. Seth (Sensitive) keeps his hair long (which covers his ears), rarely gets aggressive even when he's angry, loves chocolate, and prefers his coffee quite sweetened. Flosshead and Vinny. Vinny (Sensitive) is mostly a follower and an Extreme Doormat, while Flosshead (Manly) is a malicious Jerkass who raises hell for a cheap laugh. |

The major supporting cops in Zootopia are the leader of the precinct, Chief Bogo, a no-nonsense, curt, intimidating, bossy, muscular, deep-voiced cape buffalo, and the front desk officer, Benjamin Clawhauser, a flamboyant, emotional, sweet, accommodating, rotund, high-voiced cheetah. Their dynamic helps to defy the movie's central stereotypes about savage predators (vs sensitive guy Clawhauser) and meek prey (vs Manly Bogo). | |

Especially prominent in the 20th-anniversary production of Elisabeth, with Mark Seibert as Death in contrast to his Franz Josephs and Rudolfs, with the latter being extremely prominent - Seibert!Death is an aggressive, traditionally masculine being note Most productions have Death leaning feminine/nonbinary. Seibert's version is on the other end of the gender spectrum, only mitigated by his crooning, soft seduction. with a muscular build, and Crown Prince Rudolf is slim, nervous, and hypersensitive. | |

In Brig Scarlet Flamingo, Joseph has a dreamy, poetic disposition, composes and sings songs, owns a drake toy as a keepsake from his Parental Substitute, and is in Courtly Love with a lady he might never see again. Frank is way more down-to-earth, a Hot-Blooded, rash, fearless man of action who prefers to invoke Attack! Attack! Attack! first and think later and who disapproves of sentimentality. Unlike in many examples of the trope, though, it's Joseph who is burly and muscular and Frank who is lithe and slender. The differences in their personalities are among the things that lead to them fighting all the time, but underneath it they are the best of friends. | |

The Lion King: Timon (Manly Man) and Pumbaa (Sensitive Guy). Timon is a meerkat who is sarcastic, reckless, self-centered, and dislikes cross-dressing as shown in the first film. Pumbaa, on the other hand, is a cheerful, emotional, and kind warthog who does seem absent-minded at first but is shown to be very cautious and he crosses dresses a lot in his and Timon's own series. | |

Fraggle Rock: Gobo and Wembley. While Gobo is an explorer who follows in the footsteps of his brave yet clumsy uncle Travelling Matt and is sometimes stubborn and too eager to do things on his own, Wembley is a youthful, insecure Extreme Doormat (before he learns to stand up for himself) who always finds it difficult to make a choice, because he refuses to hurt anyone's feelings. The two are usually seen as best friends and roommates, much like Mokey and Red. | |

British Kid's comics usually work on the "schoolyard rivals" model. Dennis the Menace bullies Walter the Softy, Bully Beef is regularly outsmarted by Chips, Smudge refuses to be clean like Percival Prim, Tough Nut picks on Softy Centre, etc. Which character the reader is supposed to root for varies from story to story, but it's often the tough kid, further perpetuating the stereotype. | |

A twofer in Demo Reel with Donnie DuPre and Carl Copenhagan, and Tacoma Narrows and Quinn. Donnie was a Cuddle Bug queerball who had no complaints with wearing eyeliner and lipstick, while Carl used to work with The Stasi and thought everything could be solved by shooting at it. Tacoma was a Nice Guy whose voice gets mistaken for his mother's sister, plus he was delighted to hear that he didn't look bad in a dress, while Quinn was a purely Irish Good Is Not Nice Blood Knight. | |

Monster Prom has many variations of it: Among the player characters, Oz/Yellow is a meek and shy Pretty Boy and a Humanoid Abomination, while Brian/Green is a deadpan guy with attitude and a Hunk zombie. Among the Love Interest characters, Liam, Damien and Scott have a varied dynamic: Liam is an artist with slim looks and a Deadpan Snarker being a sensitive guy to the other two manly men. However, among the other two, Scott is a Kindhearted Simpleton Lovable Jock, while Damien is a Bad Boy who likes to cause destruction and mayhem, so among the two, the former is a sensitive guy to the latter's manly man. |

From hololive's HOLOSTARS branch: Regis Altare and Axel Syrios, respectively. The former is soft-spoken in nature, loves cute things, tends to use cutesy emoticons in his tweets, and plays the cello, while the latter is a Blood Knight who frequently swears and veers into usage of Vulgar Humor. Gavis Bettel and Josuiji Shinri play with this trope. Bettel has a Pretty Boy design with a slim build, unironically enjoys the Barbie films, and is associated with the color pink, but he's also incredibly loud, foul-mouthed, and prone to raving like a madman when things go south. Shinri is one of the physically stronger members of Tempus, sporting a muscular build and a Baritone of Strength, but he's gentle and warmhearted in nature, owns a few plushies, and isn't afraid to cry during emotional moments in games. |

Tedd is shorter, inventive, and has an androgynous appearance.

Asterix and Obelix, although their roles aren't what you'd think by looking at them. Asterix is smaller and physically weaker but has a hard-headed, mature, and quite a sneaky personality. He is a good swordsman, enjoys one-upping the Romans but doesn't mess with them outside of an actual need to, and is more flirtatious and in-control around women than Obelix. Obelix is larger and stronger but is mostly written to show off his cute, innocent traits, with even his love of punching Romans coming from a place of genuine, childlike appreciation for how much fun it is rather than any sadism. He also has a sweet little dog that he's dedicated to and tends to cry and fall in love easily. | |

Coco: Héctor and Ernesto, in life. Héctor was the sensitive song writer who intended to give up on his dream of being famous to go back to his family, while Ernesto was the macho singer who was alright with murdering his best friend to achieve fame and fortune. This also comes through in the way both he and Ernesto sing and play music; Ernesto plays and sings in a loud, bombastic way, while Héctor's playing and singing is much more soft and tender. It's also visible in their physiques, as (both alive and skeletal,) Ernesto is noticeably burlier. | |

Lilo & Stitch: The two aliens Jumba and Pleakley. Jumba is manly due to his love for science, dressing in more manly clothes, and having a more impulsive approach to finishing missions while Pleakley is an emotional, nonviolent Wholesome Crossdresser who has a lot of campy interests and tries to find a more reasonable and nonviolent approach to completing tasks. In the later films and series, Gantu and Reuben (Experiment 625). Gantu is the more hot-headed and reckless of the two as evidenced by his actions and voice while Reuben, despite being a Deadpan Snarker is much nicer and more interested in making sandwiches than capturing experiments. |
