There's Generic Cuteness, the Ridiculously Cute Critter, and the Moe. And then there's these guys. Creatures who are different from other creatures. OK, they look strange. Maybe they're deformed. They can even look monstrous. However, they are also endearing, kind, and sweet. Maybe they retain a few Ridiculously Cute Critter traits, like big eyes or little awkward legs. Maybe they're The Woobie. Maybe it is simply that their lovely personality overrides any disgust at their physical appearance. Maybe they're stylized and don't look too realistic. In short, even though they should not be cute by any sense of the word they are anyway. Indeed, many times these characters are so ugly, they're just adorable. There are some who argue that this trope has much to do with parental instinct. Consider: very young human babies aren't conventionally cute at all; that takes a few months. They come into the world as discolored wrinkly blobs that scream like the world is ending whenever anything upsets them. There's a joke that they all look like Winston Churchill. And yet, all these traits seem to say, "Gotta love me!" "Busukawaii" is a name in Japanese for fans of these characters. Not to be confused with Grotesque Cute, which is generally when evil things are done by (or to) conventionally cute things. Compare The Grotesque, Gonk, Unkempt Beauty, Freaky Is Cool, Face of a Thug, Creepy Cute, and the nicer versions of Fluffy the Terrible. But, see also What Measure Is a Non-Cute? and Beauty Equals Goodness as those tropes can probably affect these characters, whether it's direct or not. See Grotesque Gallery for what can happen when character designers try for this kind of appeal and fail. Contrast Beauty Is Bad. |

Watchmen: Many fangirls consider the "fascinatingly ugly" Walter Kovacs, AKA Rorschach, the cutest character in the series. This may be more in North America's fandom versus Europe, as the ginger haired appearance carries a more negative connotation across the pond compared to in Canada and America where the awkward appearance is often considered to be rather sweet and endearing. | |

X-Men: Nightcrawler's demonic appearance doesn't exactly falls under the classic definition of "beautiful", yet he's one of the most appreciated Mr. Fanservice among the X-Men; he's basically the male version of a Cute Monster Girl. Classic Excalibur artist/writer Alan Davis may have something to do with this. Originally, Dave Cockrum designed Nightcrawler to look pretty scary as a contrast to his out-going personality (in fact, his very first design was some kind of bat-creature and was so spooky, Marvel nixed the idea). Alan Davis decided to turn him into a handsome swashbuckler type modeled after Errol Flynn. Broo a mutant Brood that feels compassion and other emotions. Although initially in custody of S.W.O.R.D. he was allowed to join Wolverine's school after he grew older, he has a reserved, polite and nerdy intellectual type personality makes Broo endearingly adorable. |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (IDW): Jim the Cave Troll. Sure he's a hulking brute who could easily crush a pony if he wanted to, but he's so innocent and carefree it's hard not to see him as anything other than the softie he really is. And he genuinely did love the Mane Six's company. The uncorrupted moon bunny in Issue #7. Fluttershy certainly thinks so. |

SCP Foundation: There have been times where SCP-682 could be considered "cute", such as his interaction with the benevolent Blob Monster, SCP-999 or his exposure to rage-inducing Creepy Child, SCP-053. SCP-191 could also be seen in this light. Although in her case its mostly because people feel sorry for her. Instances of SCP-040-1, the creations of SCP-040, could also be seen like this. SCP-811's description makes her sound like a revolting predatory beast, but her interview log makes her sound like a little child with a cute speech impediment. SCP-1471a is described as "cute" (in a macabre sort of way) by those affected by SCP-1471 after they get over its Nightmare Face. Keep in mind that it is a shadowy Humanoid Abomination with black hair and a dog's skull for a face that stalks you through texted-pictures and reflections. Its harmless, and is implied to be created as a companion for lonely people, but it is still unnerving to see for some. SCP-1550, just look at it◊. |

The baby is A Half-Human Hybrid that looks like a cross between a human and a cephalopod with big doe eyes, a cute little bunch of tentacles where the human mouth would be, and a bunch of tentacles with an eye on each one's tip. | |

Homestuck: All of the Trolls other than Nepeta Leijon and Tavros Nitram (who are more just plain cute) count too. Exaggerated when we see them as wrigglers. And look what would happen if they would godtier. Who knew little rainbow-colored maggot things could be so cute? Some of the lusii may count too. Tinkerbull is under this category, though he's more just plain adorable. Aurthour, the weird-looking centaur-cow-man lusus of Equius, fits better. He's definitely not cute by normal standards, but his mannerisms help him to achieve a similar effect. Kanaya's lusus definitely falls under this. It's basically a truly gigantic winged bug with a skull for a face. But she's such a caring guardian to Kanaya! Look at her as a sprite comforting Kanaya◊. And Kanaya mentions reading stories to her on 12th Perigee's Eve. Aww. This is the only way to describe how Calliope looks. One is led to believe that she is a different and more attractive-looking species right up to her reveal, making your first reaction be "What the hell is that thing!?", but then you realize that she's adorable. About half the fanbase thinks her brother Caliborn, the juvenile form of Lord English, is almost as adorable. How can you honestly take this face◊ seriously as that of the angel of double-death? Some of the members of the Midnight Crew and the Felt are rather endearing-looking in a cartoony sort of way, despite being alien gangsters. Clubs Deuce especially so. |

The Order of the Stick: Due to the art style, many normally horrific monsters can turn out this way. For example, Tsukiko apparently sleeps with a plushie version of Xykon, and the instant that comic appeared all the fans wanted one. For context, Xykon is an undead Magnificent Bastard. He's also an adorably drawn stick figure skeleton with expressive glowing eye-sockets, a cheerful-looking skeletal grin, and a little golden crown floating just above his head. In plushie form, too cute for words. | |

Salad Fingers: Salad Fingers himself is green, yellow-teethed, bug-eyed, misshapen and, if he really Was Once a Man, by now he's unrecognisable as one. Still, those big eyes are kinda puppy-doggish at times and he is a strangely wholesome character in personality...most of the time. The bug-eyed lumpy-headed kid from episode four was strangely endearing. |

Ramsay the vortisaur in Big Finish Doctor Who, apparently. He's basically some sort of extradimensional pterosaur with Ramsay Mac Donald's face (according to Charley) and a taste for Time Lord blood. Everyone who meets him inevitably calls him a monster, then starts cooing over him and trying to make a pet of him. Even a gruff-sounding member of the RAF decides he'd make a lovely family pet. | |

Dungeons & Dragons: Eyeball beholderkin have huge central eyes, magic-beam-shooting eyestalks, and fanged mouths like their larger, more dangerous relatives — and are about the size of large grapefruit. Imps◊ and quasits◊, the smallest of devils and demons respectively. Most baby dragons don't look very much better than their adult forms, but are still able to pull this off. Especially blue dragons, for some reason. Blue dragon wyrmlings◊ have huge eyes, faces that look like they've run face-first into a brick wall, big ears (which no other chromatic dragon has) and nubby horns. They're like spiky blue pugs the size of golden retrievers. Pseudodragons◊, also described as having "the personality of a common housecat". D'awww, I want one! Flumphs embody this trait. Think of a pancake crossed with an octopus floating around and you've got the idea. Goblins and kobolds. Two races of three-foot-tall people whose apparent racial destiny is to be killed by first-level PCs — you have to feel for them a little. Otyughs may be stalked eyed dragon monsters that wallow in other monster's poop but who can stay mad at that happy grin◊? The infamous rust monster◊ resembles a giant mix of a cockroach and an armadillo, but according to the 5th Edition Monster Manual, they're very docile and friendly creatures that make great pets as long as one has no metal on them. Awwwww...No wonder one was chosen as the mascot for Rusty and Co.. |

Something*Positive: Choo Choo Bear has to fall under this trope. A hairless cat, over thirty years old, whose cancer treatments in his younger days reduced his bones to a gelatinous substance that let him contort into various shapes and travel through sewage pipes. He's a bit of a freak, but he's so %*!& cute that he gets forgiven for just about anything he does, up to and including suspected murder. | |

The Inhumans: Lockjaw, the giant pug-like pet dog of the Inhuman royal family. Although the size of a hippo, he's as cute as any pug. It's also sort of weird, since at one point it was suggested he actually is an Inhuman who simply got hit with the ugly stick very hard by Terrigenesis. This was retconned later... re-creating the plothole as to just where the Inhumans got him anyway (Terrigenesis does not affect animals). | |

Respawn of the Dead: Stumpy. Despite being dry to the bones, down three limbs and A ZOMBIE, he manages to be somewhat adorable. In the fic, you can still remember your own life before becoming a zombie. Stumpy here manages to make out a cute "bonk" after holding Scout's bat. Which makes it all the more Tear-jerking when Stumpy has to be Mercy Killed by the Medic. |

All of the Trolls other than Nepeta Leijon and Tavros Nitram (who are more just plain cute) count too. Exaggerated when we see them as wrigglers. And look what would happen if they would godtier. Who knew little rainbow-colored maggot things could be so cute? | |

The Trimmings in Vita Carnis are made out of red, slimy flesh like all the other species of Vita Carnis and look like oversized bugs made from the body parts of dead babies, then there's the sounds they make. However, they are completely harmless and, in fact, are much more afraid of us than we are of them. They are social, docile and are even kept as pets by some. Admit it, this video does somewhat make you wish you had a pet Trimming, doesn't it? Of course, Ugly Cute creature=Ugly adorable plushie. Meat Snakes are also very strong on the Ugly part, not only being Exactly What It Says on the Tin, but also growing to huge sizes, eating carcasses and changing the shape of its head based on the last skull it ate (yes, these things can show up donning a humanoid face...) But the fact they are also harmless and, in fact, can be used for benefits like garbage disposal and sanitation does make them kinda cute. Series creator DarÃan Quilloy himself uses an online avatar that basically looks like a charred corpse with googly eyes and a perpetual smile on its face. |

Gunnerkrigg Court: Zimmy has very nearly More Teeth than the Osmond Family, greyish skin, hair like a Stringy-Haired Ghost Girl, inexplicable black stuff that usually covers her eyes (which are bright red under all that), and is strange, mean, and prickly and enjoys chasing rats — but there's a certain charm to her appearance and she has her nice moments, and is therefore rather adorable. Plus, her relationship with Gamma is very, very sweet. I couldn't help but go "awww" when Zimmy and Annie arrived where Gamma was in Zimmy's dark, terrifying hallucination (which seems to come right off a Silent Hill game), and Gamma was sleeping peacefully on top of a giant pile of cute, brightly colored stuffed toys, representing just how much she means to Zimmy. | |

Johnny the Homicidal Maniac: Wobbly Headed Bob◊. It's only obvious that between JTHM and Invader Zim that Jhonen Vasquez is a master at this trope. Johnny himself applies. He is uncannily skinny and tall, moves like a bug and has all kinds of beautifully grotesque facial expressions. But the moments where his emotions genuinely shine through makes him loveable to some audiences. |

However, his description of it is very... odd, with it being vaguely spherical, with stubbly little nubs for limbs are large, staring 'duck eyes', until even Cecil is forced to admit it might not be cute so much as just plain weird. Of course, after what it does to the station cat, its hard to think of it as cute in any capacity. | |

The Walten Files: Like all the other Showstoppers in the series, Sha the sheep and Banny the bunny are Uncanny Valley animatronics that, in the present day, are dismantled and twisted. However, they're still a sheep and a purple bunny respectively. Banny's wide-open eyes still have some of that Genki Girl energy in them, while Sha still has some of her old features as the Showstoppers' pretty girl, just ask a portion of the fans and they'll tell you she's still beautiful. One cutscene from the game-within-a-show Bunnyfarm features the Nice Girl Holly, a horse with a welcoming demeanor that still has a slightly wall-eyed look and a crooked face. Despite this, Banny calls her "pretty". Then there are the adorable plushies based on the gruesome Showstoppers. |

Don't Hug Me I'm Scared: The three puppets are: a yellow humanoid with overalls and a mullet cut, a duck with a suit, and a Cthulhumanoid with spaghetti as a face and dull eyes. For some reason, they manage to be attaching. Some teachers count as well: Shrignold may have a funny face, they're also a butterfly; Colin manages to be cute despite having square features; and even the Spinach Can's dorky looks have this effect too. Warren from the TV show. He is deliberately designed to be a Gonk with blemishes covering his body, bulging eyes and messy teeth and the main trio + Colin make multiple insults about his appearance. Despite that, there are some fans out there who think he is oddly endearing, thanks to his pathetic and tragic existence and a somewhat cute voice; even the aformentioned eyes and teeth are seen as more cute than anything to some. That said, you'd be hard-pressed to find anyone who finds his true form "cute" in any way. |
