Anime husbandos are known for their dashing good looks and impressive combat skills. Though they have a wide range of personalities, most are compassionate. However, a select few put their mercy aside and opt for ruthlessness instead.
Ruthless anime husbandos fight with venom in their hearts. They do not offer second chances, nor do they show any mercy. Instead, these anime males use whatever means necessary to protect their loved ones and make a point to their enemies. They continue to fight until their opponents are destroyed. The methods may be different, but their lack of compassion is the same.
