Yes, there are some anime that feature gay characters with muscular builds. For example, 'Yuri!!! on Ice' has male characters who have a certain level of muscle definition and there are undertones of a romantic relationship between the main characters. It's a popular anime that showcases the story of figure skaters, where the relationship between the two male leads is a significant part of the story.
One is 'No. 6'. It has a post - apocalyptic setting. The two male protagonists, Shion and Nezumi, have a deep relationship. Shion is a smart character, and Nezumi is a more physically strong and street - smart character with a certain muscularity. Their relationship develops as they face various challenges in their world.
A common theme is the struggle against stereotypes. Gay characters with muscular builds often defy the common perception that gay men are weak or less masculine. In these anime stories, they are shown to be strong, both physically and mentally. For instance, in 'Yuri!!! on Ice', Yuri and Viktor break the mold with their relationship and their abilities in figure skating. Another theme is the beauty of male - male relationships. These stories often focus on the emotional depth and the unique bond that can exist between two male characters, which is just as valid and beautiful as any other relationship. In 'Given', the story beautifully portrays the love and connection between the male characters.
Another one could be 'Free! - Iwatobi Swim Club'. It features male swimmers with well - developed muscles. The interactions between the male characters are filled with friendship and camaraderie, which can be interpreted in different ways, and there are many story arcs that focus on their relationships.
Often, they focus on complex relationships. For example, in many such novels, the characters have to deal with society's acceptance or lack thereof. They may face prejudice or internal struggles due to their sexual orientation, which adds depth to the story.
