    Definitely a better answer than "because they have AURA". Watching a calm kind character lose it hits harder than a wild card. Because controlled chaos is a walking threat while a raging storm is a natural phenomenon. The latter is predictable and can be avoided. However the the former is as dangerous as they choose to be.

      He isn't the type to kill or cause collateral damage unless its necessary but should it be he will. Like it's not harped upon much but basically anyone not a sorcerer still anywhere near the fight with sukuna will be killed by being near jt, yet yuji hasnt given that any thought.
      Yuji will perform acts he considers dirty, like killing transfigurations, or curse users, but there are definitely still lines he hasnt anf wont let himself cross

    The "bad boy" or threat with a kind heart is the ideal peak of masculinity. Think it's also the reason why dating sucks because people want the peak but, go for the bad rather than the good hoping for the good to manifest. If they go for the good then the complaint is they're boring (not "bad" enough).

    Saying Yuji isn’t a typical good guy main character but Luffy is, is crazy. Luffy really isn’t your typical good boy protagonist. That’s actually what I really love abt him. The first chapter he met a dude that was forced to do labor for a pirate for 2 yrs cuz he got on the wrong boat and Luffy called him a dumbass and a coward. When the guy was inspired by luffy to chase after his own dreams and asked luffy if he thinks he can do it, luffy literally just told him “how tf should I know?”. He only helped him escape that pirate after he stood up for his own self first. He’s sometimes really sassy. He constantly threatens to beat up strangers who get on his nerve like that officer in Skypiea who kept accusing him of committing crimes or that old man who insulted him in Arabasta. He doesn’t really gaf abt innocent civilians and freed like thousands of level 6 criminals just bc they’d benefit him in getting his brother back. He never tries to prove to ppl that he’s a “good pirate” and tells them to decide that on their own. He also always uses ppl as human shields in battle like with buggy. And he also has little to no moments of sympathizing with antagonists. On top of all of this he’s considered a bad guy in his own verse and got sent to jail before. Yuji on the other hand is more of a good guy than luffy. He feels bad killing his own enemies and constantly has a hard time facing curses bc they were humans before so idk where you’re getting this from.

    If the tone of One Piece wasn't so goofy, Luffy would fit that description too.
    He could be conidered even more morally gray because his reason for beating someone is usually that he doesn't like them, not that they aren't good. He usually beats bad guys though because he is a good guy.
    But if the thing all of those three share is that they are good guys despite having been through stuff and that they have no problem with fucking their enemies up then Luffy definitely fits that description too.

    I‘m very fond of Tanjiro Kamado. Even in his bloody, cruel world full of demons.
    He doesn’t see a reason to mindlessly slaughter the monsters of his world or make them suffer.
    It doesn’t always have to be a butcher like Guts or Eren Yeager that leave guts and rubble.
    Tanjiro is all about chopping off the head and be done with the job.
    He’s smart, charismatic and has responsibility with him all the way in a basket. Tanjiro doesn’t have rather idiotic traits like Luffy and Naruto which of course are also loved.

Yuji ( spoiler) would be similar to Gon but in his dark path ending up like naruto instead of losing his mind like Gon . Yusuke feels a bit like ichigo cool kinda delinquent character who fights for the people he cares about. Chihiro is the one which kinds differs from most shonen protagonist by having revenge as one of his goal but not being consumed by it like Sasuke was.
