Hottest Male Characters in Honkai Star Rail, Ranked

Honkai: Star Rail takes players on a Trailblazing journey across the galaxy, with the premise of searching for Stellarons and suppressing them. However, we know that your motivations have nothing to do with the Astral Express' noble dreams.

There's only one reason to spend all the time and Stellar Jades hopping from planet to planet: the pool of gorgeous men significantly increases the more you journey across the galaxy. Here's a round-up of the best sets of XY chromosomes in Honkai: Star Rail for you to peruse in detail.

Who are the hottest men in Honkai Star Rail?

Honkai: Star Rail has some of the best that the male species has to offer. With that said, here's my personal ranking of the hottest male characters in Honkai: Star Rail, based on my preferences. Of course, yours can be different—so share your favorite hotties in the comments below!

#1: Dr. Ratio

Dr. Ratio is everything right in the galaxy and beyond. With a perfectly ratioed face, features more golden than the golden rule itself, and a brain so smart that it's even sexier than his ultra-bulky arms, you won't be able to name anyone else who could top his visual appeal. The best part is that he's claimable for free until Version 2.0, so you can ogle at his everything forever.

#2: Blade

Blade's antagonistic aura is his most attractive quality, as he proudly looks down on all that gaze upon him—you and I included. Impulsive, powerful, and beautiful in a violent way, Blade's character is a rare breed among HoYoverse's usually noble-looking males, giving him the right to sit high in our hot guys' list.

#3: Gallagher

Hear me out. How often do you encounter a gruff-looking security officer with facial hair, broad shoulders, and a disposition so unbothered yet vigilant that all you can think about when you see him in all his security glory is that he's so sexy? Gallagher hails from Penacony's revered Bloodhound Family and has a thing or two for mixing drinks for every occasion, including those shared exclusively with you.

#4: Jing Yuan

General Jing Yuan is the epitome of what everyone wants from Gufeng men: a high-ranking official with long, pale hair tied up in a ponytail that you can't resist undoing. Most importantly, Jing Yuan has a pet cat named Mimi, who he writes about in his diary.

I was pleasantly surprised after finding out that Jing Yuan was featured in a Japanese magazine called anan, which is normally reserved for 3D men. It seems that true hotness can truly transcend across the galaxy.

#5: Imbibitor Lunae

All hail the Imbibitor Lunae, a high elder of The Xianzhou Luofu, an important member of the Vidyadhara, and Dan Heng's more dashing counterpart. Well, he's technically Dan Heng—but the extra length of hair is enough to bump him up our hot guys' tier list. What's not to love in the noble, charismatic, and beautiful imagery that you have the opportunity to feast your eyes upon, thanks to the ingenious designers who decided that Dan Heng was too boring to be left as-is?

#6: Adventurine

The IPC is full of unhinged and strange fellows, but that's what makes them all the more charming. Adventurine is a senior manager of the IPC's Strategic Investment Department, which means one thing: he's loaded. If you're looking for a hot sugar daddy, look no further than Adventurine—though you'll have to put up with his terrible attitude.

#7: Argenti

While the waifu lovers have been able to enjoy Himeko's red-haired girl boss energy since Honkai: Star Rail's launch, it was only recently that husbando enjoyers were offered an equally beautiful red-haired man named Argenti. As a member of the Knights of Beauty, Argenti offers an irresistibly sensible personality, wholly embracing what it means to be a beautiful man.

#8: Luocha

There are very few things in the galaxy that can beat Luocha's undeniably regal figure. With perfectly conditioned hair and a face that screams beautiful and handsome and everything right in the universe, Luocha is the gold standard that all men strive to be but never achieve. While the fact that he carries a coffin around is quite alarming, all is well if you can accept this small peculiarity.

#9: Dan Heng

Dan Heng has the looks of a male lead but the personality of a second lead, which makes him a top-tier husbando in every angle. His dry jokes are as amazing as his abs, and his face is so ordinary that it's amazing—because an overly-embellished man clearly isn't for everyone.

#10: Caelus

Despite being the male main lead, Caelus doesn't fit into the typical MC archetype. For one, his hair isn't a shade of blue or red, and he doesn't have your run-of-the-mill "I'm about to save the world" appeal that somehow seeps into every RPG MC's persona. Instead, Caelus is actually hot, with a dashing blend of silver and gold, and a customizable personality that can be even drier than Dan Heng. He's so amazing that we regret putting him this low on the list.

#11: Welt

You can call him Uncle, Daddy, or simply Welt Yang. Not every thirsty simp is looking for a dashing husbando in his 20's, hence why Welt is an indispensable character who appeals to everyone looking to settle down with someone who has a fully-developed frontal lobe. He might no longer be the sovereign of Anti-Entropy, but he's still the sovereign of our hearts.

#12: Luka

Luka suffers from the stereotypical male lead syndrome, from his fiery red hair to his overclocked optimism that brings hope to all that he meets. But there's nothing wrong with liking someone who acts so much like a male lead that he makes Caelus look like the edgy side character. After all, he doesn't disappoint in the looks department—even while looking like five hundred other characters you can name.

#13: Gepard

Don't get us wrong: Gepard is hot. The problem is that the galaxy has so many hotties, that the bar has been set a bit too high for Landau's little brother. Gepard suffers from the ordinary knight complex, as he simply looks like every other tank in any game: blonde, heavily armored, and sometimes straight-laced. What you'll probably fall in love with is his absolutely golden personality—which culminated in casually humming his sister's tunes and trying his luck in the art industry.

#14: Sampo

Sampo is theoretically hot—just look at those abs, that butt, and the hint of skin barely contained at the sides of his tiny waist. But there's something about Sampo that places him low in our hot guys' tier list. Perhaps it's his overly suspicious face or his absolutely jarring voice. Whatever it is, Sampo Koski is clearly not our favorite.

#15: Yanqing

Yanqing isn't bad looking by any means, he's just a little too youthful to be called hot. He's definitely on his way to topping the galaxy in the looks department, but perhaps it's safer to wait a few years. For now, it's best to support him from the sidelines as he focuses on his sword skills.

#16: Arlan

Much like Yanqing, Arlan's appeal is far too youthful to be called hot. But it's free to imagine an older Arlan, who'll probably captivate the galaxy with his beauty. For now, he lives in our hearts rent-free as a precious little brother who must be protected at all costs, and because he's besties with Peppy. If we stick close to Arlan, we'll win Peppy's favor too, obviously.
