List of fictional aromantic characters

This is a list of aromantic characters in fiction, i.e. fictional characters that either self-identify as aromantic or have been identified by outside parties to be aromantic. Listed characters may also be asexual or allosexual (not asexual). Some aromantic people are asexual but some are not.[1] The term aromantic can be used in relation to various sexual identities, such as aromantic bisexual, aromantic heterosexual, aromantic lesbian, aromantic gay man, or aromantic asexual, but it does not relate to sexual orientation, instead focusing on romantic orientation.[2] Aromanticism primarily deals with romantic attraction rather than with sexuality. Some publications have argued that there is an underrepresentation of aromantic people in media,[3] in research,[4] and that they are often misunderstood.[5] Aromantic people often face stigma and are stereotyped with labels such as being afraid of intimacy, heartless, or deluded.[1][6]

Roy HinkleyRussell JohnsonGilligan's Island1964–1967The Professor was also depicted as completely asexual.[44] Russell Johnson has confirmed that it was the producers' intention for his character due to concern from the censors.

"The Skipper is too old, Mr. Howell is already married, and the Professor is only interested in my mind!"
Caduceus ClayTaliesin JaffeCritical Role2018–presentCaduceus is asexual and aromantic. In episode 114 of campaign 2, he states that "[sex] is not really my thing".[45]: 45:28  Player Taliesin Jaffe tweeted in support of Asexual Awareness Week in regards to the character.[46] He confirmed on Talks Machina that he planned on the character being asexual from the beginning but had waited for an organic moment to reveal it.[47]
JaskierJoey BateyThe Witcher2019–presentJaskier, on the show, is canonically portrayed as being on the aromantic spectrum.

More specifically, according to Batey: a sapioromantic[48] (i.e. a greyromantic that only experiences romantic attraction towards certain types of intelligence), panromantic and pansexual[49] character. His greyromantic identity is narratively established in "Reunion" (season 3, episode 3), when Vespula comments: “I’ve cursed you for chasing tails of every kind. Men, women, dwarves, elves, polymorphous…  […] But never have I ever seen you have a crush."

And the sapioromantic aspect of the attraction is shown by having Jaskier very specifically swooning over how intelligent and insightful he perceives Radovid to be, rather than his looks or any other personal characteristic that he has.

Satoru Takahashi Issey Takahashi (高橋 一生) Koisenu Futari (恋せぬふたり) 2022 The main characters of this Japanese drama are Satoru Takahashi and Sakuko Kodama.

Gwenpool Gwenpool November 2015 – Present During writer Kelly Thompson's run on West Coast Avengers (2018), Gwen entered into a romantic relationship with Quentin Quire, however, Gwen later admits that she only did so because she felt that a romantic plot would make her less of a supporting character in the metafictional narrative of the series and thus less likely to die.[53][54] In 2023, it was then confirmed that Gwenpool was asexual and aromantic during her story arc in the Love Unlimited series. During this arc, she is in a relationship with Julie Power and discovers what it means to be asexual after Julie suggests the possibility.[55][56] United States
Jughead Jones Jughead October 2015 – June 2017 In 2016, Jughead's orientation was confirmed to be asexual[57] in the stories of Chip Zdarsky (and later Ryan North and Mark Waid) for the Jughead comics as part of the New Riverdale line.[58] Zdarsky said of his run on the book that "the next writer could make him discover girls or boys or both and that's totally fine. There have been iterations of Jughead over the decades where he HAS been interested in girls, so there's room to play around if someone was inclined. For me though, I like an asexual Jughead."[59] He later tweeted that he viewed Jughead as "ace and probably demi-romantic, but for the purposes of his teen years, aro."[60] Both Riverdale fans in the asexual community[61] and Cole Sprouse,[62] who portrays Jughead in The CW's Riverdale, have complained of asexual erasure in mainstream television and expressed desire to see the character's asexuality explored. However, Sprouse later noted that the Jughead Zdarsky created is the only asexual version so far.
