Your face can tell a lot about who you are just by what you grow on it. Mustaches are almost an introduction in themselves in the Anime world. It is the face that tells you everything about the person, no matter if it is bushy, sleek, or trimmed. There are many ways to wear a mustache, and there is a debate among professional groomers while animators are having fun with the concept. Here is a list of the top ten Anime characters with recognizable mustaches.
1. Major Alex Louis Armstrong- Full Metal Alchemist
The perfect body gets crowned with an equally impressive handlebar mustache. In the Anime 'FullMetal Alchemist,' his nickname is Strong Arm Alchemist. The Alchemist symbol on his gloves allows him to fight. His appearance may not match his soft personality, but his stylish face tells what he's got.
2. Zeff- One Piece
How can anyone not notice those gold braids on the face? Zeff is the former Cook Pirates' Captain in the Anime series One Piece, which explains his whole look as a Chef. After retiring as a Pirate, he became the head chef and owner of a floating restaurant, Baratie. Zeff got an interesting backstory and role in the series. His mustache developed and grew with him throughout the plot.
3. Spring Mustachio- One Punch Man
Tall, with jet black hair and a suit from top to bottom, you know he is an Englishman with a mustache. Spring Mustachio is one of the lower-ranked A-class heroes. He looks like a dashing swordsman with his short sword and speed. Spring Mustachio is a disciplined and determined fighter who stands even after getting beaten.
4. Celestial Spirit King- Fairy Tail
In the anime Fairy Tail, the Celestial Spirit King has a mustache that is an example of what a God's mustache is like. He is the ruler of the Celestial Spirit World.

He is more of a Lawful Good-type villain.

Besides his impressive broom mustache, Muten Roshi's trademark is his holiday shirts and sunglasses.
6. Gan Fall- One Piece

7. Lord Yupa- Nausicaa Of The Valley Of The Wind
Lord Yupa is the first human character to appear in the Anime Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind.
