Do you have any tips on drawing the buffer characters from dr? Like Sakura or Gonta?

The buff characters in DR are highly exaggerated and top-heavy. They have very wide shoulders and a very thick neck. However, their faces are slightly more realistically proportioned with smaller eyes, a more defined nose, and less of a pointy chin/soft jawline.

The general shape is a triangle from the shoulders to a surprisingly thin waist.

There is still diversity within the characters. While they all have the same characteristics I’ve noted, Gonta has a rounder chest and arms while having a narrower chin and shoulders. Nekomaru is a lot more squared with a thicker waist and looking a bit more uniform across his body. Sakura is a definite triangle with very wide shoulders and a very thin waist in comparison. She has a thicker neck and rounder shoulders.

Looking at general tutorials or references on muscle helps when trying to draw the muscles themselves if you have bare arms or a bare chest.
