Parn & Deedlit together, you just can't really have one without the other. They would also qualify as my favorite anime "Couple". Such great characters. Record of Lodoss War is fairly old at this point, and i'm sure there are some younger viewers out there who have never even heard of it, but if you like Fantasy based anime, it's required viewing imo.

+1. A shame they weren't the focus in Chronicles of the Heroic Knight.

My faith in anime GAF has been restored by this thread. I feel I should participate in GAF anime threads more now instead of going off site to talk animu and mango.
 
Where's Harlock?

Where's Seiya?

Where's Amuro and Casval?

Where's Duke Freed and Kouji?

Where's Ryoma, Hayato and Benkei?

You guys make me feel old and sad that none of the classic guys get mentioned.

At least Kenshiro got somes props.

Gintoki from Gintama

Hilarious and always awesome

Gonna agree. Of all the badasses that came to mind, I didn't feel any of them really had as many dimensions as Gin. The only character that comes close would be L from death note.

Seiya is by far the most boring of the 5 main Knights.
 

Raging Spaniard

If they are Dutch, upright and breathing they are more racist than your favorite player
The dad from FLCL (Kamon!). His English voice is the best VA job ever:

Mushashi (Takezo) from Vagabond. Amazing transformation as the series goes on

Kamina from Gurren Lagann, a boisterous badass who can back it up.

Takamura (Hajime no Ippo) Another true badass with impeccable comedic timing. His range of expressions is fantastic

Well I'm sure we all can guess where you do go.
 
There's a TON, but my recent favorite would probably have to be Simon from Gurren Lagann.

Never before have I seen a character go from loser to badass in such an epic way.

Not the chans. Dedicated anime forums and such.

I always felt Mido Ban broke away from the brooding protagonist role just enough to make him unique.

Vash will likely always be my favorite. Trigun essentially got me really interested in the anime world, and it remains my favorite animated series of all time.
I felt he was a really well developed character, and really grew as the series progressed. I still prefer JYB's delivery to the original japanese. Every time I try to listen to the japanese dub it just doesn't click with me.
Wolfwood's pretty awesome too, though.
 

Pandaman

Everything is moe to me
someone should write a paper on the relationship between the age of a thread and the number of images per post in these favourite threads.
 
That lack of Love for Roy Focker makes me feel old. He was a hero and the way he dies in the series is amazing. Wasn't he also the first character in Anime to participate in a interracial relationship? He just wanted to play a tune for his woman one last time.

Did you watch space battleship yamato last year btw? ;3
 
I have difficulty associating with many anime characters, but there are exception. My favorite so far would be Lawrence and Holo from Spice & Wolf. Glad to see Batou mentioned.

Although Naruto is not one of my favorite anime shows, I really like Shikamaru's level-headedness, composure, and portrayal in general.

All my others have been posted already, like Roy Mustang.

I guess Lt. Commander Hughes too.
He dies too quickly in Brotherhood :(.
