Ahh yes. The more I learn about our Tex-chan, the scarier it gets how much her mind works like mine...

Hee, hee ... I sneak up on a lot of folks that way.

In all seriousness, Manji is up there toward one of my fave characters of all time. It's just that my WK Aya/Ran fixation keeps me quite, quite preoccupied.
...
Which, now that I think about it ... is pretty darn scary in its own right.
I can answer for Andy. Sorata from X/1999. He has the baditude and style
that every tragic hero needs. He wins the girl and dies in a blaze of glory.
Plus he never stops smiling, what's not to admire?
My favorite anime character is Manami Sugihara from Sentimental Journey. I mainly grew to like her from playing the Sentimental Graffiti 2 game. When she's optimistic, she has a personality that's very infectious to me. She reminds of the positive attributes of somebody I used to know.
My favorite characters from "regular" anime (if you can call them that) are Haruka and Akane (KimiNozo), Sakura and Rin (Fate/stay night) and Akiha (Tsukihime). I mainly liked them because of their non-anime storylines though.
My favorite character from a completely non-gaming anime is Tsukushi Makino (Hana Yori Dango). Her character was really something.
