Do you mind if I ask your top 10 favorite characters (can be male or female) from all of the media that you loved (can be anime, books, movies or tv series)? And why do you love them? Thanks....

ooh this is a tough one! this list is not an objective ranking, my fave characters shuffle up and down depending on what sort of media i’m into at the moment^^

elliot alderson (mr robot): he’s so driven and determined but makes so many mistakes. he goes through wonderful character development and i love his process of working through his trauma.

lelouch (code geass): the original magnificent bastard. some people think he’s a bit extra or too overpowered, but that’s kind of the appeal of lelouch. he’s such a...rootable character? you always kind of want to see what he’s gonna do next and how he’s gonna win.

xie lian (heaven official’s blessing): he’s not the character archetype i normally like but i love how he clings onto this core of kindness despite how awful his life has been and ultimately that kindness is what saves him!

qi yan (clear and muddy loss of love): again, another intelligent manipulative character who has to balance love and revenge. i love that she gets the whole count of monte cristo treatment, in infiltrating a family and carrying out revenge, and her constant struggle between attaining revenge and loving jingnu is just...really satisfying(?) to read.

jaime lannister (asoiaf): his arc in the books is still my favourite part of asoiaf. i love his journey from someone who’s apathetic and ready to do awful things to preserve his position to someone who’s not a good person but is trying to be better. the chapters where he loses his hand and tries to cope are still some of my all-time fave book scenes.

kurapika (hunter x hunter): ahaha i think he’s like...the third revenge seeker on this list? just like qi yan i like his struggle between revenge and moving on. i like how logical and single-minded he is (and his powers are so cool)

azula (atla): she’s been one of my favourite characters for nearly....ten years now? maybe ever since i first watched avatar as a kid. i just latched onto her immediately. i love her duality of being this ruthless badass prodigy and also a fourteen year old girl who’s kind of socially awkward and doesn’t know how to interact in terms not related to warfare or hierarchy. forever mad that she got put into an asylum(!) in the comics.

catra (she-ra): she’s so messed up and she hurts everyone around her because of it and i loved that she got a happy ending in the end.

laurent (captive prince): he can be so manipulative and ruthless and i love that he can also be caring when his defense mechanisms are down.

izaya (durarara): he’s so awful and so unapologetic about it? and whenever he appears in the narrative you know something chaotic and hilarious or horrible is about to happen.

honourable mentions: tommy shelby (peaky blinders), light (death note), cersei (asoiaf), jon snow (asoiaf), eugenides (queen’s thief), rin (the poppy war)
