Characters that you like or appreciate.
 

I see there is a " characters you hate or don't like" thread, and it caught a lot of people's attention on here. So, I thought about making this one. So, you can list or name a character and you explain why.

Kraang. He is cool and big and cool.

I have many characters that I like. I may post more of them later in this thread. One of them is Sokka from ATLA. He had no powers, however was smart, funny, and a good leader.

Perhaps it was too many, but the above are my favorite fictional characters of all media from television to film go novels to cross-media.

Why are you using fan-made last names for these characters? They don't have any last names in Pokemon. And the Japanese version of the characters are named Kasumi and Takeshi without any last names either.

I've never heard "Harrison" being used for Brock's last name, but I've seen him referred to as "Brock Slate" before. I thought "Waterflower" was Misty's actual surname in the English version. Had no idea they were fanmade names. Who was the person who came up with them?

Or maybe they genuinely like the character. Just a thought.

They're fan names dating back to 1999 by the earliest pokemon anime fans who were already on the internet at the time writing their shipping fanfiction. Its the same type of people who say Giovanni is Ash's father (when that's also never been the case), and so on and so forth.

This is from the early pokemon fandom days when people thought the anime was going to end in a year or two...not go on for nearly 20 years. :lol:

Waterflower is cannon, but Harrison is optional as I only heard Harrison online and in fan discussions.

Cubed, Giovanni is Ash's father in Pok'emon Live!, but no other version.

Waterflower is not canon. At all. Not even in the english dub.

Geovanni being Ash's father is a fairly common theory, yes. I've also read people saying that Ho-Oh is Ash's father re-incarnated. No idea what their reasoning behind that one is, though :lol:

The entire cast of Daredevil
The entire cast of Flash
Most of the TMNT characters in the New toon excluding creepy Donnie and April. He's just too much man, and April kinda became a mary sue...
The Cast of Avengers
The Cast of Breaking Bad
I like most characters of shows and movies I follow.
The entire cast of the first Rocky Movie. And the second, third, 6th...(screw 4-5) And Creed.

I know, right? It was a pretty cool show, every character was unique and was not defined by a simple thing like "the angry one".

I'm really starting to warm up to these threads, even if they're getting out of hand. :lol: Anyways:

HIM (The Powerpuff Girls)- Mojo is pretty close, but I really like the psychological games this guy plays. He might not be as funny, but has some entertaining moments and always serves as one of the most dangerous foes of the PPG. Additionally, a few of the series' best episodes stem from him, especially Speed Demon.

Silver (Pokemon Gen 2)- Although N is also a great character, Silver was the first instance of a character I loved to hate. He's the first rival in the games to truly be malicious, suffering a superiority complex and desiring to be the greatest trainer ever. He's still my favorite rival due to how his growth is subtle, climaxing with his Golbat evolving into a Crobat in the final battle against him. His theme is upbeat and mysterious too, or in Pokemon Stadium 2 he practically gets Lance's theme. Only thing that sucks is he could have been more of a Johto trainer instead of copying the majority of Blue's team when he was rival in the Kanto games.

Captain America (The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes)- You can have your Hulk, Spider-Man, or Iron-Man but this show solidified Cap as one of my all time favorite heroes. His speeches, his characterization, his relationships with others, and especially his voice by Brian Bloom. Really nothing else to it, just an overall fantastic performance.

Genie (Disney's Aladdin)- A very entertaining performance by the late Robin Williams. Nearly every line Robin gives is improvised with his very best selected into the script and animated. It's because of Robin's role here and other movies that usually put me in a feel good mood whenever sad. Damn, I still hate that he's gone. :cry:

Superman (most media)- I'll leave it at here on why I prefer Superman at times over Batman, but it varies depending on what we're discussing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aGtiinR6ni8

Zero (Mega Man X and Mega Man Zero)- Zero's character development throughout these two respective spin offs made me a fan of the franchise outside the classic series. No other character of the series made me more invested on a story perspective than him, even if he questions what he's fighting for. :lol: (seriously, the X4 dialogue in cutscenes are laughable)

There's more but I'll leave it here for now. So many to choose, yet so hard to keep it slim and explain.

man "Giovanni is Ash's father" that reminds me so much of when I went to Pokemon Live.

Most pokemon fans conspiracy theories from 1998-1999 left their mark on the fandom. The Pokemon fandom is full of ****

I like most of the characters in my favourite tv shows such as Angel, Buffy, tmnt 1987/2003, Dollhouse, Friends, Fraiser, Keeping Up Appearances, One Foot in the Grave, 2 Broke Girls, Don't Trust the b in Apartment 23, etc.

My favorite strawhat pirate after Zoro is probably Luffy. In 3rd place comes Robin, I'd say.

Least favorite is Chopper. I could do without him.

Agent Coulsen. What can I say? The guy is funny.

I tend to like most of the main characters in any show/movie I watch. I mean if you don't like most of the main characters, how can you enjoy watching that particular show?

Agreed. That's why I'm not a fan of the 'big' shows at the moment such as The Walking Dead.

Yeah I often don't get how people can love a show but at the same time go on about how much they "hate" one of the major characters of the series that gets the most screentime and episodes about him or her. I would find that difficult to watch then.
