Sissel
Fun personality and he plays off the other characters super well. I also love how his curiosity is used for foreshadowing.

Oersted
Tragic heroes are great, and Oersted is the best of the bunch. His ending with Pogo is also better than it should be.

Battler Ushiromiya
He's a dumbass and a perv, but he's entertaining and has a great character arc. I also love his rivalry with Agent 47.

Kazuma Kiryu
Kiryu's maturity and stoicism make him really interesting and unique amongst game protagonists. His melancholic mood in Yakuza 5 was also handled exceptionally well, plus he can drive taxis in that one.

Travis Touchdown
He's such a god damn loser but he has an endearing sincerity to him that makes me always root for him. His more mature characterization in Travis Strikes Again was also terrific.

Francis York Morgan
York is so weird and eclectic and it's perfect. He's entertaining as all hell whenever he talks since he can switch between a wide variety of topics on a dime.
