Vivi of course. Named my cat after him. There is no one in this world who even slightly dislikes Vivi and if you do, no you don't.
Yukari and Ken!! Yukari is such an incredibly written character (and her english VA is so fantastic that it elevates her character even higher) and Ken is one of the best child characters ever written imo (also Nemesis is just the coolest persona ever do not @ me she just is). Yukari & Ken get behind me i will defend you from the weird haters
Ershin. First jrpg creacher I ever loved. Their design is so cute and they have such an interesting role in the story, as well as being funny. Perfect robot.
Every single character in the main party, though who is currently my favourite changes day by day. Primrose is definitely the coolest, but I feel such a connection to Alfyn as well so I often think of him as my fav. But then again I have a fondness for Olberic and Therion was my first protag so I love him as well... I CAN'T DECIDE (but probably primrose or alfyn)
Same as with Octopath 1, I like them all pretty much equally. But I started with Osvald and I'm very fond of him. And Castti is just the coolest. Ochette has so many good support convos as well as just being fantastic, and Temenos is really funny.... I CAN'T DECIDE (but probably osvald or castti. or ochette.)
Terra. She is cool. She is powerful. She is aroace.
Also I love Gau, so all of you gau dislikers have to meet me in the pit unfortunately

Bartz and Krile. Bartz is so genuine and funny and silly, and I got super attached to Krile and felt for her. They have such a wonderful sibling-like dynamic that I adore. I like to think the two of them travel around the world together post-game.
The Wayfinder Trio and especially Aqua. The three of them are so tragic, I love it. I really feel like Birth By Sleep's main trio had the most emotional journey overall in KH, and all of the final battles in BBS really reflect that to me. The final FINAL boss in BBS is so augh (positive)
I saw Alt Drifter and said this is my character now. No i don't know why i'm so attached to her. She's a weird silent protagonist wolf person(?) in a cool blue cape what else can i say
GOOEY MY FRIEND GOOEY
Isabeau was my favourite while playing the game but it was Jonathan who really stuck with me. I just think he's funny. And it's always fun seeing really flawed nice characters.
Lucina of course... Libra... Stahl for some reason... HENRY... Panne... FE Awakening has a lot of characters I like.
Leon, who is just fantastic and such a breath of fresh air. Clair because I adore her. Luthier for having an incredibly cool design and also for being the funniest character in the game (if you've seen the other entries on this list you might see that I have a great love for funny characters)
Linhardt. I always like when male characters gets a healing role because it's a breath of fresh air, but also I just like his weird set of characteristics. Sure he's lazy but more than that he's also insensitive and often even mean. Love him lmao. And the idea of a healer who can't stand blood charms me.
Honorable mention goes to Edelgard, she'd be my favourite if Linhardt didn't exist... probably.

(SPOILER WARNING) Hornet is the coolest character ever. Spider-God-Royalty with dubious morality who runs around killing vessels and guarding a dying kingdom. She's just great. Garama and such.
KH1!Kairi where did you go, come back :'( She was so mischiveous and mysterious in this game, I miss her
I love the main cast immensely, Neku is fantastic of course and so are all the others. Minamimoto is my favourite as well just because of how weird he is. I feel like i say this about every character but he's just really funny.
Ninten my talented 4th dimension-slipping child (see additional info on Earthbound's entry)
Ness my sweet potato child. Both Mother 1 and Earthbound's characterizations are on the light side but they charm me a ton, and the little glimpses of characterization that we DO get (a dialogue line here, a memory there, etc.) is just enough for me to form my own little ideas about them as characters. It's nice :)
The entire main cast. I got very attached to Duster especially for some reason. I like that he gets to just have a bad leg without it being used for some important plot point or something, it's just a part of who he is (I really loved Itoi mentioning that in an interview, it was so nice)
Harry Mason, the icon, the legend. Sometimes a character just charms me for some reason and Harry is one of those characters. He's not a cool special strong protagonist, he's just trying to find his kid man. Loved when he used an alien spaceship to destroy the town of Silent Hill.
I love Silver lmao he's the best rival (and arguably character) in any pkmn game for me. Love his dramatic family history and his delinquent ways. I think his remake design is great but I like his og design even more (long hair!!!)
Elliott is such a funny character to me so of course I love him most. And Krobus of course for being a perfect creature.
SKULL KID and tatl (+ tael, because i like him and would feel mean to leave gim out). Skull Kid is my favourite antagonist in any Zelda game and Tatl is so rude, I adore her. I think most of my favourite loz companions are a little mean, actually (tatl, linebeck, ezlo...)
(some spoilers in this entry) I like FFIV a lot but I also think it has a lot of missed potential. I think I like it more for what it COULD be rather than for what it is. I find Cecil, Rosa and Kain so intruiging I want to cut out like half of the other cast (mostly everyone who have unneccessary fakeout deaths) so they could concentrate more on the main trio (+ Rydia... Edge can be there too I suppose) because they ARE already such great characters and I wish the game used that more. I want to REALLY get into their heads. Anyway with that said Cecil is one of my absolute favourite protagonists in the entire series, love my dramatic moon paladin boy
Wander is so cool and sharp... a mystery. I think about him to this day, to the point that I imagined Wistan in Kazuo Ishiguro's "The Buried Giant" as Wander the entire time I was reading it for some reason. Also read "The Buried Giant". Del Toro is apparently planning on making a stop motion adaption of it which is everything I could have ever dreamt of. Be sure to read Ishiguro's "Never Let Me Go" while you're at it, absolute masterpiece. Wait, were we talking about Shadow of the Colossus?
wilmot is just like me fr
