My Favorite Character from each of my Favorite Anime
Hi! I’ve done a few separate posts about my top 10 anime and my favorite anime characters, but I decided I’d combine those ideas into one post and try and pick out my favorite character from each of my favorite anime. This is going to be hard because I know I have multiple favorites for most of these, but I will do my best. Let’s go!
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood- Hohenheim
I usually cycle between Ed, Hohenheim, and Mustang being my favorite character, but recently it’s been Hohenheim. I think he’s both under appreciated and misunderstood by the FMAB fandom. Long story short, I love characters riddled with guilt (not sure what this says about me lol). If you’re interested, I’ve already written a whole post about how much I love him!
Revolutionary Girl Utena- Utena
I always shift between Utena and Anthy being my favorite, but I really have loved Utena from the start. I find it very compelling how she hides her internal anguish behind her cheerful, positive persona.
Toradora- Taiga
I’ve already written so much about Taiga (in this post, spoilers) so there’s not much else to say besides that I’m the number 1 Taiga defender. I love her, she reminds me of myself in some ways, she’s great. I think she’s the perfect example of a ‘flawed’ protagonist.
Chihayafuru- Chihaya
Chihaya is such a ray of sunshine, comic relief, and a total fuck up, and yet she is an incredible karuta prodigy and the protagonist of the show. She is also one of the most realistic neurodivergent-coded characters I’ve ever seen. I think it’s fun how she defies expectations as well; she has the appearance of a beautiful cool model, but as soon as other characters talk to her they realize how much of a nerd she is.
March Comes in like a Lion- Hina
There are a lot of sub-plots and semi-important characters in this show, but the side character that I was always the most interested in was Hina. I think the way she is so open about her emotions is inspiring, and as she goes through hardships it’s nice to see how she matures while also maintaining her cheerful attitude.
Your Lie in April- Tsubaki
I haven’t watched this anime in a long time, but I do know that when I first watched it my favorite character was Tsubaki for sure. Her unrequited love plot line was heart wrenching and compelling.
Love is War- Ishigami
I also cycle between a few favorite characters in Love is War (I adore both Shirogane and Kaguya of course) but at this point in the story in the anime, Ishigami is my favorite. I think he is such a realistic portrayal of an insecure, awkward teen, and I love how noble and selfless he is behind the scenes.
Haikyuu- Kageyama
What else is there to say, truly? I loved Kageyama the second he was introduced. His dynamic with Hinata is what makes the show, and his stubborn, cold personality is something I tend to be drawn to when it comes to my favorite kinds of characters.
Madoka Magica- Homura
Sayaka is a really really close second, but after finishing the series for the first time I couldn’t get Homura’s story out of my head. Her determination and willpower are honestly unmatched, and each new watch of the show makes me appreciate her more.
Monster- Dieter
I feel like Dieter may seem like an odd choice for a favorite; as you may expect, Tenma (many people’s favorite I’d assume) is probably a close second for me. But I think I liked Dieter so much because he was proof that love and support are capable of saving even the most traumatized individual. He was so cute and I loved how much he loved Tenma.
If you made it through this whole thing, thanks for reading! Also, I highly recommend watching all of these, I’ve linked my spoiler free reviews in the titles if you haven’t watched them and are interested in finding out more.
Thanks for reading!

Is it too soon to ask for shisui x kaguya hcs? Cause I’m absolutely invested now
Tw: obsessive, manipulative behavior, and just unhealthiness
Some thoughts on this ship for this au of how it would all start 🤡
So to start, they’d meet at a private auction
This beautiful woman he’d never seen before who seemed so otherworldly
Biding on the same painting as him and letting out a small huff when he won
Something about her made him want give her a hard time
So he bid on the next time she bid on, driving the price up again again
Never outbidding her
just because he thought the way she glared at him was cute.
He almost completely forgot about that night until he came to place an order with Hinata and the ethereal being was sitting there all pretty enjoying her tea until she saw him
Kaguya could not believe this asshole from the auction was leaning on her chair like a slutty manwhore asking if she’s friends with Hina.
He did smell wonderful though, she’d give him that💀
One look at Hinata and she knew her suspicions were spot on; this man was one of her “associates” and massive trouble
So she did what any self respecting woman of class would do and tell him to mind his manners and wait his turn.
Which just made Shisui more intrigued with who this mysterious nougat was.
Just as she was leaving he handed her his business card, just in case she was looking for anything real estate in the near vicinity.
She reluctantly took it and continued on with her life; struggling to find anything worth investing in and declining obvious attempts at dates with senior citizens at the private athletic clubs
It wasn’t until she was playing racket ball with Toneri that the topic of real estate investments came up that she remembered she had the business card of a very attractive young “real-estate agent”
When she went to look at the apartment he was selling, she was amazed with how everything was staged
Impressed even, he had a great brand of wine poured for her, the lighting was great, everything was nice until she saw the painting he outbid her for
“I thought this would help sweeten the deal, princess”
She was OFFENDED. Never in her life had she had someone so blatantly messing with her so flippantly, even when it could come to a financial loss for themselves
Shisui was humored by her berating him. Honestly, just the reaction he expected from a spoiled heir to the Ōtsutsuki
“Someone’s mad~”
Were the last words he managed to say before she kissed him, presumably to shut him up.
Before either of them knew it, they were fucking in the living room underneath that damn painting
A shameful shaky walk back to her waiting vehicle; Kaguya really wasn’t proud of herself for not only hate-fucking this man she barely knew, but for enjoying it so much💀
Shisui on the other hand, was very proud of himself for always carrying a condom. They seemed very compatible, sexually at least~
He did feel a bit like a dick for teasing her so much, but didn’t have any real regrets.
Her threatening text about suing him if he spoke a word of this to anyone, also made him smile as he admired the scratch work she left on his chest and arms.
All his sloothing pointed to her being a single hardworking woman and in a long dry spell, so he wasn’t surprised that she had some pent up frustration 😏
More time goes by and they have a few run ins with each other
With Shisui giving her pleasant greetings and compliments
And Kaguya ignoring him and the rapid beating of her heart at the sight of him/the glorious memories of him on top of her in that apartment
Kaguya was unknowingly fanning the flames of desire in him with each meeting
It all came to a head at one of Hinata’s yacht parties when Shisui had his men lock them a room together for a date
“You do know I can have you arrested for false imprisonment?”
“Do you honestly think I’m scared of prison?” “I just want to thank you for the good time, maybe get to know you better”
Kaguya knew she wasn’t getting out of this “date” easily and decided to sit and see what this bastard had to say
Admittedly, she wasn’t hearing much over her own thoughts of escaping. She only focused back into what was being said when he asked why she never returned his messages.
He thought they had a lot of chemistry and had been thinking about her a lot lately
Kaguya simply shrugged. The truth was she didn’t have a good reason, she wa
“Why are you so interested in me? Is Madara looking for some sort of financial assistance?”
Oh
So she knows who his adoptive father is, yet she’s still so bold?
Yeah, he’s obessed.
Smiling to himself, he and simply leave. telling her she’s free to enjoy the food and to enjoy the rest of the night
Leaving Kaguya to contemplate what just happened
And even more confused when her favorite flowers and imported chocolates started being delivered to her weekly from Mr. Uchiha himself
Now she had to wonder how he knew all this and the thought of it sent shivers down her spine
After about 2 months of this, Shisui called her and asked to go out on a date, properly this time
She really can’t answer why she went on the date; morbid curiosity and lust were at the top of what she could gather for a reason
And of course the date was at one of the best rooftop restaurants around with an amazing view, which led them to being in luxury suite in hotel going at it all night
He’d planned for the evening to go just as it did, but he wasn’t planning on being hung up on everything she did.
Kaguya snapped back with she doesn’t want to go on a date with a man that’s sharing his dick with the world and has a barely legal little redhead friend. Yeah she did some research on you too, pal
Now this would make Shisui’s sweet smile turn mischievous. “So you want me all to yourself?”
“I don’t even think that’s even possible, Shisui”
“Give me a trial run and find out~”
And with that, Against Kaguya’s better judgment, this trail run would officially start
But kaguya isnt one to just accept Shisui’s manipulation attempts. Their meet ups were to only take place in neutral territory
She also found the damn tracker he’d put on her car at some point. It became obvious that there might be one with all their “chance” meets
She put the tracker on a pizza delivery vehicle and tipped the kid a hefty check of a years salary to make up for the job they’d no doubt lose driving all over town to teach her obsessed lover a lesson
Making sure to turn of the shared location feature he’d asked her not to and poured herself some wine to enjoy by her pool
Shisui was worried when he saw how active she was being driving all around and livid when he sees it’s some kid
Does she know what she’s doing to him!?
When he finally does come to her home, she’s sitting and ask if he enjoyed his little excursion. He in fact, did not.
He’d try to warn her about her behavior, but she’d warn him not to test her. He may not be afraid of jail, but she’s not afraid of him or his little family
If he wants her to believe his word and trust him be faithful, he needs to show he can be trusted to not pull this stunt again or they’re done
Shisui would sigh and think about her words. He trusts her, but the tracker was more for her own safety or so he’d tell himself
Of course he can’t stop his behavior cold, so he’d compromise; no tracker, but he’ll still “check up” on her
And inconvenience and threaten the lives of the other people that are obviously into his girl
It’s totally normal for a boyfriend to worry about his girlfriend
And it wouldn’t take Kaguya long to figure out why normally overly friendly business associates have all but turned into statues during meetings. Shisui 🫠
She would be 50/50 on if she wanted to end their trail relationship until she witnessed him thanking one of his low income tenants for the meal they’d made him as a thank you
At first she was appalled because she assumed he was whoring again the lady may have been older, but she was naturally beautiful and mature and something about that made her jealous 😤
And this made Kaguya come up to the pair and ask Shisui who his lovely friend was. Exchanging pleasantries with the woman despite wanting to ask what’s really going on
Shisui’s knowing smirk about her attitude on the way up the elevator would only infuriate her more
Just when she’d be ready to explode, he’d tell her that that tenant has a wife and those two a very happily married. “You see, she was doing alright in life until she wasn’t. Her wife got injured on the job, ran into one scammer, and that’s how they end up as my tenants. She just happens to know where I live as her brother is the doorman.”
She was still a skeptical until he told her they can probably go over their for dinner if she wanted to. It just reminded her that he’s got a pretty good heart deep down.
At the same time Shisui would be reminded that although she’s tough enough around the edges, she’s still pretty soft and vulnerable if he squints
Gotta love that and her sheepishly asking if maybe she rude to that woman/should she apologize
It’s moments like that that would make the Kaguya fall in love a little more each time despite some of his concerning behavior
While simultaneously making Shisui feel like she’s getting to him more than he’d thought previously possible
Most of his past lovers were genuinely scared of him, airheads, didn’t care who he slept with, easy to manipulate, or lead lives he couldn’t help but want to change if things were to become serious. Kaguya pushing back is refreshing
Her not being impressed with material gifts that are thoughtless, made him work harder to impress her
He was overwhelmed with happiness when he woke up to her sleeping face the first time
A dangerous feeling, but a manageable one in his penthouse if only she stayed
His mouth dropped open when she agreed to move in. Working remotely isn’t a problem for Kaguya and the commute to her office isn’t horrible either, so why not?
She’s never lived with someone else or liked anyone enough to consider it
Her only two conditions are she gets her own room and, if she’s working, he doesn’t disturb her
His only rule is don’t ask questions she doesn’t want to know the answer to. He lives a life that wouldn’t want to know all the details of and probably shouldn’t. He’d never lie to her, but she’ll have to live with the information she receives
Other than that, he’s finally caught his pretty little bird and she’s safe in her cage
