Beautiful female warrior that is not a bitch.

+ if they are single
++ if they don't cling to the protagonist
+ if they are independent
++ Not a victim of a fanservice.

Guys:
No glasses, no pretending to be smart when he is not, no elitism, no pushing over the female leads, no Matsuoka.

Which turns out to be the polar opposite of Aki Tomoya, which is why I dropped the show when I liked all the other parts of it.

Girls:
Cuteness.

Looking at my favorites I realize that I really prefer the quiet, apathetic characters who think more than they talk. Probably because I can relate to them.
Memories may fade, but that doesn't mean there isn't any point in making them.

I usually like either the easygoing characters or the quiet ones. I can relate to both groups.

I don't have a type of character that when I see him/her on screen I said "Oh my god, I love him/her already!", depending of the role, behaviour, execution and design of the character I will like it or not. Badass anti-heroes are cool though.

Characters who seem emotionless and cruel at first but are actually gentle and care about others, and can turn into brutal killing machines in less than two seconds :3

Who knows? I like all kinds. It's not like there's a specific archetype I love or anything like that.

I mean I thought I hated Kuuderes, but then Kanade shows up out of nowhere and pulls on my heartstrings.

Not necessarily personality wise, but I like characters whose death inspires the main character to go on a journey/accomplish something. For instance,

i like the 'i fuck around' or sarcastic type of characters (think Assassin, Shinji, Hans, Ling, etc.)
there isn't any other specific type that i like, it usually depends on the character

have a thing for them too..

OT: it depends, but in general I like more serious and seemingly emotionless
/ uncaring girls. I have no preference, I like them all for their individual traits.

I feel sympathy to male characters too if I feel that I have something in common
with them. Especially if they have good sense of humour and alot of irony.

Male characters:

* TSUNDERE. TSUNDERE. TSUNDERE. I love them more than any other type. XD

*Bad boys and/or "guys with major attitude"

*Goofy dorky klutzes (includes socially inept)

*The-shota-who-looks-young-but-is-super-cool-and-mature

*"I'm amazing. The world should kiss my feet"-type of boys.....because they are normally such dorks. XD

*"I'm tortured and angsty; leave me alone"

Female characters:

*Tsundere lolis

*Most tsundere in general

*The pure yet naive shoujo good girl heroine

*Girls with attitude

*Girls who don't take crap from guys.

*Otaku girls

Quirky and badass types who are cute and kind towards others. The innocent ones and mysterious characters are also ones I tend to love. And I have a big soft spot for tsundere.

For female characters, I find the most interesting ones to be those that are older and have a bit of a mysterious side to them. Such as Touko from Kara no Kyoukai, Yuuko from xxxHOLiC, and Sumire from Black Bullet. Of course there are exceptions.

I haven't got a preference for male characters.

Anyone male or female that trolls the resident tsundere is immediately in my good books. But ok:

Male:
Smart
Silver tongue
Sarcastic
Playful troll
Non-perverted
Doesn't tolerate or enable tsundere BS
FABULOUS

Female:
Funny
Silly
Playful
Assertive with their feelings
Yandere (sometimes)

The only commonality I could find amongst my favourite characters is that they make me laugh. Either because they are stupid, sneaky, perverted, deadpan, a gullible genius, so earnest it hurts or just bonkers.

I love enthusiastic and motivational characters! Which are usually the typical protagonists of a shounen manga, such as Hinata from Haikyuu :p their personalities are so addicting!

I generally enjoy what I call Antichrist Superstars - characters who've been rejected from the world, try to rise above it but can't find a better way to do it. Impmon is the best example.

I also enjoy characters with an obsession that gives them a sense of purpose but also drags them down.

I guess, I'm more drawn to the loners who don't want to title of "hero" forced upon them, but they fit the role perfectly anyway. Who are gentle but also extremely hard when they need to be, like Kirito from SAO. Then again, I also love the guys who are maybe seen as evil, who only live for revenge, or to fight for honor, like Uchiha Sasuke and Vegeta. I love Sasuke more than Naruto. And I also love them both more in Naruto than in Naruto Shippuuden.

Agreed. Though BRS characters look a little different in TV vs OVA.
I guess I like both but TV series more, because of colors and designs.

I still need to watch the OVA but just like Area 88 (I need to watch the 2004 show) I'm afraid to be disapointed. TV Mato Kuroi is just the best human being ever. That look in her eyes when she eats the macarons... :'(

Tsundere or funny for female characters.. as for male characters, i prefer the arrogant ones or the type of character that side with the good guy but isn't exactly a good guy (ex : mukuro from KHR and Rohan from JoJo)

Badass male protagonist that's not a wussyboi who's strong and knows he's strong. I enjoy it a lot when the protagonist flaunts his strength like an antagonist cuz sadly it's not something you see very often :/.

Someone who loves the world and everything in it, yet knows that they can't have it all. Someone who is self-aware of their own strengths and weaknesses, always seeking something to improve themselves or satisfy their worldly desires. Someone who may not know what they want out of life, but still pushes forward everyday, while always taking the time to sit back and reflect upon where they've been and where they'll go, all before getting back up to continue on with the daily tasks. They're characters that, in the average show, would be background characters without any depth.

In their own shows, they still have no depth, because that's the point. They're not special, nor do they have any deep traumas. They're characters who live life day by day, and while they may want more out of life, they're satisfied with what they have.

I like it when the guy says what he's thinking, even if it's an asshole.
And I like when they are very perceptive.

Araragi, Hachiman, Ban, Killua, etc.

For the women, i'm more into a caring kind, with great intelligence and maybe a bit crazy in the head.
I may have a preference for strong ones too.

Albedo, Mikasa, Shinobu, Morgiana, etc.

For female characters: Strong personality, teases MC a lot (don't know why, but this is a huge point for me), long hair, etc.

For male characters: Rudeus Greyrat.
