Well, Spike and Vash come to mind definitly. After watching Trigun I essentially renounced killing anything, since that whole message made a lot of sense to me, and to this day if I even accidentally kill an ant I feel bad about it, but other then the occasional downer after an insect death I'm actually a lot happier with myself then I ever was before. As for Spike, well, he taught me how to be cool....er, wait, I mean he taught me to finish what I start, and that freedom is the most beautiful thing there is. Yeah, that sounds about right.

Hey,

Even though hes technically a game character, I 'd have to say Alex Noah from Lunar. He showed that even the average guy can accomplsih his dreams (and get a hawt chick) if he persaveers.

Shinji from Evangelion (I do 'The Gendo Pose'™ too)
Spike from Cowboy Bebop
Naota from FLCL
Squall from Final Fantasy VIII

There are a lot that have influenced me. I don't remember all of them.

Spike from Bebop - showed me true style, and to finish things
Shu from NTHT - whatever life throws at your balls, there are always things/people you can count on. And to appreciate little things.

Not much more I can think of, my character was already manifested when I got into Anime years ago...

Keitaro Urashima from Love Hina. More in a sense to be comical and that maybe you can get your dream girl.

K-san from Gravitation and Shigure Souma from Fruits Basket - these guys have a personality type uncommon in anime, and from studying them I learned about writing this personality type, and even gained a little insight into my own personality.
