8. Cynthia - Pokemon You like her because she’s hot. I like her because her interactions in the story made me see the world building as what it is and it being cool rather than “haha funny monsters fighting” Okay, maybe her being hot helps.

9. Kanji Tatsumi - Persona 4 Wish I had a homie like him in my day to day. His character arc’s one of my favorite in a game where I’m hard pressed to choose one. Honestly I was spending all afternoon thinking which Persona party member I wanted to put on here, hard choice.
