Nagasegawa Taizo from Gintama. Definitely.
He seemed to be defiant through out those arduous circumstances, her soul did not bend even if any hard pressure was acted on. I had an empathy of his hapless suffering,ever since that meeting with Gintoki. And more than one times in watching Gintama I had yelled :"Cool bro!" to Taizo. I sometimes even pondered to make a novel of his life and how determined and unalterred his soul and moral. But that son-of-a-bitch Sorachi won't take shit seriously and keeps turning Gintama from a sad story to a extremely unequalized story.(Overlooking of certain characters like Shinpachi, illogical examples, etc.)
Today's animes is all shit anyways, no real lessons, no life-changing value. All intense actions set to be money grabbers like the abomination "New Moon". A waste of time to watch them. The intense desire of lust and greedhad completely alterred anime from a nice form of art into some type of perverse shit that had connection to "echhi" "harem", etc.
That's why I have been trying so hard to rectify manga realm and I have been learning to draw anime. Someday I can come up with my concept of manga that somehow is life-changing, emotional, educating. Its script itself is something that can viewed as educating literature. Not just action and harem shit.
