Who is the greatest Anime Hero of all time?
I'm going with Fist of the North Star's Kenshiro.
No Super powers, No Chakra no inverse sword no angel arm, just the ability to use pressure points to make heads explode in order to protect the weak.

The second Tekkamans hero (not the really crappy 1at one or the new one). He's the greatest amensia hero ever.

Another vote for Kenshiro, though his abilities are pretty super, in my mind. I just love the ironic ways he finds to kill bad guys...and when he goes into a steroid rage, ripping his clothes apart, I crack up without fail.
As for non-action series, my personal favorite character is Tatsuya Uesugi from Touch, my favorite series of all time, on any format.

Why, Nabeshin, of course! The only hero awesome enough to appear in multiple series (Excel Saga, and Puni Puni Poemi).
In all seriousness, though, my vote goes to Vash the Stampede.

I like characters that die or almost die and then become awesome. So I would haft to choose ether Yusuke Yurimeshi from YuYu Hakusho Grave from Gungrave or the Major from Ghost in the Shell. Sorry can't decide I love them all so much.

You know, it isn't often we agree but with this one I have to cheer you on! Kenshiro is less a man, more a god Also: Tough Boy may be the most hilarious animé theme song ever

I thought this would be an easy question, but then I found out it wasn't. Here are my nominees:
Astro Boy Blackjack Chojin Locke Ranma Saotome Tetsuro (from Galaxy Express 999) Captain Harlock Pai or Yakumo (3x3 Eyes) Iria
And I'll probably think of twenty more after pressing "Post Reply..."

I also gotta give it to Vash and Kenshin on the base that both belive that you can resolve things without having to kill someone, which is admerable.
I'll tell you who isn't a great hero, that Whiny bitch Shinji Ikari.

I'll have to put in a vote for Vash. Complete bad ass, total dork, pacifist, dead on gun fighter, and being relatively pure of heart with some potential to go crazy underneath. In short, he's very well rounded and has a nice mix of everything.
His defining moment: Aboard the flying ship when he's trying to get down to the plant room of the flying ship by blasting through the floor, being both complete bad ass and an idiot about it all at once.

Gatsu easily. Vash is kewl, as are Kenshiro, Lupin and Vash. Alucard is quite awesome as well. See also: Roger Smith, Alita and Blackjack.
All of those characters are better fleshed out in their respective Mangas though. And I've yet to see the JoJo Anime, so I can't name that. And oh, Guyver rocks!
