I've actually done this before, but I'm really off my rocker and doing it again. For some reason.
Please throw anything at me! I would LOVE to talk about characters endlessly.
Pick a fictional character from a fandom I know and I'll answer the following questions to the best of my abilities:
1) What is your opinion of this character? If you like, explain why you like him/her. Likewise if you dislike the character.
2) Is he/she important to the general plot?
3) Can you relate to this character at all? Do they grip you emotionally?
4) How much do you like the fandom that this character comes from?
5) Do you ship this character with any other character? Or, are you particularly intrigued by their relationship with any other character(s)? (romance-wise or platonic)
6) Is there anything about the character you would change?
7) If you were in the fandom with this character or knew this character in real life, how do you see yourself interacting with him/her? (Would you get along well? Fall in love with? Dislike? Friendly rivalry? etc etc)
8) Does this character make the cut as one of your all time favorites (if you like) or least favorites?
9) Would you hype up this character (if you like) or warn about (if you dislike) to someone whose new to the fandom?
10) Is this character popular with the fanbase?

ALRIGHT WE WILL GO WITH GAI FIRST
1) What is your opinion of this character? If you like, explain why you like him/her. Likewise if you dislike the character.
AWJEKLJAWEKLAKWEKWAEWAE I love him. LOVE LOVE LOVE him absolutely adore. How he ended up so happy in such a fucked up generation I do not understand, but dear gosh he is just the cutest most SELF RESPONSIBLE person ever. He's just ... so much about living life how YOU want to live it, and doing what YOU want to do. Wearing what you want to wear! Earning your OWN self respect and approval! And you know what? He somehow appeals to me (and Lee, of course!) a thousand times more than Naruto does because unlike Naruto, Gai doesn't magically win everyone over, charm everyone he comes across, isn't always right, the show's morals aren't really directed on whether or not he can relate to a bad guy, and he never gives people magical 'convert to good' punches. Therefore, he's more real to me, because the whole 'do what you want to do' lesson in life isn't nearly as endearing when everyone in society magically loves you for breaking its rules :|
2) Is he/she important to the general plot?
lolno.
3) Can you relate to this character at all? Do they grip you emotionally?
I relate to Lee more, honestly. Nothing's really known about Gai's past and he's too much win and confidence for me to relate to him, so instead I relate to the adorable insecure-but-trying-to-blossom Lee that worships Gai's every step. Because uh. That's what I do. Yes Gai grips me emotionally.
