Anime Characters that resemble me and what makes them similar to me?

I have a number or anime characters that resemble me for one of another reason. Here I would like to list them all and explain why they are like me.


Lelouch vi Brittania - Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion and R2


People who know me might disagree with this one.

However, as Lelouch himself said: "We judge ourselves based on what we think we are capable of doing, while others judge us based on what we have already achieved."

I however do believe that I can rule the world and definitely want to.

There are many things about Lelouch that makes him like me.

We both like philosophical discussions and well as fancy phrases.

Both of us had issues with uni authorities for playing chess during class time.

Both of us got caught up in a family drama and ended up being betrayed by our parents.

Both of us grew resentful of the system and world order that allowed this to happen.

Both used to hold some ideals dear, but eventually abandoned them for the simple idea that with power you can simply force the world to do what you want.

My geass will likely be the same as his, as that is my wish to force people do my will.

Last but not least CC. I wish I had someone like her to help me conquer the world.



And one other important thing. Just like Lelouch hides his true self behind mask and identity of Zero I too hide my true self behind the conceptual mask. I did that ever since I was a child as my family was not very permissive. As I grew older, I had to hide more and more or my real self behind the impregnable poker face to avoid stupid lectures from my parents about it all. They were the kind of parents who would not stop lecturing until I would agree, so I had to pretend I agreed with them to make them shut up.

That habit of always wearing that mask stays with me ever since. Last thing I want is people lecturing me or causing me trouble because of my real views.


Gilgamesh - Fate/Zero

But not Fate/Stay Night

Gilgamesh is my cynical disillusioned mature self.

After I could no longer believe in things such as justice, love, fair go, benevolence of parents and the world in general.

Thus, if I cannot change the world I could at least enjoy whatever few things left, that are still to my liking. This era is unspeakably ugly.

Just like Gilgamesh I love myself and value myself above all else. Just like him I to desire only the finest things in the world.

Also, much like Gilgamesh I protect my freedom and like him I do plot schemes behind the scenes to eventually unleash my revenge in cold blood when it is ready. I am not hot headed to just act on emotions.

Also, I like to speak in fancy expressions.


Ainz Ooal Gown - Overlord



I would like to be as overpowered as he is.

I would also like to be worshiped as god by many followers.

I want them to conquer the world for me, just as denizens of Nazarick do for Ainz.

Also, I like women to be as willing to be a human chair BDSM slaves for me as Shalltear was in that episode in season 2

Some people like to argue that he does not really wants to be Supreme Being, but it is much more ambiguous and open to interpretations.

I want to be a supreme being for sure.

Also, just like Ainz I am the last of my GELI English group who stayed behind when the rest moved on in life.



Lord Ilpalazzo - Excel Saga


Just like Lord Ilpalazzo, I have my ideology that I preach online.

Just like Lord Ilpalazzo I only have two female subordinates who occasionally work hard to advance my cause.

That is a far cry from Black Knights Lelouch could assemble. Then Lelouch had CC and his geass. Ilpalazzo only has dumb Excel and constantly sick Hyatt.

Just like him I wear glasses and can present myself with a majesty befitting the Emperor.

I am as cold, emotionless and cruel as he is.


Killy - Blame

Just like Killy I am loner who looks for my kind of people in a dying world.

Just like people with Net Terminal Gene, the kind of girl I can love is hard to find.

Both Killy and me are extremely self-reliant, socially aloof and prefer to be on my own.

I am also somewhat as resourceful as he is.

Also, I both of us are equally cold blooded and rather emotionless.

Finally both he and I wear all black cloth and carry a number of gadgets on us.

Overall, Killy is like a more mature version of Hei below.


Hei - Lee Shun Sheng - Darker than Black


Hei does not just wear this white mask with a thinderbolt in battle.

He also has a kind of conceptual mask.

With civilians and other uninitiated people, he is just an introverted, aloof and rather meek transfer student from China.

However, a select few know him as Black Grim Reaper. A deadly and very capable contractor with special powers.

That dualism kind of applies to me as well. I too hide my more scary and radical self behind the mask of friendliness and normalness. I think this mask is what most people see me for nowadays.

Also, all black clothes just like Killy and me.



Kouji Aiba - Infinite Ryvius

The kind of me that most of my Russian classmates and parents remember.

Opinionated, disagreeable, but too weak to be able to defend myself against more powerful opponents.

Just like Kouji I am extremely self-protective and try to avoid anything than can cause me pain.

Just like for Kouji it does not always work for me.

Also, both me and Kouji are smart.

We both see things from unusual angle and able to notice things and find solutions others overlook.


Airs Blue - Infinite Ryvius


Kind of Evolved version of Kouji. 

Similarities between two are not apparent as Airs is leader of the thugs and the strongest man on board.

However, Airs' personality much unlike the rest of his crew.

like Kouji and me Airs is very introverted, does not talk much, rather smart and able make good decisions when needed. Has some secret dark past that often makes him do things the way he does.

Also, when Heiger managed to overthrow rule of Airs' thugs. Airs, unlike the rest of the crew who were all caught and incarcerated, Airs managed to escape, hid on the ship, and managed to elude all attempts to catch him despite best efforts of many people on board.

Also, as far as I can remember, Airs was always kind to Kouji, unlike many others. Kouji in turn helped him out when he was hiding.



Kaiji - Gyakkyou Burai Kaiji 

However not the second season: Heiporohi-hen
Just like Kaiji I am skeptical of mafia and such.

However just like Kaiji I do want to win big in life and enjoy myself to the fullest.

Just like Kaiji got burned by trusting Furuhata and Andou, I got burned by trsting my dad and brother.

Just like Kaiji I sometimes can pull out some original ideas and find unconventional solutions to problems. Just as invisible as that transparent stairway.

Just like Kaiji I sometimes get overconfident and get burned. That in turn reinforces tendency to be overly cautious at most times.

Second season Kaiji on the other hand is nothing like me at all.


Takasugi Shinsuke - Gintama


The most radical of the Gintama 4 swordsmen.

The most introverted and less known of them as well.

When he was a kid, just like me he was the least visible and was the most self-protective.



Various hardships in life radicalized me just like it did him.

Now both of us want to see this cruel world burn to ash.

I do plan to build my utopia on its ashes, not sure about Takasugi.


Okita Sougo - Gintama


We both like grand fancy titles. I call myself Emperor of the Universe and he calls himself Kaiser of Shinsengumi Okita de Sade Sougo.

Also, we both are sadists and have the same idea on how women should be treated.

However, I am not as much of a troll as he is.




Space Captain Herlock - Space Captain Herlock


The kind of pirate captain I can relate to.

Strong, silent type. He does not talk much and everything he says is for reason.

The original Emo, before Emo even existed.

He fights for freedom against global government, however not in the way that would make US conservatives praise him.

He calls he Jolly Rojer, 'Flag of Freedom"

He is an introverted loner who is a very capable in every regard individual. He leads a essentric but capable crew of fellow outcasts who all crave freedom.

He has penchant for philosophical and existentialist thoughts.

He refuses call for action even when informed that Universe will be destroyed otherwise. Because no one tells him what to do. Then ends up saving the Universe anyhow.

He runs the ship from a literal throne. 

Finally, he has a cute alien woman as his lover. She is my kind of sexy and she even plays harp.

The only thing that makes him differ from me is that he seems against hedonism, and I am in favor. Though it does not seem to me that he is as against hedonism as narrator says.



Nagato - Pain - Naruto: Shippuden

With exception of when he was resurrected by Kabuto, they really messed up his character then.

Nagato and I have a lot in common. Perhaps even more than other characters.

Both he and I are the same kind of introverted and vindicative.

Both he and me has rare abilities that other people want. 

His parents were killed when he was little. May be my real parents too were killed or I was separated from them by some conspiracy. 

Most people treated Nagato poorly when he was a kid and he ended up sticking with few people who were nice to him, Yahiko and Konan. That was the same for me.

A conspiracy against them by Danzo and Hanzo, who end up killing Yahiko and significantly damaged Akatsuki as whole. This made Nagato disillusioned with humanity and convinced him to do everything he can to change the world. 

I too want to change the world.

"World shall know pain." - I will add that I will make all these other people suffer as a retaliation for shit I had to go through. Especially people who directly caused me pain, like my parents and school bullies who hurt and insulted me. They all should pay for it with their lives.



Kazuya Saotome - Hand Maid May


We both like computers, technology, robo-waifus and maids.

He ends up with harem of many cute robo-waifus. I want a harem like this.

He is also well mannered and polite just like I am most of the time.

He is also very proficient with both computer hardware and software, just like me.

He is also somewhat aloof and oblivious to people's feelings, just like me.

And finally, his birthday is in middle October. 


Duke Fleed - UFO Robo Grendizer


Duke was the protagonist of the very first anime I watched.

They showed Grendizer in Russia on 2x2 in middle 90s

Duke heavily inspired me back in the days and I very much wanted to be like him.

He was flawless being, piloted awesome mech and was universally respected, admired and supported by everyone.

He also was very capable of defeating every monster Vegans would send to conquer earth.

Nowadays I still hold Duke in high regard, even though nowadays there are more differences between us.

However, some of the traits are still common between us. Like my perfectionism was perhaps inspired by his flawlessness.


Toono Takaki - 5cm per Second


I share his sentimentality and attachment to things of the past that once made me happy.

I am as introverted and mysterious and attract various women with these traits.

I am also as stubborn and strong willed as he is.

Yes, I like Akari a lot, she definitely a waifu material.


Jose Crose - Guise-san - Gunslinger Girl




I guess I am about as calm as he is. 

I too can calmly talk for ages about various topics.

Though I do not remember him all too well as I watched Gunslinger Girl too long ago.
