Since I have too many favorite characters, I will put them here:
Itachi, Naruto, Sasuke, Shikamaru, Gaara, Rock Lee, Orochimaru, Minato, Hashirama, Madara, Tobi, Kimimaro, Hidan, Kakashi, Jiraiya, Haku, Neji, Tsunade, Sakura, Temari, Konan, Anko.
I used to like Hinata but now she's like this typical manga shy girl, I guess I still do, maybe a bit, like her because of the things she's done for Naruto, but I wouldn't say she's one of my favorite characters.
I love the fact that Sakura grew so much within the series, out of this annoying little fan-girl she was, and that us females can really relate to her. Her anger, her thoughts, her concerns, I don't know about you, but I can definitely relate to her.
Yes, I love Orochimaru. He's sexy to me, reminds me of this guitarist. I love how he still wants Sasuke's body, it's humorous.
All the other female characters I listed are totally kickass, they're just as strong as the male characters.
I have a personal connection with the relationship that Itachi and Sasuke share, except no one is really dead here.
Rock Lee and Gaara are adorable! And Hashirama and Madara, they were so cute when they were younger...I miss them.
I love the happy-go-lucky idiot Tobi. I also loved younger Obito.
Kimimaro and Hidan are so unique to me.
