Hiruzen Sarutobi is just amazing.
He was the first to recognize Naruto and in so many parts he shows that he is a really humane character, helping Iruka, Sasuke when they are in need. Even after his death we find out some much great things about him, that make the story what it is.
He was the only one to protect Sasuke when all the other elders wanted to kill him along with the rest of the Uchiha's, and he promised Itachi the he would never be harmed.
Plus, he was the teacher of the great three Sannin, has an enormous arsenal of awesome jutsus.
In my opinion, the Sarutobi vs Orochimaru fight was the best i have ever seen. Even if at the end he dies, he was already 69 years-old and he puts up one hell of a fight against a Sannin, the First and the Second Hokages and wins, by giving his own life to protect Konoha.
You get to see three Hokages fighting each other! How can you say it isn't the coolest fight? And the part where he takes of his Hokage clothes, wearing a cool armor! It was just breathtaking. After seeing this fight, I knew he was my favourite character.
He is the perfect example of the "Will of Fire".
