1. Naruto - He is the main character. I also love his determination and personality being friendly to everyone and not losing hope but always fighting on no matter what, even if it means to end his life. I have also experienced a similar childhood like his.
2. Itachi - I admire him for the struggle he faced all because of his love for his brother and the place he loved the most and promised to protect. Reminds me of the love I have for my little brother and how I will love him the most out of all my family.
3. Madara - I am fond of Madara for being a powerful character and just for expressing power alone. He also has an interesting goal which seemed far-fetched and not likely to become reality. Even after his death, his goal lived on since he's been passing it on to other talented shinobi such as Nagato and Obito.
4. Shisui - For the loyalty and dignity he has expressed for sacrificing himself for the sake of protecting the village. Also for his trustworthiness towards his best friend Itachi. He left the shinobi world without a trace but left his mark through the eyes and their manipulation powers which had benefitted a number of shinobi including Itachi, Danzo and maybe Obito.
5. Hashirama - He carries the 'Will of Fire' which brings shinobi together and fills them with love and respect for each other. I also adore his personality. Mokuton is without a doubt the best Kekkei Genkai and he was the originator. It has benefitted many shinobi including Madara, Yamato, Zetsu, Danzo, Obito, Orochimaru and Kabuto.
